Why won't our milnor e-p express spin?

1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
February 3, 2025

The Milnor E-P Express may not spin due to the following reasons mentioned in the context:

1. Motor Overloads or Door Interlocks: If any of these contacts open, even momentarily, the machine will stop. To clear this error, the issue must be resolved, and the Start button must be pressed.

2. Inverter Fault: If the microprocessor does not receive an input from the inverter within 14 seconds of starting the formula, the basket will not spin. To recover, press the Next key after resolving the fault.

3. Vibration Switch Tripped: If the vibration switch activates, the machine will stop. A recovery sequence will run, reversing the basket and filling the cylinder with water before attempting to resume operation.

These issues must be resolved before the machine can spin properly.

    ® ® Milnor washer extractors with E-P Express controls do not use a speed sensing device to verify that the basket has stopped rotating. Therefore, when power is first applied to the machine, at least 80 seconds must elapse before any further operations can be attempted. This provides suffi- cient time for the basket to coast to a complete stop if power was lost while the machine was in high speed extract and restored before the basket stopped.
