Product Overview
The Washtech AL is the professional-grade pass-through dishwasher in the Washtech high performance range — the step up from the XL with touchscreen controls, assured rinse booster pump and thermal and acoustic insulation. Like the XL it delivers a 40 second complete cycle and 1,400 plates per hour, but adds the same professional touchscreen control system found on the Washtech M2 and UD, remotely mountable for operator convenience. Built for high-volume commercial kitchens that demand both performance and professional-level control.
Best for: High-volume restaurants, hotels, hospitals, aged care facilities and event catering operations that need maximum throughput combined with professional controls, service diagnostics and superior wash quality.
How the Washtech AL cleans
The AL uses an exclusive fan jet wash system with a 2.5 kW wash pump recirculating water at 800 litres per minute through upper and lower stainless steel wash and rinse arms. The assured rinse booster pump ensures a consistent rinse at 82°C regardless of incoming mains pressure — critical for high-volume operations where rinse quality must be guaranteed across every cycle. A 316 grade stainless steel rinse tank with double filtration and scrap trays keeps wash water clean throughout service. The machine starts automatically on hood closure and triple cycle selection of 40, 60 and 90 seconds allows operators to match the cycle to the load.
The AL uses the same touchscreen control panel as the Washtech M2 and UD, with digital diagnostics and fault alerts. The control panel can be remotely mounted for operator convenience. For a full explanation of how Washtech controls work across the range, see our Washtech controls guide.

ALC — condenser version
The ALC is the condenser version of the AL at $13,470 plus GST. It features a built-in heat condenser that captures steam from the wash cycle, eliminating the need for a ventilation hood. This makes it suitable for installations where fitting an exhaust hood is not possible. Contact Sean to discuss the ALC option for your venue.
AL vs XL — what is the difference?
Both machines deliver identical throughput — 40 second cycles and 1,400 plates per hour — but the AL is the professional version. The AL adds the touchscreen control panel with remote mounting capability, an assured rinse booster pump for guaranteed rinse performance, and thermal and acoustic insulation for a quieter and more comfortable kitchen environment. The XL uses PCB push-button controls and a water pressure rinse without a booster pump. If your venue demands professional-level control and wash reliability, the AL is the right choice.
