The Benefi t Makers

the benefi t makers

During more than 40 years of business, we have produced more
than a million industrial dishwashers at our two Italian plants,
numbers that refl ect our unrivalled experience in this particular
sector. Building on this experience, we have continued to develop
competitively-priced innovative products for leading players in
the catering industry, furnishing these with effective, consistent
benefi ts for their business. Elettrobar can, therefore, claim to
be more than just a dishwasher manufacturer: we are benefi t
makers.
Our company is fully aware of the increasing importance of
environmental protection issues and has taken major steps in
this direction, developing and patenting innovative technologies
able to reduce water, energy and detergent consumption
without impairing performance. We adopt extremely stringent
ISO 9001:2008 certifi ed quality control procedures to propose
products built to withstand even the harshest operating conditions.
Our dishwashers are manufactured at forefront facilities both
as regards workplace safety and protection and environmental
impact, as confi rmed by ISO 14001:2004 certifi cation.

With the aim of delivering increasingly energy and water effi cient
products, we have examined each single phase of the wash
cycle (washing, rinsing and drainage), pioneering and adopting
technologies and methods that promote a considerable reduction
in consumption while guaranteeing performance on a par with or
exceeding that of conventional systems:

EWT (Elettrobar Wash Technology) is our way of using 35% less
energy to power the wash pump.

EDS (Elettrobar Drain System) is our way of reducing detergent
concentration by a further 10%. In this way, compared with
conventional models, a Niagara dishwasher can consume up to
15% less detergent.

EVI (Elettrobar Visual Interface) is our way of assuring simple
control and operation of the dishwasher with a communication
protocol based on colours, letters and numbers.

EWT

Most losses of power occur in the deviator that
separates the water directed towards the upper
arm from that routed to the lower arm. Elettrobar’s
EWT simple, genial patented solution eliminates
the deviator and has prompted the development
of the exclusive dual fl ow, double outlet pump
connected directly to the arms. Power loss is
eliminated, with a consequent reduction in pump
power, i.e. consumption with the same washing
force.
The light, strong composite material high-tech arm
requires less energy for rotation and guarantees
optimal distribution of water.

EDS

Conventional drainage systems use a gravity
waste to drain excess water during rising. As the
clean water is lighter than the dirty water in the
tank, it fl oats on top of this and around 35% is
discharged directly into the drain and not in the
tank. EDS exploits the principle of Archimedes,
using the clean intake water to exert a “piston”
effect that pushes the dirty water from the bottom
of the tank to the gravity waste. In this way, only
17% of the clean water is drained directly, the
detergent solution in the tank is cleaner and a
lower concentration of detergent can be used.

EVI

A new user-friendly interface based on a four­character LED screen that displays essential
information: program selected, wash and rinse
temperatures, number of cycles performed, user
alerts, error messages. A visual check control
changes colour, from green to yellow to red, to
indicate machine status. A second bar shows
progress of the cycle.

benefi ts

First benefi t:

performance

Elettrobar’s dual fl ow pump technology and
high-tech arm effectively reduce losses of power
and of water pressure at the outlet of the pump until
the water reaches the object to be washed; wash
temperature is 60°C compared with a conventional
50°C. This generates three concurrent positive
effects: more powerful soil removal, maximum
effectiveness of the detergent promoted by high
temperature and a reduction in cycle times while
delivering the same results.

Second benefi t:

green economy

Water is a precious element, detergents are
pollutants, generating electric energy disperses
CO2 in the atmosphere. With a water consumption
of less than 3 litres per rack and dual fl ow pumps,
Niagara delivers impeccable washing in less time,
also absorbing less power, while the EDS patented
drainage system promotes a 10% reduction in
detergent concentration compared with a machine
with conventional gravity drain.

Third benefi t:

higher profi ts

Reducing consumption also means cutting
running costs and, therefore, boosts profi ts while
guaranteeing perfect hygiene and bright, clean
dishes.

Fourth benefi t:

Fifth benefi t:

Sixth benefi t:

ease of use

With the EVI interface, you can choose one of the
three programs available (fresh soil, standard,
very dirty plates), display machine functioning
status and also the point of the cycle reached,
manage the software-regulated rinse aid and
(optional) detergent dispensers, display error
messages, operating temperatures and number
of cycles performed in a completely user-friendly
manner, without the need for long staff training.

fast cleaning

End-of-shift cleaning operations are certainly the
most fatiguing and stressing for operators. Niagara
dishwashers are designed and constructed
according to very simple, effi cient principle: as
all points where food soil may be trapped have
been eliminated, this does not accumulate and
need not be removed. Other factors include
fully moulded tanks, integral tank fi lters, wash
chambers without internal hoses. All Niagara hood
models also feature a high temperature self-clean
program for even faster cleaning.

ergonomics

The steel wire rack support grid is hinge mounted
(patent pending) with stop rod that facilities tank
cleaning operations. Smooth lifting of the hood,
with minimum effort, is assured by a patented
system and construction with the rear side open
prevents steam blowing into the operator’s face
on opening. The machine can be installed in line
or in a corner confi guration without requiring
additional components.
