IX-NIPPLE-WATERING Nipple Drinking Systems Specifications, Operation & Selection Guide

The values below come from the supplied 2026 IXORTA catalogue. Use them to build an initial shortlist, then confirm the exact configuration, options and acceptance criteria in the model-specific quotation.

Before ordering: confirm the duty, usable capacity, overall dimensions, utilities, safety package, controls, attachments and documentation for the destination market. Download the division catalogue.

IX-NIPPLE-WATERING sits between the smaller and larger configurations in this 7-model range, making side-by-side specification comparison especially important.

Shortlist this model when the planned duty is close to its listed values. If the application regularly approaches a limit, compare the adjacent models below and ask IXORTA to check working margin, cycle expectations and future capacity.

Compare every nipple drinking systems model.

A regulator lowers inlet pressure, water fills the square drinking line and each bird activates a nipple pin. Correct line height, pressure, flushing and flow selection are essential for age and bird type.

The safe sequence depends on the supplied guards, controls, utilities and attachments. Operators should follow the delivered manual, training and site risk assessment. For process examples and planning articles, continue to the IXORTA Poultry & Feed industry guides.

Review stainless or plastic nipple construction, pipe fit, pressure regulation, seals, flushing, flow consistency and leak testing.

A useful factory-acceptance record identifies the agreed configuration, principal components, inspection points, test material or load, observed results, open actions, documentation set, packing method and release approval. See IXORTA Poultry & Feed project scopes for the wider delivery context.

A catalogue capacity alone is not enough. IXORTA should receive the normal and peak operating range, site conditions, utilities, operator experience, destination and delivery constraints before recommending a configuration. Review the division buyer FAQs before sending the enquiry.

1. Define the job. Record material, load, output, quality and environmental requirements.
2. Inspect before start. Check guards, fluids, fasteners, tooling or attachments, connections and the work area.
3. Set the equipment. Apply the model manual, verified program or calibrated field setting.
4. Prove at low risk. Run a dry cycle, first part, clean-water test or short field pass as appropriate.
5. Monitor production. Watch load, sound, temperature, quality, flow, alignment and safety devices.
6. Close and record. Isolate safely, clean, inspect wear and log service actions.

Use the project enquiry form to identify any required training, commissioning or operator documentation.

• flush lines on schedule
• check end-of-line pressure
• replace leaking nipples
• clean filters and medicators

Intervals depend on operating hours, duty, dust, heat, water quality and the surrounding environment. The delivered manual and component schedules control the final service plan. Send spare-parts and service questions through the IXORTA contact page.

Confirm bird type and age, house dimensions, summer design temperature, power and water reliability, ventilation duty, feed storage, emergency operation, automation level, biosecurity, inland route and installation responsibilities.

For a useful export quotation, include the destination port, inland route, unloading equipment, site access, local standards, document language, commissioning responsibility and critical spare-parts expectation. Browse regional project examples.
