ABSTRACT:
Poultry suspended heads down from an overhead conveyor are wetted with an electrolyte while adjacent to an electrolyte holding tank. At the downstream end of the electrolyte tank, a stunning trough is adjustably pivotally mounted on the tank and is comprised of a multiplicity of longitudinal electrode rods in a transversely arcuate array with the opposite ends of the rods electrically connected to arcuate buss bars secured to non-conducting trough end plates. The spaced electrode rods are in two groups which are charged alternately with opposite polarities. The stunning trough is enclosed in a non-conducting fiberglas shell to provide safety and non-conducting end caps for the stunning trough enclose and protect the buss bars and the ends of the electrode rods connected therewith.
