The Hobart FT900 flight-type dishwasher is engineered for operations requiring continuous, high-volume warewashing. Its flight conveyor system moves dishes, trays, and utensils through the wash and rinse cycles at a rate of 220 racks per hour. Measuring 48 inches wide, 26 inches deep, and 82 inches tall, the unit weighs 540 pounds and requires 208V/3ph electrical service at 20 kW.

This floor-mounted unit is built for heavy-duty use in institutional kitchens, large restaurants, hotels, and catering operations where operators need to process continuous streams of soiled ware. The flight-type conveyor design eliminates the need for racking individual loads, allowing operators to place items directly onto the conveyor for uninterrupted throughput. Installation requires adequate floor space, proper drainage, and access to hot water supply in addition to the electrical connection.

The FT900 features stainless steel construction typical of commercial flight-type machines and includes a 1 year parts warranty. Operators should plan for clearance around the unit for loading, unloading, and routine maintenance access. The electric heating system and high-temperature rinse cycle make this model suitable for facilities with adequate electrical infrastructure and ventilation to handle steam exhaust during operation.
