The supply cable fitted is the minimum required for connection to the mains supply. Site conditions may
vary with additional length of cable run, encapsulation in trunking, bunched with other cables etc.
Should this apply, the electrician must alter the cable accordingly. The system should be connected to
a suitable 3-phase fused isolator providing at least 3mm separation in all poles.
The system should be connected to a 30A fused isolator providing at least 3mm separation in all poles.
The below illustrates typical fuse ratings for an ambient temperature of 25 to 35°C. Should the
environment temperature be greater than this, adjust accordingly.
The supply to the machine must also be protected by a 30mA RCD.
WARNING: This machine must be earthed.
If the supply cord becomes damaged it must be replaced by qualified electrician in order to avoid a
hazard.
Phase Sensor : the machine has a phase sensor to prevent the incorrect operation of the machine. In the
event of the phases being in the incorrect orientation the machine will not operate and a "incorrect
phase" message is displayed on the display screen.
Operator Control Panel. This panel comes prewired and needs to be mounted approximately, within 1
meter of where the operator will be working. The control panel needs to be set back from the operating
area to prevent damage to the buttons or screen.
DO NOT USE SHARP ITEMS TO OPERATE THE BUTTONS OR SCREEN.
Connecting the macerator.
The macerator motor must be a 3 phase machine to enable it to operate with the Ecofast Mini
Dewaterer. Before connecting a NON Ecofast macerator, please discuss with Ecofast.
1. The motor cable is identified as cable M1 from the dewaterer.
2. The Lid Safety interlock (FC1) needs to be wired into the main enclosure control panel
as detailed in the wiring diagram (EC060048A). This safety interlock should needs to
switch at 24voltsDC.
3. The solenoid valve (YV3) is 24vDC and the cable is prewired to the control panel and
the push terminals need to be connected to the solenoid spade terminals.
4. The Flow valve (SP2) is 24vDC and the cable is prewired to the control panel and the
push terminals need to be connected to the solenoid spade terminals.
TESTING
Check finally that all supply connections are correctly made and soundly fixed, that nothing has been
left in the grinding chamber, that the rotor is free to rotate and that the baffle interlock is in the correct
position.
