Light Trap


Housing frame made of strong pre-coated and galvanised sheet-steel.
Vanes made of high resistance polypropylene with protection.
Simple and easy installation.
Special clips supplied for easy coupling with Star Agri fan housing.
Only one person is needed to mount or to remove the light filter.
Special design of vertical plastic vane media with reduced pressure drop.
Air passing through the vertical vanes ensures a self-cleaning feature.
A unique light reduction performance coupled with low pressure drop. Light reduction, from exterior values of 7,000 lux, to interior values of 0.04 lux, with a corresponding pressure drop of 2.5 Pa at an air-velocity of 1.5 m/s.
Every light filter package individually checked for quality.
A light filter is the ideal equipment required to reduce the light ingress through air stream passages. A typical example is the poultry industry. In order to obtain optimal breeder-bird performance in pullet houses, both light intensity and the number of light hours each day must be precisely controlled.
By controlling lighting it is possible for breeder birds to reach sexual maturity at the optimal time and therefore to stimulate the beginning of egg-production.
LF light filter is constructed of high grade poly-propylene resistant to wear and tear, ultra violet rays from the sun, as well as the strong high-pressure washers used in farm cleaning techniques. The square frame housing the light filter vanes or media, is made of a strong epoxy precoated and galvanised sheet-steel.
Special designed clips provided with each kit, allow the mounting of a light filter directlyon to a Star Agri fan, on the suction side of the fan, as a perfect match in air-flow, efficiency and light lux reduction.

Plastic waves and housing

The vertical plastic vanes are designed for laminar air-flow in order to avoid any turbulence resulting in higher than necessary pressure-drop while air passes through them. When installed correctly in the vertical configuration, the vanes assure long lasting operation without dust build up allowing the pressure-drop to remain constant. Light filters are delivered in knock down kit form in order to reduce transportation cost and possible damages during transport, and do not require the necessary use of glues or chemicals in assembling the filters. The vanes are equipped with self-locking clips that are utilized by simply pushing two vanes together. A complete light filter can be mounted in less than 20 minutes.
