Efficient and careful cleaning

The Salad washer PULSTAR feeds the product into the washing channel, where air injectors form fine bubbles that create a gentle yet powerful water movement.
The alternating air sections generate a peristaltic motion that moves the product through the washer, providing deep cleaning while preventing damage.
The PULSTAR comes in four versions, ensuring there is a fitting solution for every capacity requirement.

Peristaltic system

The product is immersed and intensively cleaned without mechanical contact. The peristaltic system also ensures a controlled residence time.

Laminar water flow

 Effectively separates the sand from the product. Due to the conical design of the Salad washer, this sand is collected and disposed of centrally.

Water bypass

Creates a higher resistance at the outlet, allowing a longer dwell time in the Salad washer.

Flycatcher (optional)

By combining the adjustable air injection and separator, insects and other small floating parts are removed from the product stream.
