JFC's DBL9 drink bowl is manufactured from tough, impact-resistant polyethylene and has a smooth finish and a curved design specifically for animal safety. The drink bowl  is designed with a twin plastic wall adding to the strength and durability.  The drink bowl is fitted with a galvanised steel protection frame to add to the strength and durability. Fitted directly to the steel frame is a brass float valve capable of delivering 9L/min at 3 bar pressure, meaning the ball-valve does not move eliminating the chances of damage to the drink bowl or ball-valve.

The drink bowl has a unique design meaning the farmer empties the bowl at the push of a button. The gravity-operated rotation simply uses the weight of the water to tip 180 degrees dumping all contents and then returning to a working position. Compliance with UK water by-laws regulations require the drink bowl to be connected with a supply from a breaker or header tank.​​
