Drain Connection - Labconco SteamScrubber 4010010 Series User Manual

If you are not using purified water during the rinse cycles, you may disable the pure
water system. Turning off the pure water system will not allow programing or operation
of wash cycles with pure water. If your pure water supply is pressurized with sufficient
flow, you may disable the purified water pump. Refer to Section 6: Accessories
Screen.
If the washer has been converted to a Mobile model and is moved to various locations,
and if purified water is used, provisions must be made to use a flexible hose from a
source of house-purified water. If a carboy is used, place the carboy on top of the
washer or a carboy cart and move it with the washer. Take care not to let the hose kink
or become damaged.
If the purified water source is a carboy, the washer's self-priming pure water pump will
draw water from either the top or the bottom opening of the carboy. If the purified water
supply feeds directly from the carboy top, make certain the hose is always submerged
below the water line to eliminate air entry into the system. Verify the carboy is vented to
permit proper flow from the carboy to the washer. Verify that all of the connections on
the purified water system are air-tight.

Drain Connection

Before continuing with this section, verify that the drain meets the requirements detailed
in Section 2: Drain Requirements.
Verify the drain line and connection meet all local plumbing codes.
The drain hose is installed at the factory. The hose provides a flexible coupling to the
drain piping and can be secured with a spring or band hose clamp (A band hose clamp
is provided with your washer).
Tubing or pipe 5/8" (1.6 cm) ID or larger should be used for the drain.
Do not route the drain to an elevation more than 36" (91 cm) above the pump discharge.
Do not reduce the size of the drain plumbing.
Do not remove the hose from the ties on the rear of the glassware washer.
If connecting to a sink drain the use of an air gap is strongly recommended for all
installations to prevent the siphoning of wastewater into the washer. See Fig. 4-4.
The drain hose can be routed to either a sink or a floor drain. If you route the drain hose
to a sink drain without using an air gap, the highest point of the drain hose must be
above the highest water level in the sink. See Fig. 4-5.
