The discharge of the machine is drained into a stainless steel holding tank.
The system senses the discharge temperature with a probe and adds the
required amount of cold water to lower the discharge temperature to below
140°F before discharging tot he building’s drain system.
An additional header is provided in the center of the chamber to increase
the washing capacity of the unit. This header can be removed to
accommodate larger items to be washed. This option increases the overall
washer width by 8 inches.

General Machine Operation
Series 1800 Washers
Automatic Seven Phase Treatment Cycle
Operation
Treatment Schedule
The standard treatment cycle consists of a Prewash, Wash 1 and Soak,
Wash 2 and Soak, Rinse 1, Rinse 2, Rinse 3, and an Exhaust. All cycle
phases are adjustable from 0-60 minutes. All wash and rinse treatments are
recirculated under pump pressure. The cycle, once activated, is completely
automatic. Additional cycle treatment phases are available.
At the start of the processing period, the user places the load to be cleaned
n the chamber, closes the door, selects the desired cycle and presses the
cycle start button. The washer automatically proceeds through the
treatment process and alerts the user when the process is complete. The
user then opens the chamber door and removes the cleaned load.
PREWASH
Hot water from house supply fills the sump or water remaining in the sump
from Rinse 3 of the previous cycle is recirculated through the jet spray
system under pump pressure and pumped to drain upon completion. Phase
time and temperature is user programmable form 0-60 minutes and from
120 - 190°F respectively.
WASH 1
Hot water from the house supply fills the sump and the wash agent is
automatically added. The treatment solution is recirculated through the jet
spray system and is pumped to drain upon completion. The phase time and
temperature are user-programmable from 0 to 60 minutes and from
120 - 190°F respectively.
Soak Option: A subsequent soak period may be programmed from
0-60 minutes, to permit the detergent solution to work on the load
before proceeding to the second wash and/or rinse treatments.
WASH 2
Hot water from the house supply fills the sump and the wash agent is
automatically added. The treatment solution is recirculated through the jet
spray system and is pumped to drain upon completion. The phase time and
temperature are user-programmable from 0 to 60 minutes and from
120 - 190°F respectively.
Soak Option: A subsequent soak period may be programmed from
0-60 minutes, to permit the detergent solution to work on the load
before proceeding to the rinse treatments.
RINSE 1
Hot water from the house supply fills the sump and is recirculated through
the jet spray system under pump pressure and pumped to drain upon
completion. The phase time and temperature are user-programmable from
0 to 60 minutes and from 120 - 190°F respectively.
61301604086 1–11
General Description
RINSE 2
Hot water from the house supply fills the sump and is recirculated through
the jet spray system under pump pressure and pumped to drain upon
completion. The phase time and temperature are user-programmable from
0 to 60 minutes and from 120 to 190°F respectively.
RINSE 3
Hot water from the house supply fills the sump and is recirculated through
the jet spray system under pump pressure and pumped to drain upon
completion. The phase time and temperature are user-programmable from
0 to 60 minutes and from 120 - 190°F respectively.
Non-Recirculated Option: Hot water from house supply under house
pressure is sprayed directly through a separate jet system and is
drained upon completion. Phase time is user programmable from
0 - 60 minutes.
EXHAUST or VAPOR REMOVAL
The unit stands idle for a sufficient period of time to allow the facility vent
system to remove vapor from within the chamber. The phase time is userprogrammable from 0 to 60 minutes.
TEMPERATURE GUARANTEE SYSTEM:
All phases of the wash cycle except Soak and Exhaust have the option to
select a Temperature Guarantee Mode. When selected, this causes the unit
to fill and spray water normally for that phase, without allowing the main
timer to start counting down until the set-point temperature has been
attained. If at any time the sump temperature should fall below the set-point,
the main timer stops until the temperature exceeds the set-point. Failure to
do so in a set period of time generates a “too long to heat” alarm.
