- Typical capacity
- For this class of equipment, typically suited for small to medium batch processing, often handling tens to a few hundred kilograms per hour depending on product density.
- Power supply
- Commonly found on units of this type, a standard single-phase (230V, 50Hz) or three-phase (400V, 50Hz) electrical supply would be required, depending on pump motor size.
- Footprint
- As a 'Baby' model, units typically feature a compact design, often with a trough length around 2-4 metres and a total footprint suitable for smaller preparation rooms.
- Construction material
- Units of this type are almost exclusively constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and durability.
- Water consumption
- Typically designed for efficient water use, often incorporating recirculation systems, though fresh water top-up is always required for optimal hygiene.
- Suitable feed sizes
- Generally suitable for a wide range of small to medium-sized produce, from individual berries and chopped vegetables to whole root vegetables.
- Maintenance requirements
- Maintenance typically involves routine cleaning, inspection of pumps and nozzles, and periodic checks of electrical components.
