Choose the Sammic dishwasher that you need: optional features guide

In previous articles we presented Sammic’s Active and Ultra glass washers and dishwashers, explaining all the options available for each product and line. In this post we will present our complete guide to the added options available, what they entail and their availability for each specific model. 

DD: DETERGENT DISPENSER

Sammic glass washers and dishwashers are supplied, by default, without a detergent dispenser on the majority of markets. However, it is possible to purchase any model with an in-built detergent dispenser. 

Furthermore, the detergent dispenser kit for glass washers and dishwashers can be purchased separately at any time. 

B: PROACTIVE

The drain pump option is recommended when the drain is higher than the appliance’s outlet. This enables a better wash quality by facilitating water renewal in the tank. 

The PROACTIVE pack is available for all models. 

D: PROLIME

Option D, or PROLIME, means that the appliance has a manual descaler installed. This option is recommended in hard water areas. The descaler improves the finish quality, particularly in the case of glass, while also protecting the dishwasher from limescale build-up. 

The alternative to this feature is the installation of an external descaler or osmotiser, also available in our catalogue, although more space is necessary in this case. 

The manual descaler option is available for all ULTRA glass washers and for the UX-50MP dishwasher. 

BD: GLASS CARE

The BD or GLASS CARE package combines the above two options, also adding a peristaltic rinse aid dispenser. Therefore, it includes a drain pump with a non-return valve, an in-built manual descaler and a peristaltic rinse aid dispenser. 

Thanks to the fact that the peristaltic rinse aid dispenser is activated electrically according to the parameters established, rather than being activated by the mains pressure, it dispenses an exact dose of rinse aid. This allows better control of the flow of rinse aid and prevents the dispenser from being affected by fluctuations in the mains, improving its service life and enabling a reduced use of chemicals.              

BC: HYGIENE

The HYGIENE option includes a constant temperature rinsing system, a drain pump and a peristaltic rinse aid dispenser.

 

The constant temperature rinsing system guarantees that rinsing is carried out with constant water pressure at the established temperature, not only at the start of rinsing, but also during the whole cycle. This feature is particularly important in establishments where hygiene is paramount (hospitals, nurseries, laboratories). At the same time, it is also recommended for optimal results when washing glassware. The constant temperature rinsing system includes Break Tank, which prevents water from the appliance returning to the mains, giving the installation a hygiene and safety guarantee. 

The BC option is available for the UX-50 Multipower dishwasher and for ULTRA line UX-120. 

BCD: PERFORMANCE

The PERFORMANCE option includes all the features of the HYGIENE package in addition to an in-built automatic descaler. Therefore, besides being useful in establishments where hygiene is paramount, and for washing glassware, this option is recommended for establishments or areas with hard water. 

The automatic water softenerhas several advantages compared to the manual version. On one hand, the cycle is activated automatically according to the established water hardness. On the other, it is possible to continue to use the appliance while the descaler is in use. Finally, the automatic descaler is equipped with a salt detector that shows when it is necessary to add more salt.

Just like the BC-HYGIENE option, the BCD-Performance option is available for the UX-50 Multipower dishwasher and for ULTRA line UX-120 hood-type model.

BV: HRS SYSTEM

Available for ULTRA line UX-120 dishwasher, the BV or HRS package includes a steam condenser, drain pump and peristaltic rinse aid dispenser. 

This option is recommended when the appliance is used extensively, for poorly ventilated areas and for areas with limited space. 

BCV: HRS HYGIENE

The BCV or HRS HYGIENE option includes all the features of the BV package described in the previous paragraph, as well as a constant temperature rinsing system, making the appliance useful in establishments where hygiene is paramount, and for washing glassware. 

BCDV: HRS PERFORMANCE

In this option, all the features of the BCV package are combined with an in-built automatic descaler. 

Just like the BV and BCV options, the HRS PERFORMANCE or BCDV option is available for hood-type, ULTRA line UX-120 dishwasher.

S: ISO

The double wall or thermoacoustic insulation option is available for all ULTRA models, except for the UX-50 Lite / UX-100 models. 

All front-loading glass washers and dishwashers have a double wall structure. For dome models, not only does the bottom part have a double wall, but also the dome. 

Thanks to this structure, the noise emitted by the appliance is reduced, retaining residual heat, saving energy and obtaining the improved thermal performance of the appliance.
