THE WORKING VIEW

Why this commercial dishwasher earns its place

The DC PD50A IS D is the complete package for challenging kitchen conditions. It combines the integral water softener (IS) for hard-water spotless results with the integral drain pump and break tank (D) for plumbing flexibility. If your kitchen sits in a hard-water area and the plumbing layout doesn't allow gravity drainage, this is the answer.

Hard water and poor drainage are two separate problems, but they compound. Scale and spotting kill glassware and reputation; plumbing awkwardness kills your layout options and budget. The PD50A IS D solves both. The integral softener strips hardness minerals before wash, so plates and glasses emerge spotless. The softener regenerates automatically — no external boxes, no engineer call-outs. The integral drain pump lifts wastewater, so you can site the dishwasher where it makes operational sense, not where gravity dictates.

You get the same reliable 500×500 mm frontloading performance as the standard PD50: touchscreen controls, four fixed cycles plus adjustable My Wash, superior chemical dosing. Real-time temperature readouts and cycle logging keep compliance records clean and audit-ready. Double-skinned insulation keeps heat in and noise down. Heavy-duty wash pump and hydro-dynamic basket runners handle high throughput. The break tank is a water-pressure buffer that protects the whole circuit from surges.

BEFORE YOU BUY

Questions, answered straight

Yes. The integral softener handles hard water — it strips minerals automatically and regenerates as part of the cycle. The integral drain pump lifts wastewater, so you don't need gravity fall to the waste line. Together, they mean spotless results and flexible siting. If you need confirmation your water hardness matches the softener's capacity, ring Craven on 01792

The softener uses ion-exchange resin to remove hardness minerals. It regenerates automatically during the machine's cycle management — you don't manually recharge it or call an engineer. It's fully integrated into the wash cycle timing, so it just happens in the background.

The superior peristaltic auto-dosing units inject detergent and rinse aid throughout the cycle. You adjust both from the LCD control panel — dial in the strength you want, and the machine calculates dosing for each cycle type. Over-dosing waste drops, and your wash consistency stays high. The softened water improves rinse aid performance too.

The integral pump runs during the drain phase — it's not silent, but it's automated and finishes quickly. The double-skinned insulation keeps noise reasonable. If it develops a fault, it's covered by your Craven warranty; ring 01792 732702 for servicing. Engineers can access diagnostic logs and repair or replace the pump.

Standard incoming mains water to the machine and a waste outlet at any height — the pump does the lifting. The break tank (built in) protects the circuit from pressure spikes. Your Craven installer will survey your space and quote on the run distance; the integral pump means you're not constrained by gravity or elevation.

The 500×500 mm frontloading format is compact and fits tight restaurant and hotel kitchens. You receive three standard baskets. The softener, pump and break tank are all built in — no external boxes or add-ons needed beyond standard water inlet and waste outlet connections.
