Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment varies significantly based on product characteristics and mesh size, but typically ranges from 100 kg/hr to over 1000 kg/hr for dry products.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, drawing between 0.5 kW and 2.2 kW.

Mesh diameter

This unit features a 500mm diameter mesh, which is a common size for batch or medium-scale continuous processing.

Construction material

For food processing applications, these sieves are typically constructed from 304 or 316 grade stainless steel for contact parts, ensuring hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Mobility

The 'mobile' designation indicates it is likely fitted with castors, allowing for flexible placement within a facility.

Discharge type

A side chute discharge is common for allowing screened material to exit the sieve into a collection bin or subsequent process.

Footprint

For a 500mm diameter unit, the typical footprint is approximately 700mm x 700mm, with a height of around 1000mm to 1500mm depending on the frame and discharge height.
