THE WORKING VIEW

Why this commercial dishwasher earns its place

The PD1300A is a passthrough machine — soiled racks load in one side, clean racks come out the other. For kitchens where the dishwashing station sits between prep and service, or in brigade-style operations with steady throughput, this is the format that works: no waiting for machines to finish, no lifting clean racks back out the way they came. Just keep the racks moving through.

The increased wash arms and low-water design mean every cycle is efficient: you're not flooding the chamber, and coverage is thorough even with tight stacking. The superior peristaltic auto-dosing units dispense chemicals precisely, and because the chemical pump is built in, you adjust dosing directly from the LCD display. The integral softener handles hard water without maintenance fuss, and the heavy-duty wash pump pushes water reliably through high-volume service. The double-skinned hood contains heat, reducing energy loss and keeping your station cooler during peak periods.

Four fixed cycles plus a customisable My Wash mode give you the flexibility to dial in the right wash for breakfast, lunch, dinner or shift changes. Real-time temperature readouts keep you in the loop, and the previous-cycle display logs data for compliance. Soft touch controls make it straightforward to run, even when the station is under pressure. The engineer diagnostic mode shows fault logs and real-time readings if something needs attention.

BEFORE YOU BUY

Questions, answered straight

Passthrough machines have two openings: one for soiled racks, one for clean racks. They fit naturally into open kitchens where the dishwashing station sits between prep and service. Frontloading machines load and unload from the same door — they're more compact, but for high-volume brigade kitchens, passthrough keeps racks moving without collision.

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 (plates, bowls, pans, glasses). Use the dishwasher selector tool to estimate throughput for your peak service, or call Craven on 01792 732702 for sizing guidance.

It removes minerals from hard water before the wash, preventing scale buildup and cloudiness on glassware. The softening works automatically — no additional maintenance beyond periodic salt recharging.

The superior peristaltic auto-dosing units are built into the chemical pump. You adjust the dosing strength from the LCD display, not by float valves or dial adjustments. The system adapts to water hardness and rack load, so consumption stays efficient.

Low-water design minimises consumption per cycle. The drain pump moves water reliably, and a dedicated drain connection keeps backflow risks away from your kitchen. For specifics on your site's plumbing, contact Craven on 01792

The previous-cycle temperature display records rinse heat, and the fault logs capture any issues. Use the cleaning schedule generator to create printable HACCP rotas, so you have one place to record both machine cycles and manual cleaning protocols.
