Description

Seadrec Loading Towers enable dredge operators to achieve increased production and efficiency when loading the required quality of cargo.

Primarily used on Sand and Gravel Dredges, more dredge operators are opting for loading towers, the benefits which include increased hopper capacity, specified cargo grading ranging from ‘all-in’ cargo to screened cargoes, reduction of hopper overflow losses and overboard discharge of unwanted material.

When stowed, the loading towers provide a clear space over the hopper allowing unhindered use of unloading gear such as bucket wheel unloaders.

Seadrec have designed, supplied, and installed a range of loading towers to suit different sizes of pumping systems and dredge sizes.

Seadrec loading towers come fitted as standard with:

    • Hinged Load Chute for Graded Cargo
    • Sand/Reject Chute (Hinged optional)
    • Access Platform
    • Enclosed Ball Bearing Slew Ring for 300⁰ swing angle
    • Portable Screen Plates
    • Deck Pedestal (Optional or Shipyard Supply)
    • Boil Box
