AeroSpreader™ S1000 Feed Broadcaster

The AeroSpreader S1000 is our largest hopper sized stationary or mobile model dry pellet aquaculture feeder designed to handle 2.0 to 11.0 mm extruded feed pellets using a 9.0 hp Honda® motor direct driving an Aerite AB150 model blower. An optional Aerite AB150E model electrically powered and frequency drive controlled blower is also available for stationary AeroSpreader S1000 feeder models to provide even higher feed delivery volumes and feed broadcast distances. The 1,000-kilo/2,200 lb capacity marine aluminum hopper is specifically sized to work with these larger Aerite AB150 model centrifugal blower to provide operators the benefits of maximum feed rates and broadcast distances from a feeder sized for mobile operation. This model AeroSpreader is the largest wheeled model offered operating on large pneumatic wheels for easy rolling over deck or walkway ropes and cable obstacles.

Just a few of the many equipment options include remote stainless steel cable controls for operator selection of best feed blower speed and feed delivery rates, ideal for vessel bridge or truck cab positioning. A range of feed broadcast hose configurations can be selected including the self-supporting 360-degree manually aimed Periscope Feed Head™ shown here to an electrically powered, operator aimed Periscope Feed Head™ designed for optimum hands-free operations using an automatically oscillating feed broadcast head. For operators requiring the maximum feed broadcast distances possible, IAS offers a fully supported feed boom assembly that positions a long length of feed broadcast tube for optimum feed spread and coverage.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

Lined Feed Broadcast Hose

An all stainless steel feed broadcast hose with a smooth inner liner maximizes feed broadcast hose operating life and feed pellet broadcast distances.

Low Maintenance

Tough marine grade aluminum hopper will not rust.

Direct Drive Blower

A direct drive Aerite™ AB150 model blower requires no belt/pulley adjustments. 12.7 cm/5-inch Blower Outlet: Large air volume air plenum for high volume feed delivery rates and broadcast coverage.
