WASHERS, DRYERS & IRONERS

• Continental Control Panel Options

Pro-Series Washer-Extractors
18- to 255-pound capacities
Pro-Series Washers are soft-mount machines that feature a unique dual frame design and Auto-Balance System. Pro-Series machines reach G-force extraction speeds almost four times greater than many standard "hard-mount" washers. In doing so, resulting dry time is typically cut by up to 40 percent over hard-mount machines - saving time, labor and gas consumption. Pro-Series' freestanding design eliminates the "hard-to-mount" requirement of bolting the machines onto a re-bar reinforced concrete foundation. The highly programmable control offers a programming system with 79 program selections, including 20 pre-programmed options and 59 user-programmable options. Water temperature, fill levels, extract speeds, cycle times, wash rotation and automated cycle advance are among the programmable variables. A delayed start feature and automatic service diagnostics are also built into the PM Control.

Aurora Washer-Extractor
20-pound capacity frontload
The Energy Star-rated Aurora is a perfect solution for on-premise laundries needing a small-capacity machine that packs power and performance. Designed for energy efficiency, improved wash quality and high-extract speeds, this soft-mount washer-extractor fits into the same space as most top-load machines, but offers far greater performance and efficiency. Its soft-mount design and durable construction allow high-speed extraction of 300 G-force. As a result, the Aurora can ultimately cut dry time by up to 50 percent over some top-load washers - improving productivity and slashing gas usage. In California, many local utility companies offer rebates for purchase of Auroras!

L-Series Hard-Mount Washer-Extractors
18 to 125-pound capacities
These durable, proven washer-extractors bring energy efficiency, ease-of-use and programmability to on-premise laundries. Designed to withstand the rigors of constant use, L-Series washer-extractors feature corrosion-resistant AISI-304 stainless steel inner and outer drums and front, side and top panels. The advanced drive system offers optimum wash performance and heightened energy efficiency. No energy is wasted during start-up or operation.

• Unique Features

Pro-Series Drying Tumblers
Designed to perfectly complement the quality and efficiency of Pro-Series Washer-Extractors, Pro-Series Drying Tumblers feature a design that contributes to increased linen and machine life, ease of use and heightened safety. The tumblers are built to handle the rigors of constant use helping on-premise laundries make the most of their investment. A highly polished backplate works to extend linen life by reducing friction and resulting fabric damage between your laundry and the back of the tumbler. And, a Standard Fire Suppression System means cylinder fires are quickly extinguished. An advanced programmable control offers 41 programmable cycles and sophisticated diagnostics system.

E-Series Drying Tumblers
25- to 85-pound capacity single pocket and 40-pound capacity stack
Continental E-Series Drying Tumblers bring heightened energy-efficiency, flexibility, safety, durability and performance to on-premise laundries. Designed to combat rising utility costs, E-Series are up to 30 percent more efficient than dryers of similar capacity. The utilization of axial airflow technology allows the tumblers to occupy less space while offering improved performance. Available in gas, electric or steam heat, E-Series Drying Tumblers are manufactured in 25- to 85-pound capacity single pocket models and a 40-pound capacity stacked model.

Pro-Series Heated-Roll Flatwork Ironers
Easy to use and maintain, Continental Pro-Series Flatwork ironers feature heavy-duty construction, a no-wax design and unique features meant to streamline production, reduce labor and ensure machine longevity. The steam-, electric- or gas-heated ironers are available in multiple finishing widths with 18-, 13- or 20-inch diameter rolls. The exclusive Kinematic Pressure system improves finishing results and cuts processing time by applying 3.5 times more force to linens than stretch ironers. The ironer's AutoSpeed adjusts ironing speed and temperature to properly dry and finish linens straight from the washer. In doing so, the system can cut 20-40 minutes off processing time!

• Unique Features

Pro-Series Heated-Chest Flatwork Ironers
Continental's modular, chest-heated flatwork ironers - in steam or oil - also offer unmatched durability and programmability. Developed with your demanding customers in mind, Continental's F32, in operating widths of 118, 130 and 138 inches, brings flexibility and the highest quality finishing results to high-volume industrial laundries. The ironer's AutoSpeed system automatically adjusts ironing speed based on moisture content and fabric type so linens can be fed straight from the washer through the ironer!
