Design specifications Component and Operation overview including power, portability, facility requirements, preventative maintenance and user training requirements

The Alvan Blanch Oil Expeller Press is designed such that the seed is placed under increasing pressure as it is conveyed through a tapered chamber. Because of the high level of compression (and pressure generated temperature) oil is expelled through a set of rings. The residual solid matter is conveyed to the end of the press and falls away as thin strips of ‘oilcake’.

• Compresses oilseed drape at 150 – 400 kg/hr

• No switches or basic control panel

• Dimensions (LxWxH) (cm): 155 x 112 x 180

• XP100E model has a 9.2 kWh motor. ^{Interview with representative}

Safety Potential hazards / risks related to operation of this product

Unknown

Complementary technical systems Performance of this product is improved with another technology (eg. Cookstoves and Wind-blocking skirts)

If a generator is used to power the press – the press should be fitted with a speed controller. A voltage monitoring system is needed to avoid damage to the inverter.

The XP100E gives crude oil. In order to get processed oil, you would need a filter press, pump, settling tanks, etc.

Additional attachments include: Temperature Adjustment Chamber, Oil Pump, Feed Hopper, Proximity Sensor, MPC Pre-Cleaner, MPC Support Frame, IBC Tank, Primary Settling Tank ^{Interview with representative}
