For a small-scale plant producing 1,500 Bottles Per Hour (BPH), you need a balance of power efficiency and industrial durability. Below is the detailed equipment list with estimated power consumption and technical specifications.
1. Water Treatment System (WTP)
This system purifies your raw water source. For 1,500 BPH (assuming 500ml bottles), you need a system capable of producing at least 1,000–1,500 Liters Per Hour (LPH) to account for rinsing and waste.
| Equipment | Specs / Capacity | Power Consumption |
|---|---|---|
| Raw Water Pump | Stainless Steel (SS304) | 0.75 kW |
| Multi-Media Filters | Sand & Carbon (Auto-backwash) | 0.55 kW (Control Valve) |
| Reverse Osmosis (RO) | 1,500 LPH Capacity | 2.2 kW – 3.0 kW |
| Ozone Generator | 5g/h – 10g/h | 0.5 kW |
| UV Sterilizer | 40W – 80W Lamp | 0.1 kW |
| Pure Water Pump | For the Filling Machine | 0.75 kW |
2. Bottle Production (Blow Molding)
If you are blowing your own PET bottles from preforms, this is the most power-intensive part of the plant due to the heating lamps.
| Equipment | Specs / Capacity | Power Consumption |
|---|---|---|
| 3-in-1 Monoblock | Rinse/Fill/Cap (8-8-3 heads) | 2.2 kW – 3.5 kW |
| Cap Elevator | Automatic cap feeder | 0.37 kW |
| Conveyor System | 10–15 meters total length | 0.75 kW (Variable) |
4. Labeling & Packaging
Final retail preparation of the bottles.
| Equipment | Specs / Capacity | Power Consumption |
|---|---|---|
| Sleeve Labeler | Shrink sleeve application | 1.5 kW |
| Shrink Tunnel | Heat tunnel for labels | 6.0 kW – 9.0 kW |
| Date/Inkjet Coder | Batch/Expiry printing | 0.1 kW |
| PE Film Wrapper | Grouping bottles (6/12/24) | 12.0 kW (Heating) |
Summary of Total Power Requirements
For a 1,500 BPH facility, your electrical setup should be designed for a Three-Phase (380V/480V) connection to handle the heavy motors and heating elements.
- Total Connected Load: ~50 kW – 65 kW
- Average Working Load: ~35 kW (Not all machines peak at once)
- Recommended Transformer/Generator: 80 kVA – 100 kVA (to allow for startup surges and future expansion).
Important Note on Biological Safety
Since you are focusing on “biologically free” production:
- HEPA Air Filters: Should be installed over the Filling/Capping zone (adds ~0.5 kW).
- Clean-in-Place (CIP) System: You should budget for a small semi-auto CIP unit to chemically sterilize the lines every 24 hours.
