PROBLEMS 

TROUBLE SHOOTING 

 

 

 

 

Insufficient tank temperature 

a)make  sure  that  the  thermostat  is  not 
damaged. 

 

 

 

b)make sure that the water supply temperature 
is as prescribed (50/55°C) 

 
 

c)check  that  the  fuses  and  the  coils  f  the 
contactor  relating  to  the  heating  elements  are 
not  interrupted  (only  for  machines  with 
electric heating). 

 

 
d)check  the  elements  are  heating  and  that  no 
limescale deposit has formed. 

 
 

e)for  machines  with  steam  heating  check  the 
steam  solenoid  valves,  the  steam  traps  are 
clear  and  the  steam  pressure  at  the  machine. 
Check  the  installation  of  the  condense 
recovery  by  detaching  the  discharge  tube  of 
the  steam  condense  and  discharge  it  into  an 
open drain. 

 
 

If  the  pressure  at  the  manometer  is  0,5  bar 
min.  and  the  machine  starts  heating,  this 
means  that  the  problem  is  on  the  installation 
of the steam condense recovery. 

 
Insufficient rinsing 

a)Before checking the rinse system check that 
the  wash  section  is  operating  correctly,  as 
poor wash results may  affect the efficiency of 
the  rinse.  Once  the  efficiency  of  wash  area 
has been checked make sure that:  

 

-  the  dynamic  pressure  of  the water supply is 
not less than 2bar (200 kPa). 

 
 

b)the nozzles are not blocked by limestone  

 
 

c)the  solenoid  valves  "Y10"  and  is  operating 
correctly. 

 
 

d)the  filter  of  the  incoming  water  is  not 
blocked.
