Air heating system

BMH Systems has developed an Air Heating System for aggregates, which can reduce heating costs up to 50% due to the fact that the energy transfer is better and complete. It's simple and efficient.

The gas furnace is connected to a fan with high static pressure. The air is heated by the furnace and then blown, by the fan, through diffusers installed at different levels inside the bin. The hot air will heat the sand and crushed stone to a predetermined temperature and the thermo-switches installed in every bin compartment will send a signal to stop the heating in the individual compartments when it reaches the set temperature.

Benefits
  • Reduce aggregate heating costs
  • No waste of energy for keeping hot water and steam all night long
  • No water leakage under bin and conveyor
  • No rust in aggregate bin
  • No maintenance on boiler
  • No chemical treatment
  • No need for specialized employees
  • Regain full slump control in winter, due to less moisture in the sand
  • More stable water-cement ratio during winter resulting in better strength control
