Systems

  • We select the appropriate combination of pumps, filters and dosing equipment for each site.
  • We have special expertise with chilled and hot water systems.
  • Poor quality water supplies coming from dams or rivers can be treated to potable water standard.

Chemicals

  • Disinfection is necessary to extend shelf life and maintain water quality.
  • Ym-Fab have a range of chemicals to suit every situation in pre harvest, post harvest and semi processed fruit and vegetable production.
  • Effective ORP control requires a steady pH in the wash water.
  • Clobr™ and HIHO play an important role to control pH and corrosion. Clobr is a powder product which is manually dosed. HIHO is a liquid solution dosed by injection pump into the wash system.

Controllers

  • Ym-Fab control systems monitor and control all aspects of filtration and chemical dosing.
  • The addition of data logging allows continuous recording for Quality Assurance.
  • Training programs are available.

Pumps and Filters

  • Sand filters are “backwashed” to clean the bed either by manual or automatic control. Where possible a separate water service is used for backwash.
  • Insufficient backwashing is responsible for a lot of filter problems. In many cases; backwash waste can be removed and the water used again.
  • Special chemicals can be used to improve filter performance in dealing with difficult loads such as peach fluff or carrot root hairs.
  • Pumps selection for all Ym-Fab systems is based on water volume and the size of the filter.
