Sanitary drum motor eliminates areas that can harbor bacteria

Featuring a continuous profile, the Van der Graaf SSV sanitary drum motor features a motor, gearbox and all the moving external components of a conventional drive housed inside the hermetically sealed drum. The belt profile is machined directly onto the drum to drive modular, wire belt and monolithic thermoplastic conveyor belts without the use of sprockets. The all-316 stainless-steel motor has an IP69K sealing system that withstands washdown pressures up to 3,000 psi.
