Notes:
Silo Sizes: Expressed in Feet. Diameter x Height
Capacity in Tonnes: Based on average wheat density of 830Kg/Cu Met.
Aeration Fans: Common sizes fitted as shown. Aim is for a minimum of 2 litres/tonne /second when full.
* 42 Feet silos will require 2 fans to achieve new recommended aeration flows. Many growers achieve quality out comes with only one aeartion fan opertaed correctly.
Higher aeration flow silos are now comonly built. Aeration parameters are a descision to be made when planning.
Vents: Number fitted is matched to aeration fan delivery.
Type fitted: Ground operated, high flow & sealable for fumigation.
Unloaders:
250 mm diameter commonly fitted to 42 & 48 Ft
300 Mm fitted where high delivery flows are required
Fill Auger Estimate: A length that will allow a low fill angle for high flow and reduced break down. Expressed in Feet [Meters]
