Hog Slat Inc. Newton Grove, NC USA March 2022 5 Ventilation Systems Overview The mechanically actuated HSIN3000C-I ceiling inlet is designed to maximize the volume and throw of air pulled from the attic of a barn in order to improve air quality conditions. It was also designed to seal tightly in order to help prevent moisture from entering the attic space. The HSIN3000C-I inlet has been validated through the use of sophisticated computational fluid dynamic software, testing in the Hog Slat wind tunnel, and testing in live animal barns. The pieces of reflective insulation attached to the doors provide some additional insulation and can help reduce condensation in environments where extreme temperature differences exist. The reflective insulation is not shown in the following pictures and diagrams. Performance Data The HSIN3000C-I two-door inlet has been evaluated a multiple of ways in order to determine the air flow characteristics that can be expected under different conditions. The results below depict the projected cubic feet per minute based on simulations conducted using advanced computational modeling software. Table 1: CFM Pull Through HSIN3000C Ceiling Inlet Opening Width (In) Static Pressure (In, H2O) 0.05 0.1 0.125 0.15 1 300 450 500 550 2 650 950 1050 1150 5 1400 1950 2200 2400 8 1950 2750 3100 3400 Fully Open (11) 2250 3250 3600 3950 *Projected Data ONLY Pre-Installation Requirements Install the ceiling inlet so that there is enough clearance between the inlet and any nearby heater. Check the heater manufacturer’s product manual for the minimum allowable distance between the heater and other materials. Do not install a ceiling inlet directly over a feeder. Condensation may form on the outside of the inlet and drip into the feed. Do not leave the ceiling inlet sitting in direct sun light for long periods of time. Do not place temperature sensors directly in the path of the air flow from the ceiling inlet. Install the inlet system so that the ceiling inlets will not interfere with feed lines, cables, water lines, or other equipment in the barn. Outside Dimensions (Figure 1)

Hog Slat Inc. Newton Grove, NC USA March 2022 8 Ventilation Systems Ceiling Inlet Installation: STEP 1: Determine the inlet location. The location should be decided based on equal spacing of the number of inlets going into the barn and the location of other components (i.e. feed lines, gas lines, etc.). Step 2: Construct a 25 inch X 27 ½ inch rough opening frame for the ceiling inlet using the trusses for support. Form an outer frame using 2X4 boards flushed with the bottom of the truss. Cut a hole in the ceiling if necessary. Form the inner frame using treated 2X6 boards. The 2X6 frame should hang at least 1 inch below the bottom of the trusses. Frame Top View (Figure 3) Frame Bottom/Side View (Figure 4)
Hog Slat Inc. Newton Grove, NC USA March 2022 9 Ventilation Systems STEP 3: Pull the tabs on the end of the insulation stop through the slot located on the other end of the insulation stop to form a rectangle. Fold the corner of the insulation stop so that the tabs are tucked into the inside of the rectangle. Folded Insulation Stop (Figure 5) Step 4: Slide the insulation stop inside of the frame. Fasten the insulation stop to the frame using staples, nails, or screws (not provided). Leave a small gap between the lower edge of the 2X6 framing and the bottom edge of insulation stop to avoid interference with the ceiling inlet. Insulation Stop Bottom/Side View (Figure 6)
Hog Slat Inc. Newton Grove, NC USA March 2022 10 Ventilation Systems STEP 5: Fasten the ceiling inlet to the 2X6 boards using the eight two-inch screws (80503) provided. There are indentations on the outermost surface of the plastic frame which mark the placement of the screws. Secure the screws in the inside indentations on both sides first. Secure the screws in the outside corner indentions last in order to prevent bowing or warping of the frame. Attachment to Ceiling (Figure 7) Step 6: Apply caulk to the inside edge where the bottom of the wood frame comes into contact with the top of the ceiling inlet. Caulk Along Edge (Figure 8)
Hog Slat Inc. Newton Grove, NC USA March 2022 11 Ventilation Systems Step 7: Run a 1/8 inch diameter stainless steel rod (HS17111 or HS17112) through the center holes of the line of inlets. The rod should pass through both of the eye bolts in each inlet. Step 8: Attach the rod (HS17111 or HS17112) to the cable that runs to the actuator and winch system. Bend the end of the rod to form a loop. Clamp the loop tightly using two 1/8 inch cable clamps (617321). Pull the cable through the loop and clamp the cable using an appropriately sized cable clamps. Route the other end of the cable to the actuation system. Cable and Rod Connection (Figure 10) The rod can also be clamped directly to a pulley going to the actuator in some cases if the rod, actuation system, and pulley are in direct alignment with each other. Pulley and Rod Connection (Figure 11) Rod through Inlets (Figure 9)
Hog Slat Inc. Newton Grove, NC USA March 2022 12 Ventilation Systems Step 9: Bend the other end of the stainless steel rod (HS17111 or HS17112) into a “J-shape” (See Figure A) or form a closed loop as shown in Figure 10 and Figure 11 in Step 8. Hook one end of the spring (HSAP-2877) to the end of the rod. Connect the other end of the spring to an eye hook (606655) anchored in a stud aligned with the spring and rod. Spring Connection to Wall (Figure 12) If a stud is not in line with the ceiling inlets, then the eye hook (606655) can be attached to the ceiling. Fasten a 2X8 Board between the trusses and anchor the eye hook into the board. Spring Connection to Ceiling (Figure 13)
Hog Slat Inc. Newton Grove, NC USA March 2022 13 Ventilation Systems Step 8: Remove the two pieces of 1/8 inch diameter rope (62040-1000) and the cable clamp (617321) from the hardware bag included with the inlet. Open the inlet doors if they are not already open. Secure the two pieces of rope to the steel rod with the clamp. The clamp should be located 1-3 inches away from the eye bolt furthest away from the actuator. Pull the two pieces of rope through the eye bolt. Step 9: Pull each piece of rope through the blue loop of the latch mount and cable guide (HSI1-3), slide it through the center hole in the inlet doors, and secure it tightly in the side entry cleat (HSI1-7). Figures 15 and 16 are shown with the inlet door closed for clarity. Rope Connection to Rod (Figure 14) Side Entry Cleat (Figure 16) Rope through Blue Loop (Figure 15) NOTE: There are two eyebolts so that the inlet can be oriented in either direction when attached to the ceiling.
Hog Slat Inc. Newton Grove, NC USA March 2022 14 Ventilation Systems IMPORTANT: Make sure that all ropes are looped through the same eyebolt in all inlets, and make sure that they are looped through the eye bolt furthest from the actuation system. The actuation system must pull the doors closed when activated. To Actuator Inlet Connected and Fully Open (Figure 17) Inlet Pulled Closed (Figure 18)
Hog Slat Inc. Newton Grove, NC USA March 2022 15 Ventilation Systems Step 12: Every inlet has two preinstalled storm latches (HSI1-6). The latch should be in the open position when the inlets are being used. Close the latches when the doors should not open. Latch View (Figure 19) Step 13: Make any necessary adjustments to the inlets and/or the actuation system to ensure that inlets close at the same time and open to the correct width at the desired pressure.
Hog Slat Inc. Newton Grove, NC USA March 2022 16 Ventilation Systems Connection to Actuation System Selecting an Actuation System: Either the GrowerSELECT curtain machine (HS583E) or the linear actuator (HS667-24) can be used to actuate the ceiling inlet system in conjunction with the winch (DL61737). HS667-24 Linear Actuator (Figure 21) Max Load: 772 lbs Max Speed: 1/4” per second Stroke Length: 24” HS583E Curtain Machine (Figure 20) Max Load: 2,000 lbs Max Speed: 15 RPM Length: 24” Note: The rating is based on HS583E-2415. Other models can be used and will have a different rating.
Hog Slat Inc. Newton Grove, NC USA March 2022 17 Ventilation Systems Pulley Systems: The ceiling inlet and actuation system can be set up to run in a 1:1 or a 2:1 pulley system. The 1:1 configurations allows for shorter open/close times. The 2:1 configuration allows for a greater load capacity. Figures 22 and 23 provide an explanation of both systems. 1:1 Ratio (Figure 22) 1:1 Ratio Direct Pull (Figure 23) 2:1 Ratio (Figure 24) For each (1) inch travel of the machine there is (1) inch travel of the Load. 1,000lb max each side = 2,000lb total load. For each (2) inch travel of the machine there is (1) inch travel of the Load. 2,000 max each side = 4,000lb total load 2,000lb max 2,000lb max 1,000lb max 1,000lb max 2,000lb max For each (1) inch travel of the machine there is (1) inch travel of the Load. 2,000lb one side total load
