Typical Specifications
- Typical capacity
- This specific unit is listed as 26 tonnes; silos in this class commonly range from 10 to 100+ tonnes.
- Construction material
- Units for food processing are typically constructed from stainless steel (as indicated for this unit) or food-grade aluminium for hygiene and corrosion resistance.
- Discharge mechanism
- Commonly features a conical bottom with a rotary valve, screw conveyor, or vibratory discharge for controlled material flow.
- Weighing system

- Footprint
- Vertical silos of this capacity typically require a significant height clearance and a relatively compact ground footprint, though exact dimensions vary.
- Power supply
- Associated components like sifters, conveyors, and control systems commonly require a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V.
- Maintenance requirements
- Regular cleaning, inspection of seals and filters, and calibration of weighing systems are typically required to ensure operational efficiency and hygiene.
Frequently Asked Questions
