Why to made prototype?

In previous model of sprouter unit is not properly working in winter season. In winter season temperature, humidity and air movement are not properly maintain in previous model. Therefore, I have decided that to maintain the temperature with the help of foam sheet. The foam is the insulating material. Therefore model will cover by foam sheet, so as to maintain the temperature.

Model

Steps –

  1. First dimensions of structure were taken.
  2. I had used a foam sheet available in doam and they are cut into the proper dimension with the help of zic saw and heat gun.
  3. I had made “T” shape hooks for attaching purpose of foam sheet, they are joint with the help of spot welding and points are made sharp with the help of grander machine.
  4. Then the foam sheets are attached to the all sides of structure and door is made by polythene paper.
  5. Then the six trays were used for the holding seed gains and bottom side tray provides the water holding purpose. Trays are available in previous structure.
  6. Also submersible pump of 3 M maximum head, 1200 LPH maximum discharge, bubbler and sprinkler available in previous model. Then they are fixed in to the structure.
  7. After that, maximum amount of water was add in bottom water holding tray and pump was place in that bottom tray as shown in fig.
  8. Aquarium bubbler (provide more oxygen in water) place in the bottom tray.
