Product catalog summary
Overview
Conair's spiral aluminum silos are designed for contamination-free storage of pelletized or powdered plastic materials. These silos are constructed from high-quality, non-ferrous aluminum, ensuring durability and eliminating the need for external painting or internal epoxy coating.

Specifications
The silos are available in two diameters: 11 feet 6 inches and 14 feet 8 inches, with storage capacities ranging from 1,818 to 8,917 cubic feet. The construction material used is 5052-H-32 aluminum, providing a structurally tough and weather-tight solution.

Cone Configurations
Three cone configurations are available based on material type: a 45º cone for pellets, a 60º cone for powdered materials, and a 45º/70º compound cone for PET materials.

Customization Options
Options include a safety cage and rest platform for silos over 30 feet, a ladder, and a slide gate shut-off pre-drilled for an optional Conair distribution box.

Standard Features
Standard features include a prefabricated roof with access hatch, roof vent, perimeter guard rail with safety toe board and railing, vacuum receiver mounting flange, truck-fill nipple, high and low-level indicator mounts, and a fully enclosed weather-proof vented silo skirt with a louvered access door. A crossover walkway is provided if two or more silos are purchased.

Installation and Maintenance
Conair installation crews can set or build the silo on a customer-poured pad, connect all accessories, and install the unloading and conveying system. The silos require no routine maintenance inside or out.

Performance Characteristics
The silos are designed to withstand wind loads of 100 mph and snow loads of 40 lb/ft². The weight of the silos varies based on size and configuration, with shipping weights ranging from 4,066 lbs to 11,116 lbs.

Additional Features
Optional features include a vacuum hopper and line, railcar unloading line, dust collector, and vacuum pump.

Spiral Aluminum Silos-1

TPSX001-0811 MATERIAL STORAGE SPIRAL ALUMINUM SILOS WEATHER-TIGHT BULK STORAGE WITH NO MAINTENANCE Structurally tough. Contamination-free. Conair’s aluminum silos are designed to match the rigidity of a steel structure. Unlike a steel structure this silo requires no external painting or internal epoxy coating. In fact, no routine maintenance is needed inside or out. Aluminum silos keep your expensive material in pristine condition, free from contamination due to rust or flaking. The silo is guaranteed to be water-tight. ALL-ALUM INUM A ND R O L L F O R M E D The Conair spiral silo is manufactured, literally, from the top down. A coil of 0.120 gauge sheet aluminum is fed into a circular roll forming machine. The forming machine rotates and joins the edges into an airtight fit which is double crimped under extreme pressure, to form what amounts to a one piece structure. The spiral silo is available in either an 11 foot 6 inch diameter, pre-formed at the factory and shipped ready to erect in one day, or in 14 foot 8 inch formed right at your plant. Storage capacities range from 1,818 to 8,917 cubic feet. Conair installation crews can set or build the silo on the customer poured pad, connect all accessories and install the unloading and conveying system to get you up and running. n Superior quality construction High quality, non-ferrous aluminum silos are a practical solution for contamination-free storing of expensive pelletized or powdered plastic materials. n Three cone configurations Cone configuration is determined by material type. Silos formed for pellet storage usually have a 45º cone bottom. For powder and hard-to-flow materials the silo includes a 60º cone. A 45º/70º compound cone is used for PET materials. n Customized to fit your needs Options include a safety cage and rest platform for silos over 30 feet, a ladder and a slide gate shut-off which is pre-drilled to accept an optional Conair distribution box. n Many standard features Included as standard are: a prefabricated roof with access hatch, roof vent, perimeter guard rail with safety toe board and railing. Also, a vacuum receiver mounting flange, truck-fill nipple, high and low level indicator mounts, mounting flange for the slide gate shut-off and a fully enclosed weather-proof vented silo skirt with a louvered access door is included. If two or more silos are purchased at once, a four foot (span) crossover walkway is provided.
