  2. Energy Efficiency - Solutions - Grain Storage Silos

Grain Storage Silo

Quality and economy in storage

Designed to store and keep the grain quality, the Storage Silo is one of the most important applications in the agribusiness. WEG is the pioneer in the development of a specific energy-efficient solution for this segment, ensuring a better silo and grain storage management.

Once the grains reach the plant and are stored in the silo, their quality starts declining proportionally to the storage time and conditions. In order to keep the initial quality of the grain, it is necessary to aerate the product. In such applications, the ventilation often exceeds the real needs or becomes harmful by introducing undesirable moisture.

Based on that, to supply just the necessary ventilation to keep the grain quality, WEG created a high-efficiency solution consisting of:

  • Electric motor W22 IE3 Premium or W22 IE4 Super Premium, and CFW11 or CFW700 variable speed drive
  • Electric motor W22 Magnet IE4 Super Premium or W22 Magnet IE5 Ultra Premium, and CFW11 variable speed drive

This solution allows the system to adjust to any kind of grain, providing the correct aeration rate for each product, maintaining the temperature homogeneous across the mass and producing great energy economy.

Beneficios

  • Ahorro de energía de hasta 90%
  • Control de la humedad en la masa de los granos, evitando el secado más allá del necesario y sus consecuentes pérdidas.
  • La variación de temperatura provoca menos quiebres de granos, produciendo granos de mejor calidad
  • Control preciso del volumen almacenado

La termometría es determinante en este proceso, para que sea posible reducir fuertemente la velocidad de los ventiladores sin interferir en la calidad de los granos. De la misma forma que en cualquier punto de la masa de granos en que sea necesaria una tasa mayor de aireación, automáticamente, el sistema se ajusta para satisfacer esa necesidad.
