3 General
This machine is controlled by a microprocessor-based program control unit. There are many advantages to this
equipment, including:
• Timing, levels and temperatures are controlled with great precision and flexibility
• Detailed information on wash programs, machine status and operations, wash times and temperatures can be ac-
cessed in plain language on the large display screen
• It is possible for the user to create new wash programs and to adapt wash programs precisely on the basis of ex-
perience and to suit various types of textile, degrees of soiling etc.
• A very high level of machine safety through continuous monitoring and built-in safety interlocks
• The program control unit has a reader for ”smart cards”. A smart card is a plastic card, the size of a credit card,
with an electronic memory chip inside it
Smart cards allow the user to:
• Transfer wash programs between a PC and the machine, or from one machine to another
• Run wash programs straight from a smart card
Great flexibility during program operation:
• Rapid advance both forwards and backwards in the wash program
• Change temperatures, program module lengths and extraction speeds directly, during program operation
• Start a different wash program at any time during program operation
