Silo Systems for Dry Chemical Storage and Feeding

Acrison’s fully integrated silo storage and feeding systems are a product of over 50 years of in-depth expertise and experience in dry solids handling and feeding. Using advanced technology, and superior components, each silo is specifically configured to meet each customer’s individual application requirements.

Features/Benefits

  • Skirted silos ship as a single unit, with all internal components fully installed, piped, and wired, and properly braced for damage-free shipping. This is advantageous in that it greatly reduces the onsite work required by the contractor compared to a silo shipped in more than one section.
  • Rugged, heavy-duty, and reliable Acrison feeders are perfect for use under bulk storage silos.
  • Chemical agitation is provided by vibratory bin activators on an as-needed basis, eliminating the potential for pressurization and/or fluidization typically cause by air injection methods.
  • Custom PLC-based controls, designed and manufactured in-house.
  • 50+ years of dry chemical feeding experience with dependable service and support.
