The Design

This Norbin aeration floor hopper has a patented double floor design similar to what you would find in a flat bottom bin. The entire hopper cone is covered by the aeration floor allowing air to reach all of the grain including the bin corners. The result is a uniform airflow throughout the bin no areas for moisture to accumulate and a lower static pressure which allows the same fan to move more air. The perforated floor works with a wide range of grain sizes including canola.

Because of the airflow coverage this type of hopper works especially well for wet bins. Farmers also pair it with a heater fan to help dry crops such as beans.

Choose from two designs:
  1. NorBin Hopper with Full-Floor Hopper Bin Aeration.
  2. NorBin retrofit full air system, designed to fit in your existing hopper.
