OPICO Diesel Grain Dryer Range
All OPICO Magna Grain Dryers are fuelled by diesel which is of course readily available on most farms, however with a simple change to the Fuel/Air mix and the nozzles Kerosene can also be used. The on board tank provides for a considerable amount of drying if required but, as is often the case, this can be bypassed and the Dryer supplied from a larger tank if necessary. The unique Duax Heat Core builds up and retains heat to moderate the burner temperature as the burner switches from high to low flame. This clever system ensures an accurate and constant heat and makes the Magna one of the cleanest and most efficient diesel dryers on the market.
Magna Dryer Key Features
Push Button self Contained Controls - Simple to set up, operate and monitor.
Magna Dryers use robust 3 phase electrics to control the drying operation, these are powered by the three phase supply or an on board generator in the case of PTO models. The operator has simple digital temperature sensors to set and a push button system to start the drying process. The Control system incorporates a high heat cut out as a safety measure in case of a failure.
All Magna Dryers are fitted with a Duax Heat core, this uses heat retaining bricks similar to those in a storage heater to retain heat and heat the air aswell as the heat directly from the burner. Inside the burner chamber is a steel barrel which is lined with heat bricks, as the bricks build up temperature they heat the air that is being drawn past them so that when the burner switches to low flame the temperature does not drop as quickly. This ensures an even consistent drying temperature.
Large Centrifugal Fans - Quiet, fast Drying
We have over specified the fan size on all the Magna range as airflow is important in dense crops like rape and the higher the airflow in any crop the faster a batch will dryer. All fans fitted to Magna Dryers are centrifugal minimising noise output and meaning that they can be used in sensitive areas.
Efficient Low Level Burner - Clean, efficient drying and ease of servicing
Magna Dryers have been designed to keep the burner within easy reach of the operator so that it is accessible for servicing and easy to setup. The burner is a modern efficient Diesel burner that can also run on Kerosene and it incorporates a flame sensor to ensure that the diesel is cut off if the burner goes out.
Heavy Duty Agitator - Evenly dried grain
The Heavy Duty Agitator ensures that even the wettest of crops continually recalculates and mixes so that a homogenous dry sample is produced at the end of the cycle.
High capacity Augers - Faster Drying process
All Magna Dryers are specified with high capacity loading, recirculating and unloading augers in order to load, dry and unload the grain more quickly.
Stainless Steel Screens - Longevity
The Magna range uses stainless steel inner and outer screens to prevent corrosion and increase the life of the machine.
