MariSource Vertical Incubators

Q: How many eggs does one incubator hold?

An 8-tray cabinet holds 96,000 salmon eggs, which works out at 12,000 eggs per tray.

Q: How do I work out how many trays I need?

Divide your egg take by 12,000 eggs per tray, then round up to the next whole tray and the next whole cabinet.

Q: How much water does a stack need?

A flow figure is not published for these cabinets because demand varies with species, egg loading and water temperature, so ask Fresh By Design to confirm the flow for your hatchery before you size the supply.

Q: Can the cabinets be stacked?

Yes, two 8-tray cabinets stack to 16 trays on the same floor area, and a second water source can be introduced to the lower cabinet so oxygen stays up.

Q: Can eggs be worked without pulling the tray out of the cabinet?

Yes, each water tray slides forward on level tracks so eggs can be worked and returned in place, and individual egg trays lift out for monitoring without disturbing the rest of the stack.

Q: What screen mesh is fitted?

Units ship with the screen your hatchery specifies for the species, sized so eggshells pass through while alevin and fry are retained.

Q: Are spare parts available?

Yes, spare parts for MariSource vertical incubators are available through Fresh By Design.
