Installing the Blower
Expanded Aspirator
The 3 hp Blower Unit generates the
vacuum force needed to extract the
debris from the discharging grain.
Preassembled and tested at GSI, the
blower is ready to install upon
delivery. Standard wiring of the 3
hp motor eases the time of
installation. A control option is
available to utilize the dryer control
circuit to operate the Aspirator when
the dryer is in operation.
