Figure Open Wash Reservoir
When properly configured in the automation software, the Pump Module
automatically fills and drains the reservoir. The Open Wash Reservoir can be
set up to run in either of two modes:
•
Overflow mode . Fresh wash solution enters the reservoir from the two
inlet ports ( 1 ), overflows into the overflow trough, and is pumped through
the two outlet ports (
2
) to waste.
•
Fill and empty mode . Fresh wash solution enters the reservoir from the
two inlet ports (
1
), but is drained via the bottom center port (
3
). In this
mode the reservoir is filled and emptied one or more times between each
wash cycle. The reservoir design ensures maximal emptying to reduce the
contamination load in the wash fluid between each cycle.
