Product catalog summary
Overview
The document describes the CRATOS conveyor systems designed for transporting biomass substrates efficiently to screw conveyors. These systems are noted for their energy efficiency, saving up to 50% energy compared to traditional systems.

Specifications
  • Metering Device: Features a large-volume dispensing drum with aeration spikes to enhance substrate aeration and fermentation. It includes a built-in scale and electronic controls for precise dispensing, handling input quantities of 500 to 2000 kg/h.
  • Setup and Assembly: The system is modular, expandable, and easy to repair. It can be positioned at angles up to 20° with adjustable feet for flexibility.
  • Loading the Fermenter: Utilizes a drag chain and dispensing drum for regulated substrate input. Offers multiple connection options for fermenter insertion and can be filled from various angles.

System Controls
  • Equipped with a PLC control cabinet for monitoring and signaling malfunctions.
  • Supports various operating modes and data exchange with biogas controls.
  • Centralized control prevents movement without load and allows flexible filling.

Energy Efficiency
  • Utilizes double-strand scraper floor conveyor technology, requiring as little as 0.1 kW per meter of substrate.
  • Maximum installed electric power is 15 kW, with all energy directed towards movement.

Customer Focus
  • Offers additional equipment like feed hoppers and baffle plates upon request.
  • Standard storage volumes range from 25 to 50 m³, with other sizes available.

Experience and Reliability
  • Decades of experience in biomass systems, offering durable and proven components.
  • Components are wear-resistant and suitable for various solid materials.
  • Stainless steel casing prevents corrosion, and the system is suitable for all weather conditions.

Dimensions
  • Available in sizes with total lengths of 8, 10, and 20 meters, all with a width of 2.8 meters and height of 2.2 meters (excluding adjustable feet).
