VEMA SP2078 Citrus Juicer for Professional Kitchens

A citrus juicer extracts juice by pressing halved fruit against a spinning reamer. The reamer's ridged surface breaks the pulp and releases the juice, which flows through a strainer into a collecting container. The motor drives the reamer at a steady speed, ensuring consistent extraction without manual effort. This method maximises yield from oranges, lemons, grapefruits and limes, producing clear juice with minimal pulp and no seeds.

To operate the SP2078, place a halved citrus fruit on the reamer, lower the lever to engage the motor, and hold until the fruit is fully pressed. The reamer stops when the lever is released, allowing the operator to remove the spent fruit and repeat the process. The collected juice drains into a separate container positioned beneath the strainer.

The SP2078 is constructed with a metallized body for durability in a busy kitchen environment. Its compact footprint of 200 mm depth, 320 mm width and 340 mm height fits on a worktop or counter, while the 7 kg weight allows it to be moved when needed.

The juicer operates on a 230 V single-phase supply at 50/60 Hz, drawing 0.27 kW. This power rating suits standard UK kitchen circuits and provides sufficient torque for continuous reaming at 400 rpm. The voltage and frequency range ensure compatibility with mains power across the UK and Europe.

Cleaning involves removing the reamer and strainer for washing after each use. The metallized body can be wiped down with a damp cloth, avoiding abrasive cleaners that could damage the surface. Regular cleaning prevents pulp build-up and maintains hygiene standards.

The SP2078 is available in a metallized body variant, designated SP2078/M.
