Sammic PI-30 - Stainless Steel Potato Peeler, 30kg Load, 720kg/h

Common questions:

Do I need the stand?
Not necessarily. It is sold without one and is already 1002 mm high on its own. The optional stand lifts it to 1255 mm. Ask us if you are unsure which suits your space.

Can it run for longer than 6 minutes?
Yes. As well as the 0 to 6 minute timer, it can be set to run continuously, so you decide when each batch is done.

What is the auxiliary contact for?
It lets the peeler control an external electric valve on your water supply, on top of the electric valve already fitted to its inlet. Your plumber and electrician can tell you whether your setup needs one.
