Construction and product duty
A wash vessel or channel, agitation system, product lift and drain section form the wet preparation module. Screens keep large debris out of recirculation paths.
- Incoming product
- Fresh whole chilies with field dirt and variable stem load.
- Discharge
- Drained pods ready for sorting; wash water is managed separately.
How to choose this machine
Size the wash duty from incoming bulk density, soil load and delicate-skin tolerance. Pod float behaviour and entanglement decide the lift and retention arrangement.
Dried pods and received fermented mash do not automatically belong in this wet route. Washing alone is not a validated microbial reduction step.
What to specify before comparing options
| Selection parameter | Information to establish |
|---|---|
| Feed basis | Fresh whole pods; variety and receiving condition |
| Hydraulic duty | Water supply, turnover and drain load |
| Discharge | Residual surface water and hand-off height |
Installation interfaces
Provide clean water, a defined overflow and drain capacity, service access and a drained discharge to inspection.
Product trial
Observe damage, carryover water, debris removal and loss of usable pods with representative deliveries.
