DANUBE WEN-14 E ET2 Professional Washing Machine

A 14 kg commercial washing machine built for high-volume laundry operations, the DANUBE WEN-14 E ET2 handles large batches of textiles with consistent results. The drum rotates at speed, using centrifugal force to extract water after washing, reducing drying time and energy use in subsequent stages. Water and detergent are introduced through multiple inlets, ensuring even distribution across the load, while an internal heater raises the temperature to the required level for each programme. The machine adjusts water and chemical consumption automatically, matching the exact weight of the load to avoid waste and ensure thorough cleaning without overuse of resources.

Operation begins by loading textiles through the front door, which opens smoothly for easy access. The operator selects a programme from the touch screen, choosing from over twenty presets or creating a custom cycle tailored to specific fabrics or soil levels. Once started, the machine fills with water, heats it if needed, and agitates the load to loosen dirt. After washing, the drum spins at high speed to remove excess water, leaving fabrics damp rather than saturated. Throughout the cycle, the machine monitors progress and adjusts parameters in real time, optimising for efficiency and results.

The construction is designed for durability in professional settings. The drum and outer tub are made from AISI 304 stainless steel, resisting corrosion and wear from frequent use and harsh detergents. The frame is reinforced for floor mounting, preventing movement during high-speed spin cycles. Three water connections allow for flexible installation, accommodating different supply setups, while eight signal outputs integrate with automatic dosing systems for precise chemical delivery.

Controls are centralised on a 7-inch touch screen, which displays programme options, cycle progress, and video instructions for setup or troubleshooting. The EASY TOUCH 2 microprocessor supports 37 languages, making it adaptable for international teams. A USB port enables importing or exporting custom programmes, while DANUBE Online IoT connectivity allows remote monitoring, diagnostics, and management of the machine from a central system.

The 14 kg capacity allows the machine to process large volumes of laundry in a single cycle, reducing the number of loads needed for bulk operations. The 9.5 kW power rating reflects the energy required to heat water and drive the drum, requiring a dedicated electrical circuit. The 198 kg weight ensures stability during operation, while the 719 x 755 x 1165 mm footprint fits into standard laundry room layouts. The voltage selector accommodates both 400 V three-phase and 230 V single-phase supplies, making it suitable for a range of commercial installations.

Cleaning and maintenance are straightforward due to the accessible front panel, which opens to reveal the drum and internal components. The stainless steel surfaces resist staining and are easy to wipe down, while the self-cleaning functions help maintain hygiene between loads. The machine is compatible with professional laundry setups, including on-premises laundries and self-service operations, and can be configured for electric, hot water, or steam heating depending on the facility's infrastructure.

This model is equipped with electric heating, with alternative versions available for hot water or steam input. Additional accessories can be specified to enhance functionality, such as specialised detergent pumps or extended warranty packages.
