3-in-1 Stock Tank De-icer

3-in-1 API stock tank de-icer 190-410The API 3-in-1 stock tank de-icer is an innovatice solution designed to be an all in one unit. It can easily convert to be used as a floating, sinking and as a drain plug de-icer. If you aren”t sure wheather a floating, sinking or drain plug system might work the best for you this is the one.

The 3-in-1 stock tank de-icer from API incorporates multiple temperature sensors to monitor water temperatures  as well as protect against over-temperature conditions. Traditional de-icers use one sensor to monitor both water and heater temperatures. By requiring one sensor to do double duty, the water may be heated more than necessary. WIth the use of multiple sensors, the 3-in-1 stock tank de-icer improves temperature control while keeping the tank completely ice free.

3-in-1-bottom-viewThe sturdy, finned aluminum base spreads the heat out to make the 3-in-1 series run cooler to the touch while putting the maximum amount of heat into the water. The unit can be safely operated in any plastic or metal tank without the use of a guard.

Convert the 3-in-1 stock tank de-icer to a sinking de-icer by removing the cover and float and turning the unit upside down to rest on the bottom of the tank. Sturdy feet support the unit off the tank bottom when operating as a sinking de-icer.

3-in-1-exploded-viewConvert the 3-in-1 stock tank de-icer to a  drain plug de-icer by removing the cover and float and turning the unit upside down to rest on the bottom of the tank. Then route the power cord through the drain hole and use the special included adapter to create a water tight seal.

6000i Features

Additional features on the 6000 includes

  • Backlit LCD screen displays output voltage, battery voltage and earth voltage to give an instant indication
    of fence conditions
  • Remote ready gives you control over the Unigizer from anywhere on the fence line, eliminating the need to
    be near the unit to turn it on or off; previously only available in large energizers

Unigizer

A line or battery energizer, compatible with permanent, temporary and solar electric fence installations.

Bi-polar operation

The Speedrite 6000 and 6000i units have the bi-polar operation feature allowing you to reduce the fence voltage on any one wire.

The benefits of bi-polar operation:

  • Animals will receive a warning shock of up to 5 kV if it touches one wire, and up to10 kV if it becomes more aggressive and touches two wires.
  • The breakdown of insulators is slower, and the chance of sparking is reduced because only 5 kV is on each wire. This is important for dry areas where there could be a fire risk.
  • Useful in low soil conductivity areas, as the earth connection is less important when an animal is touching two wires

Cyclic Wave Technology

Cyclic Wave technology gives a cleaner and more efficient pulse that has a higher output energy than a standard
energizer. This means more voltage at the far end of your fence line for greater stock control.

Earth Monitoring

The 6000i has a smart function called the ‘earth monitor’. A red LED will illuminate whenever the earth voltage exceeds 800 V and by checking the LCD the user can determine at a glance the actual voltage being lost in the earth.

Y-Tex Ear Tags In Stock

Local Farm Supply now has in stock high quality livestock identification tags including the traditional numbered tags only and the new RFID tags. These tags have proven to stand up very well and are durable and long lasting. In fact, our tests showed that when cut with a utility knife, intentionally, to simulate abuse, we could not rip the cut further by hand, due to the fact that the tag was so durable! Talk about tough! Also unlike the competition the ID numbers on these tags do not wear off making them still readable when livestock is sent to the packer.
