Product Description
The Maidaid Evolution 3135 WS is a 500mm basket pass through dishwasher built for continuous commercial use. It accepts a standard 500 x 500mm rack and runs on three-phase power, positioning it firmly in the mid-to-high volume segment of the pass through market. The integrated water softener and drain pump are both supplied as standard, making this a more complete out-of-the-box solution than many comparable machines at this level.
In a working kitchen environment, pass through dishwashers earn their keep during sustained service — not just when the pace is manageable. The 3135 WS is designed with that in mind. The triple wash and rinse arm configuration, combined with a powerful boiler element, supports rapid recovery between cycles so throughput does not drop off as service continues. The moulded wash tank and triple filtration system help maintain wash quality across a full service without constant manual intervention, and the automatic end-of-service clean cycle reduces the burden on kitchen staff at close-down.
From an operational standpoint, this machine offers a number of genuine day-to-day advantages:
- Internal water softener protects the machine and maintains wash quality in hard water areas without a separate external unit
- Drain pump means the machine is not reliant on a gravity drain, giving more flexibility over installation position
- Dual flow wash pump design supports wash efficiency while managing power consumption
- Selectable cycle programmes allow operators to match wash times to the type of load and pace of service
- Double-skinned hood and body construction reduces heat output and noise in the kitchen
Installation requires a three-phase electrical supply, which should be confirmed before ordering. A break tank is supplied as standard. The internal water softener removes the need for an external softener in most cases, though sites with exceptionally hard water should discuss softener settings with an engineer at commissioning. Adequate infeed and outfeed tabling space is required and is not included — this should be planned as part of the installation. The machine's footprint suits medium to large professional kitchens; smaller operations with lighter dishwashing volumes may find a hood or undercounter machine more proportionate to their needs.
The 3135 WS is well suited to hotel kitchens, contract catering operations, staff restaurants, and busy pub or restaurant kitchens where consistent throughput across a full service is a priority. The inclusion of the softener and drain pump makes it particularly practical for sites where adding external ancillary equipment is inconvenient or where hard water is a known issue. For very high-volume operations running multiple sittings or continuous service, a heavier-duty model with a larger capacity may be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this machine is the right fit for your service volume, water supply, or kitchen layout, our team is happy to talk it through before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- As a 500mm basket pass through machine, the 3135 WS is suited to mid-to-high volume operations — typically restaurants, hotel kitchens, or staff canteens running full services. Actual throughput will depend on cycle selection and how efficiently the machine is loaded and unloaded, so it is worth discussing your specific cover numbers with us if you are close to the boundary between machine categories.
- In most cases, yes. The integrated softener is designed to handle the water hardness conditions found in the majority of UK sites, and the expanded range of hardness settings gives engineers flexibility at commissioning. For sites with particularly severe hard water, it is worth discussing the local water profile with your installation engineer to confirm the softener will be set correctly for your supply.
- A gravity drain machine relies on the drain outlet being positioned below the machine's drain level, which can restrict where it can be sited in a kitchen. With a drain pump, the machine can discharge to a drain point that is level with or above the machine, offering more flexibility in kitchen layouts where the drainage arrangement is not ideal. It is still important to plan the drainage route carefully during installation.
