In broiler production, managing environmental conditions is pivotal for both animal welfare and operational profitability. The innovative DOL 53 ammonia sensor is transforming how poultry farmers monitor air quality in their barns. Ammonia, a noxious byproduct of manure decomposition, can lead to significant health problems for birds such as respiratory issues and severe sores, ultimately affecting growth rates and reducing farm profits.

Studies indicate that even minimal ammonia exposure – levels as low as 25 ppm – can reduce broiler weight by up to 7%, translating to a potential loss exceeding 4,000 CAD per batch in barns housing 25,000 broilers. The DOL 53 sensor offers a critical advantage by providing continuous, accurate ammonia level readings, which is essential for maintaining optimal barn conditions and preventing these losses.
