Dual storage silos for dry bulk materials provide flexibility
This company has introduced new dual dry-bulk-chemical storage silos with integral feeding and dissolving systems (photo) that can be used to reduce the overall height profile of a single high-rate application or to feed two different chemicals to one or more application points. The dual silos are typically mounted close enough to each other to allow for a single ladder with a safety cage to access one silo roof, and a catwalk spanning the two silos to allow for access to the second roof. Fill lines are routed to a single loading point, with a single truck-fill panel operating both systems. A security keypad, wired to automatic valves on the fill line, ensures that dry chemicals are being delivered to the correct silo. Custom control packages and ancillary equipment are also available with the system. Controls are typically located inside the skirted silo, along with necessary piping and wiring, requiring minimal installation of some external components. Booth 4541 — Acrison, Inc., Moonachie, N.J.
