Product Name Temperature-Controlled Boar Semen Extender Mixing Vat
Product Image Temperature Controlled Boar Semen Extender Mixing Vat for Pig Artificial Insemination
Product Overview The Temperature-Controlled Boar Semen Extender Mixing Vat is designed for preparing, holding, mixing, and maintaining semen extender at a controlled working temperature during commercial pig artificial insemination production.

The unit features a double-wall and double-bottom stainless-steel structure with an integrated heating system. The HT 50 temperature control unit allows the operator to select and maintain the required extender temperature throughout the preparation and semen-processing workflow.

Its stainless-steel construction provides a hygienic, durable, and easy-to-clean surface suitable for boar studs, semen production centers, genetic companies, commercial pig farms, and veterinary reproduction laboratories. The wheeled base allows convenient movement between preparation, dilution, and filling areas.

The system is particularly useful when large volumes of extender must be prepared in advance and maintained at a stable temperature before being transferred to semen dilution or automatic filling equipment.

  • Smooth surfaces simplify routine cleaning and disinfection.
  • Nominal 50 L capacity supports medium- and large-scale semen preparation workflows.
  • Mixing function supports uniform preparation of extender solution before semen dilution.
  • Mobile caster wheels allow convenient movement inside the semen-processing laboratory.
  • Suitable for use with hygienic disposable round-bottom liners where required.
  • Can be integrated into semen dilution, pumping, dispensing, and filling workflows.
  • Available for 230 V electrical supply, with 110 V configuration available for selected markets.
  • Suitable for commercial boar studs, pig AI centers, genetic companies, and veterinary laboratories.
Working Principle Purified water and the required semen extender are prepared inside a suitable hygienic container or liner positioned within the vat. The heating system transfers heat through the double-wall and double-bottom structure to the extender solution.

The temperature control unit continuously regulates the heating process according to the selected setpoint. This allows the extender to reach and remain at the required preparation temperature without repeated manual reheating.

The mixing function promotes uniform distribution of extender components and helps maintain a homogeneous solution before dilution. Once the extender has completely dissolved and reached the required temperature, it can be transferred to the semen dilution process.

During initial semen dilution, the extender temperature should be controlled according to the laboratory protocol and should be close to the semen temperature to reduce temperature shock. Final preparation conditions should follow the selected semen extender manufacturer's instructions.

Product FAQ

Q: What is this temperature-controlled mixing vat mainly used for?
A: It is mainly used to prepare, mix, hold, and maintain boar semen extender at a controlled temperature before and during semen dilution operations.

Q: What is the nominal capacity?
A: The listed nominal capacity is approximately 50 liters. Final capacity should be confirmed according to the ordered model.

Q: What is the maximum adjustable temperature?
A: The HT 50 temperature controller allows temperature adjustment up to approximately +55°C.

Q: Why is constant extender temperature important?
A: Boar sperm cells are sensitive to rapid temperature changes. Maintaining controlled extender temperature helps laboratories standardize the dilution process and reduce unnecessary thermal stress during initial semen processing.

Q: Is the vat made from stainless steel?
A: Yes. The main structure is manufactured from stainless steel to provide durability, corrosion resistance, and convenient cleaning and disinfection.

Q: Can disposable liners be used?
A: Yes. Disposable round-bottom plastic liners can be used to improve hygiene and reduce direct contact between extender and the internal tank surface.

Q: Can the equipment be moved inside the laboratory?
A: Yes. The vat is equipped with caster wheels, allowing it to be repositioned between preparation and production areas when required.

Q: What electrical supply is required?
A: The standard listed configuration uses 230 V power, while a 110 V version can be supplied for selected markets.

Q: Can it be connected to semen dispensing or filling equipment?
A: Depending on the final configuration, the vat can be incorporated into a semen-processing workflow with pumps, dispensers, transfer lines, or filling equipment.

Q: Is this equipment suitable for commercial boar studs?
A: Yes. It is intended for boar studs, semen production centers, genetic companies, commercial pig farms, and veterinary laboratories that prepare semen extender on a routine basis.
