JenActUV UVTCONV500 UV Torpedo conveyor

• Surface disinfection of packaged goods in food processing.
• Sterilisation of small components in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
• Decontamination of medical devices prior to packaging.
• Sanitisation of items in laboratory environments.
• Reduction of microbial load on products in cosmetic production.

Typical throughput

Variable, dependent on product size and required UV dose; commonly found with adjustable belt speeds to optimise exposure.

UV lamp configuration

Units of this type typically feature dual-sided UV exposure, with lamp arrays both above and below the conveyor belt for comprehensive disinfection.

Power supply

For this class of equipment, a single-phase electrical supply is common, often 230V, 50Hz in the UK.

Construction material

Stainless steel construction is standard for hygiene-critical applications, ensuring durability and ease of cleaning.

Belt type

A stainless steel wire mesh belt is typically used, allowing for UV penetration from below and suitable for various product types.

Control interface

Modern units commonly incorporate HMI touchscreen controls for intuitive operation and parameter adjustment.

Maintenance requirements

Routine maintenance typically involves periodic cleaning of UV lamps and reflectors, and eventual lamp replacement as UV output diminishes.

• What types of products can be disinfected using this conveyor?

  This type of UV conveyor is suitable for surface disinfection of various solid, non-liquid products that can be conveyed on a mesh belt, such as packaged foods, small components, or medical instruments.

• How effective is UV disinfection on all sides of a product?

• Are there any safety considerations when operating UV equipment?

• What is the typical lifespan of the UV lamps?

• Can the conveyor speed be adjusted?

Buyers typically value conveyor systems for their reliability and longevity when well-maintained. Key considerations when purchasing used units include belt condition, motor functionality, frame integrity, and available spare parts. Industry sentiment emphasises the importance of verifying operational history and cleanliness standards, particularly for food handling applications. Common strengths include robust construction, relatively straightforward maintenance requirements, and cost savings versus new equipment. Reputable manufacturers' models tend to hold their value well and integrate readily into existing production lines.
