Proper airflow supports grain and seed quality during storage. Designed for Meridian SmoothWall hopper bins, AirMax® 360 uses a continuous duct around the hopper cone to direct air toward the centre of the grain mass and promote more even airflow.

The system eliminates perforated screens inside the hopper, leaving fewer places for grain, seed or debris to collect. This simplifies cleanout between crops or varieties and helps reduce the risk of cross-contamination.

FAQ

AirMax® 360 is designed for compatible Meridian SmoothWall hopper bins used for grain and seed storage. Available configurations vary by bin model and diameter. Talk with your local Meridian dealer to confirm the right aeration system for your bin.

Traditional aeration systems often rely on perforated screens installed inside the hopper. AirMax® 360 uses a continuous air duct around the perimeter of the hopper cone, eliminating internal screens while directing air toward the center of the grain mass.

Because there are no perforated screens inside the hopper, there are fewer places for seed to become trapped. This can simplify cleanout between varieties and help reduce the risk of cross-contamination.

Yes. The system is designed to move air through the stored grain, helping support cooling and conditioning during storage. Proper aeration can play an important role in maintaining grain quality over time.

No. While it is particularly beneficial for seed applications, AirMax® 360 can also be used for grain storage where aeration and simplified cleanout are priorities.

Aeration is worth considering whenever grain or seed will be stored for an extended period. Proper airflow can help maintain product condition, support cooling, and improve storage management throughout the year.
