CMA Dishmachines EST-3-D-EXT 26 In. Low Temperature Energy Saving 3-Door Dishwasher, 40 Racks/Hour, Power Drain, Built-In Chemical Pumps

SKUEST-3-D-EXT BrandCMA Dishmachines

The CMA Dishmachines EST-3-D-EXT Door-Type Dishwasher

The CMA Dishmachines EST-3-D-EXT is a low temperature, energy saving door type dishwasher with a three door, straight-thru layout and an extended height opening, washing 40 racks, or 160 covers, per hour on only 1.09 gallons of water per cycle. It fits restaurants and institutional dishrooms that feed a steady mix of plates, trays, and tall prep ware through one single rack machine. Sanitizing is chemical at a required 120°F water temperature, so the unit runs on a 115V, 16 amp circuit with no booster heater and no steam clouding up your dish area.

Three Door Straight-Thru Design

With doors on three sides of the chamber, your crew reaches the interior from the front and from both pass-through sides, which turns wash arm checks, stuck racks, and nightly tank cleaning into quick jobs rather than contortion acts. The straight-thru path lines up with a standard soiled-to-clean dishtable run. Each door opening measures 20-1/2 inches under the extended height wrapper, tall enough for sheet pans and stockpots, and total height with the doors open is 80-1/2 inches on a compact 25-3/4 inch by 25-3/4 inch footprint.

Low Temperature Chemical Sanitizing

Instead of the thermal rinse a high temperature machine buys with a booster heater and heavy wiring, the EST-3-D-EXT sanitizes chemically with 120°F incoming water, 140°F recommended. Its unique sanitizing system delivers instant sanitation and eliminates chlorine damage to the machine itself, so the sanitizer that protects your guests is not slowly eating your equipment. The 90 second cycle runs a 53 second wash, a 15 second rinse, and a 22 second dwell from a 1.09 gallon wash tank, with a 1 HP motor pushing 52 gallons per minute through upper and lower stainless steel wash arms.

Power Drain and Scrap Management

A power drain saves space, eliminates the noisy solenoid and external sump, and empties the machine quickly, keeping cycle turnaround tight through a rush. A self cleaning pump screen heads off the clogs that lead to service calls, the built-in Poly Pro scrap accumulator catches food soil before it reaches the drain, and a built-in strainer at the water inlet protects the water valve. An airgap fill system guards the incoming supply as the tank refills.

Built-In Chemical Pumps and Deliming System

Top mounted controls carry built-in chemical pumps that meter detergent, rinse aid, and sanitizer at the proper rates, plus a deliming system for the scale hard water leaves behind; CMA recommends softening the supply to 3.5 grains per gallon or less. Auto start/stop runs each cycle identically no matter who loads the machine. All stainless steel construction, including the pump impeller and scrap tray, handles years of hot detergent water, and two 20 inch by 20 inch dishracks are included so the machine works from the first shift.

Features & Benefits

  1. Built for restaurant and institutional dishrooms that push 40 racks and 160 covers per hour of mixed plates, trays, and tall prep ware through one machine.
  2. The three door, straight-thru layout opens the chamber from the front and both pass-through sides, simplifying rack handling and nightly interior cleaning.
  3. An extended 20-1/2 inch door opening takes sheet pans, stockpots, and mixing bowls that standard door machines cannot clear.
  4. Energy saving operation uses only 1.09 gallons of water per cycle, trimming water, chemical, and heating costs on every rack.
  5. Low temperature chemical sanitizing needs just 120°F incoming water, so there is no booster heater to install or feed.
  6. A unique sanitizing system provides instant sanitation while eliminating chlorine damage to the machine.
  7. The power drain saves space, eliminates the noisy solenoid and external sump, and drains the machine quickly between cycles.
  8. A self cleaning pump screen prevents the clogs that turn into service calls.
  9. All stainless steel construction, including the impeller and scrap tray, resists corrosion through years of daily use.
  10. Upper and lower stainless steel wash arms spread the 1 HP pump's 52 GPM output across the full rack.
  11. Top mounted controls include built-in chemical pumps that feed detergent, rinse aid, and sanitizer automatically.
  12. A deliming system clears hard-water scale before it builds up on the tank and arms.
  13. Auto start/stop operation keeps every cycle consistent and safe to run.
  14. An airgap fill system protects the incoming supply, the built-in Poly Pro scrap accumulator keeps food soil out of the drain, and the inlet's built-in strainer shields the water valve.
  15. Two 20 inch by 20 inch dishracks are included, and options cover a solid/powder dual bowl dispenser, Temp-Sure heater, low chemical alarm, stainless steel dishtables, slant shelf, alternative cycle times, and alternative power configurations.
