Farm AirClean - Skov A/S

BIO Modul
The BIO Module is a module-based concept
where the quantity of air cleaning
units ordered is based on the number of
m 3 of housing air to be cleaned.
The idea behind the module-based filter
unit was to standardise the air cleaning
unit into prefabricated concept units.
They are of a very high quality and thus
ensuring the usual advantages: reliability
and reduction of product manufacturing
and mounting costs.
The cleaning units are available in capacities
ranging from 10 000 to 40 000 cubic
metres per hour. For instance, the BIO 3U
can clean 30 000 m 3 of air per hour, which
is equivalent to approx. 300 finisher pen
places according to Danish standards -
calculation is based on approx. 100 m 3 air/
hour/pig.

By basing the system on modules, SKOV
has made it easy for the pig producer to
implement the system in the construction
process. The cleaning modules can be
placed in the attic, next to the house or in
a cleaning room inside the house.
Contrary to other module systems available
on the market, this solution can be
delivered either fully assembled or to be
assembled on site. If the cleaning modules
are to be installed in an attic, assembly on
site can save the producer the removal of
most of the roofing sheets in connection
with the installation.

Experience has showed that it is important
to keep the filters clean. SKOV designed
an automatic filter washer for the cleaning
units. The washer starts at regular intervals
and cleans the filter so it does not clog.
DOL 256 Computer
Each air cleaning module is equipped with
a DOL 256 AirClean computer regulating
the air cleaning process in this particular
module. The decentralized control system
ensures optimum cleaning of the individual
section based on the actual requirement.
The computer is very simple and the
information level is confined to the data
that the producer considers to be most
important. On the computer display, the
producer can see whether the controller
is operative and the filter washer is active.
The controller will show an overview of
vital data such as water consumption,
alarms and operation time. This data can
also be shown in a 24-hour report or a
year-to-date report.
