which may have been removed during installation or servicing.
WARNING – CHEMICAL BURN/EYE INJURY HAZARD:
Washer chemicals are caustic andcan cause adverseeffects to exposed tissues. Donot get ineyes, on skin,
or attempt to ingest by mouth.
• Read and follow the precautions and instructions on the chemical label and in the Material Safety Data Sheet
(MSDS) prior to handling the chemical, refilling the chemical containers, or servicing the chemical injection
pumps and lines.
• RefertoMSDSforappropriatePersonalProtectiveEquipment(PPE)wheneverhandlingchemicalsorservicing
chemical injection pump and lines.
CAUTION– POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE:
After utilities are connected to washer, slowly remove the protective adhesive paper from the exterior cabinet
panels to reduce the risk of static discharge.
When removing adhesives from stainless steel, use a small amount of non-flammable cleaning solvent. Rub in

Listing of Warnings, Cautions, and Symbols Uncrating/InstallationInstructions 122998-049
CAUTION– POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE (cont'd):
Always position Bottle Washing Cart (option) over the manifolded coupling system before operating unit. If
manifold is not positioned correctly, damage may result and unit will be unable to effectively wash load.
Always position Central Header Manifold (option) over the manifolded coupling system before operating unit.
If manifold is not positioned correctly, damage may result and unit will be unable to effectively wash load.
Alwaysleave plenty ofspace between loadand doors. Leaningload against doorswill damage doorsand also
prevent doors from opening.
Handle pH Probe with care: pH Probe is fragile. Hitting or rubbing pH probe may damage probe sensor.
Use clamps to tighten quick disconnect clamps. Pump damage may result if air passes through union.
Do not remove adhesive tape from corner spring traps before installation of doors is completed.
Before operating equipment, make sure that pump motor is rotating in proper direction.
Before removing plugs on Air/Oil tanks, make sure doors are in closed position and all door outputs are de-
activated.
IMPORTANT: Checkthelocaloccupationalhealthandsafetyregulations,aswellaselectricandplumbingcodes,for
any special requirements that may pertain to installation of this unit.

2.1 Before Installing
Equipment
SITE PREPARATION
1. Review permissible environmental conditions: This washer is designed to
give optimal results in an environment where maximum relative humidity is
less than 85% and maximum operating temperature is 104°F (40°C).
2. An optional seismic anchorage system is available for high risk seismic
zones.
3. Review installation requirements:
a. Clearance - Clearance space shown on Equipment Drawing is neces-
sary for easy installation and proper operation and maintenance of
washer (see Equipment Drawing 122998-061).
b. Barrier wall flange(s) installation - Refer to Equipment Drawing 122998-
061 for installation.
c. Utility service lines:
• Toallowserviceonunitwithoutshuttingoffbuildingsupplylines,shutoff
valves(notbySTERIS)shouldbeinstalledonsteam,airandwaterlines
tounit(seeFigure 2-1). Shutoffvalvesmustbecapableofbeinglocked
in OFF position only.
• Disconnectswitch (not by STERIS) mustbe installedon electric supply
line (see Figure 2-1).
• Disconnect switches must be marked as the disconnecting device for
the equipment and must be capable of being locked in OFF position
only.
• If machine is installed next to other equipment, shutoff valves and
disconnect switches should be located so that service can be shut off
to one piece of equipment at a time.
• Thedisconnectdeviceoftheequipmentmustbewithineasyreachofthe
operator (preferably no more than 3 feet [1 m] away from equipment).
• Utility service requirements are shown on Equipment Drawing.
d. Electricity:
• Unit requires either 208 V, 60 Hz, 3-phase, 3-wire; 380/400/415 V,
50 Hz, 3-phase, 3-wire; or 480 V, 60 Hz, 3-phase, 3-wire power.
For 208 V,60 Hz,a50 Adisconnectswitch andAWG#6 (16 mm)wire
is recommended.
For 480 V, 60 Hz, a 30 A disconnect switch and AWG #10 (6 mm) wire
is recommended.
For 380/400/415 V, 50 Hz, a 20 A disconnect switch and AWG #12
(4 mm2) wire is recommended.
If electrical supply is 380 V or 400 V, locate the 1000 VA transformer,
inside the main electrical box, and connect red wire of primary side to
380 V (H2) tap connection.

• Check Equipment Drawing or Identification nameplate (located on
frameofmobilemechanicalcore,abovemainelectricalbox,(seeFigure
3-2) for proper voltage and amperage.
• This unit is overvoltage (Installation Category II).
• Thisequipmentisnotintendedtobeconnectedclosetothemainsupply

• Thisequipmentneedstobeinstalledaccordingtolocalelectricalcodes.
4. This is a Class 1 equipment
A protective conductor connection is essential for the safe operation of the
equipment.Checkforpresenceofprotectiveconductoratequipmentterminal
and verify if connection is well secured inside terminal with proper torque
requirement.
• Torque requirement for supply conductor terminals:
(L1-L2-L3): 0.89 -1.03 lb/ft (1,2 - 1,4 N•m)
• Protective conductor terminal:
16.96 - 29.50 lb/ft (23 - 40 N•m)
5. Make sure washer is placed, as shown on Equipment Drawing, in correct
relation to building supply lines. If unit is not at installation site, refer to
Section 3 for proper moving instructions.
6. If washer is pit-mounted:
• Pit must be clean.
• Pit drain piping should be level with pit floor to allow water to drain.
