Giordano B85 Automatic Hanging Drinker for Poultry & Game Birds

Giordano B85 Automatic Hanging Drinker

The Giordano B85 drinker is an automatic bell-style drinker for poultry and game bird watering systems. Its red conical body sits above a circular drinking trough, allowing birds to approach from around the unit.

Connecting the drinker to a suitable water supply reduces the need to refill individual containers manually. Regular cleaning and checks remain essential to confirm that each drinking point is working correctly.

Suspended Drinking Equipment

The hanging arrangement allows the drinker to be positioned above the floor or ground using suitable suspension equipment.

Choose a secure support and set the drinking height according to the birds and the equipment instructions. The tray should hang level, with sufficient clearance for birds to reach the water comfortably.

Route the supply tubing so that it does not pull the drinker sideways or interfere with its operation.

Low-Pressure Water Supply

Confirm that your water system meets the requirements for the B85 before installation.

Do not assume that the drinker can connect directly to unrestricted mains pressure. Use the specified supply arrangement and any necessary compatible pressure-control equipment.

When adding drinkers to an existing system, check the available supply and connections rather than relying on appearance alone to establish compatibility.

Cleaning & Routine Checks

Inspect the drinker regularly for contamination, leaks and interrupted water flow.

Clean the tray and associated components using methods and products suitable for the equipment. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when dismantling, adjusting or reassembling the unit.

After cleaning, confirm that the drinker hangs level and supplies water correctly before returning it to use.

Choosing the Number of Drinkers

Plan drinking provision around the species, age and number of birds, together with temperature and expected demand.

Consider the distribution of drinking points as well as their capacity. Birds need convenient access, and the system must continue to deliver water reliably at every unit.
