Overview of the incubator "AI-48": characteristics, capacity, instruction

Incubation of eggs at home is a profitable business, but without the use of special equipment it can be very troublesome. A small automatic domestic incubator will be a great helper for the poultry farmer, especially since today such equipment is available to almost everyone. The AI-48 incubator is its typical representative.

Purpose

Incubator "AI-48" is a device designed for breeding chicks from the eggs of any poultry: chickens, ducks, geese, quail. The model is very easy to operate, has the function of automatic rotation of the trays, is equipped with a built-in fan heater and temperature control sensor.

The device is able, automatically, without human intervention, to carry out the desired number of turns in the tray where the incubation material is located. Thus, the embryos receive the necessary amount of light and heat, which is required for normal development.

Important! The main task of this unit is to create as close as possible to the natural conditions of hatching eggs. It repeats the natural process in which the chicken turns eggs through its beak while hatching.

Through the incubator, you can keep already hatched chicks, especially those with weak legs or an unhealed navel. The rest of the chickens are located in the chamber only until completely dry.

Functions

The incubator manufactured by the PRC "AI-48" has an extremely simple control. All functions and modes of operation are clear, easy for even inexperienced users to understand.

Studying different models of incubators, pay attention to "Ryabushka 70", "TGB 140", "Sovatutto 24", "Sovatutto 108", "Nest 200", "Egger 264", "Laying", "Ideal hen", "Cinderella" , "Titan", "Blitz", "Neptune".

Manufacturers have equipped the unit with the following functionality:

1. AL is a function that allows you to set the lower temperature. In the event that the temperature falls below the set digit, a special sound signal will be triggered.
2. AN - the function of setting the maximum temperature. Any deviation from the set number will also be accompanied by an audible warning.
3. AS is a function that determines the lower limit value of humidity. In most cases, the indicators of the lower and upper limits of the humidity level contain the same information.
4. CA - temperature sensor calibration function. It is needed if the error in temperature indicators exceeds 0.5 ° C.

Capacity of eggs of different birds

With the help of the incubator "AI-48" you can simultaneously display 5 dozen eggs.

However, capacity may vary, depending on the size and type of eggs:

• chicken - 48 units;
• goose - 15 units;
• duck - 28 units;
• quail - 67 units.

Did you know? The first incubators appeared more than fifteen hundred years BC. e. in ancient Egypt. They were special rooms where they stood. primitive devices in the form of insulated barrels or furnaces.

Specifications

The mini-incubator for domestic use "AI-48" has the following characteristics:

1. Dimensions: length - 500 mm, width - 510 mm, height - 280 mm.
2. Weight: 5 kg.
3. Power: 80 watts.
4. Case material: high impact plastic.
5. Power supply: 220 watts.
6. Temperature sensor error: 0.1 ° С.
7. Turning eggs: through automation.

Did you know? In the old days, the warmth of a human being was often used to hatch eggs. bodies, that is, there was such a profession as a man-incubator. In some Chinese villages, such a “post” still exists.

Advantages and disadvantages

Before purchasing an incubator, you should carefully consider its strengths and weaknesses.

Let's start with the advantages, which include:

• simple functionality that is easy to understand even for a beginner;
• lack of "unnecessary" functions;
• built-in automatic settings "by default", which exempt from self-tuning parameters (if necessary, you can set the parameters yourself, in accordance with the requirements of the process);
• automatic egg turning;
• compact size, low weight;
• mobility, that is, the ability to carry the unit;

Get acquainted with the rules of incubation of chicken, duck, turkey, goose, quail, and indoutin eggs.

• durable, high-quality plastic case, resistant to mechanical damage;
• ease and simplicity in cleaning and disinfection;
• minimal damage to eggs during temperature changes, since an alarm occurs during the slightest fluctuations;
• the presence of ventilation, which evenly distributes warm and cool air inside the device;
• the presence of the incubation days counter, which makes it possible to know the number of days before hatching of the chicks;
• the presence of special water grooves designed to maintain the required level of humidity inside the unit;
• the presence of transparent windows through which you can monitor the incubation process.

Automatic incubator also has several drawbacks:

• the need to install it only in a warm room;
• the need for regular cleaning and disinfection;
• For the most efficient operation of the device, you need to fill all the trays with eggs, leaving no empty places.

Instructions for use

Before first switching on, check the unit. For this you need:

• connect the power cord to the connector on the rear panel of the device and connect it to the network;
• turn it on by pressing the power button;
• open the lid and fill the special containers with water.

• press the "SET / Settings" button;
• use the "+" and "-" buttons to set the required temperature indicator;
• Press the "SET" button to exit to the main menu.

Important! Long holding the "SET" button allows you to configure the mode of rotation of the trays. The factory setting assumes an automatic flip every 120 minutes.

By default, the temperature in the incubator is set to 38 ° C.

Step-by-step instructions for using the unit:

1. Check before use the operation and configuration of all necessary functions.
2. To fill channels with water, being guided by a local indicator of humidity.
3. Close the lid tightly and turn on the unit.
4. As needed, usually once every four days, pour water into the channels to maintain humidity.
5. At the last stage of incubation, completely fill the two channels with water. This will ensure maximum humidity, which will facilitate the process of hatching chicks.
6. Wait until the end of the incubation process.

Important! It is forbidden to open the appliance lid when hatching chicks to avoid loss of the required moisture. Otherwise, the shells will dry out and it will be difficult for chickens to chop it.

The automatic incubator "AI-48" is a modern, practical and functional unit, which has long been a success with farmers and poultry farmers. The “smart” device easily replaces the hen and even surpasses it in the number of descendants. Therefore, with it the process of incubation will not only be of high quality and fast, but also comfortable.

How to use the incubator "AI-48": reviews

I will add my five kopecks about the Chinese:

(2 years we are engaged in them)

- the design is very convenient and simple, maintainable

- I do not advise two-tier 96 eggs, there you need to refine with fans, the fact is that the temperature in the tiers is uneven

- single-tier on 48 eggs are very stable

- completion of holes - yes, it is recommended, I make one 3-4mm tackle over the fan and a couple on the docks. Air exchange improves. and there are still regular ones there - but after casting they are not perfect - it is MANDATORY to clean them with an awl !!!!

- manual ventilation airing 2 times a day!

In China, they produce (according to my calculations) 16 factories. Reasonably makes 1-2 generally very decent for domestic needs in terms of price / quality

So I think so, I use this Chinese, I like the broods more. And the humidity shows in percent, and the alarm is, if something goes wrong. And the turn is right in the trays, and not the grille they are on the incubator. Goose eggs laid down, so they do not intermeddle in the grid for goose eggs, and the Chinese entered without problems. I only want to refine the body, but there is no time yet. If Sergey delayed the withdrawal on the day, calibrate the incubator in the tinctures by plus 0.5 degrees boldly. And try to lay more. Sometimes the temperature sensor is lying.

@Bellka, I will write briefly, but I can not remember everything. There will be questions you ask. Be sure to put in the foam and the top and bottom. Here he came in the foam. But in the foam cut regular holes for ventilation from below and above and under the scoreboard hole. Incubator on the bars to put for better access of air from the bottom, and then naklevy will not be correct from the sharp end. The moisture meter built into it, we lie, lie and lie again and all the time in different ways. Therefore, it is necessary to buy a moisture meter. I do not fill the grooves, just put jars of Viola cheese in it. I do not use a coup, these yellow cells. This is not a coup, but one misunderstanding. There is not even the right degree. I twist my hands twice a day. I draw X and O on the egg. Lower the temperature sensor from the lid below to hang over the egg. But here it is necessary to measure the temperature in the incubator. He has a huge underheating. Even in flat, hot and constant degrees, he is not capable of hatching normally without modifications. The temperature sensor is well, very high. In the center of the egg does not lay on any, even with modifications, a very powerful fan, the egg stops there in development. Plus the fact that it very quickly picks up the temperature, I open it quietly at any stage of incubation. Now prints well. I am very pleased with him. It is great even to peel the duck-faced ducks and geese, not to mention the pellets, broilers and simple chickens. I try to lay the egg on the sides. But the large goose eggs, the center does not lay, and if they do not fit, then I put one on one. With a manual coup, I switch all places. We have it with access to the battery, this stray also does not work ... The incubator itself works, the fan turns, and the degrees fall. I repeat. Now he is very pleased, but of course he drank bloods and nerves with us. Just now I know him 100% and I command him, not him.
