Sink Stalgast 982334040

A built-in washbasin with an integrated time switch automates water flow for precise handwashing routines in professional kitchens. The basin fills with water when the tap is opened, and the time switch controls how long the water runs before shutting off automatically. This prevents waste and ensures consistent hygiene without relying on manual operation, making it suitable for high-turnover environments where staff may be distracted or under pressure.

The operator presses the time switch to start the water flow, which continues for the preset duration. Once the cycle completes, the tap closes, and the basin can be used for washing. The time switch eliminates the need to monitor the tap continuously, allowing kitchen staff to focus on other tasks while maintaining hygiene standards.

Constructed from stainless steel, the basin resists corrosion and withstands frequent cleaning with commercial detergents. Its compact dimensions of 400 mm width, 500 mm depth, and 240 mm height allow it to fit into standard worktop cut-outs, making it suitable for tight kitchen layouts where space is limited.

The time switch is the primary control, setting the duration of water flow. This feature simplifies compliance with hygiene protocols, as it removes variability in washing times caused by human oversight.

The basin's footprint of 400x500 mm determines the worktop space it occupies, while its 240 mm height ensures comfortable use without requiring excessive bending. The stainless steel construction supports daily sanitisation, as it does not absorb odours or harbour bacteria.

Cleaning involves wiping the basin and time switch with a damp cloth and approved cleaning agents to remove grease and food residues. The smooth stainless steel surface allows for quick drying and prevents build-up of grime.

This model is designed for built-in installation, integrating seamlessly with existing worktops in professional kitchens.
