The drying temperature is first controlled at 45℃-60℃, and then it can be gradually increased, but not more than 70℃. Dry until the moisture content of the dry product is below 6%. Dehydrated pumpkin slices should be light yellow or orange-red, flaky or silky.Pumpkin powder: Dehydration controls the moisture of the dried product at 14%.

Recommendation of pumpkin dryer/drying machine
Commercial 100-3000kg/h large amount of dehydration wide application and easy operation
Heat pump drying machine use the principle of inverse Carnot cycle. It absorbs low-temperature heat energy in the air, which becomes high-temperature heat energy after efficient heat collection and integration by the heat pump system, and is transported to the drying room for cyclic heating and drying of materials.It refers to exhausting the hot and humid air in the drying room directly to the outside of the drying room through dehumidification device, and then replenishing natural fresh air.
Hot air circle drying machine belongs to high temperature heat pump unit. Its working principle is: the working fluid of the heat pump is compressed by the compressor, becomes high temperature and high pressure gas, enters the condenser, condenses and liquefies the heat, and is used for air heating in the drying room. The moisture in the material is vaporized and evaporated by the form of hot air, and the evaporated water vapor is discharged by the moisture discharge system, thereby achieving the purpose of drying the drying material.
