Champion® Unveils New Options On Genesis DH-5000: No Vent Hood Required
WINSTON-SALEM, NC (SEPTEMBER 2011) - Champion® Industries, manufacturer of a full line of premier commercial ware washing systems for over 100 years, proudly unveiled two new options on their GENESIS DH-5000, their hooded door machine that reduces cost, improves appearance, and increases performance. The DH5000 Direct Vent is an industry exclusive, that allows the unit to vent directly to the outside removing steam and heat, not conditioned air. The DH5000 Condensate Removal works to remove heat and water vapor at the end of a cycle while recovering the normally exhausted heat and transferring it to the booster. Energy Star® Qualified, these machines decrease energy usage for utilities savings, boasting an overall savings of $4,000 per year one and $1,000 per year thereafter!
The condensate removal system eliminates steam in the room by capturing the water vapor and decreases energy usage by pre-heating the incoming water. This system uses the incoming cold water to cool and condense steam at the end of the cycle. The direct vent feature allows for the unit to vent directly outside with no vent hood purchase required, combining the versatility and simple install of Champion's highly regarded Versa-Clean DH2000 system, with the features of a sloped hood and condensate removal. Note: Vent hood is recommended on DH5000 base model.
These GENESIS DH-5000 door machines tackle the most delicate of wares to the grimiest of pans while being completely user friendly. These machines features Champion's patent pending Tri-Rinse System that puts more water on the dishes where it belongs, keeping the energy and water consumption at low levels. Offering two 'Cycle Select' cleaning options of 53racks per hour (normal operation) or 38 racks per hour (extended clean), this machine uses only .83gallons per rack, with a rack capacity of 9 gallons.
These new door machines feature a user-friendly auto start that engages the cycle when the doors are closed. The unit will automatically fill when the power is turned on and automatically drain when the power is turned off.
Available in a multitude of configurations ranging in voltage from 208-480, a built-in booster, sized specifically for this unit, is configured for both a 40 and 70-degree rinse. The unit comes standard 3 phase, with electric 5.2 KW tank with a 7.5 KW booster, but steam or gas heated tanks are available and it is easily field convertible to single phase.
Other standard features of the new door machines include 'Rinse Sentry,' ensuring the rinse temperature is always correct, as well as single point connection and signal connections for chemicals, vent fan and running signal. The controls are bottom mounted and will use digital gauges and stainless steel buttons.
