Silo Elevating Conveyor (R-1) <br />A 600 foot 48 inch conveyor carries coal from the truck <br />dump to the top of the silos. The elevating conveyor <br />rests on bent construction, is covered and is loaded by <br />a vibratory feeder. The electrically driven belt is <br />powered at the ground level with a gravity tensioning <br />system located at ground level near the drive system. <br />8. Coal Storage Silos L <br />Three concrete cylindrical silos are used to store up to <br />21,000 tons of coal as a reserve live storage facility for <br />the loading of 115 car unit trains. These coal silos are <br />fitted with individual bag house dust collection systems. <br />The silos are filled with coal hauled to the truck dump, <br />which in turn is delivered to the top of the silo via the <br />silo elevating conveyor. Two short conveyors (R-2, R- <br />3) which runs across the top of the silos can selectively <br />fill each silo. Vibratory feeders fitted under the base of <br />each silo deliver gravity fed coal onto the train loadout <br />elevating conveyor. These coal silos operate under the <br />limitations of the Colorado Department of Health and <br />Environment Construction Permit 11 DL252-7. <br />2.05-8 3101 <br />
