Manhole cover
When gravity discharge is made
(with gravity, without giving air
into the tank), one of the manhole
cover must be opened before starting the
discharge.
When loosening or tightening the clamps
of a manlid that is under pressure, the man-
lid can tear away explosively from the silo
tank and injure you or other people.
Never loosen or tighten the clamps of a
manlid when the silo vehicle is under pres-
sure.
If the thread of a hatch clamp is da-
maged, manlid can tear away
explosively from the silo tank and
injure you or others.
•
The silo vehicle should never be pla-
ced under pressure even if only one
thread is damaged.
•
Always only hand tighten the hatch
clamp crosswise.
•
Replace damaged threads immedia-
tely.
The damaged thread of a hatch
clamp cannot withstand the tank’s
internal pressure and tears off.
Follow these rules when closing or opening a
manlid:
•
Check that the sealing surfaces on the
manhole and manlid are clean and unda-
maged before closing.
•
After closing the manlid, tighten the
clamps crosswise evenly and tighten with
hand only.
•
Do not tighten the hatch clamps with your
foot, with a pipe, a hammer or any other
tool.
•
Never re-tighten or loosen the clamps of a
manlid when the silo tank is under pres-
sure.
•
Grease the thread of the hatch clamp re-
gularly.
4.1.2.13. Discharge Cone
The discharge cone is located at the rear of
the silo tank. The discharge cone can be used
for:
•
Entering into the silo tank in order to ins-
pect or clean it.
•
Checking whether the fluidiser air line is
clean.
•
Replacing the fluidiser air element.
Loosening
or
tightening
the
clamps of a discharge hole lids
that is under pressure may tear
away the discharge cone lids explosively
from the silo tank and cause injuring or de-
ath to you or other people.
Never loosen or tighten the clamps of a
discharge hole lids when the silo vehicle is
