Check out this CRS-66 with the power-prewash, scrap accumulator and rotating upper wash system in the main wash section. These Dishmachines are now rare at best and strong enough to blast the bullshit out of a politician's brain.

A Classic undercounter Dishmachine

Quite pricey but a good machine nonetheless.

Good Looking!

The CRS-66 looks surprisingly unsused for its age. Clean and mostly dirty free. I suppose the frequent usage at very high temperatures (and pre-rinsed dishes) is responsible for such a "young looking," high-mileage machine.

Under-Counter Hobart Dishwasher

Nick this would make a great DW for someone and at the buy-it -now  price it is no more expensive than a new TOL KA DW. We have a customer in NW DC that has had this DW in their kitchen as the only DW since 1967 and they use it everyday, she said it is so fast during dinner parties that as the plates are cleared from one coerce the plates come right to the table with the nest coarse. This DW will fit in the space of a normal machine and all you need is 140 degree water for home use, this machine is so efficient in fact that it could get an Energy-Star award.

UM and CRS

Both those machines are in Nice Shape.

Really surprised to see a UMP4D. The D stands for Dual water inlet valves. These had a fill valve for the Wash Cycle (140-150F) and a second valve for the Rinse Cycle (180F) These machines have the Big Blue Wash System and with the chamber being smaller than a KD-10-12 series, the cycle time is 3 1/2 minutes.

That CRS is a beauty too. That Upper Revolving Wash System blasts the soil right off plates.

As Steve says parts for these machines are just about non existant.

What ashame you can't get parts anymore.

Probably not much pre-rinsing was done with this machine as it has a power prewash and external scrap accumulator.   Most any food soil would end up in the first 2 feet of the machine.  This dishmachine was well cared for(cleaned and delimed regularly).   To be sure yes, the high temps (160F wash and 180F rinse) do help keep the machine clean as well as sanitize the dishes.  Realize that when used properly over 200 racks of dishes per hour could be run through this machine (Without prewashing!) with 2 hours between water changes.

30 second wash

toploader55's profile picture
In the Specification Sheet,

When you start the machine, the Drain Valve closes and the motor runs for 30 seconds. Then the Fill valve opens for 30 seconds. The Wash time is 120 seconds.

As Hobart says "It's small but mighty". So True and I Love that. Just too bad they don't make these anymore.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Hobart. Keep in mind that has a 1/4 HP motor and residential Hobart Kitchenaids used 1/2 HP motors.

 

Ready to pick that KDS-18 in New York, yet? ;>)
