In Brief
PHS Magnum holds a stock of spare parts for Spitzer SF and SK series silo trailers at our facility in Chorula near Opole: aeration pads (EPDM, FDA silicone, polyester, PTFE), butterfly valves DN100–DN150 (aluminium and 316L stainless steel), hatch and flange seals, transfer hoses, and Camlock couplings. Consumable items are available ex-stock; genuine Spitzer parts from the Elztal-Dallau factory are ordered on request (7–14 days). Courier delivery across Poland and throughout the EU (EU VAT invoice, material certificates included). When ordering, please provide the trailer model and serial number. Ask for a quote.
Spitzer SF and SK — Aluminium Silo Trailers
Spitzer Silo-Fahrzeugwerke GmbH (Elztal-Dallau, Germany) manufactures silo trailers with aluminium tanks for bulk material transport. The two main families are the SF series (non-tipping, pneumatic-aeration discharge) and the SK CAL series (tipping, hydraulically raised tank). The SF design features a cylindrical aluminium tank with an aeration system (pads), pneumatic discharge via transfer pipes and butterfly valves.
PHS Magnum maintains a spare-parts stock for Spitzer trailers — from standard consumables (seals, pads, filters) to specialist structural components (valve sections, lower manifolds, SK tipping-system elements).
SF and SK Series — Differences and Parts
SF Series (Non-Tipping, approx. 23–63 m³)
Silo trailers with a horizontal tank and pneumatic-aeration discharge up to approx. 2 bar. Used for PE/PP granules, flour, cement, gypsum, and animal feed. Smaller capacities (e.g. SF 2734, approx. 34 m³) are used for heavier materials where payload is the limiting factor; larger units (SF 2755 approx. 55 m³, SF 2763 approx. 63 m³) suit lightweight granules. Aeration pads: EPDM for cement/gypsum (abrasive — faster wear, replacement every 18–24 months under heavy use), FDA silicone for flour and sugar.
SK CAL Series (Tipping, approx. 38–89 m³)
Silo trailers in which the tank is raised hydraulically during discharge. Suited to gravel, sand, sugar, salt, plastic granules, and pellets. In addition to the usual consumables, the SK requires servicing of the hydraulic tipping system (cylinders, hoses, pump).
SF vs SK Comparison — What Determines Part Selection
| Feature | SF Series | SK CAL Series |
|---|---|---|
| Tank type | Horizontal, fixed | Hydraulically raised (tipping) |
| Discharge | Pneumatic-aeration | Gravity on tipping |
| Capacity | approx. 23–63 m³ | approx. 38–89 m³ |
| Typical loads | PE/PP granules, flour, cement, gypsum, animal feed | Gravel, sand, sugar, salt, pellets, granules |
| Key consumable parts | Aeration pads, butterfly valves, hatch seals | As above + hydraulic tipping system (cylinders, hoses, pump) |
| Service specifics | Aeration system and pneumatics | Additionally: tank-raising hydraulics |
Elastomer selection for seals depends on the material transported: EPDM for cement, lime, and industrial granules; FDA silicone for food-grade products; Viton/FPM for chemicals and oils; PTFE for the highest chemical and temperature resistance.
