1. Q: Can it dry medicinal herbs and fresh flowers, or only fruits and vegetables?
A: In addition to fruits and vegetables, it can dry medicinal herbs (such as goji berries and honeysuckle), fresh flowers (such as roses and osmanthus), and mushrooms. Appropriate parameters can be set according to the characteristics of the medicinal herbs and fresh flowers.
2. Q: How many kilograms can it dry at a time? How long does it take to dry a batch?
A: Different models have different capacities. Small machines dry 50-200 kilograms per batch, medium machines 200-500 kilograms, and large machines over 500 kilograms. Choose according to your needs. Drying time depends on the type of fruit and vegetable and its moisture content: leafy vegetables 2-4 hours, berries 4-6 hours, and root vegetables 6-10 hours. The equipment will automatically monitor the moisture content and stop automatically when the target moisture content is reached.
3. Q: Does this dryer consume a lot of electricity? How much money can it save compared to natural air drying?
A: It is highly energy-efficient, with a built-in waste heat recovery system that recycles the heat from exhaust gases, reducing energy consumption by more than 30% compared to traditional dryers. Natural air drying is greatly affected by weather, resulting in a loss rate of 15%-20%, while the equipment's loss rate is less than 3%.
4. Q: Will dirt accumulate inside the equipment after prolonged use? How do I clean and maintain it?
A: The machine body is made of food-grade 304 stainless steel, with a smooth surface that does not easily accumulate dirt, making cleaning very convenient. After each drying cycle, once the equipment has cooled down, simply wipe the inner walls of the machine body and the mesh frame with a damp cloth; perform a deep cleaning once a week by removing the mesh frame and rinsing it with clean water, and simply flushing the inside of the machine body with a high-pressure water gun. No complex parts need to be disassembled.
