Application of Carbon Dioxide Gas Detectors in Farms
For example, cattle, pigs, chickens, etc. are all raised in closed or semi closed enclosures because the number and density of livestock and poultry raised are large, and these animals will exhale a large amount of air
If it is too high, animals will suffer from hypoxia, listlessness, fatigue, loss of appetite, slow weight gain, and high incidence rate. Meanwhile, poor air circulation can easily lead to the outbreak and spread of diseases. For example, poor ventilation in pigsty can lead to a series of problems such as weakened immunity, decreased feed conversion rate, and respiratory infectious diseases. In recent years, the infection of Mycoplasma suis pneumonia (MPS), porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS), swine atrophic rhinitis, porcine contagious pleuropneumonia (APP), porcine pseudorabies, swine influenza, porcine circovirus (PCV2) and other diseases has increased the incidence rate of porcine respiratory system and aggravated the harm. Difficult to control after onset of illness; The incidence rate is generally 40-50%, and the mortality is 5-30%. However, if the ventilation is too fast and the wind speed is too high in winter, it will also take away the heat inside the pigsty, causing a decrease in room temperature, an increase in pig basal metabolism, and a slowdown in growth; In addition, the ventilation in the pigsty is too fast, and the sudden changes in temperature inside the pigsty can also make the pigs feel uncomfortable. According to relevant professional data, it has been confirmed that poor ventilation causes economic losses, and poor ventilation in pig pens increases feeding costs by 10% to 20%.
So the detection of carbon dioxide concentration, temperature, and ventilation rate in the breeding enclosure is very important. Installing a carbon dioxide gas detector and temperature monitor in the breeding house and connecting them to the fan can monitor the above data at any time. When the concentration of carbon dioxide exceeds the standard, the monitoring device will sound an alarm and start the fan to automatically replace fresh air; Simultaneously monitor the temperature and ventilation rate of the enclosure at any time.
