The Electrolux Professional WB6-20, WB6-27 and WB6-35 Barrier Washers are designed for commercial laundries where hygiene control and separation between soiled and clean areas are essential. With maximum capacities of 20kg, 27kg and 35kg, the range gives facilities flexibility to match machine size to their throughput requirements.
All three models feature Compass Pro® controls, automatic drum positioning and locking, large inner drum doors and a Watchdog system to help reduce the risk of cross contamination. High extraction force and Power Balance also support efficient dewatering and reduced drying requirements.
The WB6 range can be connected to OnE Laundry for remote monitoring and process management, with additional options including Efficient Dosing, Integrated Savings, a double display and automatic inner drum door opening.
Available in electric, steam or gas-heated configurations, the WB6-20, WB6-27 and WB6-35 provide a practical barrier laundry solution for facilities requiring controlled workflows, strong hygiene performance and dependable productivity.

What capacities are available in the WB6 range?
The WB6 range comes in three sizes: WB6-20 (20kg/44lb), WB6-27 (27kg/60lb), and WB6-35 (35kg/77lb), all sharing a 770mm drum diameter and 910rpm extraction speed.
How does the WB6 prevent cross-contamination?
As a barrier washer, the WB6 loads from a “dirty” side and unloads from a separate “clean” side, using a watchdog system to prevent contaminated items from crossing over. Its flat design also makes cleaning easier and helps prevent bacteria propagation.
What heating options are available?
Each model offers electric, steam, or gas heating alternatives, with heating power scaling by size, for example, electric heating ranges from 13.5kW on the WB6-20 up to 27kW on the WB6-35, while gas heating is 40kW across the range.
How does the Compass Pro controller help with daily operation?
It offers 40 factory wash programs plus 15 customisable programs, all optimised to minimise water, energy and detergent use, with a user-friendly interface designed for effortless operation.
How does the WB6 save on water and energy?
Programs are optimised for the lowest possible consumption, and Power Balance technology corrects load unbalance and adjusts extraction G-force in real time, maximising dewatering to reduce drying time and cost. Optional Integrated Savings can further adjust water levels to the actual linen weight.
How noisy is the WB6 during operation?
All three models have an airborne sound level of 72 dB(A), measured to ISO 60704.
Is professional installation required?
Yes. Installation involves water, steam or gas (depending on heating option), drainage, and electrical connections, with a recommended fuse rating of up to 3 x 50A on the largest model. We recommend a qualified technician to handle installation and ensure it complies with local codes of practice. Ask our team for a quote.
Can I monitor the washer remotely?
The WB6 range is connectable to OnE Laundry, Electrolux’s remote monitoring assistant for hygiene validation, process management and revenue management.
Where is the WB6 range suitable for?
With its infection-control design and range of capacities, the WB6 is well suited to hospitals, aged care facilities, and other healthcare laundries where strict separation of clean and dirty linen is essential.
