Cutlery polisher FRUCOSOL FMC-500

A degreaser machine heats a tank of water and biodegradable detergent to loosen baked-on carbon and stubborn grease from catering tools, grills, trays and filters. The heat softens the residue while the detergent breaks the bond between the soil and the metal, allowing the operator to lift it away without scrubbing.

The FRUCOSOL Degreaser Machine 500 fills the 110 L tank with water, adds the detergent and brings the solution to 75 °C. Once the temperature is reached, the operator lowers the tools into the tank and leaves them submerged for the time needed. After soaking, the tools are lifted out and rinsed under a tap to remove any remaining detergent and loosened soil.

The unit is built as a freestanding stainless-steel cabinet with a hinged lid. Inside, a heating element maintains the set temperature, and the 750 mm worktop provides space for tools before and after cleaning. The machine runs on a 230 V or 110 V single-phase supply, making it suitable for standard kitchen circuits.

Controls consist of a power switch and a temperature indicator. The 0.7 kW power rating keeps the electrical load low while still heating the tank quickly. The 60 kg weight allows the unit to be moved with a trolley, and the 750 × 480 × 810 mm footprint fits against a wall or between worktops in a wash-up area.

Cleaning the machine involves draining the tank, wiping the interior with a cloth and refilling with fresh water and detergent. The biodegradable detergent is safe for kitchen use and does not require special disposal.

The catalogue places the FMC-500 in the cleaning and hygiene section for professional catering equipment.
