EQUIPMENT FOR PELLET SYSTEMS

Pellet supply from an external waterproof silo

Filling a smaller tank from the outside can be done from an external

silo with a screw transporter. The silo is made of very strong fiberglass

which is used in the construction of boats and yachts.

This pellet transport is intended for higher power systems due to its

robustness and reliability. Silo capacities from 2.4 tons to 45 tons of

pellets, height from 3.7 m to 13 m, diameter from 1.6 to 3 m.

Pellet supply from the room storage using a flexible coil

Pellets from the pellet storage room can be brought to the boiler (pellet

burner) with a flexible coil, up to 30 m distance and a height difference

of 6 m. It is used only for the transport of wood pellets with a diameter

of ø 6mm. The flexible steel coil is housed in a PVC pipe and driven by an

electric motor.

The advantage of this supply system is that the transport of pellets can

be carried out over relatively long distances directly to the burner,

without the need for a smaller pellet tank, without requiring too much

space, as rigid screw transporter need.
