Miele PFD 404 U MasterLine Hygiene 24 Inch Undercounter Commercial Dishwasher 208V 185F Final Rinse Fresh Water Stainless Steel
Miele PFD 404 U — 24" MasterLine Hygiene Undercounter Dishwasher, 208V
The Miele PFD 404 U is the Hygiene model of Miele's MasterLine range, built for kitchens where sanitation is documented and audited. Its hygiene programs finish with a 185°F (85°C) final rinse held for 4 minutes, and the program list adds SaniWash Plus to the standard SaniWash cycle. Like the PFD 401 U it runs a 6-minute Rapid cycle on hot fill and cleans up to 380 plates or 20 baskets per hour on two wash levels, but it adds AutoOpen drying, AutoClose, a code-protectable door lock, and an aerosol steam condenser. Rated for 5 to 40 cycles a day over a 28,000-cycle service life, this version runs on 208V / 60 Hz single phase, 30 A with a NEMA L6-30 twist-lock plug.
Key Features of the PFD 404 U
The PFD 404 U shares the PFD 401 U's wash cabinet, baskets, and 5.4 kW heater, and adds the high-temperature rinse, drying, and door control that healthcare and care settings ask for.
185°F Hygiene Final Rinse
Hygiene programs finish with a final rinse at 185°F (85°C) held for 4 minutes; SaniWash runs 24 minutes and SaniWash Plus 33 minutes on hot fill.
AutoOpen Drying & Steam Condenser
AutoOpen assisted drying opens the door at the end of the cycle, while the aerosol steam condenser limits the steam released into the room when it does.
AutoClose & Code-Protected Lock
AutoClose pulls the door shut once it is pushed near closed, and the door lock can be code-protected so residents, patients, or children cannot open it mid-cycle.
6-Minute Cycles, 380 Plates/hr
Three spray arms clean two full wash levels; the Rapid program runs in 6 minutes on hot fill, for up to 380 plates or 20 baskets per hour.
Fresh Water & Filter Monitoring
Each cycle uses about 2.1 gallons of fresh water instead of a recirculated tank, with a highly effective filter system, filter monitoring, and an integrated softener for water up to 62.6 gpg.
M Touch Flex, Wi-Fi & 45 dB(A)
Language-neutral touch controls with adjustable holding times and a 24-hour delay start, Wi-Fi connectivity, and quieter 45 dB(A) operation than the PFD 401 U.
