FOODWASTE
DISPOSERS

A SIZE TO SOLVE ANY
FOODWASTE PROBLEM…

A disposer installed at each work
station, in addition to the soiled
dish table unit, provides the maxi­mum of convenience and
sanitation. Foodwaste is ground
and flushed through the drain lines
instead of accumulating… elimi­nates handling and storage of filled
garbage containers.

BLOCKS can be indexed for new cutting edges or replaced
through throat of disposer.

2. BREAKER BLADE speeds grinding, prevents objects
from riding at center of flywheel.

teeth to assure that particles are cut to proper size before
passing to drain line. STATIONARY SHREDDER RING is
cast Ni-Hard, has a minimum of 4 machine ground primary
action breaker bars and a minimum of 40 secondary action
grinding teeth.

4. Heavy duty face type WATER SEAL consists of a sin­tered bronze mating ring and a spring loaded carbon ring
insert in a chemical resistant rubber bellows. Mating sur­faces are protected by being recessed into the flywheel.

reduce operating sound level.

6. Should moisture pass seal, a FLINGER, and weep hole
are provided to insure immediate removal. A lip type OIL

Group 2 or 3. Increases life and efficiency of grinding
elements by dispersing the wear factor. Will reverse unit,
freeing it up in case a jamming situation occurs.

large 7 inch throat opening diameter. Cones of hydraformed
stainless steel, 18 inch bowl diameter is standard; 15 inch is
