PART 2 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
TRAC 878 TRAYWASHER
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
These installation instructions are intended for qualied
equipment installers.
PLACEMENT
Carefully uncrate the machine. Take caution not to
damage components which may be mounted on the
top or sides of the machine.
Set the unit in place and adjust the feet to level the
machine.
TABLING
Load and unload tables should be pitched towards the
machine to return excess water into the machine.
Fasten the tables to the load and unload side of the
machine. Most installations require fastening the turn-
down lip of the dish tables to the side of the machine
with athead countersunk screws.
The table design should provide horizontal clearance
of 30” for servicing. Install rack guides on exit table
using mounting studs provided.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Connect electrical lines sized for the correct voltage,
current and phase of the machine. These should
agree with the machine requirements indicated on the
nameplate and labels on the control panel.
Machines not provided with a single-point connection
require two separate electrical connections for:
1. pumps and control circuit
2. wash tank heater(s)
If an electrical booster is provided, connect the booster
directly to power source.
CAUTION:
Connections must be made to a circuit breaker or
fused disconnect as provided by the end-user and
required by local codes. A laminated wiring diagram
is inside the control panel.

TRAC 878 Technical Manual 2018 www.insingermachine.com 800-344-4802
MECHANICAL CONNECTIONS
All lines must be ushed prior to use to remove debris.
Connect a 110°F (for 70°F rise) or a 140°F (for 40°F
rise) water line for tank lls and booster as tagged and
noted on the installation drawings.
If machine is provided with steam heat connect the
steam lines and steam condensate lines as tagged
and noted on installation drawings.

ed on installation drawings.
If a booster is provided, a 110°F (for 70°F rise) or a
140°F (for 40°F rise) water connection is necessary. A
steam booster also requires a condensate line.
CAUTION:
As with any 3 phase system, an electrician must
check all motors for proper phasing, i.e., Pump
motors must be running in direction indicated by
arrow on housing.
CAUTION:
Drain lines must be as specied on installation
drawings. Drain line should be properly vented and
should have fall of not less than 1/4” to the foot of
proper ow.

Some area plumbing codes require drains to ow
into an open gap with an opening twice the diameter
of the pipe. Check with your local plumbing codes for
the type of drain connection required.
CAUTION:
Do not reduce the size of lines as specied in

TRAC 878 TRAYWASHER
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
DAILY CLEANING
The following cleaning procedures should be done
daily, at the end of the shift:
1. Remove all internal removable parts including
spray manifolds, scrap screens, drain overow
tubes, suction strainers and curtains.
2. Remove the end caps from the spray manifolds
and clean with the brush provided. Flush the
manifolds.

!
TRAC 878 Technical Manual 2018 www.insingermachine.com 800-344-4802
CAUTION:
V-cup seal on the drain overow tube may become
gummed which will not allow the overow tube to
seat properly. This will cause the drain to leak water.
Remove any build-up on the V-cup seal. When the
seal becomes worn, replace.
5. Clean suction strainers of build-up.
6. Clean tank level oats (1 per tank) with a plastic
abrasive pad. DO NOT use steel wool.
CAUTION:
Improper cleaning of suction strainers will cause
the pumps to cavitate. This will cause poor washing
results.
7. Clean curtains. When curtains are beyond cleaning
or torn they should be replaced.
8. Final rinse nozzles should be cleaned of matter.
9. Clean the photo-eye lenses with a damp, soft cloth.
10. Doors should be left open to allow drying of interior
surfaces.
WEEKLY CLEANING
1. The entire machine should be wiped down using
an industrial grade stainless steel cleaner.
2. Under the supervision of your detergent supplier
the machine interior must be properly de-limed.
CAUTION:
Level oats must be cleaned daily. Build-up of
grease and scum will cause faulty operation of tank
ll and heating system.
NOTE:
The water quality in some areas
requires de-liming to be done more
frequently. Contact your detergent
supplier for recommended de-liming
frequency.

MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
This section is intended for qualied service and/or
maintenance technicians.
The following maintenance should be conducted
quarterly:
1. Remove and clean the strainer screens on water
and steam lines. If the screens cannot be cleaned,
replace.
2. Inspect the condition of the ll solenoid valve seats
and diaphragms. Replace as necessary.
3. Inspect drain 0-Rings for leakage. Replace where
necessary.
4. Adjust conveyor chain tension using adjustment
bolts located at machine entrance chute.
MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
Solenoid Valve Disassembly (SK-5825)
1. Disconnect the power supply to the machine.
2. Turn o the water supply.
3. Remove cap on top of the coil. Remove the coil.
4. Remove the 4 hex bolts and lift bonnet from valve
body. Note positioning of spring and plunger.
5. Remove main piston.
6. Inspect for dirt, wear or lime build-up. Clean or
replace as required.
7. Reassemble in reverse of disassembly.
Line Strainer Disassembly
1. Shut o water supply.
2. Remove large hex nut on bottom of strainer body.
3. Remove strainer screen. Inspect and clean or
replace as necessary.
4. Reassemble in reverse of disassembly. Water ow
must be same direction as arrow on line strainer
body. Use new gaskets to insure a tight seal.
Pump Disassembly

eye the beam is broken. The Final Rinse timer (P/N
DE7-27) will energize the nal rinse solenoid. The
nal rinse water will then ow.
The Energy Saver timer (P/N DE7-28) is also reset
keeping the machine running.
Both timers are adjustable by turning the
potentiometer located on the timer board. The nal
rinse timer is adjustable between 0-60 seconds.

potentiometer indicates increase.
NOTE:
Correct temperatures are:
Prewash - below 140oF
Wash - minimum 150oF
Final Rinse - 180oF to 195oF
Troubleshooting Tank Temperatures
If the temperature does not change follow the below
procedures.
Electric Heat:
1. Check the temperature control board (P/N DE9-
251) for proper operation. If the temperature
control board is faulty, replace.
2. Verify tank heat contactor is working correctly. If
not, replace.
3. Verify all immersion heaters are working properly
and are not limed. If not, replace.
Steam Heat:
1. Check the temperature control board (P/N DE9-

Level System
The level control system consists of one level timer
(P/N DE7-35) and one level oat (P/N DE5-60) in the
wash tank and one level oat (P/N DE5-60) in the
prewash tank.
When the system is powered-up, the tank(s) will
begin to ll (assuming no water is in the tanks).
Once the level oat is actuated, the timer begins to
time-out and continues the lling process until the
tank(s) is full.
CAUTION:
Dirty level oats will cause the tank heat to energize
with no water in the tanks. Level oats MUST be
