Disinfection tray for knives

This high-quality knife disinfection basin was specially developed for the safe thermal disinfection of knives and sharpening steels in meat-processing facilities such as butcher shops. Its robust construction and hygienic design enable effective germ reduction through hot-water treatment in accordance with applicable hygiene regulations.

The knife sanitizing basin offers the following impressive features:

• Indirect four-sided heating with a constant water temperature starting at 84°C
• Tank capacity: approx. 4 liters
• Dry-run protection safeguards the heating system when the tank is empty
• Separate drain valve for safe emptying
• Holds up to 3 knives and 1 sharpening steel (removable)
• Knife guides made of blade-friendly plastic
• Housing made of 1.4301 stainless steel
• Heating elements outside the water chamber: No limescale or dirt buildup

The knife disinfection tank is made entirely of high-quality 1.4301 stainless steel, making it particularly durable, corrosion-resistant, and easy to clean. The disinfection basin is a device for hot-water disinfection that uses hot water at a temperature of at least 84°C to perform what is known as thermal disinfection. Unlike chemical disinfection, this is a proven method for reliably killing germs without chemical additives. It is used in particular in settings where the highest hygiene standards apply, such as in food-processing facilities.

The indirect heating technology, in which the heating elements are embedded between the inner tub and the outer shell, prevents direct contact with the water. This significantly extends the service life of the system and prevents the buildup of limescale or deposits on the heating components. It also makes it easier to clean the smooth inner surfaces.

To disinfect the knives, the water is kept at a constant temperature of at least 84°C. Once this temperature is reached, the previously cleaned knives can be placed in the holder up to the handle. An exposure time of at least 60 seconds ensures reliable germ reduction. The knife disinfection basin has a capacity of approximately 4 liters of water.

The basin is delivered ready to plug in. The included plastic insert holds 3 knives and 1 sharpening steel and can be easily removed for cleaning. To ensure hygienic operation, it is recommended to use at least two knives on a rotating basis at each workstation.
