Vortex<\/h1>

Disinfection<\/h2>

Bacteria reduction system for vegetable, salad, and fruit products. The Vortex ensures a defined retention time of the products in the wash water, during which the product is completely surrounded by water. As a result, washing additives reliably ensure reduction in bacteria load of the products.

up to 3,500 kg (7,716 lb)\/h (with a retention time of 120 seconds) Max. capacity\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Germ reduction due to a guaranteed retention time and complete rinsing of the product<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The Vortex system disinfects cut or whole products such as whole carrots or even cut salad mixes with high capacity. For this purpose, a washing additive is used. In order for the additive to reliably achieve germ reduction on the products, the Vortex ensures complete rinsing of the products for a defined time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The products are flushed through the pipe system, which can be individually designed to meet customer requirements. The products are gently transported through the pipe system by the submergence channel without an active pump; the laminar water flow here is ensured by adjustable pumps.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The combination of the Vortex with a GEWA washing machine enables an optimal washing result as the upstream GEWA ensures the removal of dirt and insects, and the downstream Vortex ensures treatment with a washing additive. The Vortex can also be optimally integrated into a continuous line setup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Vortex processes cut lettuce, for example, with a retention time of 120 seconds and a capacity of up to 3,500 kg (7,716 lb) per hour. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
