JenActUV UVTCONV500 UV Torpedo conveyor

• Surface disinfection of packaged or unpackaged food products prior to further processing or packaging.
• Reduction of microbial load on produce, baked goods, or confectionery items.
• Sterilisation of small components or containers in a controlled environment.
• Integration into existing production lines requiring a critical control point for pathogen reduction.
• Post-wash disinfection for fruits and vegetables to extend shelf life.

Typical throughput

Variable, dependent on product size, UV dose requirements, and belt speed settings.

Power supply

Commonly single-phase (1Ph) for units of this size, though three-phase options exist for larger systems.

Construction material

Typically stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316 grade) for hygiene and corrosion resistance in food environments.

UV lamp type

Usually low-pressure mercury vapour lamps, providing germicidal UV-C at 254nm.

Belt type

Commonly a stainless steel wire mesh belt, suitable for UV penetration and product stability.

Control system

Typically features an HMI touchscreen for setting belt speed, lamp intensity, and monitoring.

• What products are suitable for UV torpedo conveyors?

  These conveyors are suitable for a wide range of products that can be exposed to UV light, including fruits, vegetables, baked goods, confectionery, and packaged items. The dual-sided UV exposure ensures comprehensive disinfection.

• How effective is UV disinfection for food products?

• What maintenance is typically required for a UV conveyor?

• Can this equipment be integrated into an existing production line?

• Are there any safety considerations when operating UV equipment?

Buyers typically value conveyor systems for their reliability and longevity when well-maintained. Key considerations when purchasing used units include belt condition, motor functionality, frame integrity, and available spare parts. Industry sentiment emphasises the importance of verifying operational history and cleanliness standards, particularly for food handling applications. Common strengths include robust construction, relatively straightforward maintenance requirements, and cost savings versus new equipment. Reputable manufacturers' models tend to hold their value well and integrate readily into existing production lines.
