5.6 TUNNEL CURTAIN

The PP-32 allows you to control an endwall curtain for tunnel ventilation. The tunnel curtain is controlled either by the static pressure level in the barn or in timer mode, according to the room temperature. Select the proper mode (Timer or Static pressure) that is used to control the tunnel curtain in the installation setup (see sec 5.14.3).

In both modes, a minimum animal age is defined to avoid starting the tunnel ventilation mode when animals are too young.

Tunnel Curtain Controlled in Time Mode:

Every time a tunnel fan stage starts, the curtain opens according to the Open-Time related to this stage. A maximum running time is also set to limit the curtain's opening.

When the start temperature of the first tunnel stage is reached, the tunnel curtain opens during half of the opening time that is associated with this stage. When half of the opening time has elapsed tunnel fans are activated. When the next tunnel stage is reached, the tunnel curtain continues to open according to the opening time defined for that stage, etc. When the temperature decreases, the same sequence is executed in reverse order. The following diagram sums up the operation of the first two tunnel stages.
