Ritchie Industries New Omni10 Meets Customers’ Request

February 17th, 2010 by Ruth Peterson

Conrad, Iowa (February 17, 2010)— Ritchie Industries is pleased to announce the launch of the Omni 10 waterer, which joins the popular line-up of OmniFounts. Customers have long requested a new, large capacity waterer since the popular Cattle Fountain 10 was phased out in 2005.

The newest unit features an all-around drinking area. Like other members of the OmniFount family, it has a 304 stainless steel trough with heat elements attached to the underside for excellent frost-free service under the most severe winter conditions. The body of the Omni 10 is made from Ritchie’s heavy-duty polyethylene construction. The fountain is insulated with highly energy efficient polyurethane foam, providing at least an R-value of 14.

Its large trough, which holds 28 gallons of water, has an animal capacity of 275 head of cattle and 135 head of dairy. Ritchie Industries’ new Omni 10 carries a 10-year limited warranty and is available in March through distributors and dealers nationwide. (more…)
