Product Description
The EAIS PBTL-B is a gravity-fed basket lowerator designed to hold a stack of dishwash baskets and automatically present the top basket at a consistent working height as each one is removed. Built from stainless steel throughout, it is a practical piece of warewashing infrastructure rather than a piece of active equipment — no power supply required, no moving parts beyond the spring-loaded platform mechanism.
In a busy warewashing area, the value of a lowerator becomes clear during peak service. Rather than reaching into a low trolley or stacking baskets loose on a surface, the operator always has a basket at hand at the correct height. This reduces unnecessary movement, supports a cleaner workflow at the wash station, and helps keep the surrounding area clear and safe. It is a simple piece of kit, but one that makes a genuine difference over the course of a long service.
- Stainless steel construction — durable and straightforward to clean
- Gravity-fed mechanism presents the top basket at working height automatically
- Reduces operator bending and unnecessary movement at the wash station
- Supports a tidier, more organised warewashing area during busy periods
- Suitable for use alongside standard commercial pass-through and undercounter dishwashers
The unit is designed for floor-level placement in the warewashing section. It is worth confirming that your existing dishwash baskets are compatible in terms of footprint before ordering, as baskets are not included. The PBTL-B has a rated maximum load, so consider the weight of a full stack before use — guidance applies where loads exceed a certain threshold. For very high-throughput operations running multiple dishwashers simultaneously, a higher-capacity lowerator or multiple units may be more practical.
This model suits most mid-sized commercial kitchens — restaurants, contract catering operations, and similar sites where a single dishwasher handles the bulk of warewashing. If your operation is smaller or larger in scale, it is worth discussing which configuration would work best for your specific workflow. The team are happy to talk through the options.

Frequently Asked Questions
- No — baskets are not included and need to be sourced separately. Before ordering, it is worth checking that your existing dishwash baskets are compatible in terms of footprint dimensions with this unit.
- No. The PBTL-B operates entirely on a gravity-fed spring mechanism, so there are no electrical or plumbing requirements. It simply needs a suitable floor position within your warewashing area.
- The PBTL-B is well suited to mid-sized operations with a single pass-through or undercounter dishwasher. Very high-throughput sites cycling baskets at pace across multiple machines may find a higher-capacity lowerator, or the use of multiple units, better matches their workflow — it is worth discussing your volume before specifying.
