The standard treatment cycle consists of a pre-wash, an agent wash, a recirculated rinse, a non-recirculated fresh hot tap water rinse and a hot air dryer system. The agent wash and recirculated rinse treatments are recirculated under pump pressure. The cycle, once activated, is completely automatic.
Multi-Cycle Color/Graphic Micro-Computer Control System
A solid state Allen Bradley PLC control system monitors and automatically controls all process operations and functions. Cycle phase times and temperatures, and other key process parameters are programmable and can be locked in by supervision.
Personnel Safety System
An emergency cable system is provided at both the load and unload ends of the unit to terminate all process and conveyance functions. All emergency conditions are audibly and visually annunciated to the operator.
Wash And Rinse Treatment Temperature Guarantee
The wash and rinse temperatures are guaranteed to insure that minimum treatment temperatures are attained and maintained. Should the temperature guarantee set points not be attained or maintained, the conveyor belt will temporarily stop until the treatment solution reaches the set-point temperature. All temperature guarantee variances are annunciated to the operator.
Final Rinse Temperature
Provides that a minimum final rinse temperature is attained and maintained. Should the final rinse temperature guarantee set point not be attained or maintained the variances are annunciated to the operator and the conveyor belt is stopped.
Hydraulic Hold Down System
Spray header throttle valves are properly sized and positioned to hydraulically hold down light plastic cages and steel pans to the conveyor belt.
Water Conservation
The hot tap final rinse water is sprayed through the jet system and collected in the rinse tank. The water is used for the recirculated wash, rinse and pre-wash for water and energy conservation.
Side-Hinged Chamber Access Doors
Removable, side-hinged doors are provided for easy access to the chamber interior. A full tempered glass, door is provided for observation of the treatment process.
