Honey extractor Lyson OPTIMA, 6 frames, dia. 80 cm

Electric Reversible Honey Extractor for 6 Frames Ø800 mm – Lyson Optima (12 V/230 V)

Do you want to speed up honey extraction and get rid of constant manual frame turning? This six-frame reversible (cassette) honey extractor from the Optima series by manufacturer Lyson is designed for medium and larger beekeepers who are looking for reliable performance, smooth operation and gentle handling of combs.

The reversible construction has one fundamental advantage: frames are not turned manually. After changing the direction of rotation, the cassettes flip themselves, making extraction faster, more comfortable and less strenuous – ideal for larger numbers of supers and during intensive honey flows.

Dual Power Supply for Honey House and Remote Apiary

The model offers practical 230 V and 12 V power supply. In the honey house you can connect it to the regular electrical grid, in the field it can work from a 12V car battery. You will appreciate this during migratory beekeeping, at locations without electricity and during seasonal moves.

Gentle Extraction and Process Control

Thanks to the control unit HE-01U you have extraction under control – automatic programs and manual mode are available. Smooth motor start-up and the cassette system help protect the comb from damage, which is an advantage especially when extracting foundation combs or thicker honeys.

Suitable Frame Sizes

The basket is designed for a wide range of common frame sizes. Thanks to the cassette dimensions (depth 44 cm × width 25 cm), the extractor is suitable for example for:

- Langstroth: sizes from 137 mm up to 232 mm (Original).
- 39 × 24: including lower variants, e.g. 39 × 17.
- Optimal: 42 × 17 and others.

Stainless Steel Construction, Easy Maintenance and Safe Operation

The extractor is made from food-grade acid-resistant stainless steel, which is easy to maintain and ready for years of operation in beekeeping practice. The transparent plexiglass lid allows monitoring of the extraction process without opening. There is also a safety switch that immediately stops the motor when the lid is opened during operation.

Important notice for 12 V power supply: Use only a car battery or original Lyson transformer. Regular car chargers can damage the control unit and cause irreversible failure.

Technical Parameters

The package also includes anti-vibration PVC pads that help maintain extractor stability even with uneven frame loading.
