Marel Carnitech Fish Salter

• Used in large-scale fish processing plants for uniform salting of various fish species.
• Applicable in facilities preparing fish for further processing such as smoking, drying, or canning.
• Utilised by seafood distributors and wholesalers requiring consistent product quality and extended shelf life.
• Integrated into production lines for cured fish products, including herring, cod, and mackerel.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput can typically range from several hundred kilograms to over a tonne of fish per hour, depending on the model and fish size.

Power supply

Commonly found on units of this type, a 3-phase industrial electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, is required.

Construction material

Units are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., AISI 304 or 316) to ensure hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Salting method

Fomaco salters commonly employ a brine injection or tumbling drum method to ensure even salt distribution.

Footprint

The footprint for a Fomaco fish salter can vary significantly, but buyers should anticipate a floor area of at least 2m x 1.5m for smaller units, extending to larger dimensions for high-capacity models.

Control system

Typically features a PLC-based control system with a user-friendly interface for setting salting parameters.
