What is the Aqua-Feeder standalone?
Aqua-Feeder standalone from Aquateknikk is a standalone feeding unit designed for individual tanks in land-based aquaculture facilities (such as RAS and flow-through systems).
Key Features and Functions:
Local Autonomy: Each unit has its own control system, logic, and data storage. This ensures that feeding continues uninterrupted even if network or central systems should fail.
Precise Dosing: Provides accurate control over feed amount ($\text{kg/min}$), dosing time, and interval per tank, which reduces feed waste and ensures uniform growth.
Full Traceability: Records and stores feeding data locally for documentation and audit trails.
Scalability: Can be used as a fully standalone unit per tank, but can also be integrated with overarching control systems if the facility requires it.
How the Solution Works in Practice
Feed Schedule Setup: The feed schedule is easily set with customized intervals, dosing time, and desired intensity.
Automatic Adjustment: Feeding is automatically adjusted based on water temperature and appetite factor.
Precise Dosing: A Variable Frequency Drive (VFD)-controlled motor doses the feed at a calibrated speed.
Complete Data Capture: Every feeding event is logged with a timestamp, duration, and delivery data.
Real-Time Monitoring: Operational status and alarms are displayed in real time.
Manual Control: The operator can manually override the system at any time during testing or in the event of deviations.
