Our CGU systems provide an efficient, compliant solution for on-farm stunning, depletion or depopulation. They are scalable and can meet the demands of any farm, whatever the size.
The CGUs are designed with the highest standards of animal welfare in mind and are fully compliant with EU 1099/2009 and UK WATOK 2015 legislation.
To ensure gas exposure regulatory requirements are being met, our industry-leading CGUs should be used along with Livetec’s Smart Oxygen Meter (SOM). Poultry owners can rest-assured that Livetec systems will keep their stunning and culling operations running smoothly with complete compliance.
When mounted to the unit, the Smart Oxygen Meter automatically controls the flow of and records data throughout the whole process. It’s very easy to operate. The only requirement of the operator is to start, and then confirm the end of each cycle. It safeguards the wellbeing of the livestock and the operator.
To ensure the welfare of the birds, the control system has audio and visual alarms along with a fail-safe emergency stop function.
The birds are taken directly from their housing, reducing stress, and placed in ventilated modules or crates that are then placed into the chamber. A gas mixture is then released into the unit, flushing out the oxygen and completing the process.
