A DryAir grain drying system consists of a number of portable heating coils in front of aeration fans. The central heat source is a natural gas or propane fired hydronic boiler. The heated fluid is pumped and circulated through coils located at the air intake of the heating module. The heated air is then delivered to the bin.
The DryAir system is a grain management tool designed to be incorporated into a farmer's fall operation. It will expand the harvest window and help remove some risk from the harvesting operation. Because of the low operating cost and minimal supervision, users have been able to harvest much earlier, taking off grain with moisture contents over 20%.
“In-Bin” drying of grain inherently dries the bottom of the bin beyond the target of ‘legal dry’ before the top kernel is dried. That is the nature of this system and where more than 3 or 4 points of moisture need to be removed, moving of the grain is necessary to blend moisture levels.
DRYING GRAIN REQUIRES MOVING GRAIN. All drying systems require the grain to be moved. With Dryair this is not generally required when only a couple of points of moisture are to be removed. At 3 or 4 or more points of moisture needing removal, the mixing resulting from moving is required.
Grain dried with Dryair does not suffer the loss of quality or germination often associated with high temperature drying—a definite plus.
