Preparing the System
Filling the System
The STATUS light will flash indicating that the unit is powered and waiting to be
started. At the beginning of each day or shift, fill the tanks with water that is
metered to approximately the correct operating temperatures:
• Wash tank (115°F / 48°C)
• Rinse tank (75°F / 24°C)
• Sanitizer tank (75°F / 24°C)
All tanks should be filled to, but not above, the “waterline” marks.
Wash Fluid
How you fill your wash tank (the tank with the water jets) may vary depending on
how you dispense chemicals.
Direct Dispensing
If your system directly meters chemical concentrate into the wash tank, fill the
tank using the faucet with water that is approximately 115°F / 48°C. You can use
the hot and cold taps on the faucet to adjust the water to the appropriate
temperature. A good rule of thumb is that the water should be hot to the touch
but not so hot that it is uncomfortable.
When the tank is full you may manually add chemical. If your system is equipped
with the Power Soak Chemical Dispensing system. Chemical will be dispensed
when the unit is started.
Metered or Pre-Mixed Dispensing
If your system is filled via a metered chemical dispensing system the introduced
water temperatures should be approximately 115°F / 48°C. Many times you can
use the hot and cold taps on the faucet to adjust the water to the appropriate
temperature. Some systems are supplied with a set of mixing valves to pre-mix
the water to the correct temperature.
Alerts
The PS-225 controller can help reduce labor in the fill process by signaling the
team that a fill is nearly complete. This allows a team member to begin filling the
tank, and return to other duties. When the tank is within a few minutes of
completing its fill, the blue and green beacons will flash in an alternating pattern.
When the top liquid level sensor detects that the unit is full, the pattern will speed
up to communicate urgency.
