How they work: Stainless steel Lixit nipples are self-service lever operated tilt valves. The water flows under the tilted valve head and through the hollow lever into the animals mouth. The flow is gentle water release; it shuts off automatically when control lever is released. Excellent for swine, goats, dogs, sheep, primates and other zoo animals.
Easy to Install: Apply thread sealant and install your Water Nipple tilted downwardly in a 1/2" pipe filling about shoulder high to the animal.
Adjustable Water Flow: Before installing, remove filter screen and preset the desired water flow by inserting the appropriate flow control orifice. Use without an orifice for 10 psi pressure or less; use the large orifice for pressure between 10 and 59 PSI and use the small orifice for 60 psi or more.
Flow Rates: Flow rates using 40psi are as follows: small orifice = 1 pint per minute, Large orifice = 1 1/2 quarts per minute, no orifice = 1 gallon per minute.
Animal Training: Simply remove all available water, then show the installed Water Nipple to the animal(s) by moving the nipple control and letting water trickle out. Most animals will immediately start sniffing, nuzzeling and lickign the hollow water-filled nipple control and learn to drink from it. If not, wait until thirsty and demonstrate again. During the waiting period leave the nipple loosely attached so water will seep past the threads and slowly drip. The dripping water will attract the animal(s) back to the Nipple for self training. Tighten securely when training is assured. 5-Year Warranty
