ABOUT THE BIN:
This new steep cone portable field bin (35deg) has been designed to run
the more stubborn grain types, this will also include Urea and most granular fertilizers. The bin has been designed
with all the features of our standard 340 bag bins (i.e. large roll back lid operated from the ground). Due to the steep
cone on the bottom and high ground clearance under the outlet slide to accommodate tube conveyors, the overall height has
increased by 230mm to 4.23m. This has also decreased the actual wall height of the bin by 450mm. With all these
dimension changes it will still allow most new harvestors to centre fill and allow the bin to be transported on a low loader
within the 4.9m height limit. Otherwise permits and ETSA Utility Permits need to be obtained normally at a cost, which
is handed onto the user. The bottom outlet has a detachable slide on type boot for auger use at harvest if the tube
conveyor alternative is not used.

The cu-metre dimension and tonnage is as per AS.3729-1989 Farm Silo Storage
