Product Name	170L Calf Milk Cart with Pump
Product Image
Product Overview	The 170L Calf Milk Cart with Pump is a mobile calf-feeding trolley designed to transport and dispense bulk quantities of whole milk or pre-mixed liquid milk replacer around commercial dairy farms. A 170-liter polyethylene tank is mounted on a robust galvanized steel frame with two large front wheels and two braked swivel castors for maneuverability around calf barns, hutches and feeding passages. The integrated 12 V centrifugal pump transfers milk through a flexible hose to a dispensing nozzle, reducing repeated lifting and carrying of heavy milk buckets. This configuration is supplied as a pump-equipped milk cart without a motorized mixer. Milk replacer should therefore be prepared before loading unless a mixer-equipped alternative is selected.
Key Features	170 L tank capacity for whole milk or pre-mixed liquid milk replacer. High-output 12 V centrifugal pump with a reference flow rate of up to 36 L/min. Digital flow meter supports controlled milk dispensing during calf-feeding rounds. Handheld dispensing nozzle allows milk to be delivered directly into buckets or compatible calf feeders. Rechargeable 12 V battery eliminates the need for an electrical cable during dispensing. Reference battery capacity supports dispensing of up to approximately 7,500 L per charge under specified operating conditions. Galvanized steel frame provides strength and corrosion resistance for dairy-farm environments. Two 10-inch flat-free braked swivel castors improve maneuverability. Large non-corrosive plastic-rimmed wheels support movement over typical farm surfaces. Twist-on lid helps reduce splashing and contamination during transport. External tank calibration markings simplify visual monitoring of liquid volume. Protective housing shields the battery and pump during routine operation.
Structural Components	170L Polyethylene Tank: Durable liquid container designed for transporting whole milk and liquid milk replacer. Galvanized Steel Frame: Supports the tank, pump, battery and wheel assemblies during daily farm use. Large Tank Lid: Provides convenient access for filling and cleaning while helping minimize contamination. 1.5-Inch Outlet Valve: Provides manual control of liquid discharge from the tank. 12 V Centrifugal Pump: Transfers milk from the tank to the dispensing hose at high flow. Rechargeable Battery: Powers the pump independently during mobile feeding rounds. Battery and Pump Cover: Protects electrical and pumping components from accidental contact and farm contamination. Digital Flow Meter: Measures the quantity passing through the dispensing line. Dispensing Nozzle: Provides operator-controlled delivery into individual feeding containers. Flexible Milk Hose: Connects the pump and dispensing nozzle for convenient calf feeding. Front Transport Wheels: Large plastic-rimmed wheels assist movement across farm surfaces. Rear Swivel Castors: Braked castor wheels provide turning control and stable parking.
Working Principle	Prepared whole milk or pre-mixed liquid milk replacer is poured into the 170 L polyethylene tank through the large top opening and the lid is secured before transport. The operator manually moves the cart from the milk preparation area to the calf housing area. When feeding begins, the battery-powered centrifugal pump draws liquid from the tank and transfers it through the flexible hose. The operator uses the dispensing nozzle to deliver milk into individual calf buckets, teat feeders or other compatible feeding containers. The digital flow meter provides a convenient reference for monitoring the quantity dispensed. After the feeding round, the pump, hose, nozzle, outlet valve and tank should be rinsed and cleaned according to the farm's milk-feeding hygiene program, and the battery can be connected to its charger for the next feeding cycle.

Applications	Commercial dairy farms. Individual calf hutches and outdoor calf housing. Indoor individual calf pens. Group calf-rearing facilities. Whole-milk feeding programs. Pre-mixed liquid milk-replacer feeding. Replacement-heifer rearing centers. Steel-structure dairy barns and dedicated calf buildings. Milk-room-to-calf-barn feeding routes. Dairy farm modernization and livestock engineering projects.
Customization Options	The calf milk cart can be configured according to calf numbers, feeding route, barn layout and farm-management requirements. Available project options may include alternative hose lengths, dispensing nozzles, flow-meter configurations, charger specifications, wheel arrangements and milk-handling accessories. For farms requiring on-board milk-replacer preparation, a separate mixer-equipped or mixer-and-pump configuration can be selected. Electrical accessories and selected components are available upon request.
Installation & Maintenance	No fixed barn installation is normally required; verify wheel, handle, hose and dispensing assemblies before initial operation. Charge the battery in a dry, ventilated area using a compatible charger. Confirm that rear castor brakes operate correctly before filling or parking the cart. Rinse the tank, pump, hose and dispensing nozzle with clean water immediately after feeding where practical. Use a suitable dairy or calf-feeding equipment detergent for scheduled thorough cleaning. Follow the detergent manufacturer's concentration, temperature and rinsing instructions. Keep milk residues from drying inside the pump, flow meter, valve and hose. Protect the battery housing and electrical components from direct high-pressure washing. Inspect the hose regularly for cracking, abrasion or contamination. Check pump performance and flow-meter accuracy periodically. Inspect wheel bearings, castors, brakes and frame fasteners as part of preventive maintenance. Store the cart clean and empty between feeding periods whenever possible.
Product FAQ	Q: What is the capacity of the milk cart? A: The reference tank capacity is 170 liters. Q: Does this model include a milk-replacer mixer? A: No. This is the pump-only configuration. Milk replacer should be mixed before filling the tank, or a mixer-equipped alternative can be selected. Q: Can the cart dispense whole milk? A: Yes. It is suitable for transporting and dispensing whole milk as well as properly prepared liquid milk replacer. Q: What is the pump flow rate? A: The reference 12 V centrifugal pump can deliver up to approximately 36 liters per minute. Q: How is the pump powered? A: The reference configuration uses a rechargeable 12 V, 42 Ah battery. Q: How much milk can be dispensed on one battery charge? A: Under reference operating conditions, the system can dispense up to approximately 7,500 liters, equivalent to about 44 full 170-liter tank loads. Q: Can the amount of milk dispensed be monitored? A: Yes. A digital flow meter is incorporated into the dispensing system for convenient quantity monitoring. Q: Is it suitable for uneven farm surfaces? A: The large front wheels and rear swivel castors are designed for typical dairy-farm routes, although heavily uneven ground, steep slopes and unsuitable surfaces should be avoided when the cart is fully loaded. Q: How should the milk cart be cleaned? A: Milk-contact surfaces should be rinsed after use and cleaned regularly using approved dairy or calf-feeding equipment detergents, followed by thorough rinsing. Q: Can the hose and dispensing system be customized? A: Hose length, dispensing accessories and selected electrical components can be supplied according to project requirements.
