Brock Commercial Tower Dryer

The Brock® Commercial Tower Grain Dryer is engineered for high-capacity, continuous-flow drying, with processing rates ranging from 3,000 to 7,000 bushels (75 to 175 metric tons) per hour. Building upon the reliable performance of Brock’s MEYER ENERGY MISER® Tower Grain Dryers, this model introduces advanced features that enhance both energy efficiency and drying capabilities in grain bins.

Designed with top-quality materials and energy-efficient technology, the Brock Commercial Tower Dryer ensures optimal grain conditioning, reducing energy consumption while maintaining uniform moisture content. User-friendly features make operation and maintenance simpler, providing convenience alongside high-performance drying. Whether you are handling small or large quantities, Brock’s commercial dryer is the ideal solution for maximizing grain quality and profitability.

Features include:

• Narrower Top Columns: The narrower column design at the top of the dryer improves airflow, enabling quicker moisture removal from the wettest grain and accelerating the drying process from the start.

• Durable Stainless Steel Screens: The use of stainless steel screens with perforations in two sizes (.078 and .062) ensures efficient particle containment, contributing to a cleaner and more reliable drying operation.

• High-Capacity Commercial Burner: A Maxon® burner, standard on all BROCK Commercial Tower Dryers, provides high-efficiency, low-emission performance. Its cast aluminum manifold reduces orifice corrosion, while its centrifugal fans and square burner mounting allow for even heat distribution, maximizing combustion efficiency and heat mixing throughout the system.

• DWDI Centrifugal Fans: Double-wide, double-inlet (DWDI) centrifugal fans are integral to BROCK’s drying system, offering increased air delivery while reducing horsepower requirements. These fans promote uniform air movement, and the twin-fan configuration provides easy access for maintenance.

• Self-Cleaning Plenum Floor: Brock’s self-cleaning heat plenum floor minimizes particle buildup by recirculating particles back into the grain, ensuring safe operation and reducing cleaning maintenance.

• Unobstructed Grain Columns: Fresh air, electrical conduits, and gas piping enter from the bottom of the dryer, not through the grain columns, ensuring consistent grain flow and more efficient drying. Adjustable air inlet louvers help regulate cool air intake, optimizing drying conditions.

• Gentle Grain Unloading System: The Circular Drag Grain Unloading System (patented) evenly meters grain from the columns and gently moves it to the unloading point, reducing stress on the grain and improving the overall unloading process.

• Easy Access and Maintenance: Generous under-dryer clearance allows for easy walk-through access and accommodates auxiliary equipment, ensuring efficient servicing and operation.

• Commercial-Grade Plumbing: A block-and-bleed gas train with high and low gas safety switches is standard, providing reliable and safe gas control.

• QUANTUM® Dryer Controller: The advanced QUANTUM® Dryer Controller automatically regulates the drying process, ensuring precise moisture control and optimal drying conditions.
