Profi or Premax: It's Your Choice!

Hobart offers two distinct lines to meet your specific warewashing demands:

Profi Line

The Profi line is designed for professionals requiring the highest standards of cleanliness. It is tailored to wash volumes and soil levels, combining efficient warewashing with user-friendliness and low operating costs. Numerous equipment options make the Profi line a versatile solution for any operation.

Premax Line

The Premax line is ideal for operators needing higher proficiency across all areas. It offers minimal operating costs, impressive user-friendliness, and high performance. As one of the most economical and innovative dishwasher lines, Premax enhances the features of Profi models with unique product characteristics, setting the standard for demanding warewashing.

The Models

Hobart helps you make the right decision with its range of models:

Profi FX

A reliable and simple model for washing tableware, cutlery, and glasses. It is ideally suited for restaurants, bistros, and cafés. It can be optionally equipped with the innovative Cutlery Premium feature.

Profi FXL

Featuring an XL depth wash chamber, this model efficiently cleans baking trays and meat trays, making it an ideal partner for bakers, butchers, and fast-food outlets.

Premax FP (Premax Line Exclusive)

The premium model with integrated drying provides a perfect drying result. With a water consumption of just 0.8 liters, the Premax FP is one of the most economical undercounter dishwashers available. It uniquely utilizes hot waste steam to manage extremely high levels of soil deposits on wash ware. It comes standard with TOP-DRY drying and offers the Cutlery Premium feature as an option.

Cutlery Premium: Shaken, Not Polished

Achieve shiny cutlery without manual polishing. This feature eliminates the time-consuming process of individually cleaning cutlery residues, a common task in the hospitality industry. The patent-pending Cutlery Premium feature integrates this function directly into the dishwasher.

Space Saver: Unlike conventional cutlery polishing machines that occupy valuable kitchen space, Hobart FP and FX dishwashers optionally integrate this polishing function.

Plate rack out, cutlery rack in: The machine can be retrofitted with the cutlery rack and its support. At the end of the wash cycle, the automatic shaking of the cutlery rack causes water drops to roll off, resulting in perfectly clean and stain-free cutlery ready for sorting.

Benefits: Save an average of 30 minutes of working time per day. The system is protected by full demineralisation or reverse osmosis (RO-S) and uses HYLINE rinse aid and detergent.

We Make Polishing Obsolete... Save Time, Space, and More

Perfect Wash Results

The rotating cutlery basket ensures hygienically clean, stain-free cutlery, accommodating up to 80 items. This eliminates issues like unsatisfactory wash results and stains caused by overlapping or water shielding.

Safe Operation

The machine automatically selects the Cutlery Premium program when the cutlery rack support is in place, preventing operating errors.

Your Benefits

• Lower labor costs by eliminating time-consuming manual polishing.
• Save space with a single machine for both washing and polishing.
• Ensure perfect hygiene, as manual polishing with tea towels is eliminated.
• At busy times, cutlery can be put straight back in place, allowing staff to focus on guests.
• Automatic cutlery program selection ensures easy operation.
• Achieve optimum wash results by avoiding water shielding.

High Level of Economy (Premax Line Exclusive)

Eco Programme

Enjoy great performance with low consumption. Low water consumption and short cycle times are key to reducing costs and saving time. Hobart Premax models utilize hot steam for additional benefits:

• Achieve the best results with only 0.8 liters of fresh water in the rinse.
• Reduce water and detergent consumption by up to 60%.

Shorter cycle times increase productivity. For the Premax FP, the shortest cycle time is 80 seconds, increasing machine capacity by up to 13% (45 racks/h).

Senso-Active Resource Management

This feature ensures responsible water consumption by monitoring water quality and adapting usage accordingly. Water consumption remains low for smaller soil loads and increases for heavier soiling.

Reduced Operating Costs

Innovative resource management significantly reduces operating costs.

Your Benefits

• Reliable wash results even with high levels of soil.
• The dishwasher corrects operating errors.
• Consistent regeneration of the wash solution with sufficient fresh water.
• Complete pump-out and refill are no longer necessary.

2in1 Double Rack System

Double the wash volume at half the costs. This system increases dishwasher capacity by allowing two racks to be washed simultaneously, with the top rack placed on a pull-out rack carrier.

Key Data:

• The top rack accommodates plates with a maximum diameter of 250 mm.
• The bottom rack holds cups, glasses, and small bowls up to 110 mm in height.

For You This Means: Optimum use of dishwasher capacity can reduce consumption of water, energy, and chemicals by up to 50% compared to conventional usage.

Optimal Wash Result

Top-Dry Drying (Premax Line Exclusive)

Achieve the optimal drying result. Drying wet wash ware is laborious. TOP-DRY drying converts humid air into hot drying air using a hydro-thermal energy storage system.

Your Benefits in Short:

• Moisture is no longer deposited onto the wash ware.
• Tableware and glasses do not need to be dried and polished by hand.
• The room climate is more comfortable as 90% less moisture is generated.
• In peak times, the drying process can be interrupted at any time.

As the system uses humid air from the wash chamber, no additional energy consumption is needed.

Permanent Wash Programme

Adapt the wash time to the level of soil. Instead of repeating standard programs for heavily soiled ware, you can increase the washing time up to 20 minutes. The program can be interrupted at any time.

The Benefits for You:

• No need to repeat the entire rinse cycle multiple times.
• No additional detergent dosing or rinsing is necessary.
• Benefit from saving time and operating costs.

Washing Solutions for Reusables

Clean cups, bowls, and bottles easily and hygienically with integrated TOP-DRY drying and matched accessories.

Starch-Removal Wash Programme

Achieve smooth, clean plates. This program removes starch traces left by items like rice, potatoes, and pasta, which can make tableware feel rough, look matte, and unhygienic. The starch-removal program ensures plates feel smooth and clean, eliminating time-consuming manual handling and aggressive cleaning solutions.

Optimal Wash Result

Genius-X² Fine Filter System

Constantly keeps the wash solution clean. This enhanced system cleans soiled water in three steps, reducing detergent consumption by up to 35%. The tank stays clean as coarse soil is collected in the strainer basket. Fine soil is discharged automatically. The system cleans itself during pump-out, eliminating manual cleaning.

Reverse Osmosis

Removes water stains before they appear. Unsightly stains on glasses, plates, or knife blades are caused by minerals in water. The optional Reverse Osmosis RO-S system prevents these stains, eliminating the need for polishing and preventing hygienic risks associated with manual polishing. Dishes and glasses leave the machine looking clean and sparkling.

Important Note: The free-standing RO-S is available for all undercounter models.

Self-Cleaning Wash System

No more clogged nozzles. The combined wash and rinse system features a self-cleaning mechanism for the wash arms during each wash cycle. When the program starts, wash water floods the wash arm, flushing out soil. An internal ball closes the cleaning valve, allowing water to be distributed through the nozzles.

Interlocked Strainer

Checks whether the tank cover strainer and fine filter are correctly inserted. If not positioned properly, the control signals an alarm, and the washing cycle cannot continue until it is corrected. This protects the pump, reduces detergent consumption and operating costs, and keeps soil at bay.

Wide-Angle Nozzles

Ensures cleanliness in every corner. These nozzles have a special shape designed by Hobart to cover a larger area more accurately, improving the wash result, especially in corners.

Easy Handling

Vapostop² (Premax Line Exclusive)

Puts an end to clouds of steam. The innovative VAPOSTOP² system uses a ventilation system to extract hot 60°C waste steam from the machine, preventing it from escaping.

A Brief Overview of the Advantages:

• Removing wash ware is more pleasant for staff.
• Customers at the bar are not disturbed by escaping steam.
• Wooden bar tops and kitchen cabinets are protected.
• 90% less steam escapes into the room.

VisiOtronic-Touch Control

Simple operation for everyone. Single-button control combined with a color touchscreen makes operation easy. The VisiOtronic-Touch control simplifies machine use and displays all important information using text and symbols.

Your Benefits:

• Easy selection of programs.
• Easy settings.
• All important information can be viewed at a glance.

Hygiene Programme

Eliminates germs and bacteria. Limescale and soil particles can build up inside the machine. The hygiene program targets these issues. Alerts on the display indicate when to use the program, requiring a hygiene tab. Benefits include fast removal of limescale, cleaning of soil residue, and a fresh smell.

Refill Signal

Simple and efficient level control. The refill signal system monitors external and integrated chemical containers, providing timely notifications for detergent and rinse aid refills.

Automatic Self-Cleaning Programme

Ensures a clean interior after every washing day. After each day's use, the self-cleaning program automatically runs, using fresh water to remove soil residues from the machine's interior.

Clip-in Wash and Rinse System

Make cleaning the machine as simple as possible. The wash and rinse system can be removed and reinserted in one step using the Clip-in system.

Integrated Chemical Containers

Save space and easily top up hygiene products. Integrated containers for rinse aid and detergent can be installed in the machine, with large openings for easy refilling without spillage.

Soft-Start Wash Pump

For a quiet start to the wash. In environments near customers, the Soft-Start wash pump ensures a quiet, soft start to the washing cycle.

Integrated Water Softener

Protects against calcification and increases service life. This optional system removes minerals from water that cause hardness, preventing limescale deposits that lead to increased cycle times, burnt-out heating elements, and unsatisfactory wash results.

USB Interface

For simple data documentation. Temperature, fault messages, and selected programs are documented for monitoring. The VisiOtronic-Touch control handles this task. Operational and consumption data can be conveniently exported via the USB interface to an external storage device.

Reliability & Flexibility

XL Wash Chamber

More space for increased performance. The Profi FXL machine allows effortless washing of large items, such as trays, baking sheets, and EN containers, up to 600 x 400 mm.

Smooth Counterbalanced Door

Soft, silent opening and closing. Gas-filled shock absorbers protect wash ware and prevent wear of the door suspension. Flat rack guides on the inside of the door facilitate easy loading and unloading.
