High-pressure fogging

High pressure fogging with TS Fans

Research has demonstrated that from a temperature level at temperatures above 22°C, a dairy cow shows a reduced feed intake and therefore loses body weight. This results in lower milk production decreases, that can remain below standard for an extended period.

High-producing dairy cows are most susceptible to the effects of heat stress. The degree of heat stress is determined by environmental factors such as: the air temperature, humidity, air speed, and exposure to direct sunlight. As a farmer, you can ensure that there is sufficient air circulation in your barn and plenty of fresh drinking water, but that is often not enough to beat the heat!

High-pressure misting systems, in combination with sufficient shade and air movement, have proven to have a very positive effect on the production of your dairy herd during the warm seasons. The water evaporates in the barn air. This evaporation process requires heat, this heat which is extracted from the ambient air and cools the barn air cool. A fan near the nozzles increases the evaporation rate and enhances the efficiency of the cooling system.

Research results reveal that dairy herds in cow barns equipped with high-pressure misting systems in the warm seasons, there is an show increased milk production. In general, the The best results are generally achieved with by a combination of fogging together misting and fans.
