Available Options

•  Green berry skim-out conveyor: removes green and unripe berries from the water tank eliminating manual removal

Features

• The unique V-shaped design provides easy cleanup, flushing out the debris during drain-out

• The low profile keeps the infeed and discharge heights at a comfortable level

• Berry conveyor dumps excess debris outside of the tank to prevent debris from returning

• Stainless steel design

Washing and removing debris from berries is an essential part to any berry processing line, which is exactly what LPM’s water tank accomplishes. What sets LPM’s water tank apart from the competition is its unique all-stainless design, which eases cleaning and reduces microbial build up.
 

How it Works

The tank is filled with chlorinated (or other sanitizer) water. Berries enter the tank at the infeed end. There is a continuous moving mesh conveyor under the water that carries ripe berries that sink toward the discharge end. Small debris that comes of the berries settles through the mesh belt and is retained in the bottom of the tank. Green or unripe berries rise to the surface of the water. These berries are not allowed to discharge onto the conveyor and exit the tank with the ripe berries.
