Silo Systems

Silo Systems - Reduce Operator Handling and cost of Dry Materials

Our bulk solids systems division has been engineering and supplying silo systems for over thirty years. Our unique two-piece design allows us to completely build and perform full factory functional testing of the equipment room and chemical processing systems, delivering a product that drastically reduces installation and commissioning time.

VeloDyne Silo Systems are used in municipal and industrial water and wastewater treatment. The systems store, feed, dissolve, and deliver chemical to the desired process point. Typical applications include:

Neutralization and PH control
Heavy metal removal
Taste/order control

Simply a Better Silo Design

VeloDyne’s two-piece silo systems minimizes installation time,
reduces commissioning time and provides a more open layout.
How?

The two-piece design allows VeloDyne to fully install, test and
ship the lower section, housing the feed equipment, plumbing
and controls. According to customer feed-back, this reduces
field installation costs and time by 30% to 40%, and overall
commissioning time by as much as 50%.
The equipment room design routes plumbing and conduit under the removable floor grating or over-head for increased open space around equipment, and the back wall of mix tanks are designed with a radius to fit up against the radius of the silo wall, reducing equipment foot print.
The lower equipment room section is shipped up-right, rather
than on it’s side, virtually eliminating the possibility of damage
during shipment.
The upper storage section is shipped to the job site for mounting
to the lower section. Each section has a junction box located at
the bolting flange to allow the contractor to easily and quickly
interconnect the two pieces.
