Circ-Air
Grain Aeration Systems from Westeel
Up until now grain bin aeration has meant either the expense of
full floor, or the somewhat less effective grain aeration of square
pit. But now there's alternative grain drying equipment, developed
for farmers dissatisfied by the performance of square pit grain
bin aeration. Westeel's revolutionary Circ-Air Round Pit system
delivers aeration performance approaching that of full floor, but
at a cost about the same as square pit - truly a breakthrough in
grain bin aeration technology. Circ-Air can be used on farm bins
and commercial bins with a capacity up to 56,731 bushels (1550 metric
tonnes of wheat).
Arched, Perforated Aeration Planks
Circ-Air features Westeel's new C-Support system to provide unsurpassed
airflow distribution. Not only that, you'll also benefit from Westeel's
improved planking system that uses a new arch design that stiffens
the floor when under load, making it even stronger. Planks available
with perforations of either .050" for use with canola and small
grains, or .094" for large grains.
This is the closest you can get to full floor aeration, but unlike
full floor, you don't lose one bit of your bins storage space.
Gain up to 130% greater aeration coverage with
Westeel's revolutionary Circ-Air Round Pit grain drying system.
Depending upon your bin's diameter and aeration model selected,
Westeel's new Circ-Air grain bin aeration system allows you to aerate
up to 76% of your bin's floor, a remarkable 130% increase over the
33% maximum coverage allowed by square pit. With greater coverage
you achieve more efficient grain aeration and faster drying.
Circ-Air is More Durable than Square Pit
Unlike square pit aeration systems that can experience cracking
and deterioration to the concrete floor, at the corners; Circ-Air
equally distributes load stress, for a longer lasting, more durable
base. With square pit systems, the load is not evenly distributed
and the corners undergo extreme stress. Sealform's circular foundation
distributes the stress equally along the whole pit wall. With a
Sealform concrete foundation form and Circ-Air, complete installation
can be accomplished with only one pour of concrete, saving you both
time and money.
Maximizes Grain Storage Capacity
Circ-Air is the closest you can get to full floor aeration but,
unlike full floor, you don't lose one bit of your bin's storage
space. Circ-Air is built into the foundation, unlike full floor
aeration, which is built on top of the bin floor.
Easier Grain Bin Clean-out
The Circ-Air round pit system features flush mounted flashing and
a level floor that does not restrict use of bin sweeps, for easier
bin clean-out.
