Asber Tech Line Underbench Glass/Dishwasher - GE-400BDD

The Asber Tech Line GE-400BDD is an underbench glass and dishwasher rated at 30 baskets an hour across three cycles of 90, 120 and 180 seconds. It carries a thermostop function — which holds the rinse until the boiler is genuinely at temperature, so the final rinse actually sanitises rather than merely wetting the glass — plus a built-in drain pump, rinse aid and detergent dispensers and an anti-backflow valve. It needs a 15 A supply.

Why operators choose the GE-400BDD

• Thermostop function — holds the rinse until the boiler reaches temperature, so every cycle rinses at 85C instead of whenever the timer says — the difference between a wash and a sanitising wash
• 30 baskets per hour across three cycles — 90, 120 or 180 seconds, so you can run glasses fast and plates properly on the same machine
• Built-in drain pump — pumps the waste out rather than relying on gravity, which is what makes an underbench install possible where the waste is not below the machine
• Rinse aid and detergent dispensers built in — both chemicals dosed by the machine, so results do not depend on someone measuring
• Upper and lower wash and rinse arms — water hits from both directions, so tall glasses and plates both come out clean
• Anti-backflow valve and dual safety thermostats — backflow protection on the water supply and independent thermostats in both the tank and the boiler
• Soft washing start — ramps the wash up rather than starting at full pressure, which is easier on glassware
• Supplied with two 400 x 400 mm baskets, a dish bracket and a cutlery basket — ready to run rather than needing accessories specified separately

Specifications

Venue suitability

The GE-400BDD suits bars, cafes, clubs, restaurants and function rooms washing glassware at volume under the counter, and its longer 180-second cycle means it doubles as a light dishwasher. At 470 mm wide it fits a standard underbench cavity; confirm the 15 A supply and the 270 mm door clearance before install.

Installation & delivery

It needs a 15 A outlet, not a standard 10 A one — a 15 A plug has a larger earth pin and will not fit a normal socket, so confirm a 15 A circuit is available or budget for an electrician to add one. It needs a water supply, a waste connection and the 270 mm door clearance in front to load a basket. The built-in drain pump means the waste does not have to sit below the machine. It is WaterMark certified, which is what allows a compliant plumbed installation in Australian commercial premises — have a licensed plumber make the connections. Dispatched from our Sydney HQ with partner warehouses in Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth for faster delivery Australia-wide. Backed by a 2-year parts and labour warranty — see our warranty information page for full terms.

Frequently asked questions

Q: What does the thermostop function actually do? A: It holds the rinse cycle until the boiler has genuinely reached temperature, rather than rinsing when the timer says so. That is what guarantees the 85C sanitising rinse on every cycle instead of only when the machine has had time to recover.

Q: Will it run from a normal power point? A: No. At 3.05kW it needs a 15A outlet. A 15A plug has a larger earth pin and will not fit a standard 10A socket, so confirm a 15A circuit or budget for an electrician.

Q: What is supplied with the machine? A: Two 400 x 400mm baskets, one dish bracket and one cutlery basket.

Q: Can it wash plates as well as glasses? A: Yes. The 180-second cycle and the supplied dish bracket suit plates, while the 90-second cycle handles glassware quickly. Output is 30 baskets an hour.

Q: Is it certified for installation in Australia? A: Yes. It is a WaterMark certified product, which is what allows a compliant plumbed installation in Australian commercial premises. Use a licensed plumber for the connections.

Q: What warranty applies? A: Two years parts and labour.
