AM SELECT DISHWASHERS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
Models AM15 and AM15T dishwashers can be congured for straight through or corner operation.
Model AM15F is congured for front loading. AM15 and AM15T dishwashers are shipped from the
factory in straight-through conguration. Straight-through machines can easily be converted to corner
operation. Model AM15F includes a front-loader shelf and left- and right-side shields as standard
equipment. The front-loader shelf on AM15F can be positioned up (inside the machine during
operation) or down (outside the machine during operation).
AM15, AM15F and AM15T dishwashers are designed to operate in one of two modes: Hot water
sanitizing mode (designated by the letters “AH” or “AP” on the display when the machine is turned on),
or a chemical sanitizing mode (designated by the letters “AC” on the display when the machine is turned
on).
The serial number can be found on the machine data plate located on the bottom of the front panel.
DO NOT attempt to operate this dishwasher in the chemical sanitizing mode without a properly
installed, NSF-certied, chemical sanitizer feeder (not supplied with machine). Contact an authorized
detergent representative for information about a chemical sanitizer feeder.
The pump motor is rated 2 H.P. and has thermal overload protection.
The ll line incorporates an atmospheric vacuum breaker to prevent any reverse ow of water from the
dishwasher into the potable water supply.
The unit, once turned on, will ll the wash tank to the appropriate level and automatically stop lling
once the level is reached.
A oat, located in the wash tank, will shut off the heat supply if the water level becomes too low. When
the water returns to a proper level, the heating circuit is again operational.
A frame-mounted 8.5 KW electric booster water heater is available as an option on machines equipped
with electric tank heat. The booster water heater is designed to maintain a minimum nal rinse
temperature of 180°F provided the incoming water to the booster heater is at least 110°F.
High-temperature or gas heat dishwashers will probably require a hood or vent over the dishwasher in
order to meet local codes. Low-temperature chemical sanitizing machines or low usage electric heat
dishwashers may not require individual venting of the machine if the room is amply exhausted. Refer
to pages 10 and 11 for venting and hood requirements. Verify with local codes for nal authority.

UNPACKING
Immediately after unpacking the dishwasher, check for possible shipping damage. If this machine is
found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.
Prior to installation, test the electrical service to make sure it agrees with the specications on the
machine data plate; this includes the optional electric booster, if equipped. The dishwasher data plate
is located at the bottom of the front panel.
INSTALLATION CODES
Installation must be in accordance with state and local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with
the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 (latest edition) if applicable, and the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition). In Canada, the installation standards are: CAN/CGA B149.1,
CAN/CGA B149.2, and CSA C22.2 No.1 (latest editions).
LO CATION
Before nalizing the location, make sure that consideration has been given for the electrical conduit,
water supply, drain connection, gas supply and venting (if applicable), tabling (if needed), chemical
feeder replenishment (if applicable) and adequate clearance for opening the door.
The dishwasher must be level before any connections are made. Turn the threaded feet (Fig. 2) as
required to level the machine and adjust to the desired height.
The edge of dish table that overhangs the AM15 wash tank should be turned down and tted over the
top of the dishwasher tank (Fig. 3). Apply an NSF approved sealant between the overhang of the dish
table and the inner wall of the wash tank to prevent leakage (Fig. 3). Fasten the dish tables to the inner

WATER REQUIREMENTS
Proper water quality can improve warewashing performance by reducing spotting, lowering chemical
supply costs, improving productivity and extending equipment life. Local water conditions vary from
one location to another. The recommended proper water treatment for effective and efcient use of
this equipment will also vary depending on the local water conditions. Ask your municipal water
supplier for details about local water specics prior to installation.
Recommended water hardness is 3 grains of hardness per gallon or less. Chlorides must not exceed
50 parts per million. Water hardness above 3 grains per gallon should be treated by a water conditioner
(water softener or in-line treatment). Water treatment has been shown to reduce costs associated with
machine cleaning, reduce the need for deliming the dishwasher and reduce detergent usage.
Sediment, silica, chlorides or other dissolved solids may lead to a recommendation for particulate
ltration or reverse osmosis treatment.
If an inspection of the dishwasher or booster heater reveals lime build-up after the equipment has been
in service, in-line water treatment should be considered, and, if recommended, should be installed and
used as directed. Contact your Hobart Service ofce for specic recommendations.

Water Supply
Proper dishwasher operation requires a owing pressure of 20 ± 5 psig at the dishwasher. If the owing
pressure exceeds 25 psig, a pressure reducing valve (not supplied) must be installed in the water
supply line. CAUTION: The water pressure regulator must have a relief by-pass. Failure to use
the proper type of pressure regulator may result in damage to the unit.
A pressure gauge (Fig. 1) is provided (not installed) for verication of proper water pressure. The water
pressure is monitored when the solenoid valve is open and water is owing.
With Electric Booster Water Heater
The water supply line is connected below the booster with the line strainer (supplied) and
3
⁄4" pipe. A
manual shut off valve and pipe union are required (not supplied).
The water supply should have a minimum temperature of 110°F, and a owing pressure of 20 ± 5 psig
at the pressure gauge on top of the machine. If the owing pressure exceeds 25 psig, a pressure
reducing valve (not supplied) must be installed in the water supply line. CAUTION: The water
pressure regulator must have a relief by-pass. Failure to use the proper type of pressure
regulator may result in damage to the unit.
Incoming water temperature below 110°F may require longer wash cycle time than the 57 second cycle;
refer to OPERATION, pages 17 – 18.
When the ll / nal rinse valve is on, water from the booster tank enters the dishwasher through the nal
rinse arms. During the rinse cycle, this water is 180°F. A small amount of water will likely dribble out
of the lower rinse arm into the tank between cycles due to the natural expansion of water as it is being
heated.

VENTING REQUIREMENTS — WITH GAS TANK HEAT
AM15 Dishwasher Technical Manual Page 20 of 83
Hobart model AM15, AM15F or AM15T dishwashers equipped for gas tank heat are not provided with
a ue collar and are not intended to have the ue directly connected to a ventilation system. However,
the products of combustion must be vented to the outside air. The most common method of venting
is a vent hood over the entire dishwasher (Fig. 12). Refer to Rate of Exhaust Flow Calculations on the
next page for calculations of the proper vent rate for your hood. Another method is a small vent hood
(Fig. 13) positioned about ve inches above the ue exit at the rear of the dishwasher and connected
to existing ductwork. In either case, an electrical interlock must be installed to allow the ow of gas
to the dishwasher burner ONLY when the exhaust system is energized. For additional information,
refer to the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, NFPA 54.
