Flow Rates
• High and low flow rate nipples refer to the quantity of water supplied
• Low flow nipples are usually used in cages (40-50 cubic cm/minute)
• High flow are used in the floor system (80-90 cubic cm/minute)
Action
• There are two styles of action: up/down (vertical nipples) or 360° multidirectional
• Vertical nipples (up/down) is usually used for adult birds (layer-breeder) – Vertical nipple are not recommended for chicks
• 360° multidirectional are usually used from chicks till the end of for broiler or (rearing layer and breeder)
Installation
• The nipples and nipple cups require a low pressure system to operate. They will not operate when connected into a direct mains pressurised water system.
• Nipples can be screwed into a hose line, T piece (as below) or as replacement nipples in nipple water cup.
• We recommend the use of the below Water Tanks to establish your in line system
• The extensions are used to vary the position of the nipples or the nipple water cups
• In one pen you may require some to be placed low for the chickens and some to be placed higher for their parents or larger fowl
Quality
• All nipples are manufactured by Lubing™ Germany
• Each of the Lubing™ Nipples are individually factory tested to ensure 100% quality standards
