The CMPRO-SWB-PWM30A is a purpose built Automation Switchboard for use in Mobile or Fixed Egg farming Caravans, Coops or Sheds.
The proprietary built ChickenMaster PRO™ Automation Controller is the brains behind the Switchboard allowing the user to fully Automate functions such as Open/Closing of Nest Box Gates, Open/Closing of External Doors, turning On/Off the Internal Lighting and also incorporates a Courtesy Light Timer & Push Button for the Egg collection area.
The MANUAL Control Menu gives the user control of all the automated functions with an easy to use four-button keypad.
ChickenMaster PRO™ is the ONLY
Automated free range egg farming controller which incorporates a Latitude and Longitude feature for the automated functions.
This feature negates the need for the farmer to have to change time clock/timer settings as the seasons change throughout the year.
The ChickenMaster PRO™ knows when the Sun will rise and set based on your geographic location anywhere in the world.
All the Sunrise and Sunset variables can be fine-tuned by the farmer offering amazing flexibility to suit each individual farmer and their particular farming activities.
A 30 Amp PWM, 3 stage full function Solar Charge Controller with LCD display is also incorporated inside the Automation Switchboard and will keep your battery topped up and performing during those winter months.
The system is capable of charging the following types of batteries:
Lead Acid (Flooded, GEL and AGM) and Lithium Battery ( Li(LiCoMn)O2 and LiFePO4)
The Enclosure is made from high impact UV Stabilised Polycarbonate and uses 304 Stainless steel mounting clips and lid clasps.
A Clear lid allows full visibility of all the LCD displays without having to open the enclosure.
The enclosure, Cable Wiring Glands and Courtesy Light Push Button have an IP67 Weatherproof rating and can be mounted in the harshest of environments.
