Installing the Optional Cool Drain Water Kit

An optional Cool Drain Water Kit is available to reduce the water temperature of
the drain water in installations where hot drain water is not permitted. A supply
of cold water must be available. It is recommended that the cold water
temperature is colder than 54°F (12°C). Warmer water temperature will cause the
drain temperature to be higher. The cold water supply must be capable of a flow
rate of 3.5 GPM (13.2 LPM) and a pressure of 20-120 PSI (138-827 kPa). Hot
drain water will be mixed with cold water during drain operations. To install the
optional Cool Drain Water Kit, refer to the figure below and the following
instructions.

To install the optional Cool Drain Water Kit:

1.

Disconnect power to the washer.

2.

Remove the back panel of the washer.

3.

Attach the water valve assembly to the rear flange of the base using the screws

provided.

4.

Connect the wires coming from the water valve assembly to the mating

connector in the wiring harness of the washer.

5.

Connect the cold water supply to the water valve assembly. Do not allow the

tube to kink when the washer is placed into its operational location. If
necessary, replace the straight fitting on the cool water valve with the supplied
elbow.

6.

Replace the back panel.

7.

Attach the hose from the valve to a Twin Inlet High Flow Air-gap suitable for

dishwasher applications. This Air-gap may be obtained from a plumbing
supply store.

8.

Attach the drain hose from the Glassware Washer to the other inlet of the Air-

gap.
