Eliminate
stray voltage
The Agrivolt system is a modular system designed to neutralize return current at 60Hz from internal and external sources to the livestock facility. It cancels the stray current by injecting a current inverted by 180° opposed to the current flowing on the ground. Best analogy to its working principles would be 'noise cancelling' headphone.
The Agrivolt system can be installed on any electrical network in North America and any type of livestock facility.

WHAT IS STRAY VOLTAGE AND WHERE DOES IT COME FROM ?
Electrical network and equipment found on livestock farms are constantly evolving. Electrical loads have grown significantly and the automation of
farms has led to non-linear loads such as variable-speed drive, sophisticated ventilation and electronic lighting. These elements leak current, which flows
on the farm's grounding network.
The presence of electric current in the animal environment, regardless of the source, generates stress. Over time, this stress can affect the immune system. A weakened immune system makes the animal more prone to diseases and consequently affects its well-being and performance.
