Classeq Pass Through Dishwasher CP500SR-22 with Steam Recovery Unit

The Classeq CP500SR-22 with Steam Recovery Unit is an extremely powerful, three-phase (22 amps/phase) hood-type pass-through dishwasher, specifically designed for high-demand professional kitchens. Not only is it WRAS Approved, but it also features a huge 12kW boiler element that delivers fast heat-up times and performance. Moreover, its versatile configuration supports both straight-through and corner setups, making it especially suitable for pubs, restaurants, schools, care homes, and hospitals.

Manufactured in the UK

Built in Staffordshire, Classeq ensures its commercial dishwashers meet the highest standards of quality and engineering. In addition, the CP500SR-22 model includes a reduced 30 litre wash tank, which significantly reduces water consumption while also lowering overall running costs. Thanks to the continuous hood cleaning system, daily maintenance and cleaning become much simpler for staff.

Features and Functionality

This UK-made machine features a digital control panel that clearly displays temperatures for both the wash and rinse tanks. In addition, staff can select 1.5, 3, 5, or 7 minute wash cycles to handle different levels of soiling. Furthermore, the intuitive two-button switch panel lets operators start and control cycles quickly, keeping daily use simple and reliable.

Smart onboard software continuously tracks water usage, temperature, and cycle count in real time. As a result, it delivers actionable insights that help staff optimise performance and improve efficiency. Meanwhile, the colour-coded display highlights the wash cycle status at a glance, allowing staff to monitor progress effortlessly.

An integral rinse booster pump maintains both water pressure and temperature during the critical rinse cycle. Consequently, it rinses and sanitises all crockery to a high standard. In addition, operators can activate temperature interlocks from the control panel, ensuring the machine reaches the required temperatures and giving full confidence in hygiene compliance.

Built-in Bluetooth® connectivity provides instant access to settings, performance data, user guides, and service information. On top of that, the machine includes practical extras such as an optional audible alarm for cycle completion, a deep-clean programme, a refresh cycle, and an energy-saving standby mode.

Importantly, the CP500-22 features a built-in drain pump, which removes the need to handle a drain plug manually. Therefore, staff simply switch off the machine and press the drain button, making shutdown fast and effortless. Moreover, the pump allows flexible installation, even in areas without gravity drainage, giving staff maximum convenience and adaptability.

Steam Recovery System

What sets this model apart is its new steam recovery feature. Instead of releasing hot steam into the kitchen, it captures and reuses the heat to preheat incoming water. As a result, it boosts energy efficiency and creates a more comfortable working environment—without requiring additional extraction systems.
For busy professional kitchens that need a dependable and smart warewashing solution, the Classeq CP500SR-22 with steam recovery delivers exceptional performance every time.
