The installation and initial operational check of the PS-
275 must be performed only by licensed and certified
plumbers and electricians.
Be sure to follow all applicable national and local
electrical codes when installing the electrical supply
and/or a new breaker. DO NOT connect the machine
using a power cord and plug or an extension cord of
any kind.
Please refer to the detailed installation instructions that were sent with the
Power Soak PS-275.
Electrical Requirements
The electrical requirements of the PS-275 are on the serial number plate
located on the front corner of the wash tank, adjacent to the control panel
enclosure and inside the enclosure itself.
• All Power Soak machines have a single point electrical connection,
and a dedicated circuit is required. A ¾” seal tight conduct knockout
is provided on the rear of the control panel.
• The machine is completely pre-wired and tested at the factory, and
a hard-wired connection from an appropriate power source junction
box is required.
• The installer is to provide a disconnect that should be incorporated
in the fixed wiring. Note: In areas where the walls are washed this
should be a waterproof style disconnect.
• Properly sized watertight conduit, fittings and parts are required, as
well as the appropriate gauge wire.
• If the machine is a “left-to-right” unit, the power source junction box
should be located at the left end of the machine. (The opposite
would be true for a “right-to-left” machine.) Ideally, the junction box
should be located on the wall directly behind the pump motor and
control panel.
• If the machine requires 3 phase power, the motor rotation can be
tested by holding down the start button for 10 seconds, with no
water in the machine. This will momentarily rotate the motor to see
the direction that it will be turning when it is started. Verify the motor
rotation matches the arrow on the pump housing.
