S-COVER
The S-COVER is a cone-shaped tensioned cover designed to seal open tanks. Its main purpose is to protect the silo’s contents from rainwater, prevent the emission of hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) and other biogas components into the atmosphere, and eliminate unpleasant odors.
The structure is made from a durable reinforced polyester fabric with a double-sided PVC coating, ensuring a long service life and resistance to aggressive environments.
In many European countries, strict environmental regulations require the covering of storage facilities for manure and other liquid waste. The S-COVER is the ideal solution to meet these requirements. It effectively prevents the emission of hydrogen sulfide and biogas, controls unpleasant odors, and protects the tank’s contents from rainwater, thus avoiding unnecessary increases in volume and removal costs.
It is an effective and economical way to cover various types of silos—whether concrete, steel, or wooden.
Construction and Materials that Guarantee Durability
The foundation of our covers’ reliability is the materials. We exclusively use high-quality reinforced polyester fabric with a double-sided PVC coating from leading manufacturers. This ensures exceptional resistance to aggressive substances (manure, slurry, chemicals), UV radiation, and extreme weather conditions.
The S-COVER structure is equipped with a fastening system of edge pipes and tensioning mechanisms. This system evenly transfers the load from the cone to the perimeter of the silo wall, ensuring stability and reliability. The tension can be easily adjusted during operation. The silo cover can be manufactured in both gas-tight and non-gas-tight versions.
Maintenance and Service Life
The S-COVER is designed for maximum durability and minimal maintenance. Thanks to the use of high-quality materials from leading suppliers and the well-thought-out engineering by the Flexsol team, the cover does not require complex technical care, which significantly reduces operational costs.
To ensure a long service life, only a few simple seasonal measures are recommended:
-
Snow Load Control: After heavy snowfalls, snow must be removed from the surface to avoid excessive load on the structure.
-
Tension Check: Periodically check and, if necessary, adjust the tension of the straps. This ensures the correct cone geometry, effective water drainage, and overall stability of the cover.
This simplicity in operation guarantees that your silo cover will serve reliably for many years, protecting your investment.
