At last! An ensiler that allows you to handle a harvest bin-full in one go, without fuss. Using our new filling method, once the morts are in the bin, it's all over, nobody touches them again. Quick - clean - easy.
The ensiler employs a well-proven FLYGT® submersible chopper pump, housed in one of our own robust stainless steel tanks. We've worked hard to incorporate as many of the features our existing customers have suggested to us in recent years, to arrive at a system that is easy to use and to keep clean.
The ensiler has the facility to re-mix through a valve mounted on the side, as well as to empty itself either into an IBC or tank. As with our smaller machines, we've stuck with a no-fuss diaphragm pump to dispense the formic acid into the tank. It works well and has proven itself safe and reliable over recent years and is above all cheap and simple.
Filling the Supermort is easy. Most users simply tip a harvest bin of morts over the lip of the hopper by using the tilt forward action on their Loadall. It’s clean and simple. As an alternative, we've designed an easy-to-use 'cod ended' bag (extra) that acts as a liner for a standard sized harvest bin into which the morts are put. Once full, the lined bin is handled in the normal way to take it ashore, and fork lifted to a position close beside the ensiler. The bag is picked up out of the bin by its ears, a strop through the cod end keeping the bottom closed until the bag is positioned inside the hopper of the ensiler. The strop is then slipped off the forks, allowing the cod end to open and dump the morts into the tank.
An acid pump is mounted on the side of the tank and connects via a short hose. For safety reasons, a specially made plastic shroud covers the outside of the pump, so that in the unlikely event of a punctured diaphragm, the acid will be caught by the shroud.* The pump's suction hose is connected to the acid container by a 1" hose, camlock coupling and 2" screwed fitting.
Hatch Top Model
We're now offering a hatch top model as an alternative to the successful hopper top original. Having a hatch on the top allows a different method of filling by using a large bucket or tub hand-balled over the lip of the open lid. The unit is otherwise the same as the hopper model, with its 5.9kW Flygt submersible chopper pump and recirclating pipe system for total maceration and acid mixing.
