This offer ends in:
This deck-mounted pre-rinse unit mounts to sink or prep table surfaces in commercial kitchens. It stands 1000mm tall with a swing faucet and spring-action gooseneck hose. Operators use it for rapid pre-rinsing of pots, pans, trays and utensils before washing.
Commercial Application
Pre-rinse units reduce water consumption and time spent on manual scrubbing in high-volume dishwashing operations. Staff direct the spray nozzle at baked-on food residue and grease before loading items into commercial warewashers. This reduces detergent use and extends machine service intervals.
During service changeover, kitchen porters rinse multiple loads in quick succession. The swing faucet rotates to cover adjacent sink compartments. Single inlet configuration allows connection to either hot or cold water supply depending on site plumbing.
Key Operational Advantages

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What grade of stainless steel is used in the construction?
A: The unit uses food-grade stainless steel suitable for commercial kitchen environments. Specific alloy grade depends on component: wetted parts typically use 304 grade for corrosion resistance.
Q: Can this unit handle constant use during peak service periods?
A: The ceramic cartridge valve and spring mechanism are rated for continuous commercial operation. Operators typically cycle the spray nozzle hundreds of times per shift without degradation.
Q: Does the swing faucet have a fixed arc or full rotation?
A: The faucet swings through an arc to service adjacent sink compartments. Rotation is limited by the single inlet water feed line. Most installations allow approximately 180-degree movement.
Q: What sink hole diameter is required for deck mounting?
A: Installation requires a single Ø22mm hole in the sink deck or prep table surface. Standard hole saws cut this diameter. The unit secures from beneath with a lock nut.
Q: Can the unit be converted between hot and cold water inlets?
A: The single G1/2 inlet accepts either hot or cold supply based on site requirements. No conversion is needed. Some operators connect to warm water for grease dissolution.
