Bin Stiffeners
Shivvers offers bin reinforcements for standard duty or older grain bins. Bin stiffeners allow use of an existing bin that might otherwise need to be replaced before use as a wet holding bin or drying tank.
Clean-out Door
The clean-out door is an opening in the bin's plenum area allowing any fines to be blown out from under the drying floor. Keeping the plenum area clean allows better air flow through the floor for grain drying. Clean-out doors are available in 12” & 15” heights to fit most plenums.
Roof Vents
Roof vents allow the drying air to be exhausted from the drying tank. During the counter-flow drying process, a large volume of heated air is blown into and up through the grain. As the moisture-laden air exits the grain it moves upward in the tank towards the roof. Roof vents permit the saturated air to exit the tank, preventing moisture from condensing on the inside of the roof and dripping back into the top layer of grain.
Slide Gate Opener
The slide gate opener provides a helping hand, providing a lever to open the slide gate in the center basket to allow for unloading the bin. It eliminates any strain needed to open the slide gate with the extra weight of grain setting on it. The slide gate opener is available in 6” and 8” diameters.
Intermediate Well
The intermediate well is an additional gravity flow outlet for use on horizontal unloads. Additional outlets for the grain, including the center well, speeds bin unloading on all Shivvers CIRCU-LATOR and DRI-FLO units. Intermediate wells are available in 6” and 8” sizes.
Auxiliary Sweep Auger
Generally , if you were to completely fill your drying bin, gravity could only pull so much grain out of your drying tank if you wanted to unload it from the bottom. With a Shivvers CIRCU-LATOR I or CIRCU-LATOR Jr, the auxiliary sweep auger is a carry-in unit that aids in cleaning out the bin after the grain has reached the angle of repose. It features a drag board that virtually sweeps the bin clean. All you need is a few minutes with a broom. For use with Circulator I and Circulator Jr machines ONLY.
Belt Shield
The Shivvers Performance System Belt shield insures safety and offers access to the belts and jaw clutch for easy routine maintenance.
