PREFACESECTION 2
A Control center is a device used to start and stop a commercial
disposer by the use of two push-button switches. It is commonly
referred to as a control panel and contains various electrical
component parts. The main functions of the control panel are to
reverse the direction of the disposer motor each time it is started,
start the water flow to the disposer, and allow it to flow for several
minutes after the disposer is turned off.
This manual includes CC-101 series control centers manufactured
since 1976 (i.e., CC-101 A through CC-101 G). Basic functions
remained the same throughout the CC-101 series, but component
parts changed, and eventually additional features were added.
NOTE
Once the function and purpose of each component is learned, control
centers manufactured before 1976 can also be diagnosed. If one
studies the B and C models, the remaining models become easier to
understand.
The model number of a control center can be found on the
specifications decal located on the inside or outside of the enclosure
door. All information on the decal (i.e., voltage, horsepower and
phase) must be noted prior to diagnosing. Variations of a control
center do not necessarily change the model number. Visual
inspection will determine which wiring diagram in this manual applies
to a given control center.

GENERAL INFORMATION SECTION 3
GENERAL
This section is not intended as a complete installation guide.
Basic notes and guidelines for installation are provided here
for the purpose of checking or troubleshooting an existing
installation. Detailed installation instructions were provided
with the disposer; to obtain technical information not covered
in those instructions, contact the Factory.
NOTE
Neither the IN-SINK-ERATOR Company nor any of its Authorized
Service Centers performs original installations,
All installations are to be in accordance with local plumbing
and electrical codes.
NOTE
The disposer control center must be mounted within direct sight of
the disposer per local codes. Any remote control stations must also
be located within direct sight of the disposer per local codes.
PLUMBING INSTALLATION
The following plumbing installation diagrams are included to
illustrate the plumbing connections of a typical installation.
Figure 5-1 shows an installation for a control center with an
enclosure-mounted solenoid valve (models CC-101A and
CC-101B). Figure 5-2 shows an installation with a remote-
mount solenoid valve (all other models).
The solenoid valve and flow control valve are each marked
with arrows showing the proper water flow direction. Both
valves must be installed so that the water flows through them
in the correct direction or the valves will not work properly.
Note that in all installations a syphon breaker (vacuum
breaker) must be installed above the sink flood plane per local
plumbing code.

The standard disposer motor voltages are 115/208/230 volts for
single phase electrical power and 208/230/460 volts for three phase
electrical power.
NOTE
Three phase contactors require three sets of contacts to carry line
voltage to the disposer, while single phase contactors require four
Circuitry and parts function on all control centers are identified
within their respective models. This applies to all component parts
controlled by or on the secondary voltage side of the transformer,
whether it is a 1 phase or 3 phase control center.
The wiring (circuitry) to the line voltage connections on the Reversing
contactors are identical on all 3 phase (only) contactors. The wiring
(circuitry) to the line voltage connections on the Reversing contactors
are identical on all 1 phase (only) contactors.
sets. Two identical contactors are utilized in every control center to
perform the function of reversing the disposer motor rotation.
Therefore, the wiring diagrams in this section (Figs. 4-12 through 4-
19) show 3 phase contactors but can be used to diagnose or trace
circuitry for 1 phase or 3 phase control centers, keeping in mind that
only the contactors are different from 1 phase to 3 phase. Refer to
Figs. 4-10 and 4-11 for 1 phase contactor connections.
All electrical connections must conform to local codes. Be
certain that all IN-SINK-ERATOR disposers and control centers
are carefully and permanently grounded.

CIRCUIT
Power lines carry line voltage to the primary terminals (also
called "taps") of the transformer. Line L2 is connected to the
common (ground) tap with Line L1 connected to the tap
coinciding with the line voltage.
The secondary taps on these transformers will always
supply 115 V ac to the load. This secondary voltage
operates the component parts in the control circuit. These
transformers are rated at 100 VA (Volt/Amperes), and can
be used for any 208 V/230 V/460 V incoming line. See
Figure 4-3.
TRANSFORMER CONNECTIONS FOR
CONTROL CENTERS WITH 24 V CONTROL
CIRCUITS
All control centers with 24 V secondary voltage require one
of two transformers. They appear identical. The specification
decal on the transformers will show 120 - 240 V or 240 -480
V (connections for line voltage). There is no reference to 208
V, but it is to be understood that 208 V connections will be
the same as 240 V. Whenever the recommended
transformer is used wiring diagrams furnished with the Control Center or in this manual apply.
Both 24 V secondary tap transformers can be used with 240
or 208 V inputs, but the terminal connections will change
and Control Center wiring diagrams may not necessarily apply. Whenever in doubt, refer to and use the connections
shown on the transformer specification decal. Connections
for input (primary) and output (secondary) voltages are the
same in all cases. See Figure 4-4 for connections.

This section provides the information required for the removal and replacement of the subpanel in the disposer
control center enclosure. The subpanel is the flat piece
of sheet metal inside the enclosure that most of the
components are mounted on. Most components are
secured with screws and can be changed without
removing the subpanel. However, a few components
are secured with screws to a nut on the back of the
subpanel and require that the panel be removed to
remove the component. Also, it is sometimes necessary
to remove the subpanel to retrieve lost fasteners.
Differences between control center models sometimes
require slight differences in the procedures. The
changes are described when necessary.

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION SECTION 7
GENERAL
This section provides information on the function of the
component parts of the control center. Photographs of the
individual components are provided, with a description accompanying each one. For some components, more than one
photograph is provided in order to illustrate minor component
changes from one model to the next. This section also calls out
the location of each component on the schematic diagram.
Note that no one model of disposer control center contains all
the components listed in this section. The components used in
a particular control center can be determined by looking at the
wiring diagram on the inside of the control center enclosure
door.
Transformer
The transformer steps down the higher voltage from the power
line to a relatively low 115 volts (24 volts for some models).
This lower voltage is used for control purposes to power the
controlling components, which may include a reverser/timer, a
latch relay coil, a contactor coil, a solenoid valve, a solenoid
valve timer, a restart delay timer, a timer relay coil, a control
circuit board, and an auto shutoff timer.
Line voltage is applied to the primary winding (the top winding
of the transformer as shown on the wiring diagram), and the
control voltage (115 or 24 volts) is taken from the secondary
winding (the bottom winding). The transformer has several
different input connections so that it can be used with different
line voltages.

. Fuse.
SECTION 7 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd)
Fuse
The fuse, designated F1 on the wiring diagrams in this
manual, provides circuit protection in the event of a
short circuit or other electrical problem in the control
center. If too much current is used by the any
component in the control center, the fuse will blow,
opening the circuit. This fuse does not protect the
disposer motor from excessive current; the disposer
motor is protected by the circuit breaker or fuse in the
line that supplies power to it or by the overload
protector or the disposer motor.
On the wiring diagrams Inside the enclosure door,
some models designate the fuse by Its F1 reference
designation;
other models designate It only by its fuse type, e.g.
FNA 1 or FHA 2.
Door Interlock Switch (Line Disconnect)
NOTE
The door interlock switch is a safety device that
combines a disconnect switch with a mechanical door
latch. They are connected together by an "operating
rod" that is fastened to the interlock switch. The door
interlock switch must be turned off to open the control
center door. Turning the switch off disconnects the
power line from the disposer motor and from the
transformer that supplies power to the control circuits
in the control center. This is done as a safety
precaution. However, line voltage is still present on the
line terminals of the door interlock switch.
Figure 7-3. Door Interlock Switch.
7-2
Disconnect Switch
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd) SECTION 7
Control centers that do not have a door interlock switch have
one or two disconnect switches mounted at the top of the
control center enclosure. The switch (es) are positioned so that
when the control center door is closed, the switch plunger(s)
are pushed in, closing the switch contacts. Disconnect switch
contacts are wired in series. When the control center door is
opened, the switch contacts open and the control voltage is
turned off, either directly by the disconnect switch or indirectly
by a disconnect relay on units so equipped. This turns off line
voltage to the disposer control center (for units with two
disconnect switches, only one disconnect switch has to be
open to disconnect the control voltage). However, line voltage
is still present at the power line terminals of some components
(refer to the appropriate wiring diagram to determine which
terminals remain live for any particular model).
Disconnect Relay (Line Disconnect)
Some models of disposer control center have a disconnect
relay that works in conjunction with disconnect switches. The
disconnect relay supplies line power to the disposer control
center. The disconnect relay coil is powered directly from the
power lines (line voltage). Power to the disconnect relay coil is
controlled by the disconnect switches. If either switch opens
(the control center door is opened), the disconnect relay coil is
turned off. This opens the relay, disconnecting line power to the
disposer control center. However, line voltage is still present on
the power line terminals of the disconnect relay even when the
contactor is open.

START Switch.
SECTION 7 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd)
START Switch
The START switch has one or more sets of contacts, depending upon
the model. When the START switch is pressed, all the contacts close.
Depending upon the model, the contacts send power to different
devices such as the contactor coil, the solenoid valve, the control
circuit board, and the auto shutoff timer. All functions required to start
the disposer are switched by the START switch contacts.
For all models, the START and STOP switches are each composed of a mechanical pushbutton connected to one or two
detachable sets of electrical contacts that open and close as
the pushbutton moves In and out. However, for the operational
description, the STOP and START switches are treated as
single components rather than as assemblies.
STOP Switch
The STOP switch has one or more sets of contacts, depending
upon the model. When the STOP switch is pressed the
contacts open or close, depending upon whether they are
normally open. or normally closed. One set of contacts opens
to interrupt power to the contactor coil (either directly or via the
control circuit board). Other contacts close to activate the
alternator/timer, latch relay, or the restart delay timer.
NOTE
NOTE
The start and stop switches are momentary contact pushbutton switches. Once pressed in, they will return to their original
position when released.
Figure 7-7. STOP Switch.
7-4
Remote Control Station
Figure
7-8.
Remote Control Station.
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd) SECTION 7
This is a START switch and a STOP switch that can be mounted at a
distance from the control center, and are the same type and design of
those on the control center. The remote START switch contacts are
connected in parallel with the control center START switch contacts.
The remote STOP switch contacts are connected in series or parallel
with the control center STOP switch contacts, depending upon the
model. (Refer to the appropriate wiring diagram.)
Pressure Switch
The pressure switch prevents the disposer motor from operating if the
water pressure falls below approximately 15 p.s.i. If pressure drops
below this point, the pressure switch opens, interrupting power to the
component parts and shuts down the disposer. The START switch
must be pressed to restart the disposer. The pressure switch acts in
the same manner as a STOP switch.
Figure 7-9. Pressure Switch.
7-5
Reverser/Timer
SECTION 7 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd)
The reverser/timer performs two different functions for the
disposer control center. It switches between the F and the R
contactor coils with every START/STOP cycle. This provides
the automatic reversing action for the disposer motor. It also
controls the water flow timing cycle. When the STOP switch is
pressed the reverser/timer begins the 5-minute water flow
timing cycle; it maintains power to the solenoid valve until the
cycle ends. Terminal 2 is the power input, terminal 7 is ground
(common), terminal 4 is the output that drives the solenoid
valve, and terminal 3 senses when each START/ STOP cycle
begins and ends. Terminals 6 and 8 connect to the F (forward)
and R (reverse) contactor coils respectively. Note that when the
START switch is pressed, the reverser/ timer connects the F or
R contactor coil internally to pin 7 to turn the contactor coil on.
Latch Relay (Reversing Relay)
The latch relay performs the automatic reversing of the disposer motor. This relay toggles ("flip-flops") or switches
between its two sets of contacts once per START/STOP cycle.
In one position, the latch relay directs voltage to the F (forward)
contactor coil, causing the disposer motor to run in the forward
direction. In the other position, the latch relay directs voltage to
the R (reverse) contactor coil, causing the motor to run in the
Figure 7-10. Reverser/Timer and Socket.
reverse direction. The latch relay changes position every time
the STOP switch is pressed.
Figure 7-11. Latch Relay.
7-6
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd) SECTION 7
Alternator Switch (Reversing)
The alternator switch provides auto-reversing action for the
disposer motor by alternately selecting between its two outputs every START/STOP cycle. The alternator switch is mechanically linked with the STOP switch so that every time the
STOP switch is pressed, the alternator switch changes from
one output to the other. One output is connected to the F
contactor coil; the other is connected to the R contactor coil.
Contactors (Reversing Contactors)
Two contactors, F (forward) and R (reverse), direct line
voltage to the disposer motor. They are either mounted separately or on a mutual mounting plate. One connects the
disposer motor windings to run the disposer in the forward
direction. The other connects them to run in the reverse direction. Depending upon the model of disposer control center,
selection of the contactors is controlled by the reverser/ timer,
reversing switch, latch relay, or control circuit board. This
description does not include the auxiliary contacts or auxiliary
contact microswitches mounted to the reversing contactor.
When power is applied to one of the contactor coils, all of the
contacts associated with that coil close. They open again
when power is removed from the coil. Note that only one
contactor, F or R, can be energized at a time. All the F
contacts shown on the wiring diagram close when the F contactor coil is energized. All the R contacts close when the R
coil is energized. When the contactor pulls down engaging the
contacts carrying power to the motor, it also activates the
auxiliary contacts or auxiliary contact microswitches.
Since the application of the contacts differs from one model of
disposer control center to the next, it is necessary to refer to
the wiring diagram for each model to determine their
functions.

Auxiliary Contacts.
Auxiliary Contacts
SECTION 7 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd)
Auxiliary contacts are additional sets of contacts (block or
microswitches) mounted to and are activated in unison with the
mechanical action of the reversing contactors.
Auxiliary contact blocks are mounted to the end of the reversing
contactor. See Fig. 7-14 (A).
Auxiliary contact microswitches are mounted to the top of the
reversing contactor. See Fig. 7-14 (B).
Auxiliary contacts may contain one or two sets of contacts which may
have any combination of N.O. and/or N.C.
They are used in the control circuit to:
• Bypass the start button (switch) after the unit is started and the start
button is released, maintaining power to the control circuit.
• Activate power to the "F" or "R" coil in the reversing contactor.
• Engage the time delay relay controlling the solenoid
valve.
• "Lockout" the reversing contactor coil not engaged preventing it
from being activated.
• Maintain power to the time delay relay holding the solenoid valve
engaged after the stop button is pressed and the disposer motor
stops.
The model of the control center determines the type, the number of
and the function of the auxiliary contacts. Review the respective wiring
diagram.
Solenoid Valve
The solenoid valve is an electrically-controlled water valve. The
valve opens when power is applied to the solenoid valve coil,
allowing water to flow to the disposer. When power to the coil is
removed, the valve shuts off the water flow. The solenoid valve
is powered by the transformer in the disposer control center,
and is controlled by the reverser/timer, the time delay relay, or
a printed circuit board.
The solenoid valve must be installed with its arrow pointing
downstream or erratic water flow will occur.
Figure 7-15. Solenoid Valve.
7-8
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd) SECTION 7
Solenoid Valve Timer (Time Delay Relay)
The solenoid valve timer is a solid state electronic device.
After the STOP switch is pressed the disposer motor stops
but, the solenoid valve timer supplies power to the solenoid
valve for a defined time (which can be adjusted by a potentiometer) to provide water to the disposer which helps reduce
drain clogging. When the water flow timing cycle ends, the
solenoid valve timer removes power from the solenoid valve,
shutting off the flow of water.
Potentiometer
The potentiometer is a device with an adjustable screw or
stem used to control the time-out of the time delay relay. It is
connected directly to the time delay relay and is adjustable
from 0 to 5 or 10 minutes depending on the model. Using a
small flat blade screwdriver and turning the screw fully
clockwise, will set the time-out to maximum.
Restart Delay Timer
The disposer motor should not be subjected to rapid reversals
in direction which could occur if the unit were turned on and
off rapidly a number of times, which causes' motor burnout. To
prevent this, the restart delay timer stops the disposer from
restarting within 5 seconds after it is turned off. The restart
delay timer is a non-adjustable electronic timer. When the
STOP switch is pressed, one pair of STOP switch contacts
(as shown on the wiring diagram) signals the restart delay
timer to begin the restart timeout period. When this happens,
the restart delay timer applies power to the timer relay coil.
The timer relay contacts open, preventing power from
reaching either contactor; this prevents the unit from being
started. When the restart timeout period ends, the restart
delay timer allows normal operation again.

Timer Relay.
SECTION 7 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd)
Timer Relay
This time relay has several sets of contacts which can N.O., N.C., or
both. The contacts open or close when the coil in the relay is
activated.
This relay works in conjunction with the restart delay timer to
provide restart delay protection control for the disposer motor.
When the STOP switch is pressed, the bottom STOP switch
contacts close, supplying power to the restart delay timer and
the timer relay coil (TR). The energized coil closes the TR1
contacts, supplying power to terminal 2 of the restart delay
timer. This signals the restart delay timer to maintain power to
the timer relay coil (via terminal 1) until the restart timeout
period expires. During the restart timeout period, the TR2
contacts open to prevent current from flowing through the
reversing contactor coils, thus preventing operation of the
disposer motor. When the restart timeout period expires, the
restart delay timer removes the power from terminal 1. The TR
relay then returns to normal, opening the TR1 contacts and
closing the TR2 contacts. When this happens, the disposer
can be started again.

Control Circuit Board.
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd) SECTION 7
NOTE
This electronic circuit board contains the larger and bulkier time
delay relays, relays potentiometer and alternator found is earlier
model control centers. It is a totally self-contained unit and is
non-repairable.
This device controls the reversing contactor coils, the water flow
tinning cycle, the restart timeout period, and the auto shutoff
function for the control center. It also controls the auto reversing
for the disposer motor with every START/ STOP cycle.
Power from the transformer is supplied to the circuit board via
terminals 2 and 4. Terminal 4 is the common, or chassis
ground. Terminal 7 of the control circuit board is the START/
STOP switching input. When the input goes high (on), the
control circuit board starts the disposer motor and turns on the
solenoid valve to allow water to flow to the disposer. When the
input goes low (off), the control board stops the disposer,
begins the water flow timing cycle and begins the restart
timeout period.
Terminal 11 is the output line to the F (forward) contactor coil.
(Power is supplied to the F contactor coil via terminal 11 and
chassis ground, terminal 4.) This line is used to close the F
contactor, which runs the disposer motor in the forward
direction.
Terminal 12 is the output line to the R (reverse) contactor coil.
(Power is supplied to the R contactor coil via terminal 12 and
chassis ground, terminal 4.) This line is used to close the R
contactor, which runs the disposer motor in the reverse
direction.
Terminal 13 is the output line to the solenoid valve. (Power is
supplied to the solenoid valve via terminal 13 and chassis
ground, terminal 4.) This line is used to turn on the solenoid
valve, which allows water to flow to the disposer.
Flow Control Valve
The flow control valve is installed in the water supply line
between the solenoid valve and the disposer. When the solenoid valve is open, the flow control valve regulates the flow of
water to the disposer. By providing optimum water flow, it
prevents excessive water consumption while allowing adequate
water for proper disposer operation. The flow control valve
requires no electric power.
Disposer application requires a properly sized valve (3,5 or 10
G.P.M.) 3/4" N.P.T. It must be installed with the arrow on the
valve pointing downstream or the diaphragm in the valve will not
control proper water flow.

SECTION 7 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd)
Auto Shutoff Timer
The auto shutoff timer is an adjustable electronic device that is
electrically the same as the solenoid valve timer. The auto
shutoff timer is connected so that once the disposer motor is
started, it will shut off automatically after a defined period of
time (the period may or may not be adjusted by a potentiometer). However, the motor will also stop at any time if the
STOP switch is pressed.
Figure 7-21. Auto Shutoff Timer.
7-12
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd) SECTION 7
Pressure Switch
A pressure switch is an electrical switch whose contacts are activated
by water pressure.
A water line connected to the water fitting allows water pressure to
press against a diaphragm. This action overcomes the spring
tensioned disk behind the diaphragm, allowing the disk to make and
activate the switch contacts.
The pressure switch assures water flow to the disposer when it is
running. Whenever the water pressure diminishes, it is sensed by the
pressure switch and its contacts open shutting down the operation.
Pressure switches in control centers are preadjusted to close its
contacts at a water pressure of 15 P.S.I, or more.
A momentary pressure drop can cause the switch to drop out,
opening the circuit.

OPERATING SEQUENCE SECTION 9
GENERAL
This section describes the operating sequence of the IN-SINKERATOR Commercial Disposer Control Center and illustrates
the electrical operation with diagrams. The description is
written to apply to all control centers, with differences between
models noted as necessary. Differences between models are
best noted by referring to the schematic wiring diagrams that
are mounted on the inside of the door in each control center
enclosure.
NOTE
All models have some type of interlock or disconnect switch
that prevents operation of the disposer when the control center door is open.
1. The operator presses the START switch. The START
switch contacts close, supplying power to the F (forward) or R
(reverse) contactor coil. On some models, the power does not
go directly to the contactor coils from the switch, but instead
goes to a control circuit board that determines which contactor
coil will be energized.
Some models have a second set of contacts on the START
switch that supply power to the solenoid valve while the start
switch is pressed. When the START switch is released, power
to the solenoid valve is supplied by the reverser/ timer, the
solenoid valve timer, or the control circuit board, depending
upon the model.
Models equipped with an auto shutoff timer have an additional
pair of contacts on the START switch that signal the auto
shutoff timer to begin timing the auto shutoff cycle. (On all
models the disposer motor stops immediately when the STOP
switch is pressed, regardless of whether the unit has an auto
shutoff timer.)
NOTE
For models that have a pressure switch, the water pressure
must be at least 15 p.s.i. to keep the pressure switch closed or
the disposer motor will not run. If the water pressure Is less
than 15 p.s.i. the pressure switch contacts will open, preventing power from reaching the contactor coil.
NOTE
For the purpose of this description, operation is described with
the F contactor coil selected. However, operation Is the same
when the R coil is selected; the only thing that changes is the
disposer motor's direction of rotation. (The direction reverses
with every START/STOP cycle.) Energizing the F contactor
coil closes all the F contacts shown on the wiring diagram.
Energizing the R contactor coil closes all the R contacts. Only
one contactor can be closed at a time.
2. The energized contactor coil closes the contactor, causing
two things to happen:
a. Power is applied to the disposer motor through the F
contacts.
b. The F contact across the START switch closes, sup-
plying continuous power to the contactor coil. This
keeps the contactor closed after the START switch is
released. (This has the same effect as holding the
START switch in continuously.)
9-1
SECTION 9 OPERATING SEQUENCE (Cont'd)
3. Solenoid valve power is maintained by the reverser/ timer,
the solenoid valve timer, or the control circuit board,
depending on the control center model.
This condition continues until the operator presses the STOP
switch.
4. The operator presses the STOP switch. The STOP switch
contacts open, interrupting power to the F contactor coil.
Some models have a second set of contacts on the STOP
switch that are used to supply power to the latch relay coil to
make it change from one state to another, or to signal a restart
delay timer to begin the restart timeout period.
On some models a reverser switch is mechanically linked to
the STOP switch. The reverser switch is used to alternately
select the F (forward) or R (reverse) contactor coil, which
determines the disposer motor's direction of rotation. The two
output terminals of the reverser switch are connected to the F
and R contactor coils. Every time the STOP switch is pressed,
the reverser switch changes from one output terminal to the
other.
Models with a restart delay timer have an additional set of
contacts on the stop switch that signal the restart delay timer to
begin the restart timeout period.
5. The F contactor coil releases (opens) the F contacts,
turning off power to the disposer motor.
6. The water flow timing cycle begins. During the water flow
timing cycle, solenoid valve power is maintained by the
reverser/timer, the solenoid valve timer, or the control
circuit board, depending on the control center model.
7. When the water flow timing cycle ends, the reverser/ timer,
the solenoid valve timer, or the control circuit board
removes power from the solenoid valve, shutting off the
flow of water to the disposer.
8. Operation is the same for the next START/STOP cycle,
except that the R contactor is energized instead of the F
contactor.
REVERSING
All CC-101 Series Commercial Disposer Control Centers
perform automatic reversing of the disposer motor with each
START/STOP cycle. The disposer operates effectively in either
direction, and the reversing action doubles the life of the
shredders in the disposer. The reversing can be accomplished
with a reverser/timer, a latch relay, an reverser switch, or a
control circuit board, depending on the control center model.
Although the components are different, they all perform
disposer motor reversing by changing state every
START/STOP cycle. Descriptions of these components are
provided in the Component Function section of this manual.

COMPONENT TESTING AND REPLACEMENT SECTION 10
GENERAL
This section provides information on testing and replacement of all
the disposer control center components, including the solenoid valve
and the pressure switch. Component variations among the different
disposer control center models are noted in the procedures when
applicable. To simplify testing, these procedures test the components
in the circuit whenever possible. This eliminates having to remove
each component for testing.
Many of the test procedures require a voltmeter. Either a volt-ohm
meter (VOM), a digital multimeter (DMM), or a vacuum-tube
voltmeter (VTVM) may be used. All measurements are in AC volts
unless otherwise noted. Continuity testing (with ohm meter) can be
used - with line voltage off - to test components. Care must be taken
to set the meter to the correct setting (voltage or ohms) and range
BEFORE each measurement is taken. Failure to do so may destroy
the meter. (The expected voltage or resistance reading is listed in
each step where a voltage measurement is taken.) Also, be sure to
plug the meter test leads into their correct sockets on the meter; on
many meters, the lead sockets used for resistance measurements
are separate from the sockets used for voltage measurements.
WARNING
TESTING OF COMPONENTS IN THE CIRCUIT WITH POWER APPLIED
EXPOSES THE REPAIR TECHNICIAN TO DANGEROUS VOLTAGES. BE
VERY CAREFUL NOT TO TOUCH ANY WIRES OR TERMINALS THAT
MAY BE CARRYING HIGH VOLTAGE.
Each wire in the disposer control center is identified by a numbered
tag on the wire. (Red wires carry control voltage, black wires carry
line voltage.) The same numbers are shown on the wiring diagram.
Component terminal numbers provided in this section, unless
otherwise noted, refer to the identification number of the wire
connecting to a component terminal.
Many tests require that the door interlock switch or disconnect switch
(es) be defeated. Appropriate defeat procedures are provided at the
beginning of this section.

INFORMATIONAL TIPS
SECTION
12
• Before making any repairs, find out if someone else has
attempted to fix the problem, and find out what has already been done or attempted.
• When the enclosure door is open(ed), some components
may still be "live". Line voltage will be present until the
main circuit panel or disconnect is turned off. Once the
line voltage is off, check the control center components
with a voltmeter to ensure that no voltage is present.
• A standard neon test lamp can be modified for use as a
safety light to warn if the power line has been reenergized (see Figure 12-1). It can be attached to the line
side of the reversing contactor inside the enclosure while
service is being performed. If the lamp lights, power has
been turned on.
• Replaced control centers are good reference/study tools.
Studying them just before making service calls should
help diagnosis even though the specific models may vary
somewhat in configuration.
• Whenever power must be on in the enclosure during
control center diagnosis, use a 12 inch long, 1/8 inch
diameter dowel for "picking and pushing" at the components. DO NOT USE METAL TOOLS FOR PROBING
INSIDE A LIVE CONTROL CENTER ENCLOSURE.
• The area around disposer control centers are very prone
to be wet — sometimes under water. Do not stand on
wet floors or equipment when working on any electrical
equipment.
• Bypassing the control center and running the disposer
direct using a "cheater cord" will help to isolate the
problem in either the disposer or the control center.
• Low or unstable line voltage at the transformer has a
definite effect on the secondary transformer output. Always check the primary and secondary voltage at the
transformer, especially when erratic or "phantom"
problems are present. Low secondary voltage can cause
inoperable component parts.
Figure 12-1. Modified Neon Test Lamp.
Cut probes from both test lamp wires and fasten needlepoint
alligator clamps. One test lamp must be made for every
voltage - 115V, 208/230 V, 460 V. Ensure that line power Is
off before connecting test lamp.
• Although a wiring diagram may show only one wire at a
terminal, there may actually be more. Wiring diagrams
are drawn for electrical circuit clarity and accuracy, not
complete physical accuracy. Any time a wire is removed,
it should be marked if the service technician must leave
the site.
• Do not remove wires or components requiring replace-
ment (unless absolutely necessary) until the replacement
part is in hand.
Next Page
12-1
SECTION 12 INFORMATIONAL TIPS (Cont'd)
• If temporary repairs must be made to the control center or
disposer to make the disposer operate until replacement
parts can be obtained, make sketches for reference. MAKE
CERTAIN THAT TEMPORARY REPAIRS ALLOW SAFE
OPERATION OF THE DISPOSER AND CONTROL
CENTER, AND THAT THE TEMPORARY REPAIRS DO
NOT DAMAGE OTHER COMPONENTS.
• Solenoid valves furnished with control centers have a
single voltage coil. Solenoid valves with proper multivoltage coils can be used providing the coil wires are
connected to accept secondary voltage from the control
centers.
• Solenoid valves mounted on older control center models
can be relocated elsewhere if required. Rewiring and
enclosure protection must be in accordance with local
electrical codes.
• A few control centers made for specific requirements have
additional components or different configurations than are
shown in this manual. Contact the factory for assistance if
needed.
• Access holes for control center power supply lines are to
be sealed and watertight. If water is found inside the
control center enclosure, notify the owner/management of
the site.
• Some control centers may be subjected to vibration, jarring
and pounding due to their location and the work habits of
kitchen personnel. This could result in wiring connections
and component mounts working loose. Before leaving each
job, check all wiring connections (spade, screw and solder)
and mounting means (screw, nut and bolt) to ensure that
all connections and components in the enclosure are tight.
• Follow these steps first when diagnosing control
centers and make observations.
1. Attempt starting the unit.
2. Shut off power at control center (turn handle or open
door).
3. Attempt starting unit.
4. Shut off power at main electrical panel.
Use meter or test lamp at control center to test
"Power Off.
5. Tighten all electrical screw and spade connections. Look for wires that may be loose or not
connected.
6. Turn on Power.
Check voltage at primary and secondary
terminals on transformer.
7. Attempt starting unit.
8. Diagnose.

SPECIAL EQUIPMENT SECTION 13
GENERAL
Special, or non-standard control centers account for only a
small portion of all control centers. This section provides an
overview of special control centers.
ADDED PARTS
The most common difference between a special control center
and a standard control center is that the special control center
has an added auto shutoff timer to provide an automatic
shutoff feature. The auto shutoff feature turns off the disposer
automatically after a set amount of time. Auto shutoff is
standard in control centers with PC boards.
A few control centers are non-standard because they have
been equipped with a non-standard input voltage transformer
(e.g. 415 volts, 380 volts, etc.).
Sometimes a control center may appear non-standard, but a
visual inspection will reveal that it is a standard control center
that has been incorrectly modified by a repair person.
REMOTE PARTS
The addition of a remote control station also makes a control
center special.
REPAIR PARTS
If the part(s) required to make a repair are not found on the
appropriate parts sheet, contact the factory for assistance.
The specification decal shows an engineering serial number
(i.e. ENG 12935 AM) used for identification of special equipment.
13-1
GLOSSARY OF TERMS SECTION 14
NOTE
Many of the components listed in this glossary apply only to
specific models of the control center.
Alternator Switch: A switch that alternately selects the foward
or reverse direction of rotation for the disposer motor. The
switch is mechanically coupled to the stopswitch.
Alternator/timer: An electronic module that controls the solenoid valve timing and alternately selects the forward or reverse direction of rotation for the disposer motor.
Auto Shutoff Timer: An electronic timer that automatically
turns off the disposer motor after a preset amount of time.
Auxiliary Contacts: Contacts that are supplementary to the
main contacts and are actuated at the same time.
Carbon Tracking: Traces of carbon oxidation usually deposited on contacts as a result of arcing.
Cheater Cord: A short electrical cord, designed to be plugged
into a standard receptacle, used to supply power to the
disposer motor to determine if a problem lies in the disposer or
in the control panel.
Coils: A long conductor (or group of conductors) wound into a
tight package to take advantage of the resulting inductance.
Contact Blocks: A block of conducting material used in a
relay or contactor to close a circuit.
Contactor: An electromechanical switching device that allows
the low-power control voltage circuit to turn the disposer motor
on and off.
Control Circuit Board: A printed circuit board that controls
the solenoid valve timing and auto shutoff timing, and alternately selects the forward or reverse direction of rotation for
the disposer motor.
Control Circuits: The control circuits include the printed circuit board, start and stop switches, disconnect or door interlock switch, pressure switch, all relay and contactor coils, all
timers, and the solenoid valve.
Control Voltage: The control voltage is 24 volts ac or 115
volts ac, depending upon the model of disposer control center.
All control circuits in the disposer control center are powered
by the control voltage. This provides a margin of safety by
isolating the operator from the higher line voltage that powers
the disposer motor.
Disconnect Relay: A relay that connects the line voltage to
the rest of the control center when line voltage is applied to the
relay coil. The relay coil is controlled by a disconnect switch.
Disconnect Switch: A plunger switch that opens a control
voltage circuit, either directly or via a control relay, when the
enclosure door is opened. The plunger is pushed in, closing
the circuit, when the door is closed.
Door Interlock Switch: A manually-operated rotary switch
that disconnects line power from the disposer control center
when the enclosure door is opened. The door cannot be
opened without turning the switch off.
14-1
SECTION 14 GLOSSARY OF TERMS (Cont'd)
Enclosure; The metal box that houses the disposer control
center.

• Line power now passes through the disconnect
switch to the primary side of the transformer and
to the reversing contactors.
• Line power is stepped down to 115 volts at the

from the N.O. auxiliary contacts (Aux F1 and Aux
F2), causing their contacts to close.
Aux F1 will now hold the F coil circuit engaged when
the start button is released.
• With no power through Aux F2, it no longer
holds the timer (Terminals 4 and 5), but the time
delay relay (still powered from Terminals 2 to 1
and 3) maintains power to the solenoid valve
coil and water flow continues. The timer
(Terminals 4 and 5) being released now starts
to time out (zero to five minutes) depending on
the pre-selected manual adjustment of the
potentiometer. When the time has lapsed, the
timer interrupts the circuit (Terminals 2 to 1),
and there is now no power to the solenoid valve
coil. The valve closes and the water flow stops.
• Pushing in on the stop switch also closes its
normally open contacts. We now have a
completed circuit through the stop switch and
alternator relay coil, returning to the
transformer. The relay becomes activated and
pulls a lever, releasing the AF contact and

INTRODUCTION OPERATION
A. Disposer motor wiring connections are made to
terminal blocks in the Control Center in accordance with diagram furnished with the
Control Center.
B. Transformer primary terminals are prewired at
the factory for the line voltage to be used.
Specification decal (voltage) of the Control
Center and of the disposer must match the line
voltage.
C. Component parts wired to the secondary side
of the transformer work on secondary voltage.
Notice the F and R coils; they are actually
located in the F and R sides of the reversing
contactors. Although the reversing contactors
carry line voltage to the disposer motor, the
coils work on secondary voltage.
D. The reversing contactors are actually two
separate magnetic contactors. Only one contactor is actuated at a time depending on which
contactor coil is actuated, (F or R). This
determines the direction of the motor rotation
(forward or reverse).
E. The four auxiliary contact blocks are mounted
to the reversing contactors. Aux 1 F and Aux R
are screwed to the end of the F contactor. Aux
2 R and Aux F are screwed to the end of the R
contactor. They are actuated only when that
contactor is actuated. Aux 1 F or Aux 2 R hold
the circuit closed after the start button is
pressed in and released. Aux R and Aux F act
as an electrical lockout when one contactor is
engaged. The electrical lockout prevents any
electrical power to the other contactor thereby
preventing dead shorts and equipment burnout.
F. The door interlock switch will shut off only the
secondary voltage when the door is opened. It
does not shut off the line voltage. The line side
of the transformer and the reversing contactors
remain hot.

board is glowing indicating readiness
mode. Everything else is idle.
• There is also power through the stop (N.C.)

Disposer will continue operating until either of the
following two conditions occur:
1. The stop switch is pressed, opening the circuit; no

power to the solenoid valve coil; OR
If plug-in pin is in "Auto" position, a second time
delay will interrupt power to the contactor coil after
approximately ten minutes run and allow the
contactor to open. Water flow will time out and stop.
The stop switch will override the "Auto" mode and
will stop the disposer anytime.
• Once the disposer is stopped (for at least ten
seconds), the alternator (a) in the P.C. board
will disengage Terminal 11 and engage
Terminal 12. Now, when the unit is next started,
power will be directed to R coil and the R
contactor will engage carrying line voltage to the
disposer causing it to run in the R (reverse)
direction. In this mode, now Aux 2 R and Aux R
are in play. The R light glows. The F light does
not.
• Once the disposer is stopped, there no longer is
incoming power at Terminal 7 at the P.C. board.
The incoming power at Terminal 2 now operates
the power to the solenoid coil.
• Every time the unit is restarted after a 10
second delay, the "a" (alternator) will alternate
its position from Terminal 11 (F) to Terminal 12
(R) causing the disposer motor to run opposite
its previous direction. If the disposer is restarted
without a 10 second delay, the disposer will run
in the same (previous) direction.

manually (approx. 0-10 minutes) by turning the
