1. Case Study (Export Experience)
Client: AVI PRO (Livestock & Poultry Company)
Destination: Republic of Mali (International Dialing Code: +223)
Operating Environment: High-ambient West African tropical climate, dusty road conditions, long-distance transport between hatcheries and distribution farms.
Operational Challenge: Day-old chicks generate intense metabolic heat and moisture while requiring a steady temperature range of 28°C–32°C. Long-distance transit in high ambient heat without proper ventilation leads to severe mortality rates.
Customized Solution:
Chassis & Body: Heavy-duty CLW dedicated livestock chassis with a lightweight insulated body.
Temperature Control: Roof-mounted Kaida refrigeration/heating unit to maintain precise internal temperatures.
Ventilation: Rear-mounted forced exhaust fans combined with multi-stage side ventilation hatches to eliminate heat spots and ensure fresh airflow.
Auxiliary Power: Integrated Zhanlong (Yipu Power) air-cooled diesel generator to ensure continuous climate control and ventilation during vehicle idle or overnight stops.

3. Buyer's Guide
When procuring a specialized day-old chick transport truck, consider the following key factors:
Calculate Transport Capacity:
Determine chick box dimensions (standard plastic chick crates: 6000 *4000*1800 mm.
Ensure internal box height and floor layout allow proper stacking with adequate air-gap channels.
Climate Control Requirements:
Ambient Heat vs. Cold: Select a refrigeration unit with dual heating/cooling capabilities if operating across varying seasons.
Backup Power: Ensure an auxiliary diesel generator is included so ventilation and temperature control remain active during engine shutdown or custom inspections.
Ventilation Design:
Verify that the vehicle features both forced air extraction (exhaust fans) and passive side shutters to avoid carbon dioxide build-up and localized hot spots.
Sanitation & Hygiene:
Choose internal wall materials (such as smooth fiberglass or stainless steel) that withstand frequent high-pressure washdowns and chemical disinfection.

4. Maintenance Guide
Daily Inspections (Before & After Every Trip)
Refrigeration & Heating Unit: Check refrigerant levels, belt tension, and test run the unit to verify cooling/heating response prior to loading.
Auxiliary Generator: Check diesel engine oil level, fuel supply, and clean the air filter element.
Ventilation Fans: Inspect exhaust fan blades and protective grilles for blockages or feathers.
Periodic Maintenance
Every 100 Operating Hours (Generator): Change engine oil, check terminal connections, and clear dust from air-cooling fins.
Every Month: Inspect door rubber seals for wear to prevent thermal leakage.
Disinfection Protocol: Thoroughly wash and sanitize the interior box using non-corrosive disinfectant after every transport cycle to prevent disease transmission.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: How does the truck maintain temperature when the main vehicle engine is turned off?
A: The truck is equipped with a dedicated Yipu Power air-cooled diesel generator. When the truck engine is off, the generator powers the Kaida refrigeration unit and ventilation exhaust fans independently.
Q2: What is the optimal temperature range inside the box during transport?
A: For day-old chicks, internal temperature is typically maintained between 28°C and 32°C , depending on crate density and ambient conditions.
Q3: Can side ventilation hatches be adjusted according to weather conditions?
A: Yes, the side hatches can be manually opened or secured closed during transit to balance fresh air intake with temperature control.
Q4: How do you clean and disinfect the cargo box?
A: The insulated FRP/stainless steel interior walls and drainage outlets allow high-pressure water washing and chemical spraying without damaging the insulation layer.
