2 700/800 Series Food Waste Disposer
WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
A cold water supply with a minimum head of 0.2 to 10 bar is required. This is
connected to the units at the water control valve using a 15mm compression joint,
supplied with the machine. A stopcock should be fitted to the water supply.
The rate of water flow for the disposal of normal food waste is 14-18 litres per
minute for 700 Series machines and 18-27 litres per minute for 800 series
machines. Adjust the water supply control valve to achieve the desired flow rate.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
All electrical work must be carried out by a qualified electrician and in accordance
with the IEE Codes of Practice. Examine the rating plate attached to the motor to
ensure that the characteristics shown are correct for the supply available. The
cables fitted to the controller are the minimum required for individual connection to
the mains supply. Site conditions may vary with additional length of cable run,
encapsulation in trunking, bunched with other cables etc. Should this apply, the
electrician must alter the cable accordingly.
All machines are supplied with a starter with forward, reverse and stop buttons.
The starter also controls the water flow. This unit must be connected to the mains
supply using the starter provided. Omission of the starter eliminates overload
protection for the motor and will invalidate the guarantee.
The 700/800 Series Disposers should be connected to a 30A isolator providing at
least 3mm separation in all poles. The table below illustrates typical fuse ratings
for an ambient temperature of 25 to 35°C. Should the environment temperature
be greater than this, derate accordingly.
Unit
Voltage
Full Load Current Fuse Rating per
Phase
700 400-3-50 2.8 Amps 5 Amps
440-3-60 2.6 Amps 5 Amps
230-1-50 7.4 Amps 15 Amps
800 400-3-50 5.3 Amps 15 Amps
440-3-60 5.1 Amps 5 Amps
The supply to the machine must also be protected by a 30mA RCD.
Warning: This appliance must be earthed.
If the supply cord becomes damaged it must be replaced by qualified electrician in
order to avoid a hazard.
