Intensive livestock farming

The control of ventilation systems in intensive livestock farming plays a vital role in the optimization of animal wellbeing, increasing the efficiency of energy use with direct effects on the business and improving thework environment for employees.

Chickens, pigs, cows, and rabbits are the most common animals raised intensively and all animal species require different types of ventilation, including on the basis of the climate and type of livestock farm.

The“yield” of the animals in livestock farms depends directly on the quality of the various ambient components such as temperature and air quality, humidity, dust levels, artificial light, polluting gases, etc.

Stress from heat and temperature surges can have detrimental effects on health and give rise to drops in performance in terms of kilo/meat yield or the production of milk or eggs, to the extent of causing growth stress or a reduction in fertility in reproducing animals.

Selpro control solutions for ventilation systems in intensive livestock farming facilities allow customers to manage the micro climate, and if there are problems with the forced ventilation, to automatically start up the active and passive emergency systems to ensure survival of the animals.

The Selpro systems manage fan motor speed, maintaining optimal values along with the various applicable parameterssuch as temperature, humidity levels and air flow.

One of the greatest advantages is definitely the reduction in energy consumption with elimination of power surges. Other benefits include noise reduction in the ventilation systems in livestock areas and an increase in the mechanical and electrical life of the machines that manage the dynamic ventilation system.

Selpro solutions ensure optimal ventilation to maintain adequate ambient conditions, improve air quality and reduce the emissions of poisonous gases.

Theadvanced automation and real time monitoring of the ambient conditions also ensure maximum control and wellbeing of the animals, contributing to economic sustainability due to a reduction in the operating costs.

As a separate activity to providing ventilation systems to livestock farmsin which Selpro provides control instruments and solutions, it also provides a high-end consultation service to companies and installers in the role of a strategic partner to all effects.
