Fagor WHC-502TRCBD - iNova Pass-Through Dishwasher with Heat Recovery

The Fagor WHC-502TRCBD is the heat recovery version of the iNova pass-through dishwasher. At the end of each cycle it uses the machine's own heat to warm the incoming cold water from about 10°C to 25°C, which cuts energy use, releases less steam into the kitchen and helps glasses and plates dry faster. FED says it can be installed without an external exhaust hood (subject to conditions), so it suits restaurants, hotels and clubs where adding a canopy is hard.

Key features:

• Energy recovery system runs for 40 seconds (configurable) at the end of each cycle, pre-heating incoming water from 10°C to 25°C
• Less steam when the hood opens, for a cooler, more comfortable work area and faster drying
• FED states no external exhaust hood is needed, subject to compliant background ventilation and site approval
• 500 x 500 mm baskets at up to 40 per hour; 90, 120 and 180 second cycles plus an extended 480 second cycle
• Washes at 60°C and rinses at 85°C, with a 33 litre tank (3 kW) and 750 W wash pump
• Drain pump, peristaltic detergent dispenser and hydraulic rinse aid dosing, with chemical dosing control
• Duo-KLIP wash and rinse arms, soft-start dual-flow pump, volumetric rinse and double-stage filtration
• Hood slides on metal runners; set up in a line or a corner, working in either direction
• LED displays with error codes and a magnetic switch that stops the cycle if the hood is lifted

Common questions:

Do I need an exhaust canopy over it?
FED says no external exhaust hood is required, provided there is compliant background ventilation and site mechanical approval, and Fagor's set-up and maintenance requirements are met. Confirm with your ventilation designer or council.

Can I connect it to hot water?
No. The heat recovery system warms the incoming water, so Fagor recommends a cold water supply between 15°C and 25°C, with a maximum of 25°C.

Do you install it?
We supply the equipment only. It must be connected by a licensed plumber and a licensed electrician.
