Classeq C500WS Glasswasher with Integrated Water Softener 30A

The Classeq C500WS is an undercounter glasswasher designed for busy commercial bars, pubs, restaurants and hospitality venues. It is built in the UK and configured here for 30A single phase supply. The integrated water softener is factory-fitted rather than an add-on, making this a particularly practical choice for sites in medium to hard water areas where limescale build-up would otherwise shorten machine life and compromise wash quality over time.

In service, the C500WS is capable of washing up to 40 racks per hour — a throughput that holds up well across a full evening service. The machine operates on two selectable wash cycles, which keeps operation straightforward for bar staff without specialist training. Rinse booster and chemical dosing pumps work together to deliver consistently clean, spot-free results, which matters particularly in venues where glassware presentation is important. The double-skinned construction keeps operating noise at a reasonable level, a consideration in open-plan or customer-facing environments.

From a practical standpoint, the C500WS has been designed with day-to-day maintenance in mind:

• Click-in, click-out wash arms remove without tools for fast cleaning between services
• Moulded interior reduces crevices where residue can accumulate
• Bluetooth connectivity allows machine settings, user guides and performance data to be accessed via a smartphone app
• Integrated water softener protects internal components in hard water areas without requiring a separate external unit
• Made in the UK, with a two-year parts and labour warranty as standard

Installation requires a 30A single phase supply and a suitable water connection and drain. The footprint fits a standard 600mm undercounter bay, though access for servicing should be considered at the planning stage. If your site runs a very high-volume bar operation — festival catering, large event venues or high-turnover nightclubs — it is worth discussing whether a higher-capacity machine would be a better long-term fit.

The C500WS is well suited to pubs, hotel bars, restaurants and private members' clubs running a consistent glass service. It is particularly appropriate for sites in hard water regions where protecting machine longevity without the complexity of an external softener is a priority. For lower-volume requirements, smaller capacity alternatives are available in the Classeq range.

If you are unsure whether the C500WS is the right configuration for your water supply, electrical setup or service volume, the team are happy to talk it through before you order.
