8.3.2 Changing the concentration plans
For each feeding plan a corresponding concentration plan is
available. Like the feeding plan also the concentration plan is
subdivided into four periods as a standard. However, the dura-
tion of the periods of the concentration plans is not linked with
the duration of the periods of the feeding plans.

Group C 64 316 42
Group D 71 353 47
Example: If the concentration must be the same for all
feeding periods, in P 1 of the concentration plan enter the
exact number of days that correspond to the total number
of days in the feeding plan.
Note: Many manufacturers of milk powder give a recom-
mendation about the milk powder concentration per liter of
feed (water including milk powder) on the packaging. In the
program of the automatic feeder, however, the concentra-
tion is set per liter of water. Therefore, please refer to the
following table which shows you the values to be selected
in the concentration plans in order to achieve the desired
concentration per liter of prepared feed.
