  • The wiring diagram for the partially completed machine delivered contains all necessary operational shut-offs known to the manufacturer MEIKO, as well as other known, necessary shut-offs and electrical connections.
  • The connectors are clearly indicated in the wiring diagram. Always make sure that these connections are implemented prior to commissioning the machine, and that they work reliably.
  • If any unknown sources of danger that are not described by MEIKO arise due to connecting system parts, you must eliminate them; this may potentially mean that you must operate the machine.

Delivery, shipping, installation and assembly

Delivery

  • Check that the delivery is complete immediately after receiving it by comparing it to MEIKO’s contract confirmation and/or the delivery note.
  • If necessary, complain about any missing parts immediately to the shipping company and notify MEIKO.
  • Check the entire installation for any damage that may have occurred during shipping.
  • In cases of damage for the shipping, inform inmediatly to MEIKO in writing, and also send a photo of the damaged parts to MEIKO.

Transport and installation

  • In order to avoid damage to the machine or life-threatening injuries during shipping of the machine, always observe the following instructions:
  • Loading, unloading and transportation tasks must be performed by qualified persons taking local occupational safety regulations and the following safety instructions into consideration.
  • For safe transport the machine parts are laid on a special square timber frame.
  • Incoming goods should only arrive on these wooden frames. The packing is specifically designed to allow the appliances to be moved safely and securely using a pallet truck.
  • The forks of the pallet trucks are lowered when the desired position of the appliance is reached (but must remain under the bearers).
  • The machine is standing on the wooden bearers of the packing.
  • There is no load on the foot cleats.
  • All the screws and bolts of the packing are now removed. e.g.Remove these and other screws and bolts.
  • Leave for the moment all the wooden bearers under the machine.
  • The following screw-drivers and sockets are needed.MEIKO-9675717-M-iQ-Flight-type-Dishwashing-Machine-fig-5
  • These screw drivers and sockets are available in all tool shops. A reversible electric drill with a lockable chuck is also necessary.
  • All the screws and bolts of the packing are now removed.
  • The appliance is next lowered onto the floor.You must take great care to ensure that the appliance is not jolted when it is lowered otherwise the foot cleats could be damaged beyond repair.
  • Please also ensure that the cleats are extended uniformly so that one set of cleats is not loaded more than the others.
  • If it is necessary to move the appliance along a wall, the appliance can be pushed along the wall on its cleats for a limited distance. (Be careful of gratings in the floor and changes in height!)
  • The appliance can also be easily moved flush to the wall by leaving the small longitudinal bearers under the appliance and moving the appliance backwards as shown in the picture.
  • If it is not possible to move the appliance with a pallet truck as described earlier, the longitudinal bearers can be removed by gently tilting the appliance after all the fasteners in the transport packing have been removed.
  • Lifting the appliance by the middle of the appliance frame will inevitably damage the appliance. A wooden batten should always be used to distribute the weight.
  • When the appliance is finally positioned, you must ensure that all the cleats carry approximately the same weight. An uneven distribution of weight can cause individual cleats to break.MEIKO-9675717-M-iQ-Flight-type-Dishwashing-Machine-fig-8

Important:

  • Horizontal adjustment of the machine by means of the vertically adjustable feet (spanner/wrench size 27) must be done with care to ensure that the weight of the machine is evenly distributed on the cleats.
  • This is absolutely essential in order to avoid displacement or stresses caused by loading on one side. These stresses can cause, for example, the vertical doors to jam or can prevent them from being water-tight when closed.
  • Please also read the chapter on “General safety instructions.

Installation and assembly

  • MEIKO has prepared an assembly diagram showing the machine dimensions and the connected loads in detail.
  • Assembly is completed by reference to the assembly diagram and, in general, by following the instructions of a trained MEIKO engineer.The installation must only be connected by suitably qualified personnel.
  • We accept no liability for connections carried out by unqualified personnel.
  • After unpacking, position the appliance as indicated in the assembly diagram and as the dimensions allow.
  • The appliance must be level and straight when erected.

Connection to the electricity supply

  • Work on the electrical part of the machine may only be undertaken by specialist personnel. The wiring diagram is located in the switch cabinet. This wiring diagram is part of the machine and therefore must not be removed.
  • The manufacturer’s plate with the connected electrical loads is located inside the switch cabinet.
  • General Electrical Regulations must be observed when connecting the machine to the power supply.

Only for USA / Canada:

  • The dishwasher must be / is installed in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, installed in accordance with the applicable requirements in the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70, Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), Part 1, CSA C22.1, and Standard for Ventilation Control and Fire Protection of Commercial Cooking Operations, NFPA 96.

Important:

  • The fuses on site must be selected to suit the local conditions and the appliance’s nominal current in such a way that back-up protection is guaranteed (Germany: VDE 0100).
  • The mains supply cables must be provided with fuses in accordance with regulations and must have a main switch (accessible on site or inside the appliance for operating personnel).
  • If the neutral conductor (N) is not grounded, a 4 phase main switch must be used. Cables connecting to the main power supply must be oil-resistant and sheathed and must not be lighter than an H 07 RN-F cable.
  • The potential equalisation connection must be carried out in accordance with the requirements of the local electricity supply company and all applicable local regulations (in Germany VDE 0100 Part 540 must be observed).
  • Connect the machines to the on-site potential equalization. The machine-side connection is located very close to the machine’s central switch cabinet / unit sheet on the undercarriage in the form of a screw and is marked accordingly. Where VDE 0160 / EN 50178 applies, there is a requirement that in areas of electrical equipment where line-side residual current protective circuit breakers (FI) are planned or installed, an FI type B device sensitive to all types of currents must be installed before the FI type A.
  • For the supply connection use a 5-pole terminal strip (L1, L2, L3, N, PE).
  • The electrical connection data, voltage, type of current, output can be seen on the manufacturers’ plates on the machine.
  • Please check the voltage.
  • All electrical connections must be made inside the electrical switch cabinet by means of marked screwed cable glands as in the circuit diagram and connected to the terminals and the fuses provided.

Temperature sensors / Temperature limit switches

  • All temperature limit switches installed for safety purposes and temperature sensors which are loosely rolled up in the electrical switch cabinet must be installed in the electrical switch cabinet by means of marked screwed cable glands as in the circuit diagram and positioned in the relevant place marked.
  • IMPORTANT: Do not kink the sensor tube or the temperature sensor will be damaged and be unusable.

Here the proper location

The temperature safety limit switch button

  • The temperature safety limit switches switch off all phases and interrupt all connections carrying current to the relevant heating circuit when they switch off.

  • They are intrinsically safe. That means that if the capillary tube is broken, the relevant heating circuit is switched off.They are intrinsically safe.

  • Due to the internal construction of the thermostat it is possible that the thermostat switches off at a temperature under 0°C.

  • If a temperature safety limit switch has triggered during operation, the reason for its action must be found and eradicated. (In particular, the condition of the heater must be checked).

  • The temperature safety limit switch must only be exchanged after the defect has been rectified and the heating system has cooled down.

Fresh water connection

  • The water-carrying pipes and components are not frost-proof. If the temperature of the place where the appliance has been installed can fall below 5°C, suitable precautions for protection against frost must be taken.
  • Information on nominal widths, cross sections etc. relate to the appliance.
  • Installations on site must be dimensioned to match local conditions (e. g. cable arrangements, access lengths). The terminal positions of media and energy connections to the machine depend on the method of construction (normally at a distance from the connection points on site). The connections must be made by approved technicians. All parameters for the media and energy supplies must be maintained at a constant level during all the operations.
  • Fresh water connections must be carried out in accordance with the requirements of the local regulations (e.g. Germany DIN 1988). A stop tap must be installed in all ingoing water supply pipes and must be accessible to operating personnel. A tap capable of isolating the appliance from the mains (in Germany in accordance with EN1717) installed. Fresh water connections must be carried out in accordance with the requirements of the local regulations (e.g. Germany DIN 1986). A shut-off device, fine filter, backflow prevention device and pipe ventilator must be available on-site for the use of water softeners or partial or total demineralization units. Unless otherwise specified, an on-site flow pressure between 2.5 and 5 bar is required.
  • The water supply to the appliance is normally to be found under the discharge.
  • It is possible to clean the dirt screens without turning off the main water supply.
  • The water supply is automatically cut off when the lower component in which the screen is located is unscrewed.
  • This enables the screen can be easily cleaned during maintenance.
  • (This cut-off function can also be used as a stop-cock when servicing the machine.)
  • Information on the water quantities, quality and temperatures needed can be found in the installation plan.
  • The water quality must also comply with the requirements of the Commercial Dish-Washing Association. (http://www.vgg-online.de.)
  • To ensure optimum functionality of the heat recovery system the inlet temperature of the water line, which supplies the clear flushing unit, is to be kept as low as possible (max. 12°C).
  • Warmer inlet water affects the exhaust air conditions.
  • If valves on the appliance are also controlled by fresh water, a minimum flow pressure is necessary.See “Regulations and Standard Values” for the necessary pressures and quantities.

Hot steam, pump hot water

  • Pipes and components designed for the conveyance of steam and condensate are not frost-proof. If the temperature of the place where the appliance has been installed can fall below 5°C, suitable precautions for protection against frost must be taken.
  • The machine is installed ready for operation, i.e. only the cables and pipes need to be connected to the machine. Please use therefore seals which are appropriate for steam installations.
  • The machine’s steam installation must be equipped with an un-pressurised sloping condensate return system on site.
  • All condensate traps needed for the operation of the machine are built into the machine.
  • Pipes into the condensate traps must not be insulated.
  • No further steam traps must be installed in the building’s condensate pipes.
  • If, in exceptional circumstances, the condensate is to be removed in an upwards direction by pressure, this fact must be notified to MEIKO at the time of ordering. In this case the heating tubes will be modified. The modifications will include a condensate evacuator. When the machine cools, this condensate evacuator collects condensate which would otherwise fall onto the floor.

Maintenance of the condensate trap

  • Open the condensate trap.
  • Remove the heating element and, if necessary, the dirt filter.The filter and housing may then be gently cleaned.Carefully clean all sealing surfaces before re-installation. Always use new seals.

Attention!

  • The installation of pipework and fittings is specially designed for a particular nominal pressure range. You must ensure that the operating pressure in the building does not exceed the permissible nominal pressure of the fittings and machine components (information on the latter can be found on the manufacturer’s plate in the switch cabinet).
  • Information on nominal widths, cross sections etc relate to the appliance.
  • See the installation drawing for details.
  • Installations on site must be dimensioned to match local conditions (e.g. pipe, hose, cable routing, access lengths).
  • The terminal positions of media and energy connections to the machine depend on the method of construction (normally at a distance from the connection points on site). These connections must be made by authorised experts. The general instructions must be observed when connecting the steam pipes.
  • All parameters for the media and energy supplies must be maintained at a constant level during all the operations.
  • Integration with the building-side main line must always be affected from the top and in line with the current state-of-art. All necessary shut-off and control components (including condensate reservoirs) have been built into the appliance. The pressure drops for the heating system in the machine is 30 kPa for saturated steam and 100 kPa for hot water pump.
  • switch off the dishwashing machine using the main machine switch in hazardous situations or in the event of accidents involving the heating system. This will cut the power supply to the machine.
  • risk of scalding or suffocation when approaching large amounts of steam escaping from the machine. In this case, do not close the steam inlet on the machine’s steam shut-off valve, close the locally available shut-off valve.
    Switch off the machine to shut it down and contact the authorised MEIKO service technician in the event that small amounts of steam or water escape from the machine.

Waste water connection

  • Connect the waste water line to the building’s sewage system in compliance with local waste disposal regulations. Use only approved wash additives!
  • The waste water connection must be carried out in accordance with the requirements of DIN 1986 and all applicable local regulations.
  • All discharge pipes for water from the machine must be connected to the kitchen waste water system via an adequately dimensioned odour trap.
  • When selecting materials for pipes, sealants etc, you must bear in mind that the temperature of the water discharged from the machine can be 70 – 75° C. Furthermore, the pH values can lie between 3 and 12 depending on the nature and concentration of the detergent; in other words, the materials must be resistant to both acids and alkalis. Connect waste pipes on site in accordance with the instructions on the installation plan.

Exhaust air connection of the appliance

  • The following must be observed only if a machine exhaust connection is required
  • Air control equipment must be designed to comply with local regulations (for example, in Germany VDI 2052) and must in all cases be water-tight and corrosion resistant.
  • The values indicated for exhaust air temperature and humidity can increase under certain operating conditions (e.g. standby).
  • The machine exhaust may contain slight amounts of aerosol and may need to be conducted away by taking appropriate measures near the outlet.
  • When letting exhaust air into the room, particular attention must be paid to ensure that the specifications for the temperature and relative humidity and thus the volume load are valid for uninterrupted washing. Otherwise a temporary increase of blowing temperature, relative humidity or volume load is possible, depending on the operating state.
  • The discharge air connection must be connected into the building’s exhaust air system as in the installation plan.
  • The hot, moist air from the machine must be removed from the washing-up kitchen. In order to achieve efficient extraction, you must ensure that the overpressure on the machine ducts or the negative pressure of the building is adequate.

Installation and connection of dosing units

  • When operating the machine it is necessary to use an industrial detergent and rinse agent. You may only use detergents and rinse agents approved by the relevant authority and which are also suitable for dish-washing appliances. The safety instructions relating to their handling, dosing, storing and use must be particularly observed.
  • The dosing of the detergent and rinse agent should be done by a suitable piece of equipment; the relevant regulations must be observed when installing such equipment. A manual detergent dosing is not reccommended. Under no circumstances must detergent or rinse agent be allowed to enter the water mains.
  • Your chemical supplier knows all the relevant regulations and the injection points favoured by Meiko.
  • The terminal “XD” supplies the detergent dosing components with electrical power.
  • (More detailed information can be obtained from the appliance’s circuit diagram.)
  • Other connections must not be used.
  • Dosing units or other equipment must not be installed in the electrical switch cabinet.
  • As there is a very large range of dosing equipment available in the market, it is impossible for us to give here detailed instructions on their installation. Your detergent supplier knows the ideal installation method for his product.
  • A mixing chamber has been provided for the rinse agent connection. This is to be found in the clean water inlet for rinse water downstream from the boiler.
  • The connection for the rinse agent supplier is provided in this mixing chamber.
  • The thread for the connection is R 1/8”.

Detergent spraying system

  • If a direct detergent spray system is used such as is offered by a number of chemical suppliers, special safety precautions must be taken because of the aggressive nature of the highly concentrated detergent.
  • It is particularly important to take precautions to prevent the detergent spray from escaping when the dish-washers vertical doors are opened!
  • As these systems are installed by chemical suppliers, Meiko can accept no liability for any damage to machines or injury to persons which might arise.

Machine settings for initial commissioning by the service engineer

Commissioning

  • In order to avoid damage to the installation and the injury and death of persons when commissioning the installation, the following points must be observed without fail:
  • Any necessary initial tests to parts supplied by sub-suppliers, such as heat pumps or other equipment, must be carried out. More detailed information, if required, can be found in the relevant Instructions for Use.
  • The installation may only be commissioned by suitably qualified persons observing the safety instructions.
  • Before initial startup, check that any tools and parts not belonging to the installation have been removed.
  • Check whether any escaping liquid is removed.
  • Activate all the safety systems and door switches before commissioning.
  • Check that all screw connections are tight.
  • Please also read the chapter on “General safety instructions “.
  • Commissioning and instructions will be provided by technicians specially trained by Meiko. The operator may only use the installation after training has been provided.

Chemical product settings

  • The correct settings for the quantity of detergent and rinse agent depend on the product used. The relevant chemical supplier can install the correct setting.

Works to be carried out before initial commissioning

  • All the points in this section must be observed before initial commissioning!

Water-carrying pipes

  • All pipes must be thoroughly flushed out. The heating system must not be switched on when this is done (remove the fuses) in order to prevent the heating elements from operating when the system is dry. All dirt collectors must be cleaned afterwards.

Steam pipes

  • All pipes must be thoroughly flushed out. When doing so, all control valves must be fully open and all condensate traps removed. All dirt collectors must be cleaned afterwards.

Connection to the electricity supply

  • Tighten all electrical terminals in the switch cabinet; check that electrical plugs/jacks are firmly in position.
  • All motors must be check for the correct direction of rotation.
  • Carry out a visual check on all electrical equipment (e.g. switches, cables, housings, covers).
  • Carry out functional tests on all electrical switches.

Internal regions of the machine

  • Ensure that there are no foreign bodies inside the machine (e.g. cleaning rags, loose bolts/washers/nuts, tools, packaging materials etc.).
  • ATTENTION! Ensure that friction cannot occur where moving parts pass close to fixed parts. (e.g. rails, water deflectors and others.
  • Ensure that all wash pipes, wash systems, rinse arms, screens and filters, tank covers, waste pipes, waste screens and swing valves on the inlet and waste pipes are installed. Ensure that all the parts are correctly installed!

Washing dishes with the dish-washer

  • Once all installation work on the machine is complete (Electric, water, waste water, hot steam, air) and all settings have been entered by trained specialists (see above) the machine can be commissioned.

Basic safety measures during normal operation

  • The installation may only be operated by trained and authorized persons who are familiar with the operating instructions and who are capable of working in accordance with them!

Before switching the installation on, check and ensure that

  • Only authorized persons are present in the installation’s operating area.
  • Nobody will be injured when the installation starts!

Before commissioning, each time

  • Inspect the installation for any visible damage and ensure that it will only be operated in a perfect condition!
  • Report any defects to the foreman immediately!
  • Remove any materials or objects not required for the operation of the installation from the installation’s operating area!
  • Check and ensure that all the safety equipment is operating perfectly!

Option GreenEye

  • This technology enables a reduction of significant quantities of fresh water and rinse agent during periods with low usage, usually at the start and end of the main rinsing period.

Function:

  • A wash ware detection switch at the feeding section of the M-iQ identifies whether or not the full belt width or merely parts of it are occupied with wash ware (tracks, highlighted by green, illuminated strips above the feeding section). The control also identifies gaps on the transport belt between tableware. According to the gaps identified in the supply area the control signals are forwarded to the fresh water final rinse so that fresh water final rinse is merely activated for the tracks with wash ware.
  • Depending on the passage width a belt-fed washing machine is equipped with either two or three tracks which detect the utilisation of the conveyor in terms of capacity to control fresh water final rinse.MEIKO-9675717-M-iQ-Flight-type-Dishwashing-Machine-fig-26
  • Gaps are additionally “analysed”. The green illuminated strips at the machine feeding section indicate the ideal track or conveyor placement to users and whether or not it is sensible to position wash ware on parts of the transport belt (tracks) on the basis of the low utilisation of the available capacity. This operating mode enables to cut the fresh water and final rinse water consumption by up to 50%.
  • This is made possible by a two/three-part final rinse system allowing you to load the different tracks with wash ware independently of each other.MEIKO-9675717-M-iQ-Flight-type-Dishwashing-Machine-fig-27

Cleaning

Safety instructions for cleaning

  • The tank heating elements may still be hot after the tank has been emptied. There is therefore the danger of burns when the machine is cleaned manually.
  • Electrical components, switch cupboards and other electrical components may not be sprayed with a water hose or high-pressure cleaner.

Cleaning during the washing process

  • The infeed sieve can be emptied and cleaned during the washing process if necessary. MEIKO-9675717-M-iQ-Flight-type-Dishwashing-Machine-fig-33MEIKO-9675717-M-iQ-Flight-type-Dishwashing-Machine-fig-34

Self cleaning/Draining the dishwasher

The precondition for draining / self cleaning of the dishwasher is, that all doors and covers are closed and the machine is switched off! MEIKO-9675717-M
-iQ-Flight-type-Dishwashing-Machine-fig-35

Self cleaning program

  • First of all, the pre-clearing tank is drained. Then the content of the individual tanks is transferred, the tanks are cleaned and drained, until the whole machine has been drained.

Draining

  • Pressing the “Draining” button drains all the tanks.
  • For best possible efficiency, the heat recovery system is regularly and automatically cleaned at the same time.
  • Always follow this approach:MEIKO-9675717-M-iQ-Flight-type-Dishwashing-Machine-fig-36MEIKO-9675717-M-iQ-Flight-type-Dishwashing-Machine-fig-37
  • The following options are supported for interim, partial or complete fast draining with automatic refilling of all the tanks:

PAR (Pumped auxil. rinse) refilling

  • If the dishwasher is heavily soiled, you can drain and refill the pump rinse agent during a break between cleaning.
  • A single filling of pump rinsing agent will completely clear the soiling.

Refill WT

  • This drains and refills all wash tanks.

Refill WTV

  • This drains the pre-clearing tank and refills all tanks.

Refill all tanks

  • This drains all the tanks on the dishwasher, pre-clearing tank, washing tanks and pump rinse tank, and refills all tanks.MEIKO-9675717-M-iQ-Flight-type-Dishwashing-Machine-fig-38 MEIKO-9675717-M-iQ-Flight-type-Dishwashing-Machine-fig-39 MEIKO-9675717-M-iQ-Flight-type-Dishwashing-Machine-fig-40

Care of stainless steel surfaces

  • We recommend cleaning the stainless steel surfaces only when needed with cleaner and care products suitable for stainless steel.
  • Lightly soiled parts can be wiped with a (possibly damp) cloth or sponge.
  • Be sure to wipe dry after cleaning to avoid traces of scale. Use demineralised water if possible.
  • Do not use aggressive cleaning or scouring agents.
  • The care products must not attack the stainless steel, form deposits, or cause discoloration.
  • Never use cleaning agents that contain hydrochloric acid or bleaches based on chlorine.
  • Never use cleaning equipment that you have used previously by non-stainless steel to avoid external corrosion.
  • Aggressive external influences due to cleaning and care products that evaporate in the vicinity of the dish-washing machine, or caused by direct application, can lead to machine damage and put the material at risk (e.g., aggressive tile cleaners).

Caution!

  • Respect the safety rules of the manufacturers on the original packing as well as on the safety data sheets.

Check list after cleaning

  • After cleaning the machine ensure that all parts have been replaced correctly. Check that the following parts are present and in the correct position:
  • Tank cover screens
  • Screen baskets
  • Rinse pipes
  • Pump rinse pipes
  • Curtains
  • Check that the correct number of wash pipe end caps is present
  • The dish-washer is now ready for the next shift.The dish-washer is now ready for the next shift.

IMPORTANT!

  • Do not use a foaming detergent for dish-washing by hand for pre-cleaning close to the dish-washer.
  • Foam can cause malfunctions in the dish-washer and a poor wash.

Dosing of the detergent/rinse agent

  • The quantity of detergent needed to be added into the wash tank or wash tanks is the quantity of detergent that ensures that all dishes etc leave the dish-washer in a clean condition.
    It is impossible to give information on quantities here as the quantity depends on:

  • the dosing system (liquid, powder, block, spray; etc.)

  • the amount of soiling

  • the drying time

  • the preheating (of the dishes, for example)

  • the quantity of starch present

  • the water quality

  • the type of detergent used (a disinfecting detergent or otherwise, etc.).

  • There can also be differences between one chemical supplier and another.

  • The quality of the finished dishes can also be influenced by the speed of the machine’s conveyor.

  • We recommend that you ask your chemical supplier to regulate the quantity settings on the machine.

Descaling the machine

  • Rinsing with very hard water (for example caused by seasonal variations in water hardness or by improper maintenance) can cause ugly scale deposits in the machine which, apart from the unattractive appearance of the rough, white deposits, have almost no influence on the wash quality.
  • However, the lime-scale deposits on the wash tank heating elements and in the rinse water flow heater are much more serious. An excessively thick layer on the heating element acts as a thermal insulator and so prevents the transfer of heat from the heating element into the water. As a result the heating element overheats and burns out.
  • Lime-scale deposits can be removed with special scale removal products (ask your chemical supplier). However, these products contain acid and are very aggressive. They should therefore not be used too frequently and must on no account be used in a too high concentration as they can attack and destroy not just the lime-scale deposits but also other parts of the machine.
  • When carrying out this work the Instructions for Use and the Hazard Warnings for the lime-scale remover must be strictly observed.
  • After removing lime-scale, the machine MUST be thoroughly flushed out and emptied to ensure that all residues from the lime-scale remover have been neutralised. The machine should then be refilled and allowed to run for at least 15 minutes.
