Pneumatic Grain Handling

Product catalog summary
Introduction to Pneumatic Conveying Solutions
Pneumatic conveying systems are crucial for efficient grain transport, utilizing air flow to move grain through pipes with flexibility in direction and distance.

Suction Blower Systems
These systems are ideal for flexible grain conveying, operating by sucking grain into the system and separating it from air in a cyclone. Benefits include independence from electric power, adaptability to various terrains, and easy capacity upgrades.

Pressure Blower Systems
Pressure blowers create powerful air flow to move grain through pipes, offering space efficiency and flexible installation. They allow easy capacity regulation and require minimal maintenance.

Technical Specifications and Models
The document details specifications for various blower models, including motor power, air volume, and pressure capabilities, ranging from small, directly driven blowers to larger, belt-driven systems.

Rotary Valves and Injectors
These components are essential for feeding grain into the pipeline, with rotary valves preferred for larger capacities due to their efficiency and ability to minimize air loss.

Conveying Capacities
Capacity is influenced by pipe layout, grain moisture, and air conditions. A table is included showing capacities for different blower and injector combinations.

Tractor-Powered Systems
These systems offer high-capacity conveying without electrical power, suitable for various agricultural settings.

Fan Guard Systems
To protect blowers from dust and abrasive particles, the Fan Guard System uses a dust cyclone to remove fine materials before they reach the blower.

Conclusion
Kongskilde's pneumatic conveying systems provide flexible, efficient solutions for grain transport, catering to different capacity needs and operational environments.

Specifications and Recommendations
- Use the correct pipe diameter: OK 200 for SupraVac, OK 160 for other models.
- Keep the suction side short and limit suction hoses.
- Capacities are based on 15% moisture content.

Suction Blower Capacities
Tables show conveying capacities (in t/hour) for different models and distances, varying based on model and suction pipeline length.

Example Configurations
Examples illustrate different pipeline setups, including universal suction heads, hoses, and outlet cyclones.

Kongskilde OK Pipe Systems

Outlet cyclone Suction side Suction cyclone Suction head Pressure side Blower Receiving hopper How A Suction Blower Works The suction blower is a unique solution when flexible conveying is needed and is used everywhere for conveying grain. The suction system is suitable for picking up grain from various locations and blowing it to any desired location. Grain is sucked into the system on the intake side of the blower. The blower’s intake is connected to the top of a suction cyclone. In this cyclone, grain and air get separated. The grain drops down into the rotary valve fitted to the outlet of...

Our Kongskilde TRL blowers offer highly customized solutions to moving grain from A to B and beyond. Some of our belt-driven TRL blowers can be upgraded with a larger motor, making it easy to increase capacity later by simply changing the motor and drive package. Pressure conveying systems are used to move grain from one place to another. These systems require grain to be fed directly into a hopper above the injector or rotary valve. When the conveying pipe is connected to the blower’s pressure side a powerful air flow is directed through the conveying pipe. An injector or rotary valve leads...

Pneumatic Grain Handling-4

Directly Driven TRL The TRL blower creates an air flow in the pipes that conveys the grain. The amount of grain that can be blown through the pipes depends on the blower’s power. Kongskilde provides blowers with different output to meet different needs. The small blower models are directly driven, i.e. the blower’s rotor is fitted directly to the motor shaft. • Blower housings shaped in press toolings. • Dynamically balanced rotors provide smooth running. • Control of the air provides efficient conveying and minimises pipe wear. • Minimal maintenance. * Injector required (Minimum back pressure...

Automatic air control on TRL 1000. Damper closes automatically during startup. Construction of high pressure blower with 3 rotors. Higher capacities require higher pressure output from the blower. The most effective way to achieve this is by increasing the rpm. For this reason, the large blowers use a belt drive between the motor shaft and the blower shaft. In order to achieve more pressure for larger capacities, the large blowers have multiple rotors. • Effective modular system to build blowers with different outputs. • Proven design. • Air control ensures constant air flow for grain transport....

CAD 20 rotary valve with inlet hopper and damper. CAE 20 rotary valve mounted below the Rotor for CA 20 rotary valve fitted cyclone in a pure suction installation. with rubber paddles. A rotary valve or an injector delivers the grain into the pipeline in pressure conveying systems. Injectors are an ideal, simple solution for small capacities. Benefits • The CAD rotary valve is equipped with polyurethane paddles, and a gear motor to run the unit. A rotary intake unit is used for larger capacities. The rotary valve is driven by a small motor. Using a rotary valve instead of an injector increases...
