Electrolux Professional Dishwasher Zone Module 535138 – Medium hot air blower zone without door for Dual Rinse Rack Type dishwasher

Four point four kilowatts dedicated to drying, in a 560 mm wide body: the 535138 is the medium hot air blower zone without door for Electrolux dual rinse rack type dishwashers. At 1130 mm high and 795 mm deep it is dimensioned to align with the main rack machine while adding a compact length of forced hot air where the project needs dry ware at the end of the line.

On a ship, the decision to add a hot air blower zone is less about marketing claims and more about what lands in the scullery and service areas. Racks leaving the washer still carrying water push moisture into the galley and store, load the HVAC plant and slow turn-round when items have to be hand dried. A dedicated 4.4 kW blower stage after the final rinse gives predictable drying performance regardless of ambient air movement in a confined, mechanically ventilated room. Because the module runs on 440 V/3 ph/50/60 Hz, it fits directly into the vessel’s typical three-phase distribution without special transformers.

The footprint of 560 x 795 mm allows this zone to be inserted in a straight rack conveyor layout without a large increase in overall line length. At 1130 mm body height it matches the working level of the associated machine, so racks travel through without steps that can catch or spill. The weight is 52 kg net, rising to 66 kg gross for shipping, which informs how it is handled at the yard and what lifting or access arrangements are needed to bring it aboard and into the galley. Shipping dimensions of 920 x 610 x 1310 mm, with a quoted shipping volume of 0.74 m³, help confirm whether it can pass through existing doors and hatches without uncrating.

Noise is quoted below 62 dBA. In a space already carrying fan noise from ventilation, warewash pumps and extract, that figure matters; it keeps the drying stage from becoming the dominant sound source on the wash-up side.

Build and control

• IP25 rated against water ingress
• Rounded internal corners for cleaning

This is the right zone module where the rack type line has to deliver dishes, glasses or trays dry enough to go straight to use or storage, and where the project can allocate 4.4 kW of installed power and 560 mm of deck length to that outcome. It is not the right choice for a very small galley running only occasional wash-up, where a simpler line without a dedicated blower stage may cover the need with less equipment complexity.
