The ROSS Model 42N-18SS is crafted from type 316 stainless steel with interior surfaces polished to a150-grit finish for easy cleaning. With a maximum working capacity of 18 cu.ft., the pictured blender is directly driven by a 10 HP gear motor for processing materials with a bulk density of up to 60 lbs/cu.ft.
The agitator is a solid double ribbon design, ideal for center discharge, with internal flanges welded to shaft stub ends and a heavy-duty anti-friction bearing on the non-driven end. A two-piece safety grating with ½" diameter perforations ensure safe operation while the split foldingcovers are open, per the company.
A spray bar with fan type spray nozzles is installed on the trough via sanitary tri-clamp connections for liquid additions. The blender is operated from a 4” color touchscreen that includes a cycle timer. The finished product is discharged through a pneumatically-operated 4′′ dust-tight knife gate valve.
