Air agitation inside the washing bath

The illustrated assembly combines a stainless washing vessel with an external air blower and a lifting belt. Air agitation moves water around the fruit surface. Water supply, overflow and a managed drain keep collected soil from circulating indefinitely; final water quality and replacement belong to the plant cleaning plan.

Lifting and draining in the same assembly

Transverse flights support fruit on the incline while the belt moves it to the upper discharge. The visible head drive, side guarding and access platform are part of this arrangement. Match the discharge height to the next hopper and provide a controlled drain path beneath the incline. Avoid a long free fall that bruises prepared berries.

Match the bath to the received fruit

Fresh berries, thawed fruit and rehydrated berries can tolerate different agitation and residence conditions. A soft or damaged batch should not be assigned the same washing duty without a handling assessment. This illustrated unit uses an agitated bath rather than a brush bed.

Cleaning, access and maintenance

Drain the bath and remove trapped plant matter from low points, belt flights and return sections. Isolate air and belt drives before opening guards. Check belt tracking and tension, accessible bearings and the head transfer area. Keep washdown water away from unprotected electrical components.

YOUR QUESTIONS

Questions buyers ask about this machine

Is this a brush washer?

No. The available assembly uses an air-agitated immersion bath and a flighted inclined belt. Brush washing is a different mechanical arrangement and is not represented by this equipment.

Can it be used for dried berries?

Dried berries need a separately assessed rehydration step before washing or pulping. The bath is not a rehydration system, and its water balance must be designed for the actual intake.

What determines the discharge height?

The next hopper or conveyor, access platform, drain route and available headroom determine the elevation. The selected unit must be confirmed against those site dimensions.
