IWM SAN100 Sanitiser tunnel

• Sanitising trays, crates, and other containers in food production lines.
• Disinfecting packaging materials prior to filling.
• Ensuring hygiene standards for reusable equipment in high-care food environments.
• Processing items requiring a final sanitisation step before further handling or storage.

Typical throughput

For this class of equipment, throughput can vary significantly based on item size and dwell time, commonly ranging from 100 to 500 items per hour.

Power supply

Units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with varying power consumption depending on pump and heater configurations.

Construction material

Sanitiser tunnels are almost exclusively constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Operating temperature

Sanitisation can occur at ambient or elevated temperatures, depending on the chemical used; heating elements are commonly found for enhanced efficacy.

Chemical dosing

Most units are designed for integration with external chemical dosing systems to ensure accurate sanitiser concentration.

Footprint

The overall footprint will be larger than the specified aperture and belt dimensions, typically requiring additional space for access and utilities.

• What items can typically be processed by a sanitiser tunnel?

  Sanitiser tunnels are generally suitable for processing a wide range of rigid items such as plastic crates, trays, bins, and some types of packaging, provided they fit within the aperture and can be conveyed.

• Is heating of the sanitising solution common?

• What maintenance is typically required for a sanitiser tunnel?

• Can different sanitising agents be used?

• Are water recycling features common?

For food processing washing and sanitizing equipment, buyers typically value durability, ease of cleaning, and compliance with hygiene standards. Industry sentiment emphasizes the importance of verifying spray patterns, material quality, and maintenance history when purchasing used units. Stainless steel construction and reliable pump performance are considered key strengths. Buyers should check for corrosion, seal condition, and documentation of regular servicing to ensure food safety compliance.
