Classification and Main Applications of Aquaculture Equipment

In most parts of our country, there has been a long development process from traditional aquaculture to the use of specialized aquaculture equipment. With the rise of aquaculture equipment, it has developed rapidly. In recent years, various new aquaculture devices have continuously emerged, with a wide variety of types and models, serving different applications, demonstrating that aquaculture equipment has brought more benefits and convenience to farmers.

1. Drainage and Irrigation Equipment

In facility aquaculture, the main drainage and irrigation equipment is the water pump, which includes centrifugal pumps, submersible pumps, axial flow pumps, mixed flow pumps, deep well pumps, etc. The purpose of the water pump is to transport fluids, mainly to inject and drain water in ponds, ensuring different water level requirements for fish at various growth stages; injecting river water or deep well water to adjust water temperature; injecting new water to increase dissolved oxygen levels in the water, improve pond water transparency, enhance photosynthesis in the pond, and increase primary productivity; draining excess and aging water from the pond to regulate water quality, salinity, and pH, providing fish with a suitable living environment.

2. Oxygenation Equipment

Oxygenation equipment is essential for facility aquaculture. There are many types, mainly including microporous aeration oxygenation, impeller oxygenators, waterwheel oxygenators, inflatable oxygenators, jet oxygenators, and spray oxygenators. The main purpose of oxygenation equipment is to increase the dissolved oxygen content in the water by stirring the water body and promoting the circulation of water, achieving the effects of oxygenation and improving water quality.

3. Pond Cleaning Equipment

In ponds that need to be dried, engineering machinery such as bulldozers, excavators, and transport machines are mainly used to improve the efficiency of pond cleaning. In the cleaning of wet ponds, dredging machinery is mainly used, commonly used dredging machinery includes amphibious dredgers, towed dredgers, high-pressure water cleaning machines, pond digging units, and underwater cleaning machines, etc. Their main function is to cut, collect, extract, and transport the sludge from the fish pond to a specific location.

4. Feeding Equipment

Feeding machines are named based on the feeding method, including centrifugal feeding machines, air-blown feeding machines, and drop feeding machines; feeding machines named based on the feeding method include vibrating feeding machines, flap feeding machines, and screw feeding machines, etc. Feeding machines can automatically feed at regular intervals, quantities, and points, evenly, saving labor and time, reducing feed waste, and protecting the water environment.
5. Water Quality Purification Equipment

In facility aquaculture, water quality purification mainly uses biological filters, activated filters, and water quality purification machinery, such as biological rotating discs, activated carbon water filtration devices, water aerators, and ozone disinfection oxygenation machines, etc. Water quality purification equipment can purify and treat harmful substances such as organic matter and ammonia nitrogen in the water.

6. Water Quality Testing Instruments

Water quality testing instruments mainly include dissolved oxygen meters, water thermometers, ammonia testers, etc., used to detect whether the pond water quality meets fishery water quality standards.

7. Water Temperature Control Equipment
Water temperature control equipment includes boiler systems, electric heaters, solar heaters, heat pumps, heat exchangers, and water temperature automatic control systems, etc. The main function is to regulate the water temperature in fish ponds, promoting fish to grow rapidly at optimal water temperatures.

8. Aquaculture Seedling Equipment

Aquaculture seedling equipment includes spawning devices, incubation tanks, fish nets, fish screens, net cages, fish fry counters, oxygen tanks, etc., used for cultivating and collecting fish fry.

9. Fishing Equipment

Fishing equipment includes electric fish driving machines, electric pulse devices, air curtain fish driving devices, electric fish driving boats, blocking net boats, various winches, net lifting machines, and fish suction devices, etc., used for driving, catching, and lifting fish.

10. Fish Transportation Equipment

Fish transportation equipment includes various live fish transport vehicles and boats, refrigerated vehicles and boats, as well as plastic fish baskets, etc., used for preserving fish and transporting live fish.

11. Epidemic Prevention and Disinfection Equipment

The epidemic prevention and disinfection equipment for facility aquaculture mainly includes spray disinfection machinery, etc.
Changchi Technology mainly produces aquaculture equipment, such as:Protein Separators, Biochemical Filters,Microfiltration Machines, Sand Tanks,High-Efficiency Dissolved Oxygen Devices, Ozone Generators, and other aquaculture equipment.
