Pumps
Das Pumpenteil – bestehend aus Pumpengehäuse und Flanschlagerschild – ist nur durch Schnellverschlüsse mit dem Antrieb verbunden. So kann der Antrieb vom Pumpen teil getrennt werden, ohne elektrisch abgeklemmt werden zu müssen. Dies vereinfacht und beschleunigt den Reinigungsvorgang. Alle Teile der Baureihe PAB sind waschmaschinenfest
Would normally translate this as machine-washable but this doesn't make sense here. The pump in question is used in the printing industry, so I imagine regular cleaning would be necessary. Anyone know anything about cleaning pumps?

Washing machine approved/ Approved fit for use in washing machines
All PAB components have been approved for use in washing machines (in addition to whatever else they have been approved for use in)
Note from asker:
These are definitely pumps for the printing industry, not for use in domestic washing machines. |

Andrew Bramhall
: That would surely only apply to items being washed in it, e.g, delicates that may not be suitable for machine washing.

can be machine-cleaned
I think it is best to avoid "washing machine" as it is understood as a domestic appliance in English. I think it is an industrial cleaning machine here.
Note from asker:
I think this is probably what is meant, but an industrial cleaner that uses water. Still waiting on feedback from customer. |

Derek Ferrari-Frankland (X)
: It specifically says waschmaschine. This means washing and not cleaning. Sand blasting is also machine cleaning but I'm sure that is not intended here.

The same terms applies to components that can be washed by modern rotational and spray wash machines.

Discussion
Can't imagine what noise it would make in a machine though.
I would just go for 'machine washable' as the asker suggested.

Es gibt schon eine Übersetzung, die allerdings "All parts of the PAB models are washing machine-proof." verwendet.
