THE WORKING VIEW

Why this commercial dishwasher earns its place

The PD1300A IS is a passthrough machine engineered for kitchens with specific water-pressure conditions. The break tank handles drainage and pressure management, protecting the machine and your plumbing from backflow or excessive pressure — a feature you'll need if your kitchen has high-pressure water systems or complex drainage. If your setup requires one, this is the right format.

The core washing platform is built for serious throughput: increased wash arms ensure coverage even with dense loads, and the low-water design keeps cycle times efficient. The superior peristaltic auto-dosing units dispense chemicals with precision, adjustable from the LCD display. The heavy-duty wash pump pushes water reliably through busy service, and the double-skinned hood contains heat, reducing energy loss and keeping your washing station cooler when it's running continuously.

Soiled racks load one side, clean racks emerge the other — passthrough format fits naturally into brigade kitchens where the washing station sits between prep and service. Four fixed cycles plus customisable My Wash mode let you dial in the right wash for your typical loads. Real-time temperature readouts and previous-cycle logging keep compliance records clean and straightforward. Soft touch controls and an LCD display make it intuitive to operate, and the engineer diagnostic mode shows you exactly what's happening if anything needs attention.

BEFORE YOU BUY

Questions, answered straight

The break tank manages water pressure and provides controlled drainage, protecting the machine from pressure spikes and preventing backflow into your kitchen plumbing. It's essential if your kitchen has high-pressure water systems or shared drainage with other heavy-load equipment.

Not necessarily. If you have standard mains pressure and standard drainage, the standard PD1300A is the right choice. If you're unsure about your water pressure or drainage requirements, call Craven on 01792 732702 and describe your setup — they'll advise whether break-tank protection is worth the investment.

That depends on cycle length and your load pattern. The four fixed cycles and customisable My Wash mode let you dial in your typical rack type. Use the dishwasher selector tool to estimate throughput, or call Craven for sizing guidance based on your peak service load.

Passthrough machines have two openings — one for soiled racks, one for clean. They fit naturally into open kitchens where the washing station sits between prep and service, keeping clean and soiled racks moving separately. Frontloading machines load and unload from the same door, so they're more compact but need different kitchen layouts.

The superior peristaltic auto-dosing units inject chemicals automatically, adjustable from the LCD display. This keeps dosing precise and efficient without float-valve adjustment — consumption stays low even with varying water hardness or load types.

The previous-cycle temperature display records rinse temperatures automatically. The fault logs capture any anomalies. Use the cleaning schedule generator to create printable HACCP rotas and build one record covering both machine cycles and manual cleaning protocols.
