Kason’s Ultra Sanitary Sifter model K30-1FT-SS is an extra low profile version of the New Jersey, US-based firm's Vibroscreen Flo-Thru design.
The new sifter employs two unbalanced-weight gyratory motors mounted on opposing exterior sidewalls of the unit, instead of one motor positioned beneath the screening chamber, significantly reducing overall height.
On-size particles pass rapidly through the 762mm diameter screen in a vertical straight-through discharge path at higher rates than circular screeners with a centrally mounted gyratory motor and horizontal discharge paths, the firm says. Oversize material exits through a side discharge spout.
All material contact surfaces, and the floor stand, are in stainless steel with continuous welds polished to cGMP, 3-A, USDA and FDA standards. Quick-release clamps allow rapid removal of screens and tool-free disassembly of frames for thorough wash down of components (including the motors), as well as rapid interior access for inspection and screen changes.
Intended to scalp oversize particles through a screen mesh as fine as 38 microns (400 mesh) from dry bulk materials or solids-laden slurries, the screener is offered in diameters from 457 to 2134mm and can be furnished with a dust-tight cover.
