Fish transporting tank with automatic sluice

Fish transporting tank with automatic sluice by SDK is a specialist solution designed mainly for fish handling inside fish farms. The system is used for moving fish between ponds, loading fish into transport tanks, controlled unloading, sorting and everyday work with live fish.

The main advantage of this solution is wireless control of the sluice and oxygen supply. The operator can open the discharge flap and control fish flow without having to walk to the tank every time. This makes the work faster, easier and better organised.

What is the fish transporting tank with automatic sluice used for?

Fish tanks equipped with a wirelessly controlled pneumatic sluice are especially useful where fish have to be moved, transferred or directed to the next stage of work. This is not only a standard transport tank. It is mainly a practical working system for fish farms.

• for moving fish between ponds,
• for loading fish into transport tanks,
• for controlled unloading of live fish,
• for fish handling inside the farm,
• for harvesting, transfer and sorting work,
• for operations where fast operator reaction is important.

Wireless control of the sluice and oxygen

The tank has a convenient remote control that allows the operator to control the system directly from the working position. The operator can remotely open the discharge flap and switch oxygen on or off. This is very helpful during loading, when fish flow, water, oxygen and further transport have to be controlled at the same time.

The indicator light shows whether oxygen is switched on or the sluice is open. The oxygen flow regulator allows oxygen supply to be adjusted to the current conditions and the amount of fish in the tank.

Easier fish handling in fish farms

During everyday work in a fish farm, time, comfort and reduced manual operation are very important. The automatic sluice helps control the exact moment when fish leave the tank. The operator can activate the sluice when the next transport tank, pond or working station is ready.

This solution reduces disorder during work, improves loading organisation and allows fish to be handled more efficiently. It is especially useful with larger quantities of fish and when the work is divided into several stages.

Useful for loading fish into transport tanks

The fish transporting tank with automatic sluice works very well as a support system for loading fish into standard transport tanks. It can be used as a working tank from which fish are released in a controlled way. This makes the whole process more predictable and easier for the operator.

If the farm also uses fish transport tanks for live fish or fish transporting tanks without isolation, the automatic sluice system can significantly improve loading, unloading and internal fish transfer.

Who is this system designed for?

The fish transporting tank with automatic sluice is recommended mainly for fish farms that regularly carry out harvesting, stocking, sorting, transfers or fish transport between ponds. It is a solution for customers who want to speed up work and have better control over fish flow during handling.

The system can be adjusted to the individual working method. Depending on the needs, the tank can work with oxygen installation, discharge elements, frames, additional handles and other equipment for adjusting basins.

Solution adjusted to field work

SDK tanks can be used as independent working units or as part of a larger fish handling set. The layout and equipment can be selected according to the type of work, fish species, tank capacity and the operator’s working conditions.

On request, additional oxygenation solutions can also be used. In selected configurations, it is possible to install ceramic oxygen diffusers, selected according to the tank capacity and operating conditions.
