Potato peeler „Fama Industrie“ 5 kg with high stand

5 kg potato peeler on a high stand

This machine peels up to 150 kg of potatoes an hour, taking 60–90 seconds for a 5 kg load. It suits every professional kitchen, from a café to a restaurant that peels potatoes every day.

The overall height, including the high stand, is 970 mm. Built into the stand is a pull-out waste filter drawer that catches the peelings before they reach the drain.

The body is made of AISI 304 stainless steel. A fan-cooled, Italian-made 0.37 kW asynchronous motor drives the disc through a belt.

Abrasive disc and abrasive belt

You get the potatoes peeled and rinsed: the spinning abrasive disc and the drum walls, lined with an abrasive belt, peel them, while water fed through a solenoid valve rinses the peelings away. The disc turns at 270 rpm.

You replace the abrasive belt without tools, and the abrasive parts are designed to make the machine easy to use, clean and maintain.

Digital controls

The control panel has a multifunction digital timer: you set the peeling time with the + and − buttons and read it on the display.

The lid is unbreakable clear plastic, so you can watch the potatoes being peeled. A safety microswitch stops the machine when the lid is opened.

Comparison

All four 5 kg versions peel up to 150 kg/h; they differ in height, weight, drain outlets and whether they have a waste filter drawer.

If you need more output, choose the 10 kg peeler with high stand (up to 300 kg/h).

Installation

Connect the water supply with a 3/4″ flexible hose; the water temperature should be 5–20 °C. Waste water goes to a wall drain (Ø 50 mm side outlet) or a floor drain (Ø 50 mm bottom outlet). The machine is built for a three-phase 400 V or a single-phase 230 V supply — select yours under ‘Electrical voltage’.
