The Hobart CL44e conveyor dishwasher is engineered for heavy-duty performance in high-volume foodservice environments. With a throughput capacity of 195 racks per hour, this electric unit handles continuous dish flow during peak service periods. The conveyor belt system allows operators to load soiled items at one end while clean, sanitized ware exits at the other, maintaining efficient workflow in busy operations.
Measuring 44 inches wide by 25 inches deep by 78 inches high and weighing 510 pounds, the CL44e requires adequate floor space and structural support during installation. The unit operates on 208V three-phase electrical service with a 17 kW power draw, necessitating proper electrical infrastructure and circuit protection. The conveyor-type construction is designed for floor mounting, and operators should plan for clearance around the unit for loading, unloading, and routine maintenance access.
The CL44e delivers a 180 °F final rinse temperature to meet commercial sanitization standards. Hobart backs this model with a 1 year parts warranty. The included conveyor belt is integral to the unit's continuous operation design, distinguishing it from door-type or undercounter models that process racks in batches. This configuration suits restaurants, hotels, cafeterias, and other facilities where dish volume justifies a dedicated conveyor system.
