System Overview & Specifications

The Water Conservation System can be programmed to save up to four high level baths
to be used in subsequent cycles. This can reduce water usage and sewer output by up to
35%. The balanced design makes it impossible to accidentally overflow the tanks*. The
tanks are made of 304 stainless steel for maximum corrosion resistance and durability.
The system consists of a steel frame, two stainless steel tanks, one pump, two water
valves, hoses and a control box. This system is extremely robust yet simple to install and
operate with the benefit of easy installation on existing machines.

*Based on performance testing conducted with unrestricted open-trough drain system.

Installation Instructions

A. Tools Required

Tape measure
Razor knife or box cutter
Flat head screwdriver
Drill with concrete bit
5/16” nut driver or socket
9/16” wrench or socket
7/16” wrench or socket
Ratchet
#4 Phillips screwdriver (if tank removal is required)

B. Supplies Required

Concrete anchors
Material to plumb overflows into drain system

C. Prepare Washing Machine

Remove power from the washing machine.

Be sure to follow all lock-out/tag-out procedures for safety purposes. The machine must
be in a zero energy state prior to installing the Water Conservation System.

Access to the PS40 control enclosure and rear of the machine is required for installation
of the Water Conservation System. This can be accomplished by removing the top cover
(side cover on 140 & 175 lb. machines) and the lower rear panel from the machine.

4

Machines ordered with a Water Conservation System from the factory will have the
control wiring and drain hose T installed. Therefore, it will not be necessary to remove
the top (side) cover. Access to the rear of the machine is still required. Skip to step f:
“position machine and bolt down.”

D. Install Control Wiring

A 7/8” hole is required in the upper rear panel of the machine for installation. If there is
not a factory hole in the machine, the recommended location for this hole is near the top
middle of the upper rear panel. Avoid the area above the vacuum breaker the very top of
the panel where the top cover sits. Keep in mind that the control box cable is
approximately 2’ long.

Thread the wires through the upper rear panel into the machine and secure with the
locknut. The connector in figure 1 should be visible when standing behind the machine.

Figure 1.

Figure 2 shows the location of the drain harness plug (E) when looking down on the
control box. Access inside this enclosure is not required.

Remove the drain harness (E plug) connector from the underside of the PS40 control
enclosure.

When looking at the

wire side of the connector, pin 1 can be located by the tab protruding

from the corner of the connector, as in figure 3.

At a minimum, the drain harness connector will have wires in pins 1 and 2 for the drain
valve, but may also have wires in pins 3 and 4 for an optional second drain valve and pins
11 and 12 for motor cooling fans.

It is essential that the next step is done correctly otherwise a special pin extraction tool is
necessary to remove the pins without damage. Insert the wires in the following locations
as shown in figure 4. This is the view as seen when looking at the wire side of the
connector. Be sure the pins are securely locked in the connector by lightly pulling on the
wire after it is inserted.

Connect the green/yellow ground wire to any ¼” bolt on the upper rear panel and fasten
with the supplied nut.

6

Re-attach the drain harness connector to the PS40 control enclosure. The plugs are keyed
so it will only attach if the connector is in the proper orientation (1-1, 2-2, etc).

Replace top or side cover with the appropriate fasteners. Access to the rear of the
machine is still necessary for plumbing connections.

E. Install drain hose T

In order to install the T, the drain hose must be modified. As shown in figure 5, 2.0
inches of the hose needs to be cut out 4.5 inches from the drain valve. This can be
accomplished with a sharp knife or box cutter.

Install the clamps and T as shown in figure 6 for IPH60, IPH80, and IPH100’s. For
IPH140’s, the T must face in the opposite direction as in figure 7. Tighten clamps to
ensure leak-free operation.

F. Position unit and bolt down

Remove the shipping pallet and position the system in front of the washing machine.

Due to the size of the unit, it may be necessary to remove the tanks or even breakdown
the frame to get the system through doorways. See Section 6 for exploded drawings.

7

Remove the hoses (1), the rear crossbar (2), and both crossbar mounting brackets (3). On
models WCS80, WCS100, and WCS140, remove the rear corner post insert (4) and insert
the installation support (5). This is necessary to get the rear leg past the side soap
dispenser on the washing machine. IPH60 washers do not have a side dispenser, so this
feature is not included on the WCS60. Figure 8 shows how the machine is shipped while
figure 9 shows the machine ready for positioning and installation over the washing
machine.

Slide the water conservation system into place over the washing machine. Watch the
overflow hoses; it is a tight fit. Position the front of the tanks flush with the front of the
washing machine control panel. Once the system is situated in the desired location,
remove the installation support (5) and reinstall the rear corner post insert (4). At this
time also reattach the rear crossbar brackets (3), the rear crossbar (2), and the hoses (1).
Figure 10 shows a correctly placed system ready to be bolted to the floor.
