FEATURES:

• 10 7/8 inch (275mm) high by 19 11/16 inch (500mm) wide net USABLE aperture opening with the conveyor belt in place.
  
  
• The thru-conveyor is complete with a belt-stop alarm reject configuration, and a variable frequency speed control for the 110 volt single phase drive, adjustable from 16 to 75 feet per minute (approximately 5 to 23 meters per minute) belt speed.
  
  
• A food grade metal detector specifically built for food processing and other industrial production line metal detection applications. All food grade / USDA sanitary hose-wash-down stainless steel construction (IP-67/NEMA 6 search head enclosure, IP-65/Nema 4,4x,6,12 & 13 control enclosure).
  
  
• The search head is complete with integral touchpad operator controls with a 5.4 inch color screen, including RS-232 and RS-485 serial data acquisition ports, and ethernet data interface, in a stainless steel enclosure. Optional data logging software is available for tracking and reporting for HACCP and other quality assurance and certification regimes.
  
  
• 110 volt single phase (standard household current) electrical input.
  
  
• FOUR FREQUENCY LEVELS (35kHz, 75kHz, 150kHz, and 300kHz), allowing for optimal sensitivity across an exceptionally wide range of products / product types (wet, dry, salty, meat, fruits, vegetables, fresh, frozen, hot, cold, etc.) allowing for maximum versatility with the widest range of products. The optimal frequency is automatically set by the system in "product learn" mode to maximize sensitivity / minimize false rejects with your specific product.
  
  
• Sensitivity varies depending on product run, and frequency setting (determined by product characteristics), especially where wet, salty, or acidic products that are electrically conductive introduce "product effect" into the equation, however the manufacturer rates dry sensitivity for this head, with no product in the aperture, at a maximum sensitivity of 1.7mm ferrous, 2.3mm non ferrous, and 2.7mm stainless steel at 300 kHz.
  
  
• Quick teach feature learns new products in 4 to 7 passes.
  
  
• The control unit allows for 120 product presets, where product presets save the frequency setting with the other tuning data.

Alard Model PWS4 FOUR ROLL
WASHER / SCRUBBER / PEELER,
for fruits and vegetables,
stainless steel, continuous,
in-stock NEW...

A continuous four roll abrasive peeler, brush washer, scrubber which can be fitted with any combination of brushes and/or abrasive rolls for peeling, brush washing, scrubbing, or finishing (e.g. in combination with another peeler or steam peeler) of fruits and vegetables such as potatoes, beets, carrots, onions, cucumbers, pickles, apples, oranges and others.

OPERATION:

Raw product is continuously fed to the peeling chamber and subjected to the spinning rolls (abrasive and / or brush rollers as the case may be). It is important that a sufficient amount of product be kept in the peeling chamber during operation for best results. Lubricating and rinsing action are provided in the chamber by overhead sprays, while the flow of product through the machine is regulated both by a weighted discharge door, and the inclination of the machine.

FEATURES:

• 15 inch by 27 inch top hopper inlet opening in the hinged stainless steel cover at 57 inch infeed height.
  
  
• Lubricating and rinsing action are provided in the chamber via a stainless steel water spray pipe header with spray nozzles.
  
  
• Peeled product discharges through a stainless steel discharge flapper-gate which is adjustable so product can be subjected to a longer or shorter peeler /washing exposure; --at a 39 inch discharge height.
  
• Water, peels and debris drop to a full length stainless steel water catch pan with a 6 inch by 6 inch center bottom outlet.
  
  
• Throughput capacities very significantly depending on product, application (peeling, washing), and desired-finish, but a ton and a half per hour is a ballpark capacity for a four-roll peeling machine.
  
  
• Shows in pictures with four (4) abrasive rolls, each 6 inch diameter by 6 foot long; but can be set with any combination of abrasive or brush rolls to buyer need / specification for stronger or gentler peeler / scrubbing action.
  
  
  • Brushes come in many materials and grades (e.g. for stiffness), and are available at an added cost relative to abrasive rolls. We generally stock stiff polyester brush rolls, but special orders for buyers with particular grit and/or brush specifications can be expected to require some lead time for acquisition. Call 315-589-4511 to discuss your food process fruit and vegetable peeling, washing, scrubbing application(s).
    
    
• The abrasive and / or  brush rolls are mounted parallel (in-line) with product flow.
  
  
• Complete with central lubrication cluster for ease of maintenance.
  
  
• Chain / sprocket drive powered by a 3 HP 208 / 230 / 460 volt 3 phase 60 cycle constant speed motor.
  
  
• We recommend an optional "soft start" variable speed controller.
  
  
• Made in the USA.
  
  

As of this writing, we have this make / model four-roll abrasive peeling machine and / or brush washer in stock new, available for immediate shipment.
