Simply a healthy stable climate with Lubratec® Smart

More animal welfare, less effort: the intelligent barn climate system for outdoor climate barns

Lubratec Smart is an intelligent barn climate system for agriculture that has been specially developed to meet the requirements of modern outdoor climate barns. It supports farmers in creating a healthy barn climate, sustainably improving animal welfare and reducing the daily workload at the same time. Precise measurement, intelligent control and automatic regulation create a barn climate that adapts flexibly to the weather, season and location.

Optimum animal welfare

Challenges in the outdoor climate barn

Why an optimal barn climate is crucial for animal welfare

 

An optimal barn climate is a decisive factor for animal health and performance in agriculture. Rising outside temperatures, high humidity, harmful gases and changing weather conditions pose major challenges for outdoor climate stables in particular. An inadequately regulated barn climate can lead to heat stress, respiratory diseases and reduced performance. Modern climate control technology helps farmers to identify these risks at an early stage and take targeted countermeasures.

Lubratec Smart

Holistic networking of ventilation and lighting products

 

Lubratec Smart is an integrated barn climate control system that intelligently networks all relevant components of barn climate control technology. The system combines precise sensor technology, simple control and fully automatic control logic to create an efficient solution for outdoor climate stables. Farmers have transparency about the climate in the barn at all times and can optimally coordinate ventilation, fans and lighting.

How the system works

Intelligent barn climate control

 

The smart barn climate system from HUESKER works according to a clear principle: measure, visualize, control and automatically regulate. Sensors continuously record important climate data such as temperature, humidity, CO₂ concentration and light conditions. These measured values are clearly displayed in the SmartApp and form the basis for intelligent, automated control of all connected barn climate products.

The unique phase model

Optimally controlled barn through climate phases

A key unique selling point of Lubratec Smart is the intelligent phase model for outdoor climate barns. It distinguishes between the cold phase, comfort phase and warm phase and automatically adjusts the climate control system to the respective weather and temperature situation. This ensures an animal-friendly climate in the barn in every season and reliably reduces heat stress.

In all three climate phases, Lubratec Smart ensures the perfect interplay of ventilation, fans and optional humidification. The basis for this is the continuous recording of relevant environmental influences such as temperature, wind direction and strength, precipitation, humidity, harmful gases (especially CO₂) and lighting conditions. Local weather data and its progression are also recorded via a dedicated weather station so that all connected Lubratec stable climate products can be controlled proactively and particularly efficiently, and the lighting control is also fully integrated into the system. The LED light level is controlled via freely definable time programs (e.g. 16 hours bright / 8 hours dark, vice versa for dry cows), including night mode. When there is sufficient light outside, the light switches off automatically and saves energy. Switching on and off is always dimmed and animal-friendly to avoid stress.

The three climate phases at a glance

Cold phase

During the cold phase, the ventilation is regulated depending on the outside temperature, wind, rain and harmful gas levels in the barn. Shock ventilation enables air to be exchanged as required with minimal heat loss.

Comfort phase

In the comfort phase, the control of the ventilation is primarily temperature-dependent. The system is always ready to react quickly to changes in the weather. Fans also ensure a minimum air exchange rate, especially when there is no wind.

Warm phase

In the warm phase, the focus is on reducing heat stress. Wind ventilation and fans are used in a targeted manner to lower the barn temperature. In intense heat, the wind-chill effect is utilized through the combined use of fans and misting to noticeably relieve the animals.

Three climate phases - one system

The control logic of Lubratec Smart is based on many years of practical experience from outdoor climate stables and was developed in close cooperation with vets and farmers. Dynamic control algorithms are linked with intelligent if-then functions and ensure precise coordination between sensors and climate control products - for greater animal welfare, higher efficiency and maximum operational reliability.

Advantages at a glance

Smart barn climate digitally controlled and innovatively regulated

 

With Lubratec Smart, farms benefit from a sustainable improvement in the barn climate. The intelligent barn climate system increases animal health, reduces heat stress and improves the air quality in the barn. At the same time, energy consumption and manual workload are reduced, as ventilation and lighting are automatically controlled as required.

Modular and future-proof

Start today, expand tomorrow

 

Lubratec Smart has a modular design and offers farmers maximum flexibility when getting started. You decide how you want to get started: You can gain valuable insights into temperature, air quality and other climate-relevant factors simply by measuring the barn climate via SmartBox and SmartApp. Alternatively, you can start directly with the control of your Lubratec barn climate products and the system can be expanded step by step at any time, from the control of individual components to the fully automated control of the entire barn climate with SmartPad and the unique phase model. Lubratec Smart thus grows with the requirements of your farm, remains future-proof and makes it possible to continuously make the barn climate more intelligent and sustainably increase animal welfare.

One system, many entry options
The smart way to an optimal barn climate

Lubratec SmartBox

Transparency for maximum animal welfare

With the Lubratec SmartBox and the Lubratec SmartApp, you can record all climate-relevant data directly in the outdoor climate barn - reliably and in real time. High-precision sensors measure temperature, humidity, CO₂ concentration and light intensity, among other things. The measured values are automatically recorded and clearly visualized in the app. The integrated traffic light system enables a quick and intuitive assessment of the current barn climate situation and helps you to optimize animal welfare in a targeted and sustainable manner.

Lubratec SmartController

Convenient operation for more control

With the SmartController, you can control your ventilation and coating products easily and directly. All operating statuses are clearly visible at all times. External buttons and timers can be easily integrated. Thanks to the "Smart Ready" technology, subsequent expansion with the SmartPad is possible at any time.

Lubratec SmartPad

Automation with unique logic

The heart of the system is the Lubratec SmartPad with the exclusive phase model. It regulates ventilation and lighting fully automatically - adapted to the weather, season and location. The intelligent control logic is based on many years of practical experience and ensures an optimum barn climate with maximum animal welfare.
