Description
Probably the most flexible and multipurpose grain handling system produced by ABC Hansen is the Double Run Grainpump.
The in pipe flight mounted on an 81XH chain – moves grain with low noise, effectively – with minimal breakage – that is uncomparable to an auger type conveyance – both in breakage – and in power consumption – and much higher lifespan.
Due to the double round tube construction – the Double-run Grainpump is stiffer in construction and can cross longer spans unsupported by catwalks or cable stays than chain conveyors or augers/screw conveyors, reducing the cost of installation and the need for towers, catwalks, gantries and cable trusses.
The Double Run Grainpump is available in 165mm / 219mm / 273mm diameters – with capacities ranging from 50TPH up to 150TPH (based on maize)
The maximum length on the 219mm model is 100 meters – and it is possible to installe multiple inlets and intermediate outlets on the conveyor
The maximum angle of installation is 60º – far outpacing the maximum incline of belt conveyors and conventional chain conveyors.
The paddles are manufactured from high strength, UHMW material – and are supported to the chain by a 8mm backing plate – ensuring low wear and virtually eliminating downtime due to broken flights/paddles.
In standard configuration – the unit is equiped with a head drive section, and a boot intake section.
These conveyors can be installed as cross conveyors over silos or bins, or as loading conveyors from ground level into bin – due to their ability to run at high inclines.
The conveyor is as standard driven by an electric motor – coupled with v-belts to a shaft mounted reduction drive
