The Haith Sample Washer is designed specifically for effectively washing small batches to give a truly representative washed sample for load evaluation.

By using an intuitive energy efficient inverter with a programmable user interface, the operator can easily set the duration of the wash, which is generally a three-minute programme but can be easily adjusted. By being able to programme the wash time, multiple samples are washed for precisely the same duration so samples are fair and accurate.

Apart from loading the washer and setting the programme, the operator doesn’t need to do anything else as the process is entirely automated, with the timed wash procedure guaranteeing consistent results. The design also removes the need for the operator to open or close the door, as this is done automatically.

Haith’s Sample Washer is now loaded and unloaded from the front via an infeed chute with interlock access door, allowing it to be placed against a wall or in a corner if needed.
Up to 20kg of produce is fed into a pintle lined barrel, which is semi-submerged in water, where the crop is washed. Once complete, the sample is automatically discharged onto a sample tray via an elevator. Haith has also incorporated a drain valve and easy access to make cleaning the washer a straightforward process.

We have been keen to minimise water and energy use. The sample washer needs just 400 litres of water to operate, much of which is returned to the washer tank once the wash cycle is complete. Energy use is also low, with the Sample Washer requiring just 1.12Kw to run and a full load requiring just 3.1 amps.

Here at Haith we are proud to say that we are one of the only companies in our sector to be continuously owned by the same family since the company was founded.

It all began when, at 18 years old, Geoff Haith started carrying out repairs for local farmers leading him to realise that there was a need for a more mechanised way of washing and grading root vegetables, with his engineering ability and farming background he designed and manufactured machines for carrot, potato and beetroot handling.

The business, until recently, has been run by Geoff’s five sons and daughter, backed by a great young management team to ensure the continued success of the company, there are over 120 people employed at our factory in the UK and multiple agents around the world promoting the Haith brand globally resulting in a network of excellent installations and satisfied customers worldwide.

Haith has continued to grow in size and strength and has moved on 3 occasions to larger premises with more production area, this has led to the present ultra-modern wholly owned facility with around 6,000 m² of production space on a 6 acre site in South Yorkshire which is equipped with the most up to date CNC laser, waterjet and bending equipment.

Haith have achieved many awards for machine design over the years and are especially proud to have twice been awarded the highest accolade in the UK, The Queen’s Award for Enterprise, both times in the Innovation category, as the only company in the field to hold this prestigious award, Haith’s emphasis on continual innovation and development with a view to keeping the UK vegetable industry at the forefront of technology has been acknowledged.
