Snowmelter 60-PD – Trinity

Snowmelter 60-PD

description

The Trecan 60-PD has a capacity of melting 60 tons of snow per hour. Its 12 million BTU/hr burner can melt 114 to 230 cubic meters of snow with an average snow density of 15 to 30 lbs/cu. ft. per hour. The model 60-PD is the choice of many cities, municipalities, large snow contractors, universities and shopping malls. The melting tank is available in a narrow 8’6” width or a standard 10’ width. It can be loaded with a typical front end loader and towed with a dump truck or other heavy-duty truck.

 

 

The melting tank is loaded from the back of the trailer. The carbon steel melting tank is typically 10′ (3.05m) wide, but can be ordered in a narrow version 8′ 6″ (2.59m) wide, or an extended version 12′ (3.66m) wide. A clean out door is located on the back of the melting tank for removal of sediment, debris and water when melting is complete. An optional debris removal aid reduces the time to clean the melting tank. During operation, the melt water exits the tank through overflow drains located at the front of the tank and on either side of the trailer.

 

 

Other options include: plug-in immersion heaters, battery charger, jet fuel rated components, stainless steel melting tank, custom paint colors, and engine room acoustic insulation.
