The device has a stunning station 1 for stunning the fish using an electric current, and a stun maintenance station 6 which uses an electric current to maintain the fish in an unconscious state in air after stunning and until they remain unconscious when they leave the stun maintenance station. Both stations can be controlled from a microprocessor unit 4. The unit 4 controls the electrical field strength and frequency supplied to electrode 3. It can also control the speed of belt 7 which controls the length of time fish spend in station 6. Between the two stations unconscious fish pass over an inclined de-watering station 5. |
