3.6.2 Milk Connection
Convey the milk from the milk storage tank straight to the automatic calf feeder. In case
long pipes are inevitable, use bigger diameters.
Air- -containing pipes, very long and thin, as well as thin- -walled pipes being prone to con-
tract, lead to untimely switching- -off or change- -over of the system.
Should the milk pipe be made of several sections, make sure that the connections - - both at
the milk tank and the automatic feeder - - are reliably leakproof.
For hygienic reasons, avoid gross differences of diameter. Only use couplings and joining
pieces easy to clean.
When the automatic calf feeder only runs in the water mode, close the milk connection
by means of a blind plug (part of the delivery).
Water and Milk Connection
To avoid air bubbles, do not hang the milk hose into the milk tank from above but install
connection for milk pipe at the bottom of the milk tank.
