- Sludge trap

A sludge trap, also known as a sludge separator, is an important component used in various water, heating and industrial installations and in equipment such as steamers. Its main job is to separate and eliminate sediment, contaminants and solid particles from liquids, keeping systems working efficiently and minimising the risk of breakdowns and damage. Sludge traps are made of materials resistant to abrasion and corrosion, such as stainless steel, galvanised steel or tough plastics. The construction is usually based on a cylindrical or conical vessel with inlet and outlet ports and a drain valve that allows accumulated contaminants to be emptied easily. As liquid flows through, heavier particles settle at the bottom of the unit, from where they can be removed regularly. Sludge traps are widely used in heating systems, cooling installations and industrial water circuits. On farms they play a key role in potato steamers, where they effectively remove sediment, soil and water produced during boiling or steaming. Their use makes the equipment more efficient, easier to clean and more hygienic — which matters a great deal in day-to-day farm work.

Detailed description:

• The 160 L electric steamer is an efficient, dependable unit, ideal for farms and households that need an effective solution for preparing potatoes and other vegetables for feed.
• A single load of as much as 100 kg of potatoes allows a large quantity of feed to be prepared in a short time, which significantly streamlines everyday work on the farm.
• The unit is made from high-quality galvanised steel sheet, which provides resistance to corrosion and durability for many years of use. The cylindrical tank has double walls filled with insulating material, which minimises heat loss and makes the steamer energy-efficient.
• The farm steamer requires only 8.5 litres of water per steaming cycle, and thanks to its rated power of 2000 W it is exceptionally efficient and economical in use. The average cooking time is 6 hours, which ensures even cooking of potatoes and other vegetables.
• The device has been equipped with a removable lid that makes loading and emptying the boiler easier, and with a stand with trunnions allowing the tilt angle of the boiler to be adjusted up to 106°. As a result, the emptying process is quick and convenient.
• The high quality of the insulation lets the potatoes hold a temperature of around 40°C even 24 hours after cooking has finished, which is extremely practical in the work of a farm.
• The potato steamer has an automatic cut-off once a temperature of 92.5°C (+/- 1°C) is reached, which guarantees safe use and protection against overheating of the appliance.
• The versatility of this steamer allows not only potatoes but also other vegetables to be cooked, which makes it a versatile tool for holdings with a varied profile of activity.
• The Inofama electric steamer with a capacity of 160 L combines modern technology with solid workmanship. Thanks to durable materials and a well thought-out design, it meets the highest standards of functionality and reliability.
• This is an excellent choice both for small and for large holdings that value convenience, economy and efficiency in preparing feed for animals.

Frequently asked questions - FAQ

2. Can the temperature in an electric steamer be precisely adjusted for various uses on the farm?

Yes, by means of the knob. You can set both boiling water for potatoes and a low temperature (e.g. 40°C) for safely dissolving honey.

3. After several years of using the electric steamer, is it possible to buy spare parts for it, such as a heating element or a thermostat?

Yes, electric steamers are serviceable appliances. Wearing parts such as heating elements, seals or thermostats have standard parameters and are widely available on the market, which allows trouble-free replacement even after many years of use.
