WAM South Africa launching new innovation from WAMGROUP at Electra Mining Africa 2024.
WAM South Africa is thrilled to announce its participation in Electra Mining Africa 2024. This event is where inspiration and innovation converge. Staying updated on the latest innovations in your industry can be challenging, but at Electra Mining Africa 2024, you will have the opportunity to explore cutting-edge technology. The event will feature presentations from industry pioneers and host hundreds of exhibitors from the mining, electrical, automation, manufacturing, power, and transport sectors all under one roof. This is an excellent opportunity to discover products and solutions that can streamline your business for optimal performance.
At the event, WAM South Africa will introduce the new innovation from WAMGROUP, the Polytube!
Think one step further
SILOTOP® polyTUBE™ Silo Venting Filter
Building on the worldwide success of the SILOTOP® zero filter unit, WAM have introduced their next generation silo venting filter - SILOTOP® polyTUBE™. Specifically designed for concrete batching plants, this filter gives excellent performance and is smaller, quieter, lighter, has fewer parts and has substantially lower running costs.
The polyTUBE™ filter cartridges are cleaned using pulse mechanical cleaning instead of the traditional method of reverse-jet cleaning, eliminating the use of compressed air. Compressed air requires large amounts of electricity and this electricity is responsible for significant financial cost and CO2 emissions.
During the cleaning process, an impulse is triggered by a cam and a small electric motor, which is distributed evenly over the head of the polyTUBE™ element by means of a plate diffuser. Compared to compressed air-based cleaning, this mechanical cleaning requires far less energy, generates three times less operating noise & protects the filter medium.
The SILOTOP® polyTUBE™ has a differential pressure gauge which monitors the resistance to the air flow through the cartridges and uses this to trigger a cleaning cycle only when necessary. Most filter units of this kind can only be set to fire a reverse-jet pulse of air at a fixed time interval, e.g. every 30 seconds, increasing compressed air usage.
Come to visit our stand at Electra Mining Africa 2024, Hall 6, stand number K14 from September 2nd to 6th.

- Excellent filtration performance
- No compressed air required
- Lower running costs than reverse-jet filters
- Far lower CO2 emissions, as less electricity used
- 3 x quieter than reverse-jet filters
