Calculating power consumption
For a directly coupled gear motor, power consumption in kW is:
(K × Y × (H + 6)) / 347
where
K = capacity in tonnes per hour
Y = 1.15 for grain and 1.25 for flour
H = height in metres
The maximum amount per bucket is reduced to 75% of the maximum number of buckets as for the conveyance of flour.
Please note that counterflow feeding will reduce the capacity by about 15%.
