Description
Portable and Efficient Cleanout for Multiple Bins
Achieve thorough grain bin cleanout with the versatile and portable Haven Industries Grain Saver Electric Bin Sweep (SKU: 502-22-1100). Often referred to as a "carry-in sweep," this unit is designed with a lightweight yet durable construction, allowing it to be easily moved and used across multiple bins of varying sizes within your farm operation.
Engineered for Portability and Performance:
The Grain Saver Electric Bin Sweep provides a practical solution for the final stages of bin unloading:
- Lightweight Portable Design: Engineered to be easily carried into a bin once grain levels are low enough for safe entry (following all safety protocols), allowing one sweep unit to service multiple storage structures.
- Complete Drive Package: Includes the core components needed for operation: a standard drive wheel (non-reduction), an easy-off motor mount for quick motor attachment/detachment, driven sheaves, drive belt(s), and a protective belt guard.
- Robust Backboard: Features a formed steel backboard designed to effectively guide grain towards the sweep auger flighting.
- Size Compatibility: Available in configurations designed to work seamlessly with standard underfloor unload systems:
- Sweeps for 8" unload systems utilize a 5" diameter sweep auger.
- Sweeps for 10" unload systems utilize a 7" diameter sweep auger.
- Adjustable for Bin Diameter: The sweep assembly is adjustable to fit a range of common bin diameters (e.g., 18 -21 , 22 -27 , 30 -37 , etc.), ensuring proper fit and function.
- Motor Ready: The easy-off motor mount simplifies the process of attaching the required electric motor (sold separately).
Benefits of the Electric Bin Sweep:
- Portability: Lightweight design allows for use in multiple bins, offering cost savings compared to dedicated sweeps per bin.
- Efficient Cleanout: Effectively gathers remaining grain towards the center sump, minimizing manual labor.
- Simple Operation: Straightforward design with electric motor drive (motor required).
- Adjustable Fit: Caters to various standard bin diameters.
- Safety Guarding: Includes a belt guard for operator safety.
Choose the Haven Industries Grain Saver Electric Bin Sweep for a flexible and efficient solution to finalize grain removal from your bins. Its portable nature makes it an economical choice for farms with multiple storage bins.

Configuration and Compatibility:
Selecting the correct Grain Saver Electric Bin Sweep involves matching it to your bins and unload system:
- Bin Diameter Range: Choose the sweep model designed for the diameter range of the bins you intend to use it in (e.g., 30 -37 ).
- Unload Size: Select the sweep compatible with your underfloor unload system size (8" unload uses 5" sweep, 10" unload uses 7" sweep).
- Motor Sizing: Determine the appropriate electric motor horsepower based on the sweep size (5" or 7") and the typical grain conditions encountered. Refer to the Haven Industries Bin Sweeps Manual recommendations or contact GHD customer service.
- Center Pivot: Ensure the center well of your unload system has a compatible pivot pin for the sweep to attach to.
- Portability: Remember this is a carry-in sweep. Ensure you have safe procedures for moving the sweep into and out of bins.
- Safety: Crucially, follow all bin entry safety procedures when installing or removing a carry-in sweep. Never enter a bin with grain bridging or while unloading equipment is running. Always use lockout/tagout procedures before connecting/disconnecting the motor or performing maintenance. Ensure the belt guard is always in place during operation.
Note: This product is the sweep assembly itself. An electric motor and appropriate electrical controls are required for operation. Always refer to the official Haven Industries Bin Sweeps Manual for detailed installation, operation, and safety guidelines.
