Stalgast Electronic Hood Type Dishwasher 803035

A hood type dishwasher lifts away from the worktop to enclose a single rack of dishes in a sealed washing compartment. Hot water is pumped through rotating arms above and below the rack, spraying every surface at high pressure. The heat and detergent break down grease, while the force of the spray dislodges food particles. A final rinse at sanitising temperature kills bacteria, leaving dishes ready for immediate reuse without air-drying. The operator loads the 500 mm square rack with plates, trays, glassware or cutlery, slides it into the machine, and lowers the hood. An electronic control panel offers three cycle times—90, 120 or 180 seconds—so the kitchen can match speed to soil level. Detergent and rinse aid are metered automatically from built-in dispensers, eliminating manual dosing. Digital displays show boiler and compartment temperatures, allowing the chef to verify that sanitising conditions are met before the cycle ends. Once the hood is raised, the rack is removed and replaced with the next load. The seamless stainless-steel hood shrugs off splashes of hot rinse water and caustic detergents that would pit softer metals during every high-temperature sanitizing cycle. Four adjustable feet allow the unit to be levelled on uneven floors, preventing water from pooling inside. Inside the hood, two pairs of washing and rinsing arms—top and bottom—ensure full coverage of every item in the rack. A water purifier is required upstream to prevent limescale build-up, which would otherwise reduce efficiency and shorten the life of the heating element. The 10.8 kW power rating indicates the load the machine places on the electrical supply; a 400 V three-phase circuit is necessary to run it without overloading. The 728 mm width and 816 mm depth determine the space it occupies on the worktop, while the 1505 mm height allows it to fit beneath standard overhead cupboards. The 500 mm basket size sets the maximum dimensions for each load, and the 415 mm clearance dictates the tallest items that can be washed—plates, trays and most glassware. Cleaning involves daily wiping of the stainless steel surfaces and weekly descaling of the washing arms and interior. The detergent and rinse aid dispensers should be refilled as needed, and the water purifier cartridge replaced according to the manufacturer's schedule. The three included racks—a plate rack, a universal rack and a glassware rack—plus the cutlery container, are dishwasher-safe and should be cleaned alongside the dishes. The machine is supplied with a single basket size and voltage configuration. It is categorised under professional dishwashers in the Stalgast catalogue.
