Polar Systems Ltd E204

• Separating food products by size or shape in processing lines.
• Distributing bulk materials evenly to subsequent processing stages.
• Removing undersized or oversized contaminants from a product stream.
• Handling delicate items with minimal damage during sorting.
• Preparing products for packaging or further processing by ensuring uniform size.

Typical throughput

For this class of vibratory grader, throughput can typically range from 500 kg/hr to 3,000 kg/hr, depending on product density and desired separation.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a 3-phase industrial supply, typically 400V, 50Hz.

Construction material

As described, this unit is all stainless steel, which is standard for food processing equipment to ensure hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Footprint

A vibratory feeder/grader of this model's likely capacity would typically require a floor space of approximately 1.5m x 1m to 2.5m x 1.5m, plus access for maintenance.

Vibration mechanism

Commonly employs eccentric weights or electromagnetic vibrators to create directional movement for product conveyance and separation.

Maintenance requirements

Typically low, primarily involving routine cleaning, inspection of springs/mounts, and checking motor bearings.

• What kind of products can this E204 unit grade?
