Model CBW1026 Cage and Bottle Washer

General Specifications

1.0 General Description

The Model CBW1026 Cage and Rack Washer is a high capacity spray cabinet washer
capable of processing any items which can be placed inside the washing compartment. It is
specifically designed to clean and sanitize animal cages, bottles, pans, and other items ancillary to
the care of laboratory animals. Several sizes are available, as well as many optional features. The
Model CBW1026 incorporates a large number of innovative and unique features to ensure
thorough, efficient cleaning, as well as many features unique to our design.

2.0 Dimensions
(W”X H” X L”) (W”X H” X L”)

*Note: Dimensions are maximum chamber opening sizes. Actual load size must be smaller to
allow for clearances. Custom chamber sizes can be provided as required.

3.0 Reciprocating Spray Headers

3.1 Vertical and horizontal headers, surrounding the load, shall be supplied and equipped with
machined jets. Jets shall deliver an elliptical spray pattern for optimal impact and coverage to the
load. No rotating spray arms shall be utilized.

3.2 Headers shall be interconnected and mounted to a carriage having non-lube wheels
constructed from single pieces of Delrin® homopolymer.

SMC Model 1026 Engineering Specification Rev. 100812 Page 1 of 12

3.3 Carriage shall be moved reciprocally from end to end within the cabinet by a non­proprietary pneumatic device. No electric motors, gearboxes or cable capstans shall be used.

3.4 All cable sheaves shall be Delrin® homopolymer with Stainless Steel axles.

3.5 Failure of the header system to traverse the machine interior within the allotted time shall
result in a Fault Condition. (Blocked Header; see par. 6.5.3)

4.0 Self-Flushing Debris Strainer

4.1 All treatment solutions shall be pumped through a specially designed strainer that ensures
that the spray jets shall not be plugged by entrapped debris.

4.2 Strainer shall be designed with orifices significantly smaller than those in the jets, such that
debris that is suspended in the treatment fluids and which could lodge in the jet orifices shall be
trapped prior to delivery to the header system.

4.3 After each treatment phase any particles that have been trapped are flushed to drain.

4.4 Drop screens, which are subject to overflow and subsequent failure, and which continue to
expose refreshed treatment fluids to previously entrained debris, shall not be acceptable.

4.5 Strainer shall be easily removable with no tools via a sanitary-style clamp. System shall be
completely self-regulating and require routine inspection and maintenance no more than once per
week under typical operating conditions.

5.0 Automatic Temperature Regulation and Guarantee

5.1 The Final Rinse or Wash Phases shall be selectable as Guaranteed Temperature Phases.

5.2 Timing of a Guaranteed Temperature Phase shall not begin until the solution temperature
has reached the set point (typically 180F or higher), thus ensuring that the load has been subject to
the proper temperature for the entire time set.

5.3 Failure of any Guaranteed Temperature Phase to reach the setpoint temperature within the
allotted time shall result in a Fault Condition. (Temperature Failure; see par. 6.5.4)

6.0 Safety and Certifications

6.1 An OSHA-style Emergency Stop button shall be installed on the operator control panel.
This switch shall be hard-wired to a safety stop relay, which when de-activated shall interrupt all
power to the outputs of the machine, thus satisfying the Dept. of Labor, Occupational Safety and
Health Administration standards for industrial machinery.

6.2 A Magnetic safety switch(es) on the door(s) shall reliably ensure that all treatments stop
instantly if the door(s) is opened.

SMC Model 1026 Engineering Specification Rev. 100812 Page 2 of 12

6.3 All outputs external to the electrical box shall be low voltage DC, Intrinsically Safe by
the definition of OSHA and National Electrical Code (NEC).

6.4 All devices and components that consume electrical power shall be UL listed and/or
approved, and shall bear NEMA (US Standards), IEC (International Standards) or other
recognized International ratings appropriate for the use intended. The control assembly shall be
produced in a UL Panel Shop and shall be UL listed.

6.5 Fault Conditions shall be annunciated on the operator interface screen, and shall be sent
to the RS232 interface port or the Ethernet port for printing and/or data acquisition. At least five
(5) fault conditions shall be so identified.

6.5.1 Emergency Stop - Depression of the Emergency Stop Button shall reset the
machine and display a fault message that identifies the source of the emergency stop
signal.

6.5.2 Door Open - Lack of positive door closure shall cause the machine to enter Pause
mode, from where the current cycle can be recovered. Fault message shall indicate which
door is at fault, if the machine is so equipped.

6.5.3 Drive Blocked - Failure of the drive to traverse the cabinet in the time allowed
shall cause the machine to enter Pause mode and shall cause the screen to display the
Drive Blocked message.

6.5.4 Sump Heat - Failure of the sump to reach the desired temperature in the expected
time shall cause the machine to enter pause mode and shall cause the screen to display the
Sump Heat Fault message.

6.5.5 Fill Fault - Fill Fault message shall be displayed and Pause mode shall be entered
whenever the sump fails to fill in the allotted time.

7.0 Pneumatically Operated Valves

7.1 All automatic ball valves shall be controlled by pneumatic operators. Electric-motor-

operated ball valves shall not be acceptable.

7.2 All automatic water and steam control valves shall be direct-operated pneumatic types.

Pilot-operated solenoid valves or any valve that incorporates a diaphragm-type sealing system
shall not be acceptable.

SMC Model 1026 Engineering Specification Rev. 100812 Page 3 of 12

8.0 Microprocessor Control

8.1 The treatment schedule and all other machine functions shall be controlled by a readily

available, non-proprietary, industrial style modular Automation Direct 205 Series programmable
controller. The controller and all modules shall be readily available and technical support shall
be available from the PLC manufacturer at no charge, without any need to pay any fee to stay in
product support.

8.2 Module replacement for the I/O system shall be easily accomplished with no tools and no

wiring disconnection or connection.

8.3 The control system shall be programmed in simple ladder logic.

8.4 A 6” C-More Color Touch Screen shall provide complete operator interface, diagnostic

and programming capability. No special skills or knowledge shall be necessary to set up and
control all machine functions. No Touch Screens less than 6” shall be used.

8.5 Diagnostics shall be available from the Color Touch Screen, which will allow direct

access to all I/O points for complete diagnosis of all machine systems.

8.6 Treatment schedules and cycle phase selections shall be programmable from the Color

Touch Screen. PIN screens shall be available at the discretion of the supervisor to lock out access
to the cycle phase programming functions. All timers in the program, as well as all cycle phase
temperatures, shall be accessible and settable through the operator interface screen, with no
necessity for the connection of either an auxiliary programming device or a modem/telephone
line connection.

8.7 All controls shall be of industrial design and type, in order to resist the extreme

environmental demands of the washroom. All electrical wiring, operator interface controls and
circuits shall be protected in accordance with NEMA, UL and NEC standards.

9.0 Insulated Exterior

9.1 The exterior of the machine shall be insulated with rigid insulation. This insulation shall be

an integral part of the machine, designed to maintain the high temperatures required in the washing
chamber and to limit radiation loss to the surrounding air.

10.0 Manuals & Documentation

10.1 A full set of manuals explaining machine operation and PLC operator controls shall be

provided.

10.2 A hard copy of the PLC ladder diagram shall be available at no additional charge. Like

all component parts, the Software for the unit shall be Non-Proprietary and available to the
customer as a technical support function at all times and forever.
