Silo Application

A cement silo is a structure for storing bulk materials. The tank is equipped with a material level system to show the position of the material.

There are 3 silo applications in a cement manufacturing plant:

1. Raw Mill Feeding Silo 2. Raw Material Feeding Silo 3. Clinker Silo

Application: Transporting to storage silos

In the process of transporting cement to storage silos, the operator must press the uninterrupted button of dust vibration motor, shake off the dust bag of cement to prevent blocked bags and ensure smooth supply of cement.

Solution:

Dust Filter Valves provides constant low pressure air flow into Silo to prevent the Silo jam by the cement.

Activity: Discharge

To discharge, the operator needs to activate discharge valve at the bottom of the cone for the opening and closing of flap. And deactivate when the cement delivery fails to prevent cement spills resulting in waste.

Solution:

In long-stroke thrust and fixed position applications, it is necessary to use a larger diameter piston rod to prevent buckling or a cylinder with locking unit to minimised cylinder side loading in its extended position.
