SECTION V – AUTOWASH

HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS

The auto wash is an automatic device that controls washdown of the vacuum tank. The system is built to connect to an electrically operated water valve connected to the facility water source. The outlet of the water valve is connected to a spray nozzle mounted in the Ramvac vacuum tank. When the vacuum pumps are turned off, a “delay” timer is started and begins to count down. The “delay” timer is set for
2 hours and when the timer reaches zero, power is applied to the autowash solenoid for 2 minutes to supply water to the spray nozzle. If the vacuum system is turned on during that period, the auto wash process will immediately cease.
