Product overviewBIODRY is Strahl’s range of mobile dryers engineered for cereals, legumes and seeds that require protected, contaminant‑free drying air. The unit uses an indirect‑combustion system with a stainless‑steel heat exchanger that keeps combustion air entirely separate from drying air. The compact, efficient boiler and large exchange surface minimise thermal losses and emissions while supporting fast, uniform drying for farms, contractors and processing facilities focused on traceability and product integrity.
Key benefits- Contaminant‑free drying: Combustion and drying air streams are separated to avoid contact between combustion gases and product, meeting requirements of organic and high‑traceability supply chains.
- Improved energy efficiency: Large stainless‑steel heat exchanger maximises thermal recovery to reduce fuel consumption at equivalent throughput.
- Uniform product quality: Continuous internal movement ensures homogenous drying, improving shelf life and downstream processing consistency.
- Shorter drying cycles: Large heat‑exchange surface and flow design allow rapid moisture removal without compromising product characteristics.
Main components and functions- Loading hopper: Facilitates product loading and initial separation of foreign materials.
- Central auger: Transports product upward and reintroduces it into the drying chamber; assists with discharge.
- Swivel discharge: Allows gravity discharge or, where no slope exists, discharge via an electrically driven auger.
- Heat exchanger (stainless steel): Fully separates combustion air from drying air to protect product quality.
- Fan: Draws ambient air through the preheated furnace and into the drying bell to reduce moisture content.
- Expulsion cleaner: Removes impurities using a drop‑expulsion mechanism.
- Electrical panel (automatic/manual): Centralised control of all dryer functions.
- Drive options (PTO and/or electric): Available with PTO (cardan), electric or mixed drive depending on operational needs.
- Temperature sensors: Monitor product temperature throughout the drying cycle.
