Ammonia Sensor for Poultry

Ammonia is one of the most common causes of low animal welfare in chicken farms. It is also a major cause of respiratory problems, sores on feet and breasts as well as lower gain.

What is Ammonia?

Ammonia is a chemical compound between the elements nitrogen (N) and hydrogen (H), and has the formula NH3. The substance is found everywhere in nature and occurs naturally in manure and urine.

The smell of ammonia is known, among other things, from the pungent smell of manure or in the environment of a chicken farm.

Ammonia is formed in humans and animals by the breakdown of proteins (albumin) from the diet, or in connection with the ongoing remodeling of all tissues in the body. A part is also formed in the intestine from the breakdown of proteins and other nitrogenous compounds by bacteria.

Ammonia in Poultry Houses

In poultry houses ammonia is a byproducts of manure. When nitrogen compounds are decomposed the result is formation of ammonia (NH3+) and ammonium (NH4-). Ammonia is lighter than air and therefor it floats into the air causing respiration problems and bad smell. Ammonia formation is nurtured by low pH in the litter, high temperatures, and high humidity inside the poultry house.

农业的硬化设计

我们的传感器专为承受农业的恶劣环境而设计。因此，我们所有的电容式和气候传感器都是：

• 坚固
• 准确
• 专为终身使用而设计

在此处阅读有关我们不同传感器的更多信息。

确保农业的耐久性和效率

当今的农业远不只是简单的农作物种植和牲畜饲养，它是一个高科技行业，精度和效率是关键。这种现代方法的核心是各种类型的传感器，它们有助于监测从土壤湿度和温度到作物健康和牲畜状况的所有方面。但是，恶劣的农业环境条件要求这些传感器不仅精确，而且非常耐用。这就是农业传感器强化设计的概念发挥作用的地方。

什么是强化设计？

硬化设计是指使设备足够坚固，能够承受恶劣的使用环境的过程。对于农用传感器而言，这意味着确保它们能够承受极端的环境条件，抵御水和灰尘，并能应对二氧化碳和氨气（氨气）等气体的暴露。目标是创建能够在各种具有挑战性的条件下提供可靠数据的传感器，而不会步履蹒跚。

加强生物安全措施，保护您的鸟类免受禽流感侵害

禽流感，也称为禽流感，是一种病毒感染，可以严重影响家禽养殖场和其他鸟类种群。实施强有力的生物安全措施对于保护您的鸟类免受这种疾病的侵害至关重要。这是一份关于如何加强生物安全实践的综合指南。

保持最佳环境

为鸟类创造和维持最佳环境是防止禽流感传播的关键因素之一。这包括调节家禽舍内的温度、湿度、二氧化碳水平和氨水平。理想的环境不仅可以使您的鸟类保持健康和无压力，还可以降低病毒感染扎根的可能性。

最佳的照明计划也可以使您的鸟类免受压力，并确保更好的动物福利。
