Hotraco to introduce poultry computer at VIV Asia 2013


    Hotraco will be presenting the MIRA-P poultry computer during VIV Asia 2013, which will be held in Bangkok, Thailand, March 13–15.
    The MIRA-P is an expansion of the existing range of poultry computers IRIS, SIRIUS and ORION. In poultry barns for broilers, for example, the MIRA-P can control a wide range of processes, such as ventilation, heating, cooling, feed registration and water, as well as animal weighing. This is because the inputs and outputs of the MIRA-P can be freely allocated. This makes it the ideal computer for simple poultry houses, according to Hotraco.
    The MIRA-P determines ventilation level on the basis of inside/outside temperature measured and humidity in the barn, if appropriate. The MIRA-P is equipped with a day counter and curve settings. Both adjustable and on/off fans can be connected to it.
    The MIRA-P has multiple controls for controlling the air inlet, on the basis of the room temperature, on the basis of underpressure or synchronous with the ventilation setting. The MIRA-P can distinguish between left and right control and a tunnel inlet is also one of the options.
    There are four controls in the MIRA-P for heating and a second temperature control can be controlled by means of a dedicated sensor (floor heating, for example). A cooling system can be switched on and off by the MIRA-P.
    The lighting can be switched with a maximum of 24 on/off moments. A dimming function has also been included in the switching on/off of the lighting. The MIRA-P has two timers.
    By connecting an external CAN-IO-LCA, the MIRA-P can also be used for silo weighing and/or animal weighing. The MIRA-P can also optionally be fitted with an SD card for logging data and updating software, and can be connected via USB to a PC with Rainbow+ management software.
