Winterhalter spotlights latest warewashing technology at Casual Dining 2014
Stand U531, BDC London 26-27 February
Clever technology means the latest warewasher from market leader Winterhalter is faster and saves energy compared to conventional models. Yet it delivers the best ever cleaning results. The new PT Series pass through machine will be on stand U531 at Casual Dining, where visitors will be able to check out its advanced features.
Speedy turnaround is of the essence in the casual dining sector. The PT Series has an energy control system that speeds up the washing process, increasing rack capacity per hour by 28% and reducing heat-up time by 50%. It works by making best use of the available power – for example, by prioritising heating of water, it ensures the boiler has maximum power when it needs it. However, in standby mode it allows the boiler temperature to reduce to minimise energy consumption. The speed of the system means the PT is ready for action faster than conventional passthroughs, allowing back-to-back rack washing, which will be a huge bonus for busy kitchens in peak times.
Another technological ‘first’ is that the PT Series is the only commercial warewasher with energy-saving heat exchanger technology fitted as standard. The system extracts energy from the waste water, using it to heat up the incoming cold water supply, reducing the machine’s carbon footprint and cutting energy costs by up to 10%.
Despite its speed and energy efficiency, the PT also delivers the best ever cleaning results. This is thanks to elliptical wash arms whose jets are individually formed, sized, positioned and angled to deliver 100% coverage, even into the wash cabinet corners, and achieve high pressure washing of heavily soiled items. In combination with the PT’s other new hygiene systems, the wash arms improve the brilliance of cleaning results by up to 29%.
