Some locales may require the base of the machine to be sealed at the floor.

Electrical Connections

WARNING:

Electrical and grounding connections must comply with the National Electrical Code
and/or Local Electrical Codes.

WARNING:

When working on the dishwasher, disconnect the electric service and place a tag at the
disconnect switch to indicate work is being done on that circuit.

1. A qualified electrician must compare the electrical power supply with the machine
electrical specifications stamped on the MACHINE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
PLATE located inside the top mounted control cabinet before connecting to the incoming
service at a fused disconnect switch.

NOTE:

U-H1 and U-HB models require a 208-240V/60Hz/lPH, 2-wire plus ground electrical supply.
U-LD model requires a 115V/60Hz/lPH, 2-wire plus ground electrical supply.

2. A knock-out is provided at the rear of the top mounted slide­electrical service connection. A fused disconnect switch or circuit breaker (supplied by

3. A manual shut-off valve (supplied by others) should be installed in supply line to allow for
servicing of the machine.The shut-off valve should be the same size or larger than the supply
line.

4. A "Y" line strainer (supplied by others) is recommended on the incoming water supply line as
close to machine as possible, but before the pressure regulating valve.

5. A 3/4" Pressure Regulating Valve (PRV),(supplied by others), should be installed on the
incoming water supply line if water flow pressure exceeds 138 kPa/20-22 PSI.

Drain Connections

1. Models U-Hl, U-HB, and U-LD are GRAVITY DRAIN machines equipped with a
1-1/4" hose connection point.

• Drain height for models U-Hl and U-HB must not exceed 4-1/2" above floor level.

• Drain height for model U-LD must not exceed 7-1/2" above floor level.

NOTE:

For drain heights in excess of those listed above, OPTIONAL drain

lift kits are available (See Options, Pg.8)

WARNING:

Connection of the machine to a drain line higher than the machine drain height will

prevent the machine from draining properly.

Refer to Figure 1 and 2 below for machine drain connection locations.

Chemical Connections

NOTE:

Consult a qualified chemical supplier/or your chemical needs.

Models U-H1 and U-HB

1. Labeled connection points (See Fig. 3) are provided inside the
control cabinet for chemical dispensing equipment (supplied by others)

between Wire #7 and Wire #2 .
(1 Amp Max Amperage Draw)

• Rinse aid signal 208-240VAC

between Wire #8 and Wire #2
(1 Amp Max Amperage Draw)

2. Detergent injection point and location of conductivity cell must be provided by a
qualified chemical supplier.

3. Detergent may be added manually for U-H1/U-HB models not equipped with dispensing
systems. Consult your local chemical supplier for the correct amount of non-chlorinated
automatic dishwashing liquid detergent.

4. U-H1 and U-HB models do not require chemical sanitizing agents.

5. Rinse aid injection point is provided via a 1/2" NPT plug located in the fill manifold piping
The manifold is located after the fill solenoid valve on the center right side of the machine
base behind the gauges.

Model U-LD

Pump Priming switches are located on the front of the control cabinet. (See U­LD Initial Start-up for pump priming instructions, (Pg. 13, Step 10). (See U-LD
Service for timer cam settings and adjustments, (Pg. 21)

2. Chemical pick-up tubes are color coded.

• Red = detergent Blue = Rinse aid Clear = Sanitizer
Chemicals are supplied by others.

3. Use an automatic commercial grade liquid detergent.
Use a sodium hypochlorite (Chlorine) based sanitizer at a minimum concentration of
50PPM in the final rinse.
Use chlorine test papers to verify and monitor the 50PPM chlorine level.

4. Use a liquid rinse aid.

WARNING:

Never premix rinse aid with the sanitizing agent. Mixing may cause hazardous gases to form.

CAUTION:

Some metal, including silver, aluminum, and pewter are attacked by sodium hypochlorite (chlorine
sanitizer). Avoid cleaning these metals in a U-LD dishwasher.
