Superior Manufacturing offers Excel mixed-flow under-fan grain
dryers. The dryers use half the BTUs of conventional screen dryers and 40 cfm
per bushel, according to the company. They combine gentle heat with longer
retention times for a low stress process that keeps grain quality intact.
The Excel dryer has capabilities ranging from
735 to 4,800 bushels per hour on single-phase power and 7,500 bushels per hour
on three-phase power, and fits operations of any size, from small family farms
to large commercial elevators. Models start at 10 tiers and can be expanded
onsite by adding up to 26 additional tiers to the top of the dryer. The dryers are
made with G90 galvanized steel to prevent rust and wear, and designs the dryers
so they require little maintenance. Excel dryers come standard with the Dryer
Master GM2 moisture monitor and a digital panel display.
