• Draining excess water from blanched or cooked food products.
• Handling and conveying products while simultaneously removing surface moisture.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment typically ranges from 500 kg/hr to several tonnes/hr, depending on product density and desired dewatering efficiency.

Power supply

Units commonly found on units of this type typically require a 3-phase electrical supply, often 400V, 50Hz, with power consumption varying based on motor size.

Construction material

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

Conveyor belt type

Commonly features perforated belts or mesh belts made from stainless steel or food-grade plastic, designed for efficient water drainage.

Footprint

The footprint for this class of equipment can vary significantly, from compact units under 2 metres in length to larger systems exceeding 5 metres, depending on capacity requirements.

Water collection system

Typically includes an integrated collection tray or tank beneath the conveyor to gather drained water for disposal or recirculation.
