If water hardness tests at greater than 5 GPG, install the HTS-11 into the water
line before the dishmachine's incoming water connection point using copper pipe.
Observe proper inlet/outlet water directions. A water shut-off valve should be
installed to allow access for service. Plumb from the HTS-11 outlet to the incoming
water connection point using copper pipe (or order the flexible hose kit offered by
the manufacturer).
5 GPG
If water hardness tests at 5 GPG or less, install the water supply line to the
dishmachine's incoming water connection point using copper pipe (or order the
flexible hose kit offered by the manufacturer). A water shut-off valve should be
installed to allow access for service.
The manufacturer recommends the installation of a water pressure regulator in the
incoming water line to ensure proper flowrate at all times and offers these devices as
options. See the Plumbing Options page.
Do not confuse static pressure with flow pressure. Static pressure is the line pressure
in a "no flow" condition (all valves and services are closed). Flow pressure is the
pressure in the fill line when the fill valve is opened during the cycle.
The manufacturer also recommends the installation of a shock absorber in the
incoming water line and offers these devices as options. This prevents line hammer/
hydraulic shock—induced by the solenoid valve as it operates—from causing damage
to the equipment. See the Plumbing Options page.
The dishmachine's drain is a gravity-discharge drain. All piping from the 1 1/2" NPT
connection on the wash tank must be pitched (1/4" per foot) to the floor or sink drain.
All piping from the machine to the drain must be a minimum 1 1/2" NPT and must not
be reduced. There must also be an air-gap between the machine drain line and the
floor sink or drain. If a grease trap is required by code, it should have a flow capacity
of 5 GPM.
