Unitech - Used Unitech Sanitising Tunnel

• Food processing facilities for sanitising trays, crates, and small equipment.
• Pharmaceutical production lines for cleaning containers and components.
• Logistics and warehousing for sanitising reusable packaging.
• High-care environments requiring automated hygiene protocols.

Typical capacity

Typically designed for continuous throughput, handling hundreds of items per hour depending on item size and conveyor speed.

Power supply

Commonly requires a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with varying power consumption based on pump and heater elements.

Footprint

As described, this is a more compact model, likely requiring less floor space than larger industrial tunnels, but still needing adequate access for operation and maintenance.

Construction material

Units of this type are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) for hygiene and durability.

Sanitisation method

Typically employs high-pressure spray nozzles for chemical sanitiser application, often preceded by a wash cycle.

Water heating

Many units include integral heating elements for wash and rinse water, typically adjustable up to 85°C.

Conveyor type

Commonly features a modular plastic or stainless steel mesh conveyor belt, with adjustable speed control.

• What items can typically be processed through a sanitising tunnel?

  These tunnels are generally suitable for items that can withstand water and chemical sprays, such as plastic crates, trays, bins, and certain types of small processing equipment.

• What utilities are typically required for installation?

• Are chemical dosing systems usually integrated?

• What maintenance is typically involved with a used sanitising tunnel?

• Can the conveyor speed be adjusted?

For food processing washing and sanitizing equipment, buyers typically value durability, ease of cleaning, and compliance with hygiene standards. Industry sentiment emphasizes the importance of verifying spray patterns, material quality, and maintenance history when purchasing used units. Stainless steel construction and reliable pump performance are considered key strengths. Buyers should check for corrosion, seal condition, and documentation of regular servicing to ensure food safety compliance.
