Centrifuge SC/NextGen
The buffer conveyor is filled during the drying cycle so as to not interrupt the continuous product flow. The configuration of the Sormac centrifuge minimizes the probability of the produce being damaged.
The SC/NextGen is characterized by an exceptionally open design with optimal accessibility for cleaning and maintenance. Energy savings of approximately 20% are achieved by the combination of more efficient motors and a frequency inverter with an energy recovery system.
Product specification
Cut hard leafy vegetables, soft lettuces, and various cut vegetables. Depending on specific density, there may be restrictions as regards produce dimensions.
Capacity
The capacity of the centrifuge depends on the product, the entry moisture level, and the desired final moisture level. Capacities of up to 5,100 lbs per hour are feasible.
Features
Patented drum suspensionThe drum hangs freely in conveyors and is positioned magnetically: Fewer moving and wearing parts and high cycle efficiency (quick filling and unloading). |
