Round silo

PETKUS round silos are suitable for practically all types of cereals, oilseeds, feed and industrial pellets. They are made of galvanised galvanised sheet steel, which has undergone the Sendzimir Z600 zinc coating process to ensure high corrosion protection. The modular design of the round tanks allows for heights from 1 to 25 m and diameters from 3 to 32 m. PETKUS steel round tanks specifications are calculated according to ANSI/ASAE or EURO CODE product loads. Construction is carried out in accordance with EUROCODE construction standards.

The roof of the container is a self-supporting structure made of trapezoidal segments and equipped with ladders, inlet opening, inspection hatches and ventilation openings, and can also be equipped with roof and floor ventilation systems. The tanks can be equipped with temperature and level sensors and ladders, with a safety rail at the rear and a metal platform.

PETKUS round silos are available with flat and conical bottoms, and with a loading capacity. Flat-bottomed containers are used for long-term storage and are emptied by means of an unloader on a first-in, first-out basis. The conical tanks are equipped with a conical base inclined at 45° or 60°, depending on the characteristics of the product.
