Water Drain Connection; Air Vent Connection; Liquid Soap Connection - Primus 6kg Installation And Maintenance Manual

WATER DRAIN CONNECTION

The machine is equipped with drain valve or optional with pump.
– for the machine equipped with drain valve; connect the drain pipe to the drain valve by means of included
clamp. The main drain pipe must have the capacity to be able to handle the total output of all connected
machines.
– for the machine equipped with drain pump; connect the end of the drain hose to a siphon or via a wash -
basin / sink. The hose must be laid out without kinks. The end of the hose must be not higher than
100 cm / 39" above floor level.

AIR VENT CONNECTION

WARNING!
!
WATCH OUT, VAPOURS ESCAPE FROM THE MACHINE THROUGH THE AIR VENT OPENING!
DO NOT COVER OR CONNECT TO ANYTHING!
On the backside, the washers are provided with an air vent opening of O.D. 76 mm / 3", fig. 3.1., pos. 9.
Do not cover the washer air vent opening. It is part of the back flow prevention water system. It also takes
care that the tub can not be pressurized by water intake and vapor of the hot water, this allows for proper
measuring of the water level.
For the safety of everyone make sure that unauthorized persons cannot reach the backside of the machine.

LIQUID SOAP CONNECTION

General : Always use liquid soap pumps with a flow rate that can bring the requested quantity in less
than 30sec.
Important : Start pumping immediately after the water valves are open. The incoming water dilutes the liquid
soap and brings it into the tub assembly.
Caution : The machines are produces in two versions:
Without liquid soap (standard version)
With liquid soap (according to the request)
Secure the location of the wiring and hoses in such a way that they can not be pinched, damaged
or rubbed. Before you start to use liquid soap, check with your liquid soap supplier whether
the liquid soap is harmless and inert to HD-PE and PVC material in order to avoid a problem
that manufacturer is not responsible for.
To rebuild the machine from the version „Without liquid soap" to the version „With liquid soap"
follow the service instruction no. 529621.
The washer has provisions for connecting external dosing of liquid soaps. On the back side, a plastic hose
connection part is present, fig.4.5.B to connect the liquid soap hoses. Depending of the number of liquid soap pumps
that will be used, drill holes (max. 5) of Ø 8 mm / 0.315" in the plastic hose connection part for each pump.
On the plastic hose connection part is also a nipple of Ø 12 mm / ½". Do not use this nipple. By default,
these nipples are closed. Drill only the ones that will be used. Take care that the drill particles are carefully
removed so that they can not clog up the hoses and openings.
