Silo Accessory Kits

Blower pipes allow your silo to be filled by a blower truck. A steel pipe runs from the top of your silo down the wall to a connector at the bottom. Blower pipes can be installed anywhere on your silo and bends are made from heavy-duty, 4.5mm thick 100nb pipe for a longer life. Kit includes: blower pipe bend, blower downpipe, camlock, and mounting brackets.

We can supply additional blower pipe bends to your specifications. Most often used when your blower pipe needs to work around an exclusion zone or you want to bring a series of blower pipes to a central filling point. All bends are made from 4.5mm thick 100nb pipe for a longer life. Made to order, all angles available.

The blower downpipe is a component of the complete blower pipe system. A 2mm thick pipe that can be welded together and connected to the blower pipe bend on one end and further piping or a camlock connector on the other. Available in a range of lengths depending on your needs.

The camlock allows feed delivery companies to connect their hoses to the blower pipe when filling your silo. Included as standard on our pellet & feed silos, the camlock is attached to the bottom end of the blower pipe. Camlock covers are also available.

This dust cover can be used to protect the camlock from weather and damage. Includes retention loops so you don't loose the dust cover when not in use.

Allow air and dust to escape when using a pneumatic filling system, while preventing dust from landing on nearby sheds and silo roofs, or in spouts and air conditioner systems. Extended vents let air and dust out of the silo at ground level and are positioned to suit your requirements.

Bag chutes can be used for sampling and emptying the silo into auger boots, wheelbarrows, and bins. The 125mm square chute has a handle and butterfly flap. Bag chutes are included as standard on pellet & feed silos, and typically positioned to the side of the main outlet, though they can be placed at any height and position you want. Gas tight version available.

We can extend the bag chute up to 3 metres, bringing the chute opening further out from the silo and allowing you to fill larger bins, carts, front-end loaders, etc. Gas-tight version available.

Sight glasses allow you to quickly see how much product is in your silo. We include 100mm diameter clear Perspex sight glasses as standard, spaced at one sight glass per 1200mm wall sheet. Sight glasses can also be fitted anywhere on the silo – including in the base – depending on your needs.

Open and close the top lid of your silo without climbing to the top! Adding a lid opener could save you a ton of time and hassle. The kit includes a standard 760mm lid and large lever handle with cable that extends to the base of the silo. A winch at ground level opens the lid against strong holding-down springs, and upon release of the cable the lid springs closed again. Available in standard or gas-tight versions. Kit includes: lid, lid opener, brackets, cable and winch.

A waterproof adaptor fixes to your pellet outlet, allowing easy fitting of Choretime, Roxell and Big Dutchman feed systems. Includes a shut-off slide for future maintenance. Custom-made to suit your system.

Use a pellet auger box when you want to permanently fit a small screw auger that will pull feed out of the silo. A 320mm x 290mm x 300mm square box is fitted to the bottom of the cone, with a slide on the bottom for emptying and service.

This hopper allows you to use a transportable auger to empty the silo. The hopper fit onto a standard silo pellet outlet and comes with a slide on the bottom for emptying the hopper.

Safely apply phosphine treatments and remove residue at ground level with a phosphine applicator installed into the bottom cone of a gas-tight silo.

An inspection lid is often used to monitor the product inside the silo. Smaller than a standard silo lid at 500mm, this round opening is usually placed in the roof of the silo next to a ladder for easy access. Kit includes: lid.

Need a new lid? We can supply standard 760mm round galvanised steel lids with a spring on the back for easy maneuvering. These lids are designed to be tek-screwed closed. Kit includes: lid, spring.

A base manhole allows appropriately trained and equipped personnel to inspect, clean and maintain the silo. Our ledge-free design stops product from building up on top of the manhole and the pointed design greatly reduces how much feed falls out when opening the manhole. Kit includes all manhole components for installation into the cone/base of your existing silo.

GrainGuard is an industry-leading pressure relief valve designed to allow the silo to breathe during temperature changes. As well as allowing the silo to breathe, GrainGuard prevents insects from getting into the silo from outside. Can also be used to visually check the silo's sealing condition to meet Australian Standards AS2628.

Reduce the risk of damage to silo and frame with steel bollards bolted to the concrete in front of the silo legs. We can install bollards at time of silo delivery or supply bollards separately as needed.

We can supply additional springs to help keep the manhole or top lid shut in particularly challenging conditions. Not much else to say really; they're springs, you might find them useful!

We can fit an industrial ventilator to the lid of your silo to allow continual ventilation. We recommend installing industrial ventilators when there is a history of moisture problems in the silo caused by moist or hot feed. Not compatible with gas-tight sealing.

Base blocks prevent water, dust and grain from accumulating under the silo rings and make cleaning around the base of your silo much easier. This has the effect of significantly increasing the lifespan of your silo rings. We install all new silos with 15mm base blocks and given the no-weld design, they can be easily retrofitted to your existing silos.

This large hopper with wheels can be used to empty your silo using augers of all sizes. The wheeled design allows for easy manoeuvrability with no lifting and pairs with our grain outlet. Ask about our grain outlet brochure for further details.

A metric level sensor gives you instant access to feed levels at any time of day and can prevent feed runout or over-ordering. Laser technology continuously measures the level of solid material in the silo and sends notifications to any phone or computer when a pre-set material level is reached.
