Page 30: Functioning Of The Automatic Calf Feeder
Functioning of the Automatic Calf Feeder 6 Functioning of the Automatic Calf Feeder 6.1 Preparing the Milk Portions The warm water is taken from the boiler of the heat exchanger. The milk pump delivers the milk through the stainless steel coil of the heat exchanger into the mixer jar. The circulation pump (not available on model TAK5- -SM2- -27- -F1) keeps the warm boiler water moving at high speed causing a rapid heat transfer to the liquid inside the stainless steel coil.
