Covertec Silo Cover Gas-Tight
This standard roof construction is a single-skin silo cover used with primary and secondary fermenters or final storage containers for the purpose of collecting and utilizing residual gas while minimizing odour emissions. The cover is clamped to the internal face of the silo to produce a gas-tight seal.
With the premium-grade model, the gas-tight seal is positioned on the top edge of the container, thus allowing the cover to be opened even when the silo is full.
