Mussel cleaning machine FIMAR LCN/18M

This appliance operates by agitating the mussels within a drum. Water jets assist in flushing away debris, while a rotating abrasive disc works to remove mud and other residues from the shells. The process is controlled by a timer, allowing for precise washing durations.

To use the mussel washer, place the mussels into the drum. The load capacity is between 10 and 18 kg per cycle. Close the transparent upper lid, which is made from food-grade polycarbonate. A security microswitch on the lid means the machine will not operate if the lid is not properly secured. Set the timer for the desired washing duration, from 0 to 4 minutes. The machine then begins the washing cycle, utilising an automatic water jet and the removable abrasive brush disc to clean the mussels. Once the cycle is complete, a dedicated button is used to unload the cleaned product.

The construction features a stainless steel body for durability and hygiene. The transparent upper lid allows for visual monitoring of the washing process.

Controls include a timer that can be set between 0 and 4 minutes, and a button for unloading the product.

The 0.9 kW power rating indicates the electrical load the appliance will place on the supply. The weight of 40 kg means the unit is relatively stable during operation. The dimensions of 830 mm in length, 530 mm in width, and 950 mm in height define the footprint and space requirements for installation.

Cleaning involves the automatic water jet and the removable brush disc. The stainless steel body and polycarbonate lid can be wiped down.
