- Typical capacity
- Throughput for this class of equipment typically ranges from 100 to 500 items per hour, depending on item size and conveyor speed.
- Power supply
- Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz.
- Construction material
- Food processing sanitiser tunnels are almost exclusively constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and durability.
- Water consumption
- Water usage varies significantly with nozzle configuration and operational cycles, but units typically incorporate recirculation systems to minimise consumption.
- Heating options
- Many sanitiser tunnels feature options for heating the wash solution, commonly via electric elements or steam injection, to enhance cleaning efficacy.
- Control system
- Typically, these machines are equipped with a basic control panel for conveyor speed, temperature, and pump operation, often with variable speed drives.
