Loading / Discharging Sys-
tem
4.1.2.1. Air Mixture Battery
The air mixture battery is mounted at rear right
side of the silo tank. It controls flow of the air,
which is used while the vehicle is discharging,
by means of fluidiser air (3), jet air (4) and top
air lines (5) located on it. This enables you to
discharge the material from the tank and cont-
rol the inside pressure of the silo tank.
Use the side air line (2) to connect the air
mixture battery to the compressor that is
equipped on the vehicle or that is external.
There is a check valve on the side air line to
prevent the pressurized air return back, cau-
sing a compressor failure.
Also the safety valve (6) which limits the ope-
rating pressure in the silo tank is mounted on
the air mixture battery.

Connect the compressed air to the
air line only if you are going to use
(2). Close the connection with the
cap (7) when you do not use.
Components transferring comp-
ressed air can reach high tempera-
tures when in operation and can
caouse burns if touched. Do not forget to
wear protective gloves when you pressu-
rize the connections.
If you open blind covers or coup-
lings on the air battery of a silo
tank that is under pressure, there
is a risk that it will open explosively. If this
happens, you or others could be seriously
injured. Therefore, check whether the sys-
tem is under pressure before opening blind
cover or couplings, vent the air battery or
the silo tank completely.
4.1.2.2. Side Air Line
It is the air line that supplies air for the system
by connecting to the compressor that is
equipped on the vehicle or that is external. The
portion of it which is connected to the either
compressor or air battery is made of flexible
hose for easiness of use. A check valve is
equipped on the side air line to prevent the air
to enter to the compressor and a cause a fai-
lure by returning back.
