DOL 53 ammonia sensor

Award winning ammonia sensor

In 2016, DOL 53 won a silver medal at the Innovation Award at EuroTier, which is the world’s leading trade fair for animal production. The competition is judged by an independent international committee of recognized consultants, scientists and practitioners appointed by the DLG (German Agricultural Society).

Scientists from The Department of Poultry Science at the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences of the University of Georgia completed a total of four trials. Their final report confirms that “the DOL 53 ammonia sensor performed extremely well in initial poultry house field trials”.*

Would you like to improve livestock warfare & mortality?

Then DOL 53 ammonia sensor is the management tool for your broiler production. If a broiler producer notices that the ammonia level rises at the start of the batch, he can take corrective action in the form of extra ventilation or heat supply. It is also possible to detect any digestion problems. Early action benefits the welfare and productivity of the broilers.

Earn 2,500 EUR extra per batch

An increased concentration of ammonia has a major impact on the financial yield of your broiler production. Research in this area *shows that an increased concentration can cut profits by 2,500 EUR or more per batch in a livestock house with 25,000 broilers.
