GENERAL DESCRIPTION
INTRODUCTION
The Castle 7620 Washer is a compact unit designed
to clean surgical instruments, laboratory glassware,
metalware and utensils. It may be installed on a work
counter, under a counter, or on a freestanding base
cabinet.
The unit features a 20"W x 20"D x 15"H load area
within its wash chamber. A fixed track assembly and
a removable grid are provided as standard
equipment. When in position, the grid will support a
20" x 20" (or smaller) utensil basket, instrument tray,
or assorted loose items. With the grid removed, the
fixed track assembly will support a compatible roll-out
basket grid, or various sized Spindle Headers.
Wash and rinse spray treatments are provided by
means of two spinning manifolds, one located above
and one below the load area. When used, a Spindle
Header coupled directly to the high pressure
plumbing system effectively subjects the interior of
ware to the wash and rinse spray treatments.
Processing cycles are controlled by a programmable
microprocessor-based controller that will store four
pre-programmed cycles. The operator needs only to
select and start an appropriate cycle.
Standard cycle phases provide for a Prewash, a
Wash, and two successive tap water Rinse
treatments followed by a third and final Rinse of
purified water (DI). As an optional treatment,
instrument lubricant (MILK) may be incorporated into
the final Rinse.
All treatment solutions are used once and drained.

PROCESSING CYCLE DESCRIPTION
The following is a description of the cycle phases
available with the 7620 Washer, in the order in which
they are programmed to function.
Prewash
Reservoir tank is filled with cold water. When
tank is full, phase timing starts. Load is
subjected to a recirculated, unheated water
spray for the purpose of removing as much
soil as possible prior to the use of the Alkali
Wash detergent. When timing ends, the
reservoir tank is drained. (Use of hot water
instead of cold may be provided as an
option.)
The duration of this phase (0 - 600 seconds)
is programmed at the Controller.
Wash Reservoir tank is refilled with heated water.
Phase timing starts - detergent is
automatically dispensed into the tank. Load
is subjected to a recirculated detergent
solution spray for the purpose of
loosening/removing any soil that remains
following the Prewash phase. Solution
temperature is maintained by the reservoir
heating system. When timing ends, the
reservoir tank is drained.
The duration of this phase (120 - 600
seconds) and solution temperature (140-180
degrees F) are programmed at the Controller.
Rinse-1Reservoir tank is refilled with hot water.
Phase timing starts. Load is subjected to a
recirculated rinse water spray for the purpose
of removing any residue of detergent solution
and loosened soil. Water temperature is not
maintained by the reservoir heating system.
When timing ends, the reservoir tank is
drained.
The duration of this phase (0 - 600 seconds)
is programmed at the Controller.
Rinse-2Reservoir tank is refilled with hot water.
Phase timing starts. Load is subjected to a
second recirculated rinse water spray for the
purpose of removing any residue of detergent
solution and loosened soil. Water
temperature is maintained by the reservoir
heating system. When timing ends, the
reservoir tank is drained.
The duration of this phase (0 - 600 seconds)
and water temperature (140-180 degrees F)
are programmed at the Controller.
Final Rinse
Reservoir tank is refilled with purified (DI)
water. Phase timing starts. Load is
subjected to a recirculated purified water
spray for the purpose of removing any rinse
water contaminants. Water temperature is
maintained by the reservoir heating system.
If water temperature should drop below
setpoint, timing will be suspended until the
water is heated back to setpoint. When
timing ends, the reservoir tank is drained.
The duration of this phase (60 - 600 seconds)
and water temperature (140-180 degrees F)
are programmed at the Controller.
Final Rinse Options:
•Water supply may be tap water instead of purified
water.
•Instrument Lubricant may be dispensed into the
recirculating rinse water. This would occur during
the final 20 seconds (recommended) of the
phase.
CoolingWasher stands idle for a 30-second period of
draining and cooling.
A processing cycle will end and the
alarm will sound at the conclusion of
Cooling.

Turning the POWER ON-OFF/RESET Switch to OFF
will immediately terminate a processing cycle. After
termination, the Switch should be turned back to the

Depending on the situation that led to termination, the
operator may now (1) restart the washer, or (2)

draining, turn the POWER ON-OFF/RESET Switch
back to OFF.
OVERFLOW MODE
In the event that a solenoid or a reservoir tank level
sensor malfunctions during one of the water fill
periods of a cycle, a condition could result in which
water overflows the reservoir tank and begins to fill
the chamber. Should this occur, the rising water will
be detected by the Overflow Sensor. Once detected,
an alarm will sound, the Washer's drain pump will be
turned on, and the following display will appear:
Water will then be discharged through the drain
system until the water level reaches the low level
sensor in the reservoir tank. At that point, the alarm
will shut off and the Washer will attempt to restart the
"FILLING" stage of the phase.
If the attempt fails and the overflow condition re-
occurs, the Washer will go back into the
"OVERFLOW MODE". Water will again be
discharged until the low level sensor is reached. The
Washer will then attempt to restart the cycle once
more.
The Washer will continue discharging and refilling in
an attempt at self-correction for a period of three (3)
minutes. Following this period, if the overflow
condition persists, the unit will shut down (The alarm
will continue to sound.).
The operator should then:
6. Press the STOP Function Key (The alarm will
shut off.)
7. Press the DRAIN Function Key to ensure the
chamber and reservoir tank are empty.
8. Discontinue Washer operation and notify qualified
service personnel.
If desired, the operator may
discontinue Washer operation at any
time during a ongoing OVERFLOW

MAINTENANCE
DAILY
INSPECT-CLEAN
Inspect exterior and interior surfaces of the Washer.
Clean with mild detergent and a soft, damp cloth.
Give particular attention to the Drain Screen and the

CHECK LIQUID SUPPLIES
Check the Wash detergent supply container. Refill or
replace if required.
Check the Instrument Lubricant supply container if
the unit is equipped for that option. Refill or replace if
required.
MONTHLY
DESCALE RECIRCULATION SYSTEM
Descaling the recirculation system prevents a buildup
of mineral deposits on the reservoir tank, heating
coils, etc. The procedure involves:
A. Removal and cleaning of the two Spinning
Manifolds.
B. Treating the recirculation system with a descaling
agent.
Contact your Castle service
representative for an appropriate
scale remover - and follow directions
for its use.
Procedure: Spinning Manifolds
1. Remove the two Spinning Manifold Assemblies
from the Washer chamber. Each is secured to its
plumbing fitting by means of a 3/4-18 Hex Head
Bearing Housing.
2. Disassemble the two 5/16-18 Hex Head Screws
from the ends of each Spinning Manifold
Assembly.
