Plants give contractors control of asphalt
ADM’s highly compact SPL Series of portable and stationary parallel-flow asphalt plants is available in three models ranging from 30 to 110 US tph (27 to 100 metric tons per hour). They produce consistently high-quality mix for surprisingly affordable start-up and operating costs, giving contractors a competitive edge on smaller production jobs and a quick payback on their investment.
Fuel efficiency is also critical to a contractor’s cost. The SPL employs a parallel-flow drum design for fast, even drying of aggregate using a fuel-efficient, multi-fuel, refractorless Hauck burner.
The SPL’s one-load portability combines the drying/ mixing drum, cold-feed bin and surge system all on a single trailer frame. Installation, start-up and asphalt production can be accomplished within two to three days of site preparation.
SPLs operate on any commercial three-phase electrical power, and the fuel-efficient Hauck refractorless burner can burn a variety of fuels, including heavy fuel oil.
Either an environmental wet wash or optional baghouse system is included. Contractors also have a choice of various options such as manual or automated operation, 30-ton and 50-ton stationary or portable self-erect silos and additional cold-feed bins.
Further cost savings are made possible by the use of standard, “off-the-shelf” components in the SPL for easy-to-locate, low-cost replacement parts found anywhere in the world. And the plant’s uncomplicated design allows most maintenance to be performed by the plant operator or aggregate loader.
