Land Based Fill

Land Based Fill Systems for Silo Filling

Whilst the filling of Silos is normally associated with the direct use of self-contained blowers on bulk tanker delivery vehicles, there are alternatives that offer a quieter, safer and more economical fill.

Safety and Silo Protection

Whether based on the use of standard blowers, screw compressors, hook & claw blowers, or site-supplied compressed air, Blo-Tech’s designed solutions incorporate the latest silo protection systems, including auto shut-off and pressure differential monitoring, ensuring that current legislative requirements are met, if not surpassed.

Reducing Emissions and Noise

Whilst safety is always a key issue, the control of pollution is also driven by legislation. One area of concern is vehicle exhaust emissions; as such, tankers, whilst pumping, need to have their engines running, thereby exacerbating the problem. Again, the Blo-Tech response is to offer a complete, integrated solution that nullifies the engine-run requirement and provides benefits in safety, pollution, and noise control at competitive costs, while working closely with the customer’s H&S Engineers at all times.

Benefits of Land Based Fill

  • Quieter operation with no tanker engine running during discharge
  • Reduced vehicle exhaust emissions at the receiving site
  • Lower fuel and running costs compared with tanker-mounted blowers
  • Consistent, controlled fill rates independent of the delivery vehicle
  • Integrated silo protection meeting current legislative requirements
  • Reduced wear on delivery vehicle equipment
