Loading and Using the Wash Sink
The Power Soak is a “random loading” system. This means that Power Soak items are not
racked for washing. Instead, they are randomly loaded one at a time.
As items are brought to the system and scrapped, they should be immediately dropped into
the wash sink.
If there is no movement of items in the wash sink, or if items are stationary above the
waterline, the system has been overloaded and some items must be removed.
It is very important not to overload the wash sink, as it reduces the effectiveness of the
wash action.
Some pots and pans stack for storage. This is referred to as “nesting” when it occurs
during a Power Soak wash cycle. Make sure that nested items are separated and loaded one
at a time. Nested items in the wash sink will not be properly washed.
Power Soak is a “continuous motion” system. This means that the system does not operate
on a set cycle time like cabinet-type washing systems. Instead, during normal operating
hours where washing is required, the system is (normally) left running. The Power Soak is
energy efficient, and it does not cause excessive wear to leave it running continuously.
Typically, it takes between three to fifteen minutes to wash items. Some heavily soiled or
burnt-on items may take longer to clean.
