Stainless steel food dehydrator SBX Master™Preconditioner

The SBX Master™Preconditioner mixes, heats and hydrates ingredients for processing in a Baker Perkins SBX Master™ Extruder. Cooking times and mechanical shear energy in the extruder are reduced, which widens the range of products that can be made on the extruder and maximizes both output and quality. Hygienic design and a wash-in-place spray bar reduce cleaning and changeover times. Increased Process Capability High-speed mixing and hydration take place in separate chambers, enabling the time and intensity of each to be controlled independently. The high-intensity mixing aerates the product which assists rapid hydration, while multiple feed ports give the flexibility to add ingredients at various points. Improved Product Quality Pelletized and half-products are cooked more quickly, allowing increased cooling time and preventing unwanted expansion, while the texture of protein-based products is improved by reduced mechanical shear energy. Materials of construction Product contact parts – 316 Stainless Steel Non contact part – 304 Stainless Steel Range 280 - for use with SBX Master™ 50 - 65 800 - for use with SBX Master™ 80-100 1210 - for use with SBX Master™ 125 Drives High efficiency direct drive motors sealed to IP66 for wash-down protection. Keyless shaft for easy maintenance. Wash Bar Replaces process insert when required for automatic pre-wash cycle (lid closed) prior to manual cleaning. Includes shaft rotation / reversing and dwell phases. Transfer Chute Open transfer chute is easy to clean and prevents aeration of the product to maintain bulk density.
