What types of products can this injector handle?

This type of injector is suitable for both bone-in and boneless products, commonly used for red meat, poultry, and fish.

How does the variable speed feature benefit production?

Variable speed for the drive and injection head allows operators to optimise the injection process for different product types and desired brine uptake, enhancing flexibility and product quality.

What is the purpose of the rotary filter?

The rotary filter helps to remove particulates from the brine solution, preventing needle blockages and ensuring consistent injection quality, as well as protecting the pump.

Is this unit suitable for high-viscosity marinades?

While designed for brine, the suitability for high-viscosity marinades depends on the specific pump and needle configuration. Buyers should confirm this with the seller for this particular unit.

What are the typical hygiene considerations for this equipment?

Hygiene is critical; units typically feature designs for easy cleaning, including removable components and stainless steel construction to meet food safety standards.
