Section 2

Installation

This manual is designed as a guide to the installation and maintenance of the 35-pound, 50-pound, and 85-pound capacity freestanding washer-extractors.

The manuals, installation instructions, and wiring diagrams which accompany the machine have been included with the machine at no charge. Additional copies are available at a nominal charge.

Note: All information, illustrations, and specifications contained in this manual are based on the latest product information available at the time of printing. We reserve the right to make changes at any time without notice.

Machine Overview

The design of the washer-extractor emphasizes performance and long service life. The cylinder, shell, and main body panels are fabricated of stainless steel.

The washer-extractor features the WE-6 microcomputer which offers 39 preprogrammed cycles and programming versatility in the field.

The AC inverter drive control provides programmable motor speeds using a single motor. This makes it possible to achieve ultra-high extract speeds.

The cylinder is supported by roller bearings housed inside a trunnion.

The cylinder is constructed with four lifters or ribs that lift the laundry from the bath solution when the cylinder rotates at slow speed and then allow it to tumble back into t he bath. This mechanical action accomplishes the cleaning function. The cylinder is perforated, allowing the water to drain from within during the was h and extract steps.

The supply dispenser is located on the upper left side of the control panel. The supply dispenser compartments are accessed by unlatching the supply dispenser cover door. These compartments accept powder or liquid supplies. Each compartment is controlled independently by the WE-6 computer.

Electrical controls for the washer-extractor are housed in separate enclosures. The front control module is located just behind the keypad and control panel. It houses the WE-6 computer board, a fuse/relay board, and other functional electrical components. The rear control module houses the AC inverter drive and its components.

A door-lock system prevents opening of the door when water is in the washer-extractor. It also prevents operation of the w asher-ex tractor when the door is open.

F232058

After the anchor bolts are installed and the concrete has cured, proceed as follows:

1. Place the washer-extractor adjacent to the foundation. Do not attempt to move it by pushing on the sides. Always insert a pry bar or other device under the bottom of the frame of the washer-extractor to move it.

5. Fill the spaces between the washerextractor base and floor with a good quality non-shrinking machinery grout to ensure a stable installation. See Figure 9 for grouting the 35-pound capacity model. See Figure 10 for grouting the 50-pound capacity model. See Figure 11 for grouting the 85-pound capacity model.

Drain Connection

A drain system of adequate capacity is essential to washer-extractor performance. Ideally, the water should empty through a vented pipe directly into a sump or floor drain. Figures 13 and 14 show drain line and drain trough configurations.

Before any deviation from specified installation procedures is attempted, the customer or installer should contact the distributor.

Increasing the drain hose length, installing elbows, or causing bends will decrease drain flow rate and increase drain times, impairing washer-extractor performance.

A flexible connection must be made to a vented drain system to prevent an air lock and to prevent siphoning. If proper drain size is not available or practical, a surge tank is required. A surge tank in conjunction with a sump pump should be used when gravity drainage is not possible, such as in below-ground-level installations.

Connections should be supplied by a hot and a cold water line of at least the sizes shown in the Water Supply Line Sizing table. Installation of additional machines will require proportionately larger water lines. See table.

To connect water service to machine with rubber hoses, use the following procedure:

1. Before installing hoses, flush the water system for at least two minutes.

2. Check filters in the washer-extractor’s

inlet hoses for proper fit and cleanliness before connecting.

3. Hang the hoses in a large loop; do not allow them to kink.

If additional hose lengths are needed, use flexible hoses with screen filters. Each hose should have a screen filter installed to keep rust and other foreign particles out of the water inlet valves.

Pressure of 30 – 85 psi (2 – 5.7 bar) provides best performance. Although the washerextractor will function properly at lower pressures, increased fill times will occur.

Suitable air cushions should be installed in supply lines to prevent “hammering.” If the water pressure is above 60 psi, flexible copper tubing should be used in place of rubber hoses.

WARNING

Electrical Installation

The AC inverter drive requires a clean power supply free from voltage spikes and surges. A voltage monitor should be used to check

incoming power. The customer’s local power company may provide such a monitor.

If input voltage measures above 230V for a 200V drive or above 440V for a 400V drive, ask the power company to lower the voltage. As an alternative, a step-down transformer kit is available from the distributor. Voltages above 250V and 490V require additional measures. Contact the distributor or the manufacturer for assistance.

WARNING

Never touch terminals or components of the AC inverter drive unless power is

disconnected and the “CHARGE” indicator LED is off. The AC inverter drive retains potentially deadly vol tage for some time after the power is disconnected. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the AC inverter dr ive. Tampering with th e drive will void the warranty.

SW009

DANGER

When controlling the AC inverter drive with

a parameter unit, the machine ’s computer and its safety features are bypassed. This would allow the basket to rotate at high speeds with the door open. When using a parameter unit to control the AC inverter drive, a large sign should be placed on the front of the machine warning people of the imminent danger.

SW003

F232058

Installation

The AC drive provides overload protection for the drive motor. However, a separate threephase circuit breaker must be installed for complete electrical overload protection. This prevents damage to the m otor by disconnecting all legs if one should be lost accidentally. Check the data plate on the back of the washerextractor or consult the Electrical Specifications chart in this subsection for circuit breaker requirements.

Note: Do NOT use fuses in place of a circuit breaker.

CAUTION

Do not use a phase adder on any variablespeed machine.

SW037

Use wire sizes indicated in the Electrical Specifications chart for runs up to 50 feet. Use next larger size for runs of 50 to 100 feet. Use 2 sizes larger for runs greater than 100 feet.

For personal safety and for proper operation, the washer-extractor must be grounded in accordance with state and local codes. If such codes are not available, grounding must conform with the National Electric Code, article 250-95. The ground connection must be made to a proven earth ground, not to conduit or water pipes.

If a delta supply system is used, the high leg may be connected to L1, L2, or L3 on the cabinet freestanding models as all machines are equipped with control transformers.

The washer-extractor should be connected to an individual branch circuit not shared with lighting or other equipment.

The connection should be shielded in a liquidtight or approved flexible conduit with proper conductors of correct size installed in accordance with the National Electric Code or other applicable codes. The connection must be made by a qualified electrician using the wiring diagram provided with the washerextractor, or according to accepted European standards for CE-approved equipment.
