Product Overview

Final rinsing needs a defined station. If every operator uses a hose differently, coverage and water consumption soon drift. This washer puts the carcass inside a cabinet, senses its arrival and applies the same timed spray on each pass. It is meant to lift away loose material before weighing or chilling. Good dressing practice still comes first; a rinse cannot turn a poorly handled carcass into an acceptable one.

For model HT‑S218‑II, the source lists a 2.2 kW pump package and stainless water lines inside a 304 stainless housing. The nominal flow is 2 m³/h, while the exposure time can be adjusted at the control. HT quotes an upper line rate of 400 animals per hour. Before accepting that figure, the buyer should check nozzle positions, available water pressure, rail speed and drain capacity with its own carcass range. Too much pressure or a badly aimed jet can spread droplets rather than improve the finish.

Working Principle

The trolley brings a dressed carcass through the cabinet entrance. As it crosses the sensing point, the control begins the programmed wash window. Water reaches the surface from the arranged nozzle banks, and the cabinet walls keep most of the splash over the drain. Spraying ends at the timer setting, then the rail carries the carcass into a short drip zone before the scale or chiller. At start‑up, the crew checks the pattern with water only and clears any nozzle that throws an uneven fan. Strainers, cabinet corners and the drain are cleaned at the end of the run.





Main Features

  • Spray begins only when the incoming carcass reaches the sensor

  • Wash duration can be adjusted at the control

  • 304 stainless cabinet around the wet station

  • Reference water flow of 2 m³ per hour

  • 2.2 kW pump package with stainless distribution lines

  • Listed line‑rate ceiling of 400 head per hour

Application

The washer is normally placed after final trimming and before the carcass scale or chilling rail. It serves sheep and goat lines where a standardized rinse is part of the approved process. The site must supply potable‑process water as required, drainage sized for peak discharge, splash‑resistant electrics, rail guides and enough downstream distance for drip control. Local rules determine whether washing is routine or only a corrective step.

Reference Application Case

Reference application: a 300‑head‑per‑hour sheep line installs the washer immediately before its overhead rail scale

A photo‑eye detects the trolley, and the control applies a short timed spray while the carcass passes through the enclosure. Operators verify coverage with a daily test and remove blocked nozzles for cleaning. A drip section prevents excess water from affecting the scale. The processor's food‑safety team validates water quality, pressure and inspection criteria before routine use. This is a model workflow, not a named customer case.

Advantages

  • 1. Provides consistent spray timing instead of fully manual hose washing

  • 2. Sensor control limits spraying when no carcass is present

  • 3. Enclosure helps contain splash in one drainable area

  • 4. Stainless shell and pipework suit a wet processing zone

  • 5. Adjustable cycle can be matched to line speed and carcass presentation
