In-Sink-Erator Model 56

The device with the Model 56 index from the famous American manufacturer of waste shredders In-Sink-Erator is included in the cohort of representatives of the economy class. Nevertheless, its basic functionality is quite enough for the effective grinding of food residues and their subsequent discharge into the sewer.

Basic parameters

At its core, the grinder is an improved version of the In-Sink-Erator Model 45 with slight differences in terms of design. One of these is the presence in the delivery set of a built-in pneumatic button with two external linings (chrome or stainless steel). Otherwise, the device has almost identical characteristics with its younger brother: the base power is at the level of 0.55 hp. and average shaft speed (1425 rpm).

Camera

There are no cutting elements in the chopper design, and grinding of waste is carried out by rotating a metal disk and exposing food particles to centrifugal force, which presses them against the walls of the inner chamber. Its volume is only a little less than 1 liter and is 980 mL. In more understandable words, this tank capacity ensures comfortable use of the device by a family of 3-4 people.

grinding

The grinder handles with the processing of meat and fish bones, cartilage, fibrous products, vegetable and fruit peels, egg shells and other food waste. But it is desirable to exclude the ingress of hair, wool, glass, plastic or metal into it — due to the lack of a reverse mechanism, the dispenser may lose its performance due to them.

Reliability

Installation of the device can be carried out by anyone who has the slightest skills in handling the tool. A separate line pleases that the process of grinding waste is accompanied by a low noise level. A number of advantages of the model are complemented by a 3-year warranty from the manufacturer. However, with careful handling, you won’t have to give the dispenser to the service centre at all — its body and internal mechanisms are distinguished by a high level of reliability.
