Trifisk / Pisces - Pisces Automatic Fish Descaler - Perch

• Used in fish processing plants for high-volume descaling of various fish species.
• Integrated into production lines for preparing fish for filleting, smoking, or further processing.
• Suitable for seafood distributors and wholesalers requiring consistent product quality.
• Utilised by large restaurants and catering services that process fresh fish in-house.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput commonly ranges from 500 kg/hour to over 2,000 kg/hour, depending on fish size and model specifics.

Power supply

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

Construction material

Most industrial fish descalers are constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., AISI 304 or 316) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Water consumption

Descaling machines commonly use a continuous water spray for cleaning and scale removal, with consumption rates varying based on design and operation.

Suitable fish sizes

This type of machine is generally designed to handle a range of fish sizes, with specific models optimised for smaller fish like perch or larger species.

Footprint

The footprint for automatic descalers typically ranges from 1.5m to 3m in length and 0.8m to 1.5m in width, requiring adequate space for operation and maintenance.
