Product Overview

The JUMBO-98 Bell Drinker is an automatic open-water poultry drinker developed primarily for heavy turkey production. Its compact suspended structure combines a deep circular drinking rim with a low-pressure automatic valve to provide reliable access to fresh drinking water throughout the growing and finishing period.

Professional JUMBO-98 configurations are particularly suitable for turkeys from approximately 2 kg to 25 kg live weight. The relatively high rim helps accommodate larger birds while the controlled water flow minimizes unnecessary splash-over and supports dry-litter management.

The drinker is suitable for environmentally controlled turkey houses, conventional poultry buildings and steel structure farm projects. Water-supply arrangement, drinker quantity, suspension height and line layout can be configured according to flock size, house dimensions and local operating conditions.

Key Features
  • Designed for Heavy Turkeys: Suitable for growing and finishing turkeys with higher drinking requirements.
  • Automatic Water Refill: Mechanical valve maintains the required drinking-water level without repeated manual filling.
  • Deep Circular Drinking Rim: Provides convenient access for larger birds around the complete circumference.
  • Low-Pressure Operation: Designed for regulated poultry water systems operating at relatively low pressure.
  • Controlled Water Flow: A narrow water stream along the bell helps reduce splash-over and unnecessary water loss.
  • Dry-Litter Support: Reduced spillage helps limit excessive moisture and ammonia development in poultry houses.
  • Suspended Installation: Keeps the unit stable and allows drinking height to be adjusted according to bird growth.
  • Compact Structure: Smaller diameter compared with larger turkey bell drinkers allows practical placement in commercial houses.
  • Durable Plastic Construction: Resistant to corrosion and suitable for humid poultry-house environments.
  • Easy Cleaning: Smooth plastic surfaces and open drinking rim simplify routine sanitation.
  • Flexible Water Supply: Compatible with pressure reducers or properly designed elevated header-tank systems.
  • Project Integration: Can be supplied as part of a complete poultry drinking-water distribution system.

Working Principle

The JUMBO-98 is connected to a regulated poultry water-supply line through a flexible hose. Water enters the upper valve assembly and flows down into the circular drinking rim.

As turkeys consume water, the operating mechanism allows fresh water to enter the drinker. The valve responds to the suspended drinker position and maintains the selected water depth during normal operation.

A controlled water stream runs downward along the bell surface instead of splashing directly into the tray. This helps keep the bell cleaner while reducing water loss over the drinking rim.

For stable operation, inlet pressure should remain within the required range. Where farm pressure is too high, a pressure reducer or correctly designed header tank should be installed upstream.

Installation & Maintenance

The JUMBO-98 should be installed in a suspended position and connected to a stable low-pressure poultry water supply. Suspension points should be fixed to structurally suitable roof members or designated steel structure building components.

  • Determine drinker quantity and spacing according to flock size and turkey live weight.
  • Install the poultry water-supply line above the required drinker positions.
  • Connect the drinker using suitable flexible hose and fittings.
  • Install a pressure reducer if the available supply pressure exceeds the required operating range.
  • Set the suspension height to provide comfortable access for the current bird size.
  • Raise the drinker progressively as turkeys grow.
  • Check the drinking-water level during commissioning and flock operation.
  • Inspect valve movement and water connections regularly.
  • Wash the drinking rim to remove feed, litter and organic contamination.
  • Clean filters and water-supply components according to the farm sanitation program.
  • Inspect suspension cords, hooks and adjusters for mechanical wear.
  • Flush the main poultry water line between production cycles.
Product FAQ

Q1: What poultry is the JUMBO-98 primarily designed for?

The JUMBO-98 is primarily designed for heavy turkey applications, particularly birds in the approximately 2-25 kg live-weight range.

Q2: How many turkeys can one drinker serve?

A professional reference configuration recommends approximately 80-100 turkeys per drinker, subject to live weight, climate and local welfare requirements.

Q3: Does the drinker require high water pressure?

No. It is designed for low-pressure operation, typically within a reference range of approximately 0.2-0.5 bar.

Q4: Can it be connected to a water tank?

Yes. A properly designed elevated header tank can be used where it provides the required operating pressure.

Q5: Why does the JUMBO-98 have a relatively deep drinking rim?

The deeper rim provides practical drinking access for larger turkey birds and allows an appropriate operating water depth.

Q6: Can the hanging height be adjusted?

Yes. Suspension height should be progressively adjusted according to bird growth and drinking posture.

Q7: How does the design help maintain dry litter?

Controlled water flow along the bell helps limit splash-over and unnecessary water loss from the drinking rim.

Q8: Can SHEWUYOU configure a complete turkey watering system?

Yes. Drinker quantity, spacing, suspension equipment, water pipes, regulators, filtration and medication equipment can be configured according to project requirements.
