Description of the I-Control flush computer
The I-Control is specifically designed to flush drinking lines in poultry houses. Flushing is done by flushing water
through the water pipes during a set time period. One flushing group at a time will be controlled.
Flushing can be started by various means:
- Manual activation of one flushing group during the set flush time
- Manual flushing of all groups consecutively during the set flush time
- Automatic flushing at set start times
- Automatic flushing when the temperature of the water in the drinking lines is too high
- Automatic flushing when the water in the drinking lines becomes too polluted
The I-Control can be temporarily blocked when medicines are added to the drinking water. In this case flushing is
undesirable.
The I-Control is active only between an set start and stop time. This is important when the drinking water supply is
shut off for a certain period of time by a climate computer, such as during the night. Flushing will therefore not
occur.
The I-Control has a graphic display to read all settings. The main screen gives a summary of the I-Control status,
such as which flushing group is active, flushing times, etc..
To change the settings, the I-Control has a keyboard. The numeric keys can also be used to directly to specific
menus, called shortcuts.
