Meiko K-200 User Manual

K-200 SERIES

Meiko's K-Tronic series rack conveyor warewashers
combine state-of-the-art advanced features with
economical and reliable operation. The K-Tronic series
features the lowest water consumption of any NSF-rated
rack conveyor warewasher, and makes use of an exclusive
pumped, heated auxiliary rinse zone to make use of the
rinse water a second time for pristine, consistent results.
Meiko’s exclusive Waste Air Heat Recovery System
reclaims the waste air generated by the machine as free
energy to pre-heat the incoming rinse water, saving energy.

Other standard features include computer-positioned wash
arms (and prewash arms, on models so equipped) that
are pre-assembled into easily-removed manifolds. Wash
nozzes are slotted and concave to minimize clogging, and
feature captivated end caps which can’t be lost during
cleaning. K-Tronic series machines also feature Meiko’s
Mike 3 electronic controller, and double-wall insulated
construction. As with all products synonymous with the
name “Meiko,” engineering excellence, manufacturing
quality and performance come to the forefront in the
K-Tronic series rack conveyors.

K-200 K-200 PW K-200 LPW

• Model K-200 includes a 6’ 4-3/4” chamber with one pumped wash section (with 3 hp pump), pumped auxiliary rinse section
(with 3 hp pump) and pumped final rinse section (with 3/4 hp pump).

• Model K-200 PW adds a 19-5/8” prewash section (with 3/4 hp pump) to the base K-200 model (overall length 8’ 1/2”).

• Model K-200 LPW adds a 31-1/2” prewash section (with 3 hp pump) to the base K-200 model (overall length 9’ 1/4”).

Exclusive Features:

• The K-Tronic series features the lowest water
consumption in the industry. Model K-200 consumes 0.35

gallons per rack.

• Pumped auxiliary rinse zone supplements the final rinse
zone, providing pristine, consistent results.

• Waste air heat recovery system reclaims heat generated
by the machine and uses it as free energy to preheat the
incoming rinse water, reducing energy consumption and
allowing hot-water sanitizing from a cold water supply (50°F).

• Double-wall insulated construction retains heat inside
the machine, conserving energy and improving the working
environment.

• Improved drive system permits fast, smooth conveyor
travel. Rack rail-mounted pawl system does not obstruct
the wash pattern.

• Mike 3 electronic controller for fully automatic operation
and advanced service diagnostics. Wash and final rinse are
activated only when a rack is in place to conserve water
and detergent.

DETAIL VIEW: VENT

The vent shroud MUST NOT be connected directly to the machine, as this
prevents room air from being drawn into the shroud. All dimensions shown
are recommendations only. Actual exhaust connection must be adequate
for the exhaust air and comply with all applicable national and local codes.

The waste air connection must be corrosion-resistant and frost-free. In
particular, provision must be made to prevent air temperatures of 32°F/0°C
or colder from reaching the machine at any time. A provision for draining
moisture from the waste air pipe is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED.

DETAIL VIEW: DRAIN

The machine is equipped with a 2-15/16" (75mm) OD vertical, gravity-fed drain. If possible, the
machine drain can simply be positioned directly above a 4" floor drain.

If a floor drain is not in the correct location, or if local codes require a trap, a 3" indirect drain
line may be attached using the supplied boot, clamp, and 3" NPT male adapter.

Choose a piping
material that:

• Complies with
any applicable
local and
national codes

• Is rated for use
with water
temperatures up
to 180°F/82°C

• Is rated for
3-12 pH to
accommodate
detergents and
rinse aid in the
drain water
