Abstract

The changeable temperatures in Malaysia today effect the quail's performance. Thus, there are a lot of requests from the broiler industry to preserve great environment conditions by setting up the controlling system, for example, the current evaporative cooling system that can control the temperature and humidity in a poultry house. In any case, there is an issue in an approach to coordinate the total cooling pad region to the installed exhaust fan capacity so that the desired cooling effectiveness is accomplished. In perspective of this, a controlling system based on PLC application that can control fans and lamps will be developed to control temperature and humidity of the poultry house. With this project, the temperature and humidity of quail poultry house were controlled in substantial scale. The controlling system will be functioned when the sensor reach the certain temperature and humidity. When the temperature and humidity sensor sense the temperature and humidity in the poultry house is higher than the maximum range of temperature and humidity, the DC fan will turn ON. Otherwise, when the temperature and humidity is below the minimum temperature and humidity range, the lamp will turn ON. In order to build this project, there are some important component that will be used such as PLC, microcontroller, DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor, fan, lamp and other components that will be described in this report. The purpose of this document is to report the investigation and performance results of the builder-up prototype dealing with temperature and humidity control of poultry house.
