Introduction Egebjerg Master Chain is a modern dry feed dispenser system developed to transport animal meal or pelleted feed with a diameter of up to 5 mm and a length of 10 mm from a silo to a number of feeding locations in the pig barn.
There is a great risk of being injured if the system starts up by mistake. Mounting and repairs of electric installations only to be performed by a trained electrician. 09-11-2018 · ACO FUNKI · Tlf. 97119600 · www.acofunki.com Page 4...
Feeding systems using plastic feed dispensers must have free space of 15 centimetres from the underside of the feed pipe to ceiling, rafter or similar to make room for installation of wire and fittings for central opening. Page 5 09-11-2018 · ACO FUNKI · Tlf. 97119600 · www.acofunki.com...

Considering the load and operating reliability of the system, we recommend the feed quantity to be set so that the feed pipe is approximately half full. The feed pipe must never be more than two thirds full. Rotating direction Dosing Gate 09-11-2018 · ACO FUNKI · Tlf. 97119600 · www.acofunki.com Page 8...
If the feed pipes are lead from a warm pig barn outdoors or through a non-insulated room, we recommend the pipes to be isolated through the cold area to prevent the feed from coating inside the pipes as a result of condensation. Page 9 09-11-2018 · ACO FUNKI · Tlf. 97119600 · www.acofunki.com...
Mount the top cap of the feed outlet on top of the feed pipe, then tighten the feed outlet using a Parker’s screwdriver. Note! Always tighten using a hand-held screwdriver, allowing the gate to move freely back and forth.
