Eswood UT20H High Performance Potwasher

Eswood UT20H High-Chamber Recirculating Commercial Pot & Utensil Washer

The Eswood UT20H is a heavy-duty, high-performance industrial pot and utensil washer engineered specifically to satisfy the most punishing cleaning tasks in high-volume Australian commercial kitchens. Designed with an ultra-tall front-loading configuration, this powerful machine blasts away baked-on grease, caramelised proteins, and heavy starches from deep cooking vessels. It delivers a reliable, continuous sanitising solution that eliminates slow, unhygienic manual sink soaking behind the wash bench.

Optimised for large hotels, production bakeries, centralized catering operations, busy pubs, and food manufacturing plants, the Eswood UT20H introduces unmatched processing capacity. Boasting an extra-deep wash chamber with a massive 800mm clear vertical entry clearance, it comfortably accommodates bulky 60-litre mixing bowls, oversized roasting pans, tall stockpots, bun pans, and standard 75-litre garbage bins that fail to fit inside traditional commercial dishwashers or standard pot washers.

In high-output catering and food preparation environments, managing labour constraints while maintaining strict sanitary health codes dictates daily operational profitability. The Eswood UT20H directly answers these structural pressures by combining high-volume wash and rinse pumps with independent, rotating top and bottom stainless steel spray arms. This hydrodynamic configuration features newly engineered water jets that deliver a knife-like action, blasting and stripping heavy dirt from all soiled surfaces without causing structural utensil damage thanks to precision wash jet balancing that removes the need for awkward hold-down devices.

Operational durability and safety are woven into the heavy-duty chassis design layout. Once turned on and up to temperature, operation is simple and easily managed by kitchen staff—simply slide the baskets in, push a button, and the unit launches its powerful cleaning cycle. To eliminate deployment and compliance headaches, the machine comes standard with factory-fitted wash and rinse pumps, accurate digital temperature displays, and an operation interlocked to rinse temperature. This ensures a cleaning cycle cannot finish until the booster water achieves legal sanitisation boundaries, making it easy to pass strict council health audits during peak service rushes.

Versatile Hospitality Industry Use Cases

• Commercial Production Bakeries: Rapidly clean tall dough hooks, planetary mixing paddles, and deep 60-litre mixing bowls to keep baking production lines flowing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Can the Eswood UT20H run off a standard 15-amp single-phase power plug?
A: No. The UT20H features high-performance 13.5 kW elements and heavy-duty industrial pumps that require a hardwired 3 Phase 415V electrical supply connection to function safely.

Q: What is the main difference between the UT20 and the UT20H models?
A: The UT20H is a tall-chamber model that expands the vertical clearance up to 800mm clear. This allows it to accommodate exceptionally tall items like 75-litre garbage bins and extra-deep stockpots that cannot fit into standard pot washers.

Q: Does this model include an internal drainage pump assembly?
A: The standard UT20H configuration is built as a gravity-drain system via a 2” BSP waste line. If your commercial kitchen plumbing features an elevated wall waste trap, a specialized internal drain pump must be factory-fitted.

Q: Can this machine wash standard 500x500mm dishwasher racks?
A: Yes. While it is built to hold large pots and utensils on its heavy-duty base tracking layout, standard 500x500mm washing baskets can easily be slid inside to run rapid cycles of kitchen utensils or smaller prep bowls.

Q: Why does the machine feature an operation lock tied to rinse temperatures?
A: This built-in safety interlock pauses the cleaning loop countdown if the booster tank water drops below required levels, guaranteeing that the final rinsing stage always achieves the exact thermal sanitising temperature needed to satisfy local health councils.
