7 Key Features & Benefits

1. Revolutionary Interchangeable Bucket Design

The signature innovation of the DTS/FTS series is the interchangeable bucket system. The same HDPE container can be configured as either a feeder (with feed-specific dispensing geometry) or a drinker (with water-level control features). This interchangeability offers unprecedented operational flexibility: farms can convert unused drinkers to feeders during feed transitions, or repurpose feeders as emergency water sources during system maintenance. For distributors, this means reduced SKU complexity and inventory efficiency. For farmers, it means maximum utility from every unit purchased.

2. Elevated 9cm Leg Design for Contamination Prevention

Traditional ground-level feeders and drinkers inevitably become contaminated with litter, droppings, and dust as birds walk through them. The DTS/FTS series solves this problem with a built-in 9cm leg system that elevates the feeding and drinking surface above floor level. This elevation dramatically reduces bacterial contamination, keeps feed drier and cleaner, maintains water quality longer between changes, and improves overall flock health outcomes. The elevated position also makes equipment easier for farm staff to access during daily routines.

3. Europe Market Design Aesthetic

The DTS/FTS series was developed with European market preferences in mind, featuring clean lines, modern proportions, and a professional appearance that reflects well on operations during customer visits or regulatory inspections. The design prioritizes both form and function — the smooth surfaces are easy to clean, the rounded edges prevent injury to birds, and the overall visual coherence creates a sense of quality and attention to detail that distinguishes professional operations from amateur setups.

4. Dual Capacity Options (3L & 5L) for Flexible Flock Management

The series offers two capacity tiers across both feeder and drinker types. The 3-liter models (DTS-3 at 37cm height, FTS-3 at 37cm height) serve smaller flocks, starter houses, and supplementary feeding stations. The 5-liter models (DTS-5 at 44cm height, FTS-5 at 44cm height) accommodate larger groups, grow-out houses, and primary feeding lines. This dual-capacity approach allows farms to standardize on one product family while right-sizing equipment for each specific application.

5. 100% Virgin HDPE for Food Safety & Durability

Every DTS/FTS unit is molded from food-grade virgin HDPE, ensuring complete safety for both feed and water delivery. The material is BPA-free, non-toxic, and resistant to the common chemicals used in poultry house sanitation programs. Virgin HDPE also delivers superior UV stability for semi-exposed installations, excellent impact resistance for daily handling, and a smooth surface finish that resists bacterial adhesion and algae growth. Unlike recycled plastics that may contain unknown contaminants, virgin material provides consistent quality batch after batch.

6. Any Color Customization for Brand Identity & Operational Coding

Jinlong offers complete color customization for the entire DTS/FTS series. Farms can match equipment to corporate branding, implement color-coded feeding systems (different colors for starter, grower, and finisher feeds), or simply coordinate with existing facility aesthetics. Color is achieved through pigment masterbatch compounded into the virgin resin during manufacturing — not surface painting — ensuring permanent, fade-resistant color that will not chip, peel, or wear off over years of use.

7. Stable Quality with Good Configuration Parts

The DTS/FTS series is assembled with carefully selected configuration parts that ensure reliable daily operation. The leg attachment points are reinforced to withstand the dynamic loads of birds perching and moving around the equipment. The bucket-to-base connection features a secure locking mechanism that prevents accidental separation during use. The feed dispensing ports and water level controls are precision-molded for consistent performance. These quality details translate to fewer field failures, reduced maintenance, and longer service life.

Why Choose Jinlong DTS/FTS Elevated Series?

The Interchangeable Advantage

No other poultry equipment manufacturer offers the bucket interchangeability found in the Jinlong DTS/FTS series. This single feature transforms how farms think about feeding and drinking infrastructure. Instead of maintaining separate inventories of feeders and drinkers, farms can stock interchangeable units and configure them as needed. During flock transitions, equipment can be repurposed rather than stored. During emergencies, drinkers can become feeders and vice versa. For distributors, this innovation simplifies product lines and reduces the number of SKUs required to serve customer needs comprehensively.

Elevated Hygiene = Better Flock Performance

The 9cm elevation is not merely a design feature — it is a health management tool. By keeping feed and water above the litter layer, the DTS/FTS series significantly reduces exposure to pathogens, parasites, and contaminants that thrive in poultry house bedding. Cleaner feed means better nutrient absorption. Cleaner water means improved hydration and reduced disease pressure. The cumulative effect of these improvements translates to better growth rates, improved feed conversion, and lower mortality — outcomes that directly impact farm profitability.

European Design Standards

The Europe market design influence is evident in every aspect of the DTS/FTS series. The proportions are refined, the surfaces are smooth and easy to sanitize, and the overall aesthetic communicates quality and professionalism. For farms that welcome visitors, inspectors, or potential buyers, equipment appearance matters. The DTS/FTS series helps create the impression of a well-managed, modern operation that takes pride in its facilities and animal care standards.

Complete System from One Source

With four models covering both feeding and drinking functions in two capacity sizes, the DTS/FTS series allows farms to source their complete elevated feeding and drinking infrastructure from a single trusted manufacturer. This simplifies procurement, ensures consistent quality and color matching across all equipment, and provides a single point of contact for support, warranty, and replacement parts. For operations building new facilities or upgrading existing ones, the DTS/FTS series offers a turnkey solution.

Applications & Use Cases

The Jinlong DTS/FTS elevated series serves diverse poultry farming applications:

Commercial Broiler Grow-Out Houses

In floor-rearing broiler operations, the elevated design of the DTS/FTS series keeps feed and water accessible while minimizing contamination from litter and droppings. The 9cm leg height is sufficient to clear typical bedding depths while remaining stable and accessible to birds of all sizes. The 5-liter models serve as primary stations, while 3-liter units provide supplementary coverage in larger houses.

Layer Cage Systems & Aviaries

For cage-based layer operations, the DTS/FTS series serves as an excellent backup or supplementary feeding and drinking system. Positioned outside cage rows, the elevated design allows birds to access feed and water through cage wire without equipment sitting directly in waste accumulation zones. The interchangeable buckets mean farms can quickly adapt equipment between feeding and watering needs during system maintenance or flock transitions.

Breeder Farm Operations

Breeder facilities require precise feed and water management to maintain optimal body condition. The elevated DTS/FTS design supports these protocols by keeping feed fresh and water clean, reducing the variables that can affect breeder performance. Color coding can help distinguish between different feed types or medication schedules. The 3-liter models are well-suited to the smaller group sizes typical of breeder housing.

Starter & Brooder Houses

Young chicks benefit from the clean, elevated feeding and drinking surfaces provided by the DTS/FTS series. The 3-liter capacity is appropriate for starter flocks, and the 37cm height is accessible to day-old chicks while still providing room for growth. The contamination prevention feature is especially valuable for young birds with developing immune systems.

Backyard & Small-Scale Poultry Keeping

Hobbyists and small-scale producers appreciate the professional-grade quality and modern appearance of the DTS/FTS series. The elevated design reduces daily cleaning requirements, and the interchangeable buckets provide flexibility that simpler equipment cannot match. The any-color option allows backyard keepers to coordinate equipment with coop aesthetics or personal preferences.

Show & Exhibition Poultry

For exhibition breeders and show poultry enthusiasts, equipment appearance matters. The European design aesthetic of the DTS/FTS series complements well-maintained show facilities. The elevated design keeps birds cleaner by reducing contact with soiled feed and water, helping maintain the pristine plumage condition required for competitive showing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: How does the interchangeable bucket system work?

A: The DTS/FTS bucket is designed with a universal attachment interface that connects to both feeder and drinker base units. To convert a feeder to a drinker (or vice versa), simply unlock the bucket from its current base, remove the internal dispensing component, install the appropriate component for the new function, and attach the bucket to the new base. The process takes less than one minute and requires no tools. This interchangeability is protected by Jinlong’s proprietary design.

Q2: Will the 9cm leg height work with deep litter systems?

A: Yes, the 9cm elevation is designed to clear typical poultry house litter depths of 5-8cm. For operations using exceptionally deep litter (10cm+), the elevated design still provides significant contamination reduction compared to ground-level equipment. The legs are stable and wide-based to prevent tipping on soft litter surfaces. If your litter depth exceeds 9cm, consider placing a flat board or paver under the legs for additional support.

Q3: Are DTS/FTS units compatible with automated feeding systems?

A: The DTS/FTS series is designed primarily as standalone manual feeding and drinking equipment. However, many farms successfully integrate them alongside automated systems as backup stations, medication delivery points, or specialty feed dispensers. The elevated design makes them particularly useful in areas where automated equipment cannot reach or during maintenance periods when primary systems are offline.

Q4: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

A: Standard packing is 100 sets per carton. MOQ typically starts at one carton per model, with volume discounts available for larger orders. Because the DTS/FTS series includes four distinct models, mixed-container orders are encouraged to maximize shipping efficiency and achieve better pricing. Contact Jinlong for specific MOQ and pricing based on your requirements.

Q5: How do I clean and maintain DTS/FTS equipment?

A: Cleaning is straightforward thanks to the smooth HDPE surfaces and detachable bucket design. Remove the bucket from the base, empty contents, and scrub with a brush and mild detergent or poultry-safe disinfectant. The elevated legs can be wiped clean separately. Rinse all components thoroughly and allow to air dry before reassembly. The virgin HDPE material is resistant to common farm chemicals and will not degrade with regular sanitization.

Q6: Can I use different colors for feeders and drinkers?

A: Absolutely. Many customers choose one color for all feeders (e.g., red) and another color for all drinkers (e.g., blue) to create instant visual identification. This color coding helps farm staff quickly locate and service equipment, reduces the risk of mixing feed and water components, and supports biosecurity protocols by making it easy to track which equipment has been cleaned and which has not. Any color combination is available for bulk orders.
