Pig barns


Bräuer Stalltechnik develops forward-looking pig barns for generations.

Pig barns | Barn climate

Cooling

Cooling systems – perfect barn climate even on hot days

Increasing temperatures and longer heat periods create new challenges for modern pig production. Professional cooling systems reduce heat stress, support feed intake and create ideal conditions for animal health, welfare and performance.

Whether high-pressure cooling, low-pressure cooling, pad cooling or our energy-efficient gravel heat exchanger system – we design the perfect solution for every barn concept.

Your advantages at a glance:

  • Effective reduction of heat stress
  • Improved animal comfort, activity and feed intake
  • Stable climate conditions during extreme temperatures
  • Uniform temperature distribution throughout the barn
  • Reduced performance losses during summer periods
  • Integration with existing ventilation systems
  • Automatic control through modern climate computers
  • Energy-efficient solutions for new buildings and renovations

Our systems:

High & low pressure cooling

Targeted cooling exactly where it is needed.

Finely atomized water removes heat from the barn air through evaporation and provides fast and efficient temperature reduction.

Benefits:
  • Very fine water distribution for maximum evaporation
  • Effective cooling of barn air
  • Reduction of dust levels
  • Improved air quality
  • Individual cooling zones possible
  • Ideal for sow, piglet and finishing barns
  • Automatic adjustment according to temperature and humidity

Pad cooling – natural cooling of incoming air

With pad cooling, warm outside air is cooled before entering the barn. The air passes through humidified cooling elements and reaches the animal area at a reduced temperature.

  • Cooling of the complete fresh air supply
  • Very uniform barn climate
  • Perfect for high ventilation capacities
  • Ideal combination with tunnel and negative pressure ventilation systems
  • Low energy consumption through evaporative cooling
  • High cooling performance during summer ventilation

Gravel heat exchanger – natural cooling with stored earth energy

The gravel heat exchanger uses the stable temperature of the ground as a natural energy storage system.

Fresh outside air passes through the system and is naturally cooled during summer. In winter, the system can preheat incoming air.

Benefits:
  • Sustainable cooling without active refrigeration
  • Use of natural ground energy
  • Reduction of extreme temperature peaks
  • Cooling in summer – preheating in winter
  • Very low operating costs
  • Perfect combination with underfloor air inlet systems
  • Constant animal-friendly climate throughout the year

Intelligent control for maximum efficiency

Our cooling solutions operate perfectly together with the complete barn climate system.

Control possibilities:
  • Automatic climate computer operation
  • Activation according to temperature and humidity
  • Adjustment based on animal age and climate curves
  • Combination with ventilation, heating and air inlet systems
  • Remote monitoring and control via app possible
  • Alarm functions for maximum operational safety

We offer:

  • Individual planning for every barn concept
  • Combination of different cooling technologies
  • Perfect coordination between cooling, ventilation and heating
  • Solutions for new barns and modernization projects
  • Decades of experience in professional livestock climate technology

Your advantage:

More animal comfort. Less heat stress. Better performance.

With our cooling solutions we create a stable barn climate for the farming of today and tomorrow.
