Bubble Flow Washer BFW-500

Bubble Flow Washer BFW-500

The BFW-500 combines a strong water current with air bubbles to wash leafy greens, cut vegetables and fruit gently and continuously. The agitation speeds up the separation of soil and debris from the product without bruising or breaking it.

A touch-screen HMI and PLC control automatic water filling, draining, temperature control and sanitizing, so the washer runs with minimal operator attention. A powered mesh belt discharges the product, while an air knife and suction knife release it from the belt and remove surface water before the next step.
