2.HONEY EXTRACTOR MANUAL
2.1 General principles for preparing
the honey extractor for operation
1. Place the honey extractor in the place
specified for the purpose and kept in order
and cleanliness.
2. Fix the honey extractor to the ground in order
to avoid its displacement during spinning.
2.2. Operating principles
1.Honey extractor is intended to centrifuge the
honey from the frames.
2. Prior to first extraction and after the honey
harvesting, the honey extractor must be washed
thoroughly in line with the guidelines contained in
the chapter Honey extractor maintenance.
3. Previously prepared frames must be placed
inside the basket, with special attention paid to
their arrangement. Erroneous frame arrangement
may bring about the damages which are not
subject to guarantee terms!
4. Prior to the honey extractor activation, one
must:
Put the plug into the socket, switch the
controlling activation button on the controlling
cabinet from "0" to "1" position.
5. The first phase of extraction shall be performed
slowly in order to prevent the honeycombs from
breaking out. Special attention must be paid to the
so called "young frames".
6. Rotations are regulated by a potentiometer.
NOTE!!! Frames may be rearranged only when
the honey extractor basket has come to a
complete hold!
9. Once the basket has stopped, reverse the
frames by 180 degrees and centrifuge the other
side of the honeycomb. The frames are to be
centrifuged in two stages, first with lower rotations
on both sides of the honeycomb. Subsequently,
with higher rotations of the basket on both sides of
the honeycomb again.
10. The spinning basket should not be blocked by
the honey accumulating inside the drum. If that is
the case, the honey extractor must be stopped in
order to avoid any damage. Once the honey has
drained to the containers, spinning may be
restarted.
11. A container intended for the honey shall be
placed under the drain valve.
While spinning the drain valve should be opened
in order for the honey to flow freely.
3. Characteristics for the honey
extractors – Minima series.
Diagonal, 3-4-honeycomb honey extractor can be
used in small apiaries as well as by the apiarists
treating beekeeping as a hobby. Its distinguishing
features include compact dimensions and easy
handling. Designing solutions applied make it
possible to centrifuge even the densest honey .
The conical shape of the extractor's bottom allows
for the honey do drain freely. Honey extractors are
packed in carton boxes, for self-assembling.
3.1. Technical parameters of electric
honey extractor
Drum
of the honey extractor is made of stainless
and acid-resistant steel plate, thickness 0.6 mm.
The proper arrangement of the rabbets reinforces
the drum construction even more.
Basket design
Diagonal basket made of stainless and acid-
resistant rods, thickness 2 and 5 mm, arranged in
the way protecting the frames from honeycombs
breaking out during spinning. Meshing size 20x20
mm. The basket placed on the sliding-retaining
sleeve.
Electric drive
The honey extractors are supplied by the mains
voltage 230V. The rotation potentiometer has
been applied as well. The engine with
transmission is mounted on the upper beam
Lid
Transparent lid made of metaplex, thickness 3
mm, protects a user against the hazard of coming
into contact with a spinning basket and getting
dirty.
Drain valve
Made of plastic, 6/4"
• Drum height (without the drive)-610
