12VOLTS DC FAN FOR INCUBATORS

 

When building an egg incubator you need good quality parts and i will introduce you to the best materials for you to produce good incubators.

12 Volts DC Fan

This is one of the most important part needed to build an egg incubator.It's very neccessary to have this fan if you are to build/construct an incubator which has the capacity to hold more than 60 eggs(with the use of egg trays). This fan is connected to DC power output meaning that if you have a 12V battery you are good to go and if you have power source(electricity) you need to connect this fan to a 12V DC adaptor for it to be supplied with enough energy to make it work.

Note: Connecting this fan direct to 220V is strongly not reccomended it will surely burn out and will not work.

The use of this fan is very important and will explain how it works inside the incubator.

HOW IT WORKS ?

This fan is for air circulation inside your incubator and the main purpose of it, is to circulate air freely inside the incubator.Eggs need oxygen to survive (develop). So we use the 12V fan on our incubators to rotate the air inside to provide good air distrubition in our incubator. The number of fans to be installed is determined by the egg capacity of your incubator.

• 60 egg incubators you need the least 2 fans connected on both ends like facing each other (opposite directions). These fans should run continuosly non stop until the incubation proccess is complete.
• 100-150 Egg incubators...3 or 4 fans must be installed in the incubator.The positioning of these fans is important and good guidelines should be used to make the perfect setting up of your fans. Depending on your box you will have to consult an expert to give you advice on where to place your fans.These fans should run for the entire incubation period thus 21 days.
• 200 or more Egg incubator you will need four or more fans including one extraction fan *will look into extraction fan in details later*. The positioning of these fans also depends on how you have build your incubator box and these fans should run non stop for the entire incubation period.

Building an incubator without fan/s is not adviceable please make sure you try by all means to get these fans.New or second hand fans are available in your area.
