Galvanized feed hopper Polnet (210-4 MP)

Description

The Polnet 15.2 m³ combined silo model, which features two loading methods: mechanical (through the top hatch) and pneumatic (via a pipe system connected to a feed truck). This configuration is the most versatile, as it allows the farm owner to receive feed from large pneumatic feeders as well as load the silo using their own auger conveyors. Technical specifications: - Diameter: 2.1 m. - Capacity (volume): 15.2 m³. - Working feed capacity: 10.2 t (calculated based on an average bulk density of 0.67 t/m³). - Loading type: Hybrid (Mechanical + Pneumatic). Design features and advantages: - Body material: The silo is made of corrugated galvanized steel grade S350GD, which has a high zinc coating (350–450 g/m²). This guarantees corrosion protection for decades, even when installed outdoors. - Loading pipe: Runs along one of the silo’s support legs and enters the upper part of the roof. Equipped with a quick-release coupling for connecting a feed truck hose. - Air outlet pipe (Ventilation): Serves to release displaced air during filling, preventing the build-up of excess pressure inside the structure. - Mechanical loading: This model is designed for filling using external screw or chain-and-disc conveyors through an opening lid. - Cone angle: The optimal angle of the lower cone prevents feed from getting stuck and ensures complete unloading by gravity. - Hygiene: The smooth inner surface of the joints and the absence of sharp corners prevent feed from sticking and the growth of mold.
