Washtech TW Undercounter Traywasher

Washtech TW Undercounter Tray washer

The Washtech TW Undercounter Tray washer is the ultimate space-saving sanitation workhorse engineered specifically for compact Australian commercial kitchens, artisan bakeries, and boutique patisseries. Designed to slide effortlessly beneath standard kitchen benches, this heavy-duty undercounter tray washer bridges the gap between small glasswashers and massive pot washers.

It features an oversized internal washing chamber and dual wash and rinse systems that easily accommodate baking trays, mixing bowls, and large preparation utensils. It eliminates the time-consuming chore of manual sink scrubbing while ensuring strict commercial hygiene compliance for your business.

Why the Washtech TW is Perfect for Large Busy Commercial Kitchens

Boutique bakeries, medium-sized cafes, and specialty food prep areas handle large volumes of greasy baking sheets and bulky mixing equipment daily. Standard commercial undercounter dishwashers simply do not have the internal clearance to fit these items, while traditional pot washers demand too much floor space. The Washtech TW provides a highly effective solution.

• Oversized Internal Clearance: Built with a vast usable internal washing chamber (W 800mm x D 545mm x H 470mm). It accommodates large baking trays, mixer bowls, dinner plates, and tall kitchen utensils with ease.
• Quik Connect Plug & Play Installation: Arrives factory-configured with a standard 15 Amp plug set, requiring no complex commissioning or expensive multi-phase electrical rewiring.
• Resource-Efficient Performance: Despite its incredible industrial strength, the machine runs on a remarkably low hot water consumption rate of just 3.3 litres per cycle. This lowers your venue’s daily water, chemical, and heating electricity costs.

Key Benefits & Operational Advantages

Versatile Rapid Service Cycles

Select between 2 and 4-minute wash programs directly from the intuitive control panel. This lets kitchen hands instantly match machine speeds to soil levels, clearing light bread trays in 120 seconds or blasting heavily baked-on fats in 4 minutes.

Washtech Hybrid Controls

Built for maximum durability in harsh, wet hospitality environments, the hybrid control setup pairs water-resistant IP65 stainless steel switches and tried-and-tested electromechanical switchgear with a highly reliable, customisable electronic timer.

Triple Stainless-Steel Filtration

Cleaning & Maintenance Section

Maintaining the high-pressure cleaning performance of your undercounter tray washer requires a few basic cleaning habits:

1. Empty the Scrap Trays Daily: Lift out, empty, and rinse the dual stainless steel scrap trays after every heavy shift to prevent debris from clogging the pump filtration system.
2. Wipe the Internal Chamber: Use a soft damp cloth to clean internal cabinet surfaces daily. Avoid blasting high-pressure external water hoses directly at the control panel buttons.
3. Inspect the Nozzles: Periodically check the independent stainless-steel wash and rinse arms, clearing any mineral scale or food sediment from the precision jets to preserve water velocity.
