MERIDIAN BUILT PREMIUM STORAGE SOLUTIONS


AERATION SYSTEMThe main objective to using an aeration system is to improve the storage condi-tions of your commodity. This is achieved by moving air of desired or selectedproperties through the grain to keep it from deterioration. Aeration may have dif-ferent effects on stored grain, depending on the properties of the air and on theexisting condition of the grain thus improving the storage conditions of your grainin different ways. The objectives to aerate may be defined according to itseffects on grain:

· Reduce the temperature of the grain · Equalizing temperature throughout the grain storage containment· Prevent heating in damp grain · Limited drying to maintain grain quality

Air flow & volume are both very important in maximizing the effectiveness ofgrain drying. Conventional floor aeration systems only dry from the bottom up.Although effective in drying the bottom half, they often fall short of drying grainin the center and top half of the bin. Achieving and maintaining uniform air flowthroughout a bin of grain is an important factor in drying grain effectively and effi-ciently. An aeration system can overcome common problems by:

· Forcing air into the center of the bin · Providing a drying front that conforms to the grain · Reducing static pressure · Increasing fan efficiency up to 20% · Reducing drying time by up to 50% · Reducing operation costs

Factory installed aeration systems are available for your hopper bottom binfrom Meridian Mfg Group. Both horizontal tube types and Rocket models areavailable in various sizes to correctly match your bin capacity. The horizontaltube type is also available as an after market option.

FEED BINSMeridian’s smooth-wall Feed Bins are designedwith feed safety and feed management in mind.

The advantage of Meridian's smooth-wall designover other types of bins is very evident in feedstorage. There are no bolts or ribs; the cone andside-wall surfaces are very smooth; the bottomcone is 55 or 60 degrees. These features com-bined into one bin helps ensures feed won't hangup or get trapped inside your bin causingspoilage and unnecessary expenses.

(For capacities over 26 Tons, use the larger SteepCone version.)

STEEP CONE BINSWhen you require a steeper cone than featured on the Multi-Purpose bins, and morevolume than available in a Feed bin, the solution is a Meridian Steep Cone Series.These bins are built with 12 gauge construction, but feature a 55 degree bottom conein capacities up to 222 tons.

The flow characteristics of commodities vary a lot causing many products to bridge upinside a bin. If this describes your situation please contact Meridian's sales team forassistance. They will ensure you receive the best bin design for your storage needs.

CALCULATIONSBushel capacities are approximate. Feed bin capacities are based on 40 lbs/ft3.

All fertilizer bins, steep cone bins and liquidbins capacities are based on 62 lbs/ft3.

To select the most appropriate bin size for yourstorage needs follow these steps:

· Determine product density (lbs/ft3).· Convert the total tonnage being stored to

lbs, then divide by the density. The resultis the cubic foot capacity you require.

ExampleYou need to store 100 MT of urea fertilizerwith a density of 48 lbs.

100 x 2204 = 220,400 / 48 = 4592 (Min. ft3 required)Best model selection would be a 1620 or1815.

To calculate a bins holding capacity of aspecific product, follow these steps:· Determine product density (lbs/ft3).· Multiply the bins cubic foot capacity by

the product density, then divide by 2204.

ExampleYour fertilizer blend weighs 57 lbs/ft3 andyou're purchasing a model 1625 fertilizerbin.

Model 1625 = 5851 ft3 x 57 lbs = 333,507lbs / 2204 = 151 MT. Your new 1625 willhold about 151 MT of your specific fertil-izer blend.
