Silo Safety System

Description

The KCS Silo Safety System for the safeguarding of silos consists of a central electronic monitoring and control unit which manages a series of silos. System consists of several components including power panel for each silo, a silo pipe connection, a pinch valve, a tanker coupling with the filling pipe, a maximum level indicator, a differential pressure switch or electronic pressure meter, a pressure gauge for the venting filter, a pressure relief valve, and an audible alarm.

Function

The KCS Silo Safety System can be used for silos which are filled by tanker with powders or granular materials. Damage to the silo or its accessories is most likely during the operation of filling from tankers. This is due to the risk of overfilling or excess pressurisation. The KCS system, supplied in component form, prevents both overfilling and excess pressurisation, thus avoiding damage to the silo, to the venting filter or other accessories, and reducing the risk of dust emission into the atmosphere.
