Brown Bear Corporation has introduced the new R31 series paddle aerator attachments for aeration of compost windrows.
- The 31-inch diameter aerator provides an economical mechanical solution for forming windrows, blending bulking agents or additives, pulverizing and aerating or water mixing for aerobic windrow composting.
- The rapid handling rate exposes 100% of the material to oxygen so noxious odors are minimized.
- This unit attaches to high flow skid steers and high flow compact track loaders. The aerator attachment is designed to be used with flows of up to 50 GPM and pressures up to 5500 PSI.
- The R31 series is available with or without the universal skid steer hitch and in 10-foot width. Typical installation would be on the Caterpillar 272D XHP skid steer, the Caterpillar 299D XHP compact track loader, the Terex PT-100 and PT-110 compact tracked loaders or other similar carriers.
- Drive to the aerator rotor is through the high flow hydraulic system of the carrier, via piston motor to a planetary gear reduction and then via an oil bath lubricated final chain drive.
