Flow separator

The Cabinplant flow separator is designed to separate light particles from heavier particles, e.g. leaves, sticks etc. from fruit and vegetables or shells from mechanically peeled cold water shrimp. The principle is to create an airflow, which is powerful enough to blow the light particles away and keep the heavier parts in the main flow.

Capacities

• Vegetables - from 4 t/h to 30 t/h (based on peas)
• Cold water shrimp - up to 1600 kg/h

The flow separator can be equipped with a filterbelt, which replaces the perforated holes in the cabinet. The filter belt is cleaned continuously during production and the performance of the machine is maintained due to an unhampered air flow. At the same time the running time between cleanings is also extended. We recommend this solution for big capacities of vegetables e.g. from 10 t/h and always for cold water shrimp.

The flow separator for vegetables is equipped with:

• Axial fan
• Safety guard in front of the fan
• Air duct, to control and guide the air flow, mounted with inspection traps
• Air hood, on top of the air duct, where foreign matters are collected
• Small screw conveyor integrated in the air hood to remove foreign matters from the air hood.

The flow separator for shrimp is equipped with:

• Modular plastic belt
• Plastic sideguide
• Drip pan under belt
• Blower, diameter 800 mm, which can be raised vertically during cleaning
• Mechanical chute for pulsation of air during cleaning
• Cabinet with large inspection doors for optimal access and with vertical sides preventing shell pieces from sticking inside the cabinet
• Filter belt
• Washing nozzles for filter belt incl. magnet valve.
