The TPSS installation site must be a minimum of 37” (94cm) W x 40” (102cm) D x 66” (168cm) H (with lid open).
TPSSs must be installed no less than 6 inches (15cm) from the wall to accommodate operator access to the unit's main
power supply wall outlet.
W at er S up pl y
Hot and cold water supplies are needed for TPSS operation. A 3/4" supply is desirable because of the volume of
water it carries, but a 1/2" line is usually sufficient as long as the facility has good water pressure (55 psi or higher
at the unit).
Hot and cold water supply pipes should run up or down the wall to the left side of the space where the machine
will be installed, ending 48”(122cm) to 58"(148cm) from the floor. Attach a threaded ball valve to the end of each
supply pipe. The ball valve must end with 1/2" fpt.
Hard water in excess of 5.0 grains per gallon can adversely affect equipment operation. Consequently, hard water
must be treated before it enters installed equipment. Untreated hard water supplies will void equipment warranties.
E le c tr ic a l
The unit's electrical supply must be within 36" (92cm) of the unit location. A ground fault receptacle rated at 120 VAC,
single phase at 60 Hz and 15 amps is required. The TPSS draws a peak current of 9.5 amps with a normal operating
current draw of 2.0 to 4.5 amps.
S an i t ar y Sew er (Dr ain )
The TPSS requires a minimum 2" PVC or copper sanitary sewer drain connection. The ideal drain is centered on the
install site, 6” (15cm) to 15” (38cm) from the floor. The drain can protrude vertically out of the floor or horizontally
from the wall. Drainpipes brought up through the floor should stay as close as possible to the wall. Wall drains should
not protrude more than 6" (15cm) from the wall.
A positive drain connection is recommended. Running drain tubing to an open hopper or mop sink is not
recommended. In addition, an indirect waste drain with an air gap is not recommended due to splash and splatter.
