In catering establishments, dishes have not been washed by hands for a long time - for this purpose special dishwashers with a high technical resource have been created. Let's see which dishwashers for the dining room manufacturers offer.
Professional dishwashers for food service
Household dishwashers (PMM) are much cheaper than professional ones. They are not able to work as hard as pros. They can be used where you have to wash dishes 2-3 times a day. For example, in a kindergarten or a private guesthouse. Where you have to wash the dishes more often, you need special machines - professional ones.
The dishwashers installed in the dining rooms have special requirements:
- Increased performance. The device should work almost without interruptions - dirty cups will not wait until the machine “rests”.
- Big load. In catering establishments, school and industrial canteens at the same time a large amount of dirty dishes arrives. In accordance with the average number of visitors, the capacity of the device is selected.
- High washing speed. In catering, there is no time to wait for clean plates for 2-3 hours - namely, the washing time in household PMM lasts so long.
PMM Features for Dining Rooms
Nowhere is there such an intensive turnover of dishes, as in inexpensive catering. There are always a lot of visitors here, whether it is a canteen at school, at the factory or for everyone.
Industrial dishwashers wash dishes powerfully, efficiently and quickly. Their functions include:
- Cleaning dishes with water jets - this removes dirt.
- Washing with detergent - dishes are completely cleaned.
- Primary and secondary rinsing - this completes the cycle.
Water temperature depends on the washing stage. At first it is 50-60 ° C. When rinsing, the temperature rises to 80–90 ° C - this is necessary to kill bacteria. Such processing meets the requirements of SES.
Types of Professional PMM
There are two groups of continuous dishwashers:
- Tunnel conveyor. They have a conveyor on which to lay the dishes - here she spends most of the time in water, so the sink is considered very high quality.
- Cassette They have special cassettes, which are then installed in the washing chamber. This option is more suitable for small catering establishments. Cassette machines are more compact than conveyor machines, and one worker can deal with them.
Cartridges must be purchased for both types of PMM. They are needed for fixing devices. If the spoons and forks are not fixed, they will be knocked out by jets of water supplied under high pressure.
Cassette PMM are front and dome. The latter are equipped with tables, sinks, trash cans and a rinse shower.
How to choose?
Loading PMM is selected depending on the number of servings sold per day. One serving is a plate, a mug, spoons, forks, a cup, possibly, another 1-2 items.
PMM is recommended to be chosen as follows:
- 100–300 servings per day - frontal industrial dishwashers. Productivity - small or medium.
- 400–2500 servings - a dome or tunnel machine with a capacity not lower than average. In such establishments, a productivity of 40-50 baskets per hour is needed.
- Over 3,000 servings - tunnel dishwashers with a capacity of 80-100 baskets per hour.
The machine should hold so many dishes and wash it so quickly that the dining room does not linger for a minute.

Conclusions
To summarize:
- The most expensive PMMs are tunnel ones. But such devices work faster than anyone, they are able to wash large volumes - quickly and efficiently.
- Small enterprises may well be limited to front-end PMPMs - they are much cheaper than tunnel ones.
- For servicing a cafe, a bar, and even less a dining room, ordinary Bosch or Siemens will not work. Even the best household appliances are not designed for catering. With the load characteristic of establishments with a lot of visits, household appliances will quickly exhaust their resources and become worthless.
The success of the dining room depends largely on the right dishwasher. There are professional PMMs for sale, designed for any amount of work, so you can choose the best option for an institution with any attendance.
