Options for Frost Protection

Frost protection by Heating Element

If frost protection in case of Model 500/520 is desired, a heating element (24 V, 80 W) is fixed under the trough. In order to ensure a frost-free feed pipe, a frost protection heating cable 24 V, 20 W, 2 m (Ref. 101.0861), or a 24 V, 30 W, 3 m (Ref. 101.1863) is wrapped around the feed pipe and connected to the heating element in parallel to the power supply cable, coming from the transformer. The heating cable and the water line have to be insulated, however, additionally and protected against biting. For power supply a SUEVIA Transformer 230/24 V is necessary (see p. 26). For automatic switch on/off of transformer a thermostat (Ref. 101.0389) can be additionally installed (see p. 26).
  • For Model 500: Heating element (Ref. 131.0523), 24 V, 80 W, to maintain the water frost-protected in the trough
  • For Model 520: Heating element (Ref. 131.0524), 24 V, 80 W: installation of one or two heating elements is possible to maintain the water frost-protected in the double trough
 

Increased frost protection down to -35°C

Valve Heating (24 V, 7 W, 131.0527) can be additionally installed. Suited for Mod. 500 and Mod. 520.


Connection to a feed pipe

To ensure a frost-free feed pipe, a frost protection heating cable 24 V, 20 W, 2 m (Ref. 101.0861), or a 24 V, 30 W, 3 m (Ref. 101.1863) has to be used. The heating cable should be wrapped around the feed pipe and connected to the heating element of the drinker in parallel to the power supply cable, coming from the transformer. If this heating cable is installed on plastic pipes, make sure that this water pipe is suited for warm and cold water. For better heat distribution the water pipe has to be wrapped first with an aluminium adhesive tape (Ref. 101.1099).
 

Connection to a water circuit

  • In combination with a SUEVIA connection set for ¾" water circuits (Ref. 103.1984, 103.3004) an easy integration of Model 500/520 into a water circuit is possible! For connection to a water circuit we recommend SUEVIA heating units.
  • In order to prevent water in the bowl from freezing, use additionally a heating element 131.0523 or 131.0524. Transformer necessary!
  • For extremely cold areas a valve heating (24 V, 7 W, 131.0527) is recommended for increased frost protection.
