2. Bruteless Setup
Setting Up Your Bruteless Vessel
Setting up your Bruteless hash washing station is simple. A little planning and forethought will
go a very long way to ensure that your operation is set up as efficiently as possible. Before you
proceed, make sure you are fully aware of where your water source is and where you intend to
drain your waste water. Once a vessel is full of water, ice, and your material, it is can be very
difficult if not impossible to move until drained, unless using a PurePressure dolly.
There are a large variety of accessories and configurations that are possible with Bruteless hash
washers. This guide will explain first how to set up a single vessel, and then show you how to
set up a Base, Pro, or Commercial system.
Note: Ensure the work surface or
table you are using is rated for the
vessel you plan to use - a full vessel
may weigh up to 650lbs (for a full 65
gallon vessel).

3. Bruteless Assembly Instructions
Assembling Your Bruteless System is Easy
The following instructions will show you how to set up your
Bruteless hash washing system. This covers the Base, Pro, and
Commercial setups.
While each system is designed to be used in a certain way,
there are opportunities to customize the set up to your liking as
you become more familiar with using it. Please refer to the
accessories on section 2.2 for more information on what kinds
of accessories and addons are available.
We strongly suggest laying out each gasket, tri-clamp,
accessories, and other components on a table before beginning
setup to ensure that you have all of the parts you’ll need in one
place.
Before running your first wash, you should first fully clean your
vessels, fittings, and hoses. Please see section 4.6 for detailed
cleaning instructions.
Lastly, if you need any help with assembly or want to talk to
someone on the team, please contact us at
[e-mail] or give us a call at 720-446-9565
during normal business hours.

3.1 Base System Assembly
Bruteless Base System Assembly Instructions
●Set up the platform and allow for 29” minimum platform height (from the floor to the
platform standing area). This is required for the downspout to clear the lower
filtration vessel. The false bottom goes into the upper vessel.
●The drain port needs to be oriented to drain into the lower filtration vessel.
●Place second vessel on triangular dolly and position directly under drain and skim
ports. The lower filtration vessel shall contain the micron filtration bags.
●Attach a ball valves and 90 degree elbows to the skim and drain ports to use both for
draining.
○There are options & alternatives for the skimport, sight glass, and temperature
gauge. You can also utilize the skim port for a site glass or filling.
○Do not use the temperature gauge in the upper skim port, it can damage the
temperature gage prope.
●The rear port is typically used for filling the vessel with a hose & ball valve assembly
from your pump.
○Alternatively it can also be an additional port for a sight glass or temperature
gauge. If you choose to use both the temperature gauge and the sight glass
top filling the vessel will be required.
●Be sure all additional unused ports are capped and ball valves closed before filling.
**REMEMBER TO CLEAN YOUR EQUIPMENT BEFORE USE*

Note: Gaskets must be used at every port
connection in order to form a seal between
the ports. The sanitary clamp holds the port
assembly together, hand tighten only.

UPPER WASH VESSEL SETUP
●Set up the platform and allow for 29” minimum platform height (from the floor to the platform standing area). This is required
for the downspout to clear the lower filtration vessels. The false bottom goes into the upper wash vessel.
●Gaskets must be used at every port connection in order to form a seal between the ports. The sanitary clamp holds the port
assembly together, hand tighten only.
●The drain and skim ports need to be oriented to drain into the lower filtration vessels.
●Attach 90 degree elbows & ball valves to the skim and drain ports.
●The sight glass goes on the larger 2” port.
●Attach the temperature gauge directly underneath the skim port.
●The rear port is used for filling the vessel with one of the two pumps.
○First attach the check valve on your fill port. The flow arrow should point toward the vessel.
○Attach the elbow, and Wye fitting next. The 2 ports on the Wye fitting also get check valves to prevent cross
contamination from one water supply to another. The flow arrows should point toward the vessel.
○Attach the two hoses to the splitter fitting. One will come from your supply water pump. The other will come from your
reclaim / waste water pump.
○The reclaim water pump is also used to recirculate water from the filtration vessels back to the upper wash vessel
during operation. This pump is also used to transfer the waste water to a drain or collection tank after the batch is
completed.
●Be sure any unused ports on the wash vessel are capped and ball valves closed before filling.
LOWER FILTRATION VESSEL SETUP
●Place the lower vessels on the assembled triangular dollies and position under the drain and skim ports. These filtration
vessels will contain the stack of micron filtration bags during operation.
●Attach a single ball valve, 90 degree elbow and hose to the drain port of each vessel. Those two hoses are attached to a Tee
fitting. A single hose will go from the Tee fitting to the inlet side of the pump used for waste water & recirculation.
●The outlet side of this pump gets a Wye fitting and 2 ball valves. One hose goes to waste water, the other goes back to the
upper wash vessel Wye fitting.
●Be sure any unused ports on the filtration vessels are capped and ball valves closed before filling.
*REMEMBER TO CLEAN YOUR EQUIPMENT BEFORE USE*
Note: Gaskets must be used at every port
connection in order to form a seal between
the ports. The sanitary clamp holds the port
assembly together, hand tighten only.
