Grain Aeration Systems
The one-step way to dry, cool and prevent insects in your grain
If your crop has ripened with some green patched in it then harvest it with up to 17% moisture content then store and aerate the grain without the concern of it being ruined.
The principal is the same as in an evaporative air conditioner, but in this case the grain is the wet filter.
Benefits of a grain aeration system.
- A crop can be harvested with some green patches in it
- A crop can be harvested at a high moisture content without the risk of spoiling.
- Start harvest earlier in the day and later at night.
- If inclement weather is on the way you can harvest up to 17% moisture getting it into your silos, knowing it will dry out later and not suffer the inevitable losses.
- When grain in silos is cooled, insects will not be a problem and chemicals are not needed to keep insects out.

HOW THE SMART FANS WORK
When the fan is connected to two silos the static pressure is reduced by four times (simple fan laws) this converts the static pressure back into velocity pressure incresing air flow and lowering air temperature.

Diagram of a typical silo grain dryer system set up
Air is introduceds under plenum fitted horizontally across the bottom of the silo.
When the silo is full, underneath the plenum is open airspace.
The air is forced down then up the cone to the walls for even distribtion through the silo.
The same plenum is suitable for all cone bottom silos.
3M (10ft) diameter to 9M (30ft).
Types of plenums available

AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY CONTROLLER
Allows you to set humidity and temperature for drying grain in the best climatic conditions. The reset the dials for aeration to blow cold, dry air through the grain.
The most inexpensive controller on the market and the only one with the humidity and temperature all in one. Take all the guesswork out of grain drying and you can get on to other jobs while the fans are monitored by the controller. The unit is fully portable and only the size of a shoe box.
