CHAPTER 2

PREREQUISITES

Before you install the Glassware Washer, prepare your site for installation. Carefully examine the location where you intend to install the Glassware Washer. You must be certain that the area is level and of solid construction. In addition, a hot water source, a drain, a purified water source (if applicable), and an electrical source must be located near the installation site. A cold water source is required when the optional Cool Drain Water Kit is installed.
Refer to Appendix C: Glassware Washer Specifications for complete Glassware Washer electrical and environmental conditions, specifications and requirements.
Hot Water Requirements
An existing hot water supply may be used as the hot water source for your Glassware Washer. Labconco recommends the inlet water temperature to be greater than 120°F (49°C) to fully activate powdered detergents and raise the glassware temperature to achieve fast and complete drying. Hotter water will produce better washing results.
Water pressure must be between 20-120 psi (138-827 kPa) at the washer and provide a minimum of 1.25 gallons (4.7 liters) per minute flow rate.
A shut-off valve should be installed in the water supply line plumbed to the washer. The hot water inlet valve on the Glassware Washer is equipped with a female 3/8 NPT fitting. A compression fitting is provided that connects to .375″ (9.53mm) OD copper tubing.
Purified Water Requirements
To use purified water for the rinse cycles, a purified water supply is required. The washer can be connected to an in-house, pressurized, purified water tap; a water purification system; or a non-pressurized purified water container.

Product Service 1-800-522-7658

Chapter 2: Prerequisites
The purified water system must be provided with supply piping of sufficient size to permit at least 0.9 gallons (3.4 liters) per minute of flow. Tubing with an internal diameter of at least .375″ (9.53 mm) is recommended. The purified water inlet valve on the washer is equipped with a plastic hose barb connection to accommodate .375″ (9.53 mm) ID flexible plastic or rubber hose. Use a spring or band hose clamp to secure the hose to the hose barb connection. The hose barb connection may be removed from the valve to expose a male 3/4″ – 11-1/2 NH hose coupling. Rigid plastic, tin-lined, or stainless steel tubing and fitting can be connected to the washer fitting.
An optional connection kit (Labconco P/N 4592200) is available for connecting .375″ (9.53mm) OD plastic tubing to the purified water inlet valve. The purified water system connections must be airtight to prevent the washer pump from pulling air instead of water.
If the purified water is stored in a carboy, at least 3.4 gallons (13 liters) must be available for each rinse. If all the purified water is not available at the start of a wash cycle, but instead is produced concurrently with the wash cycle, the production rate must permit at least 0.9 gallon (3.4 liters) per minute to be delivered to the washer.
Electrical Requirements
Undercounter and Freestanding models, are hard-wired directly into a junction box using conduit. A 20 Amp circuit breaker or fuse is required for models rated at 115V (60 Hz) or 230V (50/60 Hz).
High voltage models are designed to operate at 230 VAC, single phase. It will operate safely at nominal 208 VAC, however the heater output will be reduced proportionally. As the operating voltage drops below 230V a boost transformer can be used if higher voltage is preferred.
If your Glassware Washer is converted to a Mobile model, a dedicated electrical outlet is required. A 20 Amp circuit breaker or fuse is required for models rated at 115V (60 Hz) or 230V (50/60 Hz). 115V models are equipped with a 20 Amp NEMA 5-20P plug. 230V models are equipped with a 15 Amp NEMA 6-15P plug. It may be necessary to remove the plug and install a different plug to match the available receptacle.

Chapter 3: Getting Started
If you did not receive one or more of the components listed for your washer, or if any of the components are damaged, contact Labconco Corporation immediately for further instructions.
Removing the Shipping Skid
After you verify the washer components, move your washer to the location where you want to install it. Then, follow the steps listed below to remove the shipping skid from your washer.
To remove the shipping skid:
1. Remove accessories and loose items from inside the washer. Cut tie wraps and remove racks.
2. Gently place the washer on its back, positioning the washer on the shipping carton or other cushioning material.
3. Remove the four screws fastening the skid to the washer. 4. Retain the shipping skid until you test the various features of the washer.
Washer Installation
After you remove the skid from your washer, you must install leveling feet on the bottom of the washer. If you have an Undercounter or Freestanding model, then you must level the washer and center the washer door. If you have an Undercounter model, you must also secure the washer to the underside of the countertop or worksurface.
Installing the Leveling Feet
1. Locate the holes on the bottom of the washer where the four skid-fastening screws were previously attached.
2. Thread the four leveling feet into the holes. 3. Carefully move the washer into an upright position. Be careful to distribute
the weight evenly on the leveling feet when setting the washer upright. 4. Reinstall racks.

11

Chapter 3: Getting Started If you have an Undercounter model, level it side- to-side by placing a short level on the inside top edge of the door. See the figure below for the placement of the level on the washer. Check the level front to back by placing a level on the rail that the lower rack slides on.
Centering the Washer Door
When the washer is level, check the operation of the washer door for alignment with the washer tank. If the door is not centered in the opening, you must center the door by adjusting the corresponding leveling foot. (For example, if the door hits the right side of the tank, raise the right front corner of the washer. If the door hits the left side of the tank, raise the left front corner of the washer.)
Securing the Washer to the Countertop
If you have an Undercounter Glassware Washer, two screws have been provided to attach the front of the washer to the underside of the countertop or work surface. After the washer is leveled in its final position and the washer door is properly centered, install the two screws as shown in the figure below to stabilize the unit and prevent it from moving.

Chapter 3: Getting Started
Connecting the Purified Water Supply
To prevent valve and pump clogging, flush all of the water lines for your purified water supply source prior to connecting the washer to the water lines. The valve to which the purified water supply must be connected is located on the back of the washer base. The back panel of Freestanding models must be removed to access the valve. Refer to the previous figure.
The purified water inlet valve is equipped with a plastic hose barb connection to accommodate .375″ (9.53 mm) ID flexible plastic or rubber hose. The hose connection may be removed from the valve to expose a male 3/4″ ­ 11-1/2 NH hose coupling. Rigid plastic, tin-lined, or stainless steel tubing and fittings may be connected to the washer fitting.
At least 0.9 gallon (3.4 liters) per minute of purified water flow is required. At least 3.4 gallons (12.9 liters) of purified water must be available for each pure rinse. A .375″ (9.5 mm) ID pipe is the minimum recommended.
If you do not use purified water during the rinse cycles, you may disable the purified water pump. Refer to Controller Set-Up in this section.
If the washer has been converted to a Mobile model and is moved to various locations, and if purified water is used, provisions must be made to use a flexible hose from a source of house-purified water. If a carboy is used, place the carboy on a carboy cart and move it with the washer. Be careful not to let the hose kink or become damaged.
To connect the purified water supply:
1. Make certain the purified water supply piping has been thoroughly flushed prior to connecting it to the washer.
2. Make the necessary plumbing connections to properly connect the purified water supply to the washer.
NOTE: If the purified water source is a carboy, complete steps 3 and 4.
3. Connect the purified water source through either the top or the bottom of the carboy, as illustrated in the following figures. If the purified water supply feeds directly from the carboy top, make certain the hose is submerged under the water line. Attach a weight to the end of the tubing to keep it from floating on top of the water and possibly allowing air into the system.
4. Make certain the top of the carboy is vented to permit proper flow from the carboy to the washer. Make certain that all of the connections on the purified water system are air tight. The pump must not pull air instead of water. Make certain the supply hose is not crimped.

!

Petroleum based compounds may degrade certain internal washer components. Always thoroughly rinse petroleum based

compounds from glassware before placing in the Washer.

Non-foaming powder or liquid detergent formulated for labware washers, in conjunction with adequate hot water, is essential for clean glassware. Labconco LabSolutions Detergents are recommended. See Appendix A for ordering information. Use detergents sparingly. Too much detergent, particularly with softened water may cause etching of the glassware. This appears as a permanent cloudy film on the glassware.

Fill the main detergent cavity three-fourths full if the water hardness grains per gallon (GPG) for your water measures 0-4 GPG (soft water). Fill the detergent cavity completely if your water measures 4 GPG or higher (medium to hard water). If you use the pre-wash cavity stamped in the washer door, fill it completely.

Note: To open the detergent dispenser, gently slide the white tab sideways. The tab may break if it is pulled upward or perpendicular to the door.

Store detergent in a cool, dry place. Immediately replace the detergent container lid after dispensing. If lumps develop due to exposure to moisture, discard the detergent according to local regulations.

Filling the Neutralizing Acid Dispenser
A mild or weak acid may be dispensed from the neutralizing solution port to neutralize the detergent alkalinity. Labconco LabSolutions Neutralizing Acid Rinse is recommended. See Appendix A for ordering information. The neutralizing acid rinse is dispensed during the first rinse. To avoid dispensing neutralizing acid during a purified water rinse, the total rinses should be greater than the number of pure rinses. The dispenser holds approximately 170 ml and should be checked and replenished as needed. To fill the neutralizing acid dispenser, refer to the figure above and follow the instructions below.

CHAPTER 5

MAINTAINING YOUR WASHER

Under normal operation, your Glassware Washer will require little routine maintenance to keep it functioning properly.
Maintaining the Stainless Steel Interior
The interior of your Glassware Washer is type 304 stainless steel. Never use metal scouring pads on the stainless steel interior. Metal scouring pads can scratch or leave metal chips that will rust.

To maintain the appearance and quality of the stainless steel interior, perform the following tasks as needed:

Wipe the outer edges on the inside door panel to remove particles and residue that occur during loading.
Use a sponge sprinkled with non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner to gently wipe the washer tank and door to remove surface discoloration caused by exposure to halogenated compounds or steel parts. In some cases, the finish may be slightly dulled by this action.

If your water has a high mineral content, film or spots may develop on the washer interior. If the procedures listed above do not eliminate the film or spots, you may run your washer through the special cycle below.

To remove film or spots from the washer interior:

1. Remove all glassware from the washer. 2. Choose the Glass Program, Steam OFF, Pure Rinse OFF, and set the drying
time to zero. 3. After the first fill is complete, open the washer and carefully pour one cup of
bleach into the bottom of the tank.
