and — Partnering for Better Animal Health through Organic Acids in Drinking Water
VITALAC and DOSATRON are launching an information campaign on the use of organic acids via drinking water.
Benefit from VITALAC’s expertise, a pioneer in acidifiers that help reduce antibiotic use in pig and poultry farming. The Vitacid range is designed to optimize digestive health and nutrient absorption, whether applied through drinking water, liquid feed, or dry feed. Consistent use supports gut integrity, improves feed efficiency, and enhances overall animal performance.
Precision Dosing with the DOSATRON's D3WL3000VFK
The DOSATRON D3WL3000VFK dosing pump ensures accurate and continuous dosing of pure organic acids directly from the original container into livestock drinking water systems.
Designed for swine, poultry, and other livestock, it promotes gut health and biosecurity with fully autonomous operation — no electricity required.
Key Features
• Doses pure organic acid directly from the original container — adjustable from 0.03% (0.3 ml/L) up to 0.3% (3 ml/L).
• Self-priming and fully water driven, with a flow range of 10 to 3000 L/h.
• Proportional dosing to water consumption — no external water meter required.
• Suitable for up to 100,000 broilers, 1000 sows, 1500 fattening pigs, or 2,000 growers.
• Provides uniform and constant dosing even during pressure fluctuations or variable low to peak water flow.
• Starts at very low flow rates, ideal for young piglets during the post-weaning phase — a critical period for diarrhoea prevention.
• Regular use with proper organic acids supports digestive balance and animal health.
• Easy maintenance — tool-free, quick servicing directly on-site
