- Automatic adjustment of other parameters: water temperature, dosage of detergent and rinse aid.
4 filter stages
The washing solution goes through the following steps:
- Filter cartridge cleans the solution from large particles of dirt and food debris.
- Fine filter - from small particles.
- Hydro Centrifuge Mediamat - from the smallest particles, such as coffee grounds.
- The filter installed at the pump inlet - from all other particles of dirt.
Washing field
The machines are equipped with two elliptical washing fields, which provide not only an effective washing, but also a 100% coverage of the washing chamber. What are the advantages:
- Sprinklers are located at the top and bottom of the field, which ensures optimal washing.
- Spray nozzles have a special shape for maximum coverage of all surfaces.
- Washing and rinsing jets are supplied under the correct pressure to any objects located in the washing zone.
- The built-in nozzles have a special shape that prevents clogging.
Routines
Innovation has touched many programs:
- ECO - mode to save resources and money;
- quiet cycle - almost silent work;
- intensive washing cope with the strongest pollution;
- decalcification;
- self cleaning;
- special program allows you to configure its parameters to the requirements and needs of the user.
Turbidity sensor
The sensor monitors the filter system while maintaining the purity of the water. What are its features:
- the sensor constantly monitors the level of water pollution in the tank;
- if the water is too turbid, it drains and the tank automatically refills with clean water.
Built-in detergent containers
Detergent and rinse aid containers are built into the housing, therefore, they significantly save the space around the appliance and are located in the quick access zone for level control. The advantages of this design:
- dispensers are easy to fill;
- no need to organize additional free space for canisters with chemistry (it will be relevant for the bar area and limited kitchen spaces).
Table Top Options Winterhalter
Consider the options that are available in all machines of the UC series, and their advantages:
- Energy Patented recirculation system for heat from exhaust air. Uses stored heat to heat cold water. Energy saves electricity, minimizes steam emissions when opening the hopper door and has a beneficial effect on the overall microclimate of the room in which the PMM is installed.
- Cool. Option to rinse glasses with cold water, which allows you to use them immediately after unloading from the hopper. This is especially important for beer glasses - this treatment provides a stable “head” of foam. Also, the Cool function is an additional plus to the hygiene of the camera. In this case, you can change the temperature when rinsing up to 65 degrees with one button.
- Built-in water softener. It works continuously and provides auto-regeneration during the entire washing process.
We add that the company equips its front-end equipment with all the necessary accessories at the request of the client:podiums and racks. They facilitate the loading and unloading of dishes, provide compact storage of cassettes.
In a stationary installation, the manufacturer proposes to purchase a pallet to the front dishwasher, which is installed on the machine body. Removing the utensils from the bunker, the worker will put them on this pallet so as not to breed the damp on the machine itself.
