The most common failure: worn aeration pads causing slow or failed discharge. PHS Magnum stocks parts for Spitzer BT and Feldbinder Cement/Powder series — same-day repair for most pneumatic faults. Mobile service available on the A4 motorway within 100 km of Chorula, response time 45–110 minutes.</p> <hr> <p>The pneumatic system is the heart of a silo trailer. Without functioning valves, aeration pads and pressure lines, the trailer cannot discharge cargo. A pneumatic failure on the road is not just a missed delivery — it means a customer complaint, driver and trailer downtime, and often a contractual penalty.</p> https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/awaria-na-trasie/ Mon, 18 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/awaria-na-trasie/ <h2 id="in-brief">In Brief</h2> <p><strong>Silo trailer breakdown on the A4</strong> in Poland: PHS Magnum mobile service covers 100 km around Chorula — from Wrocław through Opole to Katowice and Gliwice. Response time 45–110 minutes. Roadside repairs: pneumatic valves, aeration pads, EBS diagnostics (Wabco TEBS G2/G3), brake cylinders, emergency welding. Pressure vessel cracks require towing to workshop (TDT-certified welder mandatory). Emergency: <strong>+48 602 716 551</strong> (24/7).</p> <hr> <p>A silo trailer breakdown on the road means every hour of downtime costs money. A missed delivery means lost revenue and, with a fixed-volume contract, penalty clauses. Fast mobile service at the breakdown location is worth more than the cheapest workshop you have to tow to.</p> https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/ebs-diagnostics/ Mon, 18 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/ebs-diagnostics/ <h2 id="in-brief">In Brief</h2> <p>EBS (Electronic Braking System) diagnostics covers Wabco TEBS G2/G3/G4 and Haldex EB+ Gen 2/3 systems. Fault code reading, sensor calibration, module programming. Mobile diagnostics on the A4 within 100 km of Chorula: 45–110 min response. Quotation on request.</p> <hr> <p>Electronic braking systems (EBS) have replaced conventional pneumatic ABS in modern silo trailers. Wabco TEBS G2/G3 or Haldex EB+ is the standard in bulk trailers and cement tankers. An EBS fault is not merely a dashboard warning — it represents a real risk of roadside detention and degraded braking performance, particularly under full load.</p> https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/tank-crack-repair/ Mon, 18 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/tank-crack-repair/ <h2 id="in-brief">In Brief</h2> <p>Tank crack repair on a silo trailer requires TDT-certified welding and a special TDT review before returning to service. Repair time: 2–4 days plus 5–10 days for TDT inspector. Free assessment on request.</p> <hr> <p>A tank crack on a silo trailer immediately excludes the vehicle from pressurised operation. There is no option to apply a temporary sealant and &ldquo;drive to the workshop&rdquo; — the 2–3.5 bar working pressure in the tank creates a risk of sudden rupture when a weld is compromised.</p> https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/paint-renovation/ Mon, 18 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/paint-renovation/ <h2 id="in-brief">In Brief</h2> <p>Full paint renovation: sandblasting to Sa 2.5 (ISO 8501-1), two-coat epoxy primer (C4 class), two-coat PUR 2K topcoat. Duration: 5–7 days. Coating durability: 8–12 years. Combinable with TDT preparation for one efficient workshop visit. Quotation on request.</p> <hr> <p>A silo trailer after 8–12 years looks worn even when the tank is sound and the pneumatic system works. Rusted walls, peeling paint, illegible markings — this is not just aesthetics. Sub-surface corrosion advances invisibly, attacking the metal beneath the old coating. The best prevention is full renovation down to bare metal with a professional coating system.</p> https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/brake-repair/ Mon, 18 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/brake-repair/ <h2 id="in-brief">In Brief</h2> <p>Brake system repair covers EBS diagnostics (Wabco TEBS G2/G3/G4, Haldex EB+), drum and disc brakes, cylinder replacement, and air suspension on BPW, SAF and ROR axles. Mobile repairs on the A4 within 100 km. Quotation on request.</p> <hr> <p>The brake system is responsible for the safety of the entire road train. Modern silo trailers have electronically controlled EBS brakes instead of conventional ABS — the system actively controls braking force at each wheel according to axle load. An EBS fault is not just a warning light: it represents a real reduction in braking effectiveness, particularly under full load.</p> https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/valve-regeneration/ Mon, 18 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/valve-regeneration/ <h2 id="in-brief">In Brief</h2> <p><strong>Silo trailer valve regeneration</strong> (ball and butterfly valves DN80–DN200) replaces worn PTFE/EPDM seals and moving components while retaining the intact valve body. Signs of a worn valve: material leakage when closed, stiff lever, air leak under working pressure. Regeneration does not require a TDT inspection — only full replacement of a valve welded to the pressure vessel requires a special inspection. PHS Magnum regenerates valves for Spitzer, Feldbinder, Kassbohrer and all common European silo trailer manufacturers.</p> https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/axle-repair/ Mon, 18 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/axle-repair/ <h2 id="in-brief">In Brief</h2> <p>Axle service covers BPW, SAF, ROR and Jost systems: bearing replacement, hub repair, air suspension, and brake integration. Bearing replacement on one hub: 2–4 hours. Complete axle service: 1 working day. Quotation on request.</p> <hr> <p>A trailer axle carries the full payload weight and transmits braking forces. A 44-tonne loaded silo trailer puts several tonnes through each axle. At these load levels, bearings, hubs and suspension wear faster than on passenger vehicles — and the consequences of failure are proportionately more serious.</p> https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/silo-trailer-faults/ Mon, 18 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/silo-trailer-faults/ <h2 id="in-brief">In Brief</h2> <p><strong>Silo trailer faults</strong> fall into three groups: (1) pneumatic and aeration system — worn pads, valve failures, pressure leaks (~50% of all call-outs); (2) tank and welds — cracks at hatches, supports and nozzles (~20%); (3) running gear — bearings, brakes, EBS (~30%). Most pneumatic failures show warning signs 2–4 weeks before becoming critical. Diagnosis at our workshop: 1–4 hours. PHS Magnum has 30+ years of silo trailer service experience and stocks parts for Spitzer, Feldbinder and Kassbohrer trailers.</p> https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/silonaczep-nie-rozladowuje/ Mon, 18 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/silonaczep-nie-rozladowuje/ <h2 id="in-brief">In Brief</h2> <p><strong>Silo trailer discharge failure</strong> is most commonly caused by worn aeration pads (60% of cases), aeration lines blocked by set cement (20%), or a compressor fault (15%). Before calling for service: check the pressure gauge — if the compressor reaches 3+ bar but no material moves, the problem is in the aeration system, not the compressor.</p> <hr> <p>A discharge problem is one of the most costly operational failures — the driver is standing at the customer&rsquo;s site, time is running, and the material won&rsquo;t come out. The following is a systematic guide from the simplest cause to the most complex.</p> https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/tdt-failed-inspection/ Wed, 15 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://magnumchorula.pl/en/serwis/tdt-failed-inspection/ <h2 id="in-brief">In Brief</h2> <p><strong>TDT refusal</strong> means the TDT inspector found defects preventing safe operation of the pressurised vessel. The trailer cannot transport bulk cargo under pressure until faults are resolved and a re-inspection passes. Most common causes: pressure test leak, defective safety valve, corroded tank wall, incomplete documentation. PHS Magnum repairs the identified faults and organises re-inspection with the TDT inspector at our workshop — typically 3–7 working days from arrival.</p>
