Introduction
This manual should be read and understood by everyone involved with the installation and operation
of the pan washer. Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference. Extra copies or replacement
copies can be purchased from the manufacturer.
Service work on the machine should be done by either a factory representative or qualified local
service company.
Contact the factory if the machine is under warranty.
The LVO pan washer is designed for use in bakeries, restaurants, schools, hospitals, and hotels, to
clean pots, pans, bowls, and utensils. LVO pan washers are constructed of 14 gauge stainless steel
(cabinets) and 12 gauge stainless steel (framework). The interior piping, rinse system, wash arms, and
screens are stainless steel. Because of its sturdy construction, it will deliver years of powerful,
thorough cleaning.
The machine is equipped with a heating element in the rinse tank to boost the rinse water to a
sanitizing 180°F at the inlet to the machine. A rinse tank heated with recirculated steam is an option
available on some models.
The wash tank on electric models incorporates two 9 kW electric heating elements for heating the
wash water. The gas models use a series of (4) 22,500 BTU infrared burners. Steam models use
either a direct injection system or a recirculated steam heating coil.
The pump recirculates wash water at approximately 55 pounds per square inch of pressure.
Each machine is equipped with two safety switches. The first is a low water cut-off, which shuts the
machine off when the water level in the wash tank falls below the required level. The other safety
device is a door switch, which prevents the machine from operating when the door is not completely
closed. An electrical schematic for your machine is posted inside the control box cover.
Detergent Feeders
This machine must be operated with an automatic detergent feeder, which is supplied by the customer,
including a visual means to verify that detergent is delivered or a visual or audible alarm to signal that
detergent is not available for delivery. Power for the feeder can be provided by the pump supply
connection in the control panel. See feeder equipment manual for additional information.
