Diesel Grain Dryers
|
10 Good Reasons
|
Why choose OPICO?
|
|
Put you in control of your harvest whatever the weather.
Why get caught out by another wet harvest when OPICO's Grain Dryers have the solution.
Easy to install and relocate when necessary, OPICO Diesel Grain Dryers do not require vast expenditure on handling equipment and our Diesel Grain Dryers can dry up to 480 tons per day automatically, with minimal supervision. Using diesel or gas and with 3 phase or PTO drive OPICO dryers recirulate the grain constantly to dry thoroughly and evenly whilst imporving hectolitre weights and augmenting quality.

10 Good Reasons

Why choose OPICO?
|
|
10 Good Reasons why to use recirculating batch dryer?
Recirculating - Constant mixing for even drying.
|
Augers - Polishes the grain, improving sample.
|
Grain Cleaner - Removes weed seeds and broken grains improving hectolitre weight.
|
Grain is Constantly Moving - Airflow through crop is better decreasing drying time.
|
Wet or Dry - Can handle and dry the very wettest of grain.
|
Forced Drying and Cooling - YOU'RE in control, grain is ready to sell when YOU want.
|
Self Contained - Minimal additional handling equipment required.
|
Quiet - To reduce noise in sensitive areas.
|
Resale Value - Being mobile OPICO Dryers retain a high resale value
|
Flexibility - Can be adapted to fit into most drying systems

Diesel Grain Dryers
|
10 Good Reasons
|
Why choose OPICO?
|
|
Why choose OPICO?
Minimise non drying time.
Loading time and unloading time is dead time when using a dryer, OPICO dryers have high capacity loading augers, recirculating augers and unloading augers, reducing non drying time and increasing throughput.
|
Air flow through the grain.
The more air you can blow through grain the more quickly grain will dry and cool, OPICO dryers have high capacity fans in relation to the size of the dryer which speeds up drying and cooling decreasing batch time and increasing throughput.
|
Heating the grain.
Larger burners attain the drying temperature more quickly and maintain more consistant drying temperature, decreasing drying time and increasing throughput.
|
Size of the drying zone.
The size of the plenum chamber in a grain dryer dictates the amount of grain that is being dryed at any one time. The holding capacity of a grain dryer is irrelevant to the drying capacity, the larger the plenum area, the higher drying capacity. (See image)

Diesel Grain Dryer Features

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.
