Proper aeration is an important part of every grain storage system and is essential to maintaining grain quality. Properly operated aeration systems can save you money, control insect infestation and moisture migration, and reduce grain spoilage. SCAFCO's aeration systems can be installed in new or existing storage facilities. We use rigid corrugated, perforated aeration duct made from heavy-gauge galvanized steel combined with high- efficiency axial aeration fans.
DOUBLE H-PATTERN All Double H-pattern commercial flush floor aeration systems consist of plain and perforated corrugated decking, 4" (100 mm) wide hat-beams, 12" (305 mm) high support legs, ledger angels, perforated strips, corrugated filler strips and fasteners. The plain and perforated corrugated decking is either 18 gauge (1.17 mm) or 14 gauge (1.83 mm) thick galvanized steel.
FLUSH FLOOR AERATION
SCAFCO flush floor systems are easy to install. No pre-forming is required. Simply set our formed steel concrete forms in place and pour the floor! Our systems include 14 percent open perforated planks with round perforation holes to minimize clogging.
HOPPER BOTTOM BIN AND SILO AERATION
SCAFCO uses rigid, perforated, and corrugated galvanized steel pipe for aeration in hopper bottom bins and silos. Fans mount below the hopper, directing air into internal ducts and up through the grain mass.
PERFORATED PLANK FLOOR
SCAFCO perforated plank floors ensure fast structure erection, uniform grain drying, and easy cleaning. Our interlocking planks are precision roll-formed with 14 percent perforation and a slight crown for added strength. Planks are supported by heavy-duty legs. Floor design features a complete assembly kit to ensure easy installation.
