X-TH-3T: The First Programmable Livestock Thermostat from the New Chapter of Agricontrol

New X-TH-3T. One device. Endless configurations

In 2025, Agricontrol became part of Termotecnica Pericoli- From this integration comes X-TH-3T: the first programmable thermostat developed specifically for the livestock sector.

A product that carries 45 years of climate control and automation expertise applied, for the first time, to the real-world demands of livestock farming.

What Is X-TH-3T and What Sets It Apart from Standard Thermostats
X-TH-3T is a digital thermostat featuring 3 intelligent, independent, and separately programmable contacts. Each contact can be configured to manage heating, cooling, ventilation, alarms, or any combination of these functions.

Unlike conventional single-stage thermostats, which handle one function with a single output, X-TH-3T allows multiple systems to be controlled in parallel from a single device. The result is a level of operational flexibility that has no real equivalent in the livestock thermostat market.

Technical Specifications and Key Features
X-TH-3T is engineered to perform reliably in the demanding conditions of livestock facilities:

climate control with three indipendent contacts

3 independent intelligent contacts, each programmable separately for heating, ventilation, cooling, or alarm
1 relay contact with switchable NO/NC configuration for maximum installation flexibility
PT1000 Class B temperature sensor, ±0.5°C precision @ 25°C (included)
Supply: 230 Vac, 50/60 Hz — Outputs: 3 × 2A @ 250 Vac
IP55 protection rating: dust and water resistant, built for harsh barn environments
Physical buttons, gloves-ready interface: operable even with work gloves
Programmable by non-specialists: no technical background required
Automatic energy optimisation through programmable temperature thresholds
CE certified, Made in Italy, 1-year warranty
Use Cases: One Device, Infinite Configurations
X-TH-3T’s core strength is its adaptability. Common configurations include:

Heating System Control
Manage heating circuits with up to two independently programmable setpoints and a low-temperature alarm.

Heating, Ventilation, and Temperature Alarm
Combined control of heating, ventilation, and high/low temperature alarms all from a single device.

Exhaust Fan Control with Evaporative Cooling
Manage exhaust fans with up to two independent temperature thresholds, with separate activation of the evaporative cooling pump.

And many more adaptable to any barn layout, animal species, or existing climate control setup.

X-TH-3T vs. Single-Stage Thermostats: A Direct Comparison
Standard single-stage thermostats offer one output with a fixed function. X-TH-3T exceeds this on every dimension: 3 independent outputs vs. 1, switchable NO/NC relay, PT1000 precision sensor vs. NTC standard, IP55 vs. IP54, and infinite configurability vs. single-function operation. One device replaces what would otherwise require multiple separate units.

The Background: Agricontrol Enters the Livestock Sector
Agricontrol has built its reputation over 45 years of designing and manufacturing climate control systems, fertigation units, and automation technologies for enclosed growing environments — greenhouses, nurseries, horticulture. The technology is proven. The challenge was applying it to a new context.

The acquisition by Termotecnica Pericoli, with its deep operational knowledge of livestock facilities, made that transition possible. X-TH-3T is not an adaptation of an existing product: it was conceived from the ground up for livestock farming, with the engineering philosophy that has defined Agricontrol since day one.

See X-TH-3T in Preview at VIV Europe 2026
X-TH-3T will make its world debut at VIV Europe, the leading international trade fair for the animal protein production chain.

Stand 07C030. 2–4 June 2026. Utrecht, The Netherlands

The Agricontrol by Termotecnica Pericoli team will be on-site throughout the fair to present X-TH-3T’s full range of configurations and discuss specific application requirements with visitors.
