Winegrowers Supplies - Juice collection and pumping equipment
Collection bins for mash, pommace or juice
A ready assembled unit with 100 litre tank, fitted with a full/empty detector float-switch controlling a centrifugal pump mounted on a trolley, £465.
Especially for use with belt presses but also other types of press.
The juice collection tank is placed under the outlet of the press. It is food-grade white plastic, 60 cm x 50 cm x 45 cm high.
There is a bulkhead fitting with connector to DN25 male thread. Also a DN25 female hose-tail connector to 25 mm hose.
The pump is a JIMG5, it's mounted on a trolley. It's a centrifugal type pump but from long experience it works very well with juice.
On the pump inlet is a 1" bsp male to DN25 male straight connector. Then DN25 female hose-tail connector to 25 mm hose.
On the pump outet is a 1" bsp male with 90° bend then Non-return valve and adaptor to DN25 male.
A DN25 female hose-tail connector to 25 mm hose is then needed but this is extra cost.
Probably also needed is a hose-tail connector to connect to the receiving tank, that fitting depends on the tank, so is an extra item.
The 25 mm hose is extra, also 4 x hose-clips will be needed. You need about 1 metre of hose between tank and pump, then enough length to go to the receiving tank.
A stainless steel juice collection unit with strainer and float-switches: £924
The control box is connected to float-switches inside the trough. The controller has a 230 Volt socket for a pump to be plugged into. A pump is not included.It works well with a centrifugal pump (JIMG-5), with a non-return valve installed in the hose when connected to a tank inlet.
The unit has a DIN25 male thread on the juice outlet.
There is a coarse stainless steel grating inside the unit, which is removable for cleaning. This allows juice through but not large particles.
A fine cloth could be laid inside, in order to have a finer filtration.
