The Classeq C400WS is a compact undercounter dishwasher built for commercial use, with an integrated water softener included as standard. It accepts a 400x400mm rack and is designed to handle steady continuous use across a service period — washing up to 40 racks per hour, which translates to a practical throughput of around 270 plates per hour depending on loading. This version is configured for 30A single phase supply. Classeq manufacture in the UK, and the C400 range is well established in smaller commercial kitchens where reliability and ease of operation matter.

In a working kitchen environment, the C400WS performs consistently across the three available wash cycles — light, standard, and intensive — allowing operators to match cycle selection to soil level rather than running everything on a single programme. The rinse booster pump supports clean, spot-free results, and the double-skinned construction helps keep noise levels manageable in open or semi-open kitchen layouts. Recovery between cycles is reliable enough to keep pace with steady covers without causing a backlog at the pass.

Practically, this machine has been designed with daily operation in mind:

  • Click-in, click-out wash arms make end-of-service cleaning straightforward without tools
  • Bluetooth connectivity allows access to user guides, settings, and performance data via a smartphone app
  • The integrated water softener protects internal components and wash quality in medium to hard water areas
  • Moulded interior surfaces reduce trapped debris and make routine cleaning quicker
  • Three wash cycle options give operators flexibility without adding complexity

The integrated water softener is a meaningful practical feature rather than an optional extra for kitchens outside soft-water areas. Hard water causes limescale build-up on wash arms, heating elements, and rinse nozzles over time, reducing wash quality and shortening machine lifespan. Having softening built in removes the need for a separate inline unit and simplifies the installation.

Installation requires a 30A single phase electrical supply, which should be confirmed with your electrician before ordering. The machine fits within a standard undercounter cabinet space, but access to plumbing connections at the rear and adequate drainage routing should be checked at the planning stage. It is not suitable for sites on three phase supply only — alternative configurations are available within the C400 range if your supply differs.

The C400WS is well suited to smaller operations — cafés, pub kitchens, small restaurants, and staff canteens — where a single undercounter machine can comfortably manage the covers without requiring a pass-through or hood-type unit. For higher-volume sites turning over significantly more covers per service, a larger capacity machine would be worth considering. For very low-volume environments such as a small office kitchen, this remains a sound choice but may represent more capacity than is needed.

If you are unsure whether the C400WS is the right fit for your setup — particularly around water hardness, supply configuration, or expected covers — the team is happy to talk it through before you commit to an order.

Frequently asked questions

Is the integrated water softener necessary, or can I add one separately?

For kitchens in medium to hard water areas, softening is important for maintaining wash quality and protecting the heating element and rinse nozzles from limescale over time. Having it built in is generally more convenient than fitting a separate inline softener, and it removes one variable from the installation. If you are in a genuinely soft water area, the softener causes no harm but may not be strictly necessary — it is worth checking your local water hardness before deciding.

What are the installation requirements for the C400WS 30A single phase?

The machine requires a dedicated 30A single phase electrical supply, so this should be confirmed with a qualified electrician before ordering if you are unsure of your available supply. You will also need a cold water feed, a chemical dosing connection for detergent and rinse aid, and a suitable gravity or pumped drain route. The unit fits within a standard undercounter space, but allow adequate clearance at the rear for pipework and connections.

How many covers can the C400WS realistically support per service?

At up to 40 racks per hour with a 400mm basket, the C400WS can sustain throughput across a steady service, and it is well matched to smaller restaurants, cafés, or pub kitchens typically turning over up to around 50 to 80 covers per service. For operations with significantly higher volumes, particularly where crockery and glassware turnaround is time-critical during a busy service, a higher-capacity pass-through machine may be a more practical fit.
