C8 alarm in UC / FL / HT with CWS

Undercounter double skin, Front Loading and Hood Type high capacity with
water softener built-in (LS6EADPWS / WT38WS, LU7ADPWS /
WTU40ADPWS and LS14EAWS / WT65WS).

C8 alarm within few hours of working after installation.
In machine made during year 2007 (serial number starting with 7) we have

found 2 possible reasons:

1. loose cable to reed switch connector. This may give false contact and then
the circuit is open (not emptied boiler) even if the circuit is closed (emptied
boiler).

2. deflected magnetic field of floater magnet by rear panel in stainless steel
430 (only Undercounter LS6EADPWS / WT38WS and only for machines
with serial number from 72400001 to 80500001) whereas the rear panel is
very close to the water softener device.
In these installations the floater magnet cannot close the reed switch even
if the floater goes down regularly with the water.

1) Loose cable: from serial number 80300001 we have introduced a new
connector with more reliable cables fixing.

NEW

Furthermore on January 12th, 2008 we made a recall of all CWS machines in
CWH. All those machines have been updated.

2) Rear panel: from serial number 80600001 we have re-introduced stainless
steel 304 keeping the same spare part code 0L1420.

Remove clamp for rinse hose Pull the top of the WS device

Furthermore on February 13th, 2008 we made a recall of all Undercounter
LS6EADPWS / WT38WS machines in CWH. All those machines have been
updated.

1) Loose cable: the “new” connector is perfectly interchangeable towards the
“old” one.

The connector and its 2 cables are part of the whole wiring harness 0L0775
so, for time being, we can supply some connectors (+ cables) for retrofit
whereas machines often stop for C8 alarm. A specific spare part code will be
soon released (the production code is 638687900).
Technicians have to cut 2 cables and make connections with a terminal block
as following:

Remove metal cap Remove ring nut

Frontal view

Rear view

Remove screws (left and right side)

Take the connector on the lower part

of the WS device

Cut cables
