Vegetable washing machine
The Sormac leafy vegetable washer is suitable for both sliced and diced leaf as well as vegetables. This washer is also suitable for baby leaf.
Operating principle
The Sormac vegetable washer type GWM is designed for both sliced and diced leaf and vegetables.
Inside the wash tank the product is intensely washed and due to the turbulent water flow mixed and transported along the length of the wash tank. The product is over-flumed out of the wash tank onto the vibratory de-watering screen (1.000 mm length) (39"), where it is sprayed off with fresh water. It is gently transported forward removing the excess water.
All water passing through the de-watering screen is cleaned through a static sieve, mounted on top of the water holding tank directly below the vibratory screen. The filtered water is then re-circulated around the wash.
The electrical panel has switches for the water pump as well as the vibratory screen. There are valves mounted in the pipe-work from the pumps. These can adjust the flow through the system dependent on products being washed and retention time required. The water level is automatically controlled by sensors.
The GWM washer is completely built in stainless steel and piping is seam welded. Where applicable, connected with hygienic fittings.
