Benefits:
- The GeMeric
is a probe-based system that provides state-of-the-art measurement
of temperature and humidity conditions inside the setter or
hatcher with total reliability, and virtually instant response,
and transfer of information to the control box. Both the speed and
versatility of the measurements are vastly superior compared to
the limited functionality of thermostat based systems.
- Since the
GeMeric does not require thermostat feedback, it permits the
elimination of all mercury-based control elements other than the
over-temp alarm stat which may currently be in use in your setters
or hatchers. No over-temp probe is supplied with the GeMeric but
it does permit the continued use of any existing over-temp system.
- Temperature
and humidity (wet-bulb) measurements can be reliably maintained at
plus/minus one-tenth of a degree F when the probes are calibrated
in accordance with proper procedures and equipment available from
Chick Master.
- A cost
effective solution utilizing various elements from your current
control system provided all of the following elements are
reusable:
- Your
control cabinet must be structurally intact (not more than
surface rust recommended) and in accordance with current safety
codes and electrical requirements for your location;
- The power
distribution system in your control box—breakers or fuses,
circuit boards and wiring involved in the turning, fan movement,
lighting and supply of energy to your heating elements must be
in acceptable working order;
- Your
turning system will not be overridden by the GeMeric, so it must
be working properly and meeting your operational needs. Turning
options available in the Genesis IV and GeM controls are not
included with the GeMeric upgrade.
- Available
from stock in one or two zone models. The one zone system can be
used for setters or hatchers. The two zone system is particularly
well-suited for those Chick Master customers who have setters with
two heating zones with or without the split cooling upgrade option.
The GeMeric is fully compatible with any setter that has been or
will be upgraded with the split cooling feature.
- Clear
always-on visual display on the face of the upgrade box makes set
point and actual temperatures and humidity status available at the
touch of a finger or the glance of an eye!
- Easy to
install by hatchery maintenance personnel. Only six-to-ten wires to
connect to your existing panel, two or three probes to install in
the setter/hatcher and one box to affix to your front panel. Typical
installation takes less than one hour.
- After your
first successful installation, you will certainly choose not to
remove eggs from the setter being upgraded. Feeling comfortable?
Then, you don’t need to remove the eggs the first time either!
- Optional
compatible damper control kits are available to convert your Chick
Master setter to a powered damper if needed or desired.
- TempTune
feature introduced with the GeM series also incorporated in the
GeMeric. TempTune—a form of artificial intelligence—allows the
GeMeric to make maximum efficient use of energy in the control of
heating and cooling cycles.
- Multi-level
access control assists in assuring that only authorized personnel
make adjustments to operating parameters.
- All critical
components readily available from Chick Master or from Rockwell
International centers. NO custom boards!!
- Optional
Galaxy Lite and Hatchery Alarm package available for those
hatcheries looking to dramatically upgrade both the security and
information quality levels in their facilities. Ask for a brochure
explaining these features.
- Fully
compatible with the patented Chick Master alarm system to assure you
of the best possible protection for your eggs in the cost-effective
marketplace.
- Special heat
interlock control feature prevents humidity from running while heat
cycle is on. This promotes faster warm-up and better energy usage.
