Silo overfill protection system

Prevent silo overfilling and excess pressurization with a system designed to safeguard silos during filling operations, reducing the risk of costly structural damage and environmental pollution.

Prevents Overfilling and Regulates Silo Pressure

The Silo Safety System KCS from WAMGROUP provides an innovative solution for preventing overfilling and excess pressurization in silos. This system is essential for industries handling various powder and granule materials, including cement, plastics, and food products. It integrates seamlessly into automated production lines with its central electronic control panel managing up to 32 silos simultaneously. The system incorporates advanced features such as maximum level indication, internal pressure monitoring, and automatic filter cleaning to minimize dust emission and protect silo infrastructure. With components like pinch valves, pressure relief valves, and differential pressure meters, it ensures operational safety and environmental compliance. Tailored for continuous, automated safety monitoring, the KCS system enhances site safety and helps prevent costly damage, offering significant advantages for diverse applications ranging from chemical manufacturing to food processing.
