Wooden silo

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides comprehensive details on Kongskilde's wooden silos, which are designed for indoor drying and storage of grain. These silos are engineered to ensure safe storage by controlling moisture and temperature levels to prevent fungi and bacteria growth.
Safe Storage: The silos maintain low grain moisture and temperature to inhibit fungi and bacteria growth. Wooden panels with louvered aluminum strips ensure evenly distributed radial airflow, crucial for effective aeration.
Filling and Emptying: Equipped with a filling distributor, the silos ensure even grain distribution around the central ventilation pipe. The emptying device allows for layer-by-layer crop removal, ensuring uniform moisture content.
Drying Process: The silos support drying in both full and partially full states, using low air temperatures to prevent damage to large kernels with high moisture content. Heat consumption is approximately 1,200 kcal to remove 1 kg of water, depending on crop conditions.
Modular Design: Constructed from modular wood and aluminum sections, the silos allow for easy assembly and customization, minimizing shipping costs.
Global Installations: Kongskilde has installed large grain storage solutions worldwide, including in Indonesia, Brazil, and the UK.
KCT Batch Drier: These driers offer a gentle drying process for various crops, operating at low temperatures with a self-emptying flow base bottom. They are compatible with Kongskilde HVL blowers and various heating sources.
KCE Drying and Storage Silo: Designed for indoor storage, these silos are ideal for high-quality grains and seeds, especially in tropical climates. They feature a perforated central pipe for high air rates and do not require grain recirculation during drying.
KC Storage Silo: Used for aerated storage of grains, these silos are particularly effective in tropical conditions. They feature a central pipe for air rates and are recommended for high-value products.
Technical Specifications: The document includes detailed tables with specifications for various silo models, including dimensions, capacity, air rates, and drying times. These specifications are crucial for selecting the appropriate silo model based on specific storage and drying needs.
Types of Silos:
  • KCT: Batch drier with self-emptying flow base bottom.
  • KC: Storage silo.
  • KCE: Ventilation and storage silo.
Technical Specifications:
  • Ventilation Pipe Diameter: KCT and KCE have a diameter of Ø770 mm, while KC has Ø280 mm.
  • Size Range: KCT ranges from Ø2.0 to Ø2.7 meters with a height up to 6.6 meters. KCE ranges from Ø2.0 to Ø6.0 meters with a height up to 7.8 meters, with larger models available on request. KC ranges from Ø2.0 to Ø6.7 meters with a height up to 9.6 meters.
  • Content Capacity: KCT holds 7-35 m3 (5-26 tons), KCE holds 6-232 m3 (5-174 tons), and KC holds 8-347 m3 (6-260 tons).
  • Ventilation Blower: KCT and KCE use HVL 30 to HVL 250, while KC uses TRL 20 to TRL 75.

Wooden silo-3

KCT / KCE / KC Wooden Silos Safe Storage Safe storage is all about creating an environment in which ever present, dormant fungi and bacteria do not have enough moisture to develop toxins. Storage with maximum protection against pests demands a fairly low grain moisture and temperature. Optimum condition for such environments is secured with a Kongskilde wooden silo. Wooden panels with louvered aluminium strips ensure an evenly distributed radial airflow. Aeration can work with both full and partly full silos. Filling and Emptying Filling and emptying are both important factors for the functioning...

KC Drying CapacityHolding Capacities and Drying Times Type Above examples are based on: Air temperature 17°C. Relative humidity 80%. Blower TRL 75. Heating of drying air is not recommended for silos larger than 02.7m. In the above examples no extra heat is added. With a grain and air temperature of i7°C and 80% humidity the max. storage time is 20 days (480 hours). Therefore silos larger than 04m and 04m silos with walls higher than 6 m are suitable for venting and storage only. They are not suitable for drying.
