Please read all the instructions before using the
PLASSON Super Easy Start Adjustable for Turkey Poults
General recommendations:
1.
Check your installation:
●
After completing the installation, fill the lines in order to check
the system.
●
The SESA system is assembled on the PLASSON Nipple system.
●
Always use the long connecting piece (02209015) for the
Aluminum profile.
●
Nipple type for this application: Grey.
●
Recommended number of Turkey Poults per SESA: 25-30.
●
Recommended number of SESA per 3 m (10’) section: 4-6.
●
Maximum length of line 80 m (260 ft.). For longer lines, a
PLASSON Mid Line Pressure Regulator can be used.
●
If water is supplied from the main pipeline, incoming pressure
to the header kit should be 1.5 bar (22psi),max. 2.7 bar (40psi).
●
If water is supplied from a header tank, the header tank should
be at least 4 m (13 ft.) above floor level.
●
A 130 micron or 120 mesh filter cartridge or better must be
installed before the header kit.
●
Lines must be suspended at a constant height above the house
floor (slats/litter).
●
For lines with more than 15 cm (6”) of fall or slope, be sure to
install the header kit on the high end of the line and allow the
water to flow downward. Maximum permitted drop of line
without using PLASSON Slope Regulator: 15 cm (6”).
●
Shocker wire must be installed. The aluminum profile must be
grounded. It is recommended to perform the grounding using
PLASSON Grounding Nipple.
2.
Before operating the system and prior to placement of
birds:
●
At the start of each new flock and after medication, the system
must be flushed thoroughly with high pressure, one line at a
time (for details see PLASSON Guide to Cleaning Water Lines).
To flush:
●
Open drain valve at end of line
●
Turn valve on Pressure Regulator to “flush” position (half turn)
●
We suggest a minimum of 10 minutes per line. Once
completed, turn the valve to “regulate” position and close
drain valve at the end of the line.
●
Set the water pressure (initial setting) to 30 cm (12”).
(Water level in sight tube should be measured from the center
of the Nipple line pipe)
3.
During the flock:
●
It is very important that the Turkey Poults will be able to see the
water in the SESA - adjust the height of the SESA line and the
light program accordingly.
Recommended water pressure: 25-40 cm (10"-16").
Note: Under 30cm pressure, the lower the pressure the higher
the water volume in the cup.
●
Training towards grow out:
●
If finishing barn is equipped with HF* we recommend adding
one HF per 3 m (10’) section for the last week of brooding.
●
If the finishing is done in the same shed and using HF, we
recommend adding one HF per 3 m (10’) section from the
3rd week of brooding and continue replacing the SESA with
one HF every two/three days (see HF Operating instructions).
The extra unused Nipples should be covered with PLASSON
Snap on Plug for Nipple (02205294).
●
PLASSON Bell Drinker, lower 5 to 10 Bell Drinkers per house
for the last week of brooding.
●
Height of SESA System guidelines: follow the sketch hereunder
●
Clean the filter periodically according to water quality
●
It is good practice to run clean water through the Medicator
after each medication
4.
After taking the birds out:
●
Clean the lines following PLASSON Guide to Cleaning Water Lines
●
Keep the lines filled with water except under freezing

(Up to 7 weeks) Operation Instructions
Day 3 up to
6 days
Adjust the line’s height
enabeling the Turkey
Poults to easily see the
water upon their first
search while ensuring
the cup does not touch
the litter as this will
cause it to flood.
Slightly raise the water
lines in order to train the
birds to drink from the
raised SESA. The lip of
the SESA should be at
bird’s chest to eye level.
Keep the SESA lip
slightly above eye level
while enabling free
movement under the
SESA.
