Hobart Disposers are well recognized for quality
and capacity. They’re designed with your needs in
mind - built with a large capacity for food wastes.
The following pages illustrate the variations of
controls and accessories available to make these
food waste disposers the most versatile equipment for small to medium sized clean-up systems.
SPECIFICATIONS
Listed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. and meets requirements of
A.S.S.E. Standard No. 1009 (50 Hz. Electrical Specifications not U L
Listed.)
MOTORS: Continuous duty rating, equipped with
manual reset thermal overload inherent protector.
Permanently lubricated ball bearings for upper
and lower shelf support. Upper bearing is sealed
on both sides.
FOODWASTE DISPOSERS
MOTOR SHAFT SEAL: Face-type seal consists
of sintered bronze mating ring and spring loaded
carbon ring insert in chemical resistant neoprene
bellows. Mating surfaces are protected from grit or
fibers by being recessed into flywheel. Should any
moisture pass this seal, a flinger and drain tube
are provided to insure immediate removal. In
addition, a lip-type oil seal (located beneath the
bearings) is an “added protection” water seal.
DRAIN CONNECTOR: A chrome plated brass tailpiece is provided for connection to a 11⁄2" standard
drain trap.
DUAL DIRECTIONAL GRINDING: All Disposers
operate in either direction of flywheel rotation.
Direction of rotation can be controlled by the
operator (to increase life and efficiency of grinding
elements — back flywheel free of a “jam”) when
installed with Control Groups 2, 3 or 4.
WEIGHT: Shipping – Approx. 60 lbs. (does not
include accessory group or controls).
FD3-50 FD3-75 FD3-125 FOODWASTE DISPOSERS
HOUSINGS: Heavy aluminum grind and discharge
housings. Four bolts fasten the motor unit to the
grind chamber, permit easy removal.
MOUNTING: All Hobart Disposers (except when
using accessory group E), fasten to 7" I.D. (throat
opening) cones. A vinyl isolating ring eliminates
metal-to-metal contact at the cone mounting,
reduces vibration and noise transmission.
FLYWHEEL: Breaker blade, mounted at center,
speeds grinding, prevents objects from “riding” at
center. Two hardened stainless steel cutter blocks
(fastened to flywheel with nylock screws) are
replaceable, can be indexed for new cutting
edges. Ni-Resist flywheel is 63⁄16" diameter,
slots undercut the shredder ring to assure that
particles are cut to proper size before passing
to the drain line.
