Why Hobart Rack conveyor dishwashers can be a cost effective option.

The Hobart CN conveyor rack dishwasher range, particularly the CN-E-A and CN-L-A models, stand out as excellent solutions for commercial kitchens, designed to meet the demands of any high volume commercial kitchens with it’s bespoke configurations tailored to each customer’s site and washing needs. These machines represent decades of research & development in order to deliver Hobart’s most efficient dishwashers yet, combining their highest hygiene standards and offering operational cost savings making them an excellent choice for any foodservice operation across the UK.
Advanced Features and Modular Flexibility
The CN series is built on a modular design philosophy, allowing pre washing, washing, drying and intermediate zones to be customized precisely. Customers can choose from different sizes of pre-wash sections to optimize throughput and water usage according to their specific requirements. This flexibility ensures each system is perfectly aligned to suit site constraints and workload, enhancing efficiency and hygiene standards.
The CN-E-A offer processing speeds around 150 racks per hour while the CN-L-A is capable of 180 racks per hour, catering to varying scales of operation. Both models can be equipped with the CHP heat recovery unit—a vent-free heat pump system—that utilizes waste heat to reduce energy consumption significantly. This innovation lowers running costs by recovering heat from the exhaust and moving it back into the wash water, reducing the need for energy input thus reducing power consumption and eliminating the need for an expensive extraction canopy above.
Automatic Soil Removal (ASR) System
A unique feature in these Hobart machines is the ASR (automatic Soil Removal) system. This advanced technology continuously monitors the soil level of the wash water and automatically circulates it through the machine to maintain consistently clean conditions by ejecting and food debris usually held in the pre wash tank to a storage box located outside of the machine. This reduces the frequency of water and chemical changes, conserves resources and results in improved cleaning performance. By optimizing the water’s cleanliness and removing food waste, the ASR system directly contributes to lowering man hours wasted on pre washing and as such reducing operational costs.
Heat Recovery Unit (CHP)
The CHP heat recovery unit further strengthens the environmental and economic advantages of the CN series. By capturing and reusing waste heat normally lost from the dishwasher’s exhaust , CHP minimizes energy expenditure— often a major cost for commercial kitchen operations. This unit reduces heat loss and decreases the kitchen’s overall carbon footprint, aligning with the growing demand for environmentally responsible kitchen solutions. By adding the CHP heat pump to the CN you eliminate the need for an expensive extraction canopy installation above the dishwasher, plus the heat pump will pay for itself and save you money over the lifetime of the machine.

Drying Sections: CDS and CDC Modules
Hobart offers both the CDS straight and CDC corner dryer sections, which add versatility to the conveyor rack dishwasher setup. These dryers effectively complete the washing cycle by providing efficient drying of racks, thus speeding up the entire dishwashing process and improving throughput. Choosing between straight or corner dryer sections allows adaptation to kitchen space limitations and workflow design without compromising drying performance.
