INFINITANK SWITCH
The INFINITANK switch should only be turned ON when using an InfiniTank system. For all other vacuum tanks, the
INFINITANK switch should be turned OFF.
To access the INFINITANK switch, on the Technical screen, press ADVANCED >. This will open a new screen showing
the INFINITANK switch.
To enable the InfiniTank option, press the gray INFINITANK switch. The switch will turn green, indicating that the
InfiniTank option is now ON. Pressing the green switch will turn the InfiniTank option OFF.

SECTION V - AUTOWASH
HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS
The autowash is an automatic device that controls washdown of the vacuum tank. The system is built to connect to an
electrically operated water valve connected to the facility water source. The outlet of the water valve is connected to a
spray nozzle mounted in the Ramvac vacuum tank.
When the vacuum pumps are turned off, a “delay” timer is started and begins to count down. The “delay” timer is set for
2 hours and when the timer reaches zero, power is applied to the autowash solenoid for 2 minutes to supply water to
the spray nozzle. If the vacuum system is turned on during that period, the autowash process will immediately cease.
