In the heart of Australia, a 24-house broiler complex faced a significant challenge: reducing ventilation system energy consumption while improving its efficiency. The complex used older belt drive fan technology, which was energy-intensive and required routine maintenance.
Quick facts
- Up to 50% reduction in energy usage
- Average of 32% reduction in kW usage
- Controlling the temperature inside the buildings makes more productive birds
Safeguarding animal welfare and profitability
With energy costs skyrocketing, the broiler farm wanted better cost control and reduced environmental impact. The belt drive fans were also prone to breakdowns, disrupting operations and increasing maintenance costs.
Leveraging Munters Drive EC technology
Munters engineers proposed a solution: the Munters Drive motor. This innovative motor technology offered several advantages over traditional belt drive systems, including:
- Up to 40% in energy savings.
- Nearly maintenance-free operation.
- Improved ventilation control.
