This is achieved by moving air of desired or selected properties through the grain to keep it from deterioration. Aeration may have different effects on stored grain, depending on the properties of the air and on the existing condition of the grain thus improving the storage conditions of your grain in different ways. The objectives to aerate may be defined according to its effects on grain: GRAIN MAX BINS Meridian’s smooth-wall Grain Max Hopper Bins offer top quality grain and seed storage at prices comparable to corrugated hopper combos. Without bolts or ribs, the Grain Max seamless interior allows for safe and easy unloading, while ensuring no seeds or contaminates are trapped on the walls or joints. · · · · Air flow & volume are both very important in maximizing the effectiveness of grain drying. Conventional floor aeration systems only dry from the bottom up. Although effective in drying the bottom half, they often fall short of drying grain in the center and top half of the bin. Achieving and maintaining uniform air flow throughout a bin of grain is an important factor in drying grain effectively and efficiently. An aeration system can overcome common problems by: Grain Max hopper bins are the safest and most efficient grain bins available, allowing you to easily manage your grain handling on farm grain storage. You and your family will appreciate the safety of Grain Max, and the time and energy saved handling grain in a smooth-wall bin. · · · · · · Grain Max hopper bins feature all the standards you expect from a Meridian Built product - industry leading design advancements, material selection, premium powder coat finish and the best in warranty and customer service. · · · · Side access ladder Epon ester primer Bone white enamel top coat Rack & pinion roller slide gate with crank handle · 24" Discharge clearance · 25" Top lid · 40 Degree cone bottom In-Line Fan and Duct OPTIONAL ITEMS · Aeration systems · Cone manway · Roof manhole · View glasses · Poke hole · Lift hooks · Bean ladders · Ladder cages Agricultural Product Catalog Forcing air into the center of the bin Providing a drying front that conforms to the grain Reducing static pressure Increasing fan efficiency up to 20% Reducing drying time by up to 50% Reducing operation costs Factory installed aeration systems are available for your hopper bottom bin from Meridian Mfg Group.

Feed bin capacities are based on 40 lbs/ft3. All fertilizer bins, steep cone bins and liquid bins capacities are based on 62 lbs/ft3. To select the most appropriate bin size for your storage needs follow these steps: · Determine product density (lbs/ft3). · Convert the total tonnage being stored to lbs, then divide by the density. The result is the cubic foot capacity you require. Example You need to store 100 MT of urea fertilizer with a density of 48 lbs. 100 x 2204 = 220,400 / 48 = 4592 (Min. ft3 required) Best model selection would be a 1620 or 1815. To calculate a bins holding capacity of a specific product, follow these steps: · Determine product density (lbs/ft3). · Multiply the bins cubic foot capacity by the product density, then divide by 2204. Example Your fertilizer blend weighs 57 lbs/ft3 and you're purchasing a model 1625 fertilizer bin. Model 1625 = 5851 ft3 x 57 lbs = 333,507 lbs / 2204 = 151 MT. Your new 1625 will hold about 151 MT of your specific fertilizer blend.
