Why Choose Our Solar Wax Melters?
Solar wax melters are revolutionizing the way beekeepers extract and process beeswax. By utilizing solar energy, these devices offer a sustainable, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly solution. Here’s why our solar wax melters stand out:
Key Features
-
High-Strength Double-Glazed Glass: Our solar wax melters are equipped with high-strength double-glazed glass that can reach temperatures up to 120°C under direct sunlight. This ensures efficient and even melting of beeswax.
-
Stainless Steel Plate: A stainless steel plate is integrated into the design to provide uniform heat distribution, ensuring that the wax melts evenly without hotspots.
-
Durable Wax Tray: The wax tray is designed to be durable and spacious, allowing for the melting of wax from multiple hive frames simultaneously. This feature is particularly beneficial for beekeepers with larger operations.
-
Portable and Adjustable Design: Our solar wax melters are designed to be portable and adjustable, allowing you to position them for optimal sun exposure. This enhances their usability and efficiency.
How It Works
The principle behind our solar wax melters is simple yet effective. The upper part of the melter is equipped with a glass plate or double web plate to collect solar energy. Honeycombs and wax plates are either hung directly on the frame or placed individually on existing plates inside the melter. The melter is angled so that the wax flows downwards into a wax bucket, which may include a wax sieve to filter out coarse impurities during the melting process.
