"ENERGY-PAK”
★ *WHAT IS AN "ENERGY-PAK"
OXYGEN CONTROLLED
FEED STORAGE SYSTEM?
The "Energy-Pak” “Oxygen Controlled” Storage
System includes a solid, steel reinforced concrete wall
with a tough epoxy coating on the inside wall and a cone
shaped concrete roof All access openings to the Silage
Storage area are round and fitted with air-tight gaskets
These round openings are easily clamped tight These
features help to control and limit the amount of oxygen
that comes in contact with the feed
In operating an “Energy-Pak”, prime importance is
placed on closing the si'o after each filling and feeding
operation Proper use of this system significantly
reduces the oxygen content in the silo and results in a
more ideal condition for maintaining the quality of the
feed put into it
