FaroTek Calibrate the FaroTek dispenser
26
The FaroTek dispenser is a drop feeder that dispenses a constant volume per portion. This means that the actual
amount of feed dispensed (in grams) depends on the density of the feed. To achieve accurate feed dispensing, it
is important that the FaroTek dispenser is adjusted (calibrated) to the relevant feed.

Make sure that the FaroTek dispenser that you are calibrating is filled with the right feed. Press the portion
button as often as is necessary to fill all the bucket wheels of the dispenser and to dispense an even feed
amount (approx. 6 portions).

Identify the Weight per portion by dispensing the feed amount of 10 portions, collecting this in a suitable
receptacle, weighing it and dividing the result by 10.

Enter this calculated Weight per portion in the TouchTek PC software program.
The FaroTek dispensers must be recalibrated whenever you change over to another type of
feed as the weight per portion may have changed. The sows can’t be provided with the desired
amount of feed if the FaroTek dispenser is not calibrated correctly!
