Nipple drip cup

Description

Drinker nipple cup

The nipple drip cup is a very important complementary component in Nipple drinking system for poultry. This simple yet practical component plays an important role in optimizing water consumption, keeping litter dry and improving poultry-house hygiene. A nipple drip cup (Nipple Drip Cup) is a small container installed below the nipple to collect dripping water. These cups are usually made of strong, lightweight plastic and come in different sizes and designs depending on nipple type and bird age. The high-quality, high-performance Arian nipple cup is manufactured by Arian Poultry Equipment. Drinkers are widely used in small bird-rearing houses and are recognized as an essential requirement. Since easy, continuous access to fresh water is vital in poultry rearing, birds must always have access to clean, hygienic water.

The Arian nipple cup is used in rearing houses for small birds or chicks such as commercial chickens and turkeys. Its design allows installation on nipple drinking lines with 180-degree and 360-degree nipples. The Arian single-arm nipple cup attaches through its upper clip to the round nipple drinking pipe and, at the top, to the support pipes of the drinking system. Single-arm cups offer greater ease of use for birds than two-arm cups, providing better and easier access to the drinking system from all directions. This cup design also makes the product easier to handle and more durable against detergents and disinfectants. Another advantage of the Arian single-arm cup is the very high strength of its nipple-pipe and support-pipe retaining clamp, which keeps nipple lines stable and resistant to bending and consequently prevents sagging.

Main function of the nipple cup

The nipple drip cup is designed to prevent dripping and water waste. When a bird pecks the nipple and drinks, a few extra drops usually fall. These drops can wet the litter and cause problems such as fungal growth, increased ammonia, and foot diseases in poultry. The nipple cup collects these drops and prevents wet litter.

Benefits of using nipple drip cups

• Keeps litter dry and reduces moisture-related diseases such as pododermatitis.
• Reduced odors and ammonia levels in the rearing house.
