Poultry / Cleaning Unit for conveyor chains

Cleaning Unit for conveyor chains

The LUBING cleaning unit was developed to clean conveyor chains for egg transport. Cleaning is carried out using ultrasound and hot water with an added cleaning agent. As such, the unit safely and reliably removes dirt from the entire conveyor chain, thus eradicating breeding grounds for bacteria and fungal infestations.

The cleaning unit can be retrofitted to an existing Conveyor-System. To do so, a permanently installed deflecting unit is required for the lower chain in the Conveyor-System. The cleaning tank can be stationary or mobile.

Cleaning procedure:

Using the Deflection unit, the lower chain is submerged into the cleaning tank. This is then filled with water. The integrated heating system is switched on and the water is heated to approx. 80°C. Cleaning agent is added to the filled tank at a ratio of 1-3%.

The cleaning procedure begins when the oscillator is switched on. The conveyor is also switched on and runs at the standard speed (7m/min) through the tank. The chain is automatically dried by the heated rods after having passed through the cleaning tank. When the cleaning procedure is complete, the conveyor chain can be removed from the tank once again, using the Deflection unit.

The cleaning fluid is then drained from the tank and the conveyor is ready for use again
