The advantages of the live bird crate washer

Our ELB crate washers are equipped with a wash tunnel with wing doors. If a door is opened during cleaning, the installation stops immediately. The crates are transported through the system by a plastic transport chain including frequency controller. The rinse arches are fitted with a large number of stainless steel nozzles. Each wash tank is equipped with dosing pumps and a hot water coil.

The standard operation of an ELB crate washer

In the pre-wash zone, the crates are cleaned and most of the dirt is removed. The nozzles are supplied with water by a powerful, low-energy pump. The main wash tank is filled via its own filling connection, which is fitted with level sensors.

The rest of the dirt is removed in main wash zone I (model ELB-V7500 onwards) and/or main wash zone II (only on the ELB-12500 and ELB-V15000). The nozzles are supplied with water by a powerful, low-energy pump. The main wash tank is filled via its own filling connection, which is fitted with level sensors. 

The crates are rinsed off with clean water in the rinsing zone. The rinse arch is sensor-operated. If no crates are detected, the water supply is shut off.


Poultry crate washers are durable and innovative

Elpress not only offers cleverly designed crate washers, but also likes to collaborate with you to make your washing processes simpler and more efficient. Our certified crate washers are sustainable and energy-efficient, helping to reduce costs. Water and energy are used carefully without compromising on cleaning quality. This is achieved through:

  • Reusing water by recirculating the washing water.
  • An intelligent water management system that prevents waste.
  • Steam extraction and heat recovery to minimise energy loss.
  • Insulated walls to limit heat loss.
