GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The appliance structure consists of:• A moving part, including the steel drum, mechanical transmission with pulley system, motor, springs, shock absorbers (springs
and shock absorbers are only available in the GWH version).• a fixed part, including a structural frame, insulating panels and locking, control panels and accessories.
In the front part there is a loading mouth that allows loading and unloading laundry from the washing drum, and the appliance control panel.
In the upper part there are four detergent dispensers, two for powder detergent and two for liquid detergent respectively.
At the rear there are the connections for the water and steam (if any) inlets, and the electrical connection.
The appliance tank is hydraulically sealed, so as to prevent liquid from escaping. It is equipped with an electrically driven drain through which the washing bath is conveyed to the mains or a recovery tank.
There is an overflow vent through which any liquid excess is conveyed to the drain.
A safety data sheet is available with the machine to safeguard for the operator's safety.
The appliance can be automated by installing an external liquid soap dispenser and a pump conveying liquid soap inside the appliance (the pump is an optional item).
The appliance work cycle (standard, without optional elements) can be divided as follows:
Phase Description
1 Introduction of the laundry to be washed into the steel drum.
2 Introduction into the soap dispenser of the detergents to be used in the washing cycle.
3 Selection of the programme to be used and starting of the washing cycle.
4 When the washing cycle is over, discharge of the washing bath into the seqwage system.
5 Cycle stop, signalled by the machine.
6 Laundry unloading.
7 Disconnection of water and power supplies.
The washing cycle can be summarised as follows:
Phase Description
1 Weighing: Used to detect the weight (Kg) of the load inside the drum.
2 Soaking: Required to loosen dirt that is particularly difficult to remove.
3 Pre-washing: Required to loosen and remove organic dirt.
4 Washing: Main phase of the washing cycle required to remove dirt from fabrics.
5 Rinse: Required to remove detergent and suspended dirt from fabrics.
6 Spin: Required to remove detergent and water from fabrics.
7 Unroll = Final phase of the washing cycle required to detach the laundry from the drum after the final spin.
