Plasson Breeder Drinker Complete Mk2

Plasson Breeder Drinker Complete Mk2

The Plasson Breeder Drinker Complete Mk2 provides an automatic drinking point for poultry and game bird rearing setups. Its bell-shaped body and circular trough allow birds to approach the water from around the unit.

Suitable for poults and poultry, the Mk2 offers a choice of floor-standing or hanging use to suit your accommodation and management arrangements.

Floor-Standing or Hanging Use

The drinker can be positioned on the floor or suspended from a suitable support, following the installation instructions.

Choose a stable location with clear access for the birds and sufficient space for routine inspection. When suspended, ensure the drinker hangs level and the supply tubing does not pull it sideways.

Review its position as the birds grow, adjusting the arrangement according to the manufacturer’s guidance.

Automatic Water Supply & Adjustment

Connected to a suitable supply, the automatic mechanism replenishes the drinking trough as water is consumed. The water-level adjustment allows the unit to be set according to its operating instructions.

Correct supply pressure is essential. Check the requirements for your exact model before connecting it to an existing installation, and use compatible pressure-control equipment where required.

Independent Ballast Bottle

The Plasson breeder drinker incorporates a ballast bottle that acts independently of the bell. This arrangement helps stabilise the unit and reduces wear on the valve mechanism.

Prepare and use the ballast bottle according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Key Features

• Automatic bell drinker for poults and poultry.
• Suitable for floor-standing or suspended use.
• Circular drinking trough with access around the unit.
• Adjustable water level.
• Independent ballast bottle for stability.
• Practical for use within a planned poultry watering system.

Cleaning & Routine Checks

Check the drinker regularly to confirm that water is available and the tray remains clean.

Inspect the valve, tubing and connections for leaks or interrupted flow. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning, adjustment and replacement parts.

After maintenance, test the unit before returning it to use. Automatic operation reduces manual refilling but does not replace regular inspection.

Choosing Compatible Equipment

Before ordering fittings or replacement parts, identify the drinker model and compare component references carefully. Parts for different Plasson drinkers may look similar without being interchangeable.
