Machine Overview
The design of the washer-extractor emphasizes
performance and long service life. The
cylinder, shell, and main body panels are
fabricated of stainless steel.
The washer-extractor features the WE-6
microcomputer which offers 39
preprogrammed cycles and programming
versatility in the field.
The AC inverter drive control provides
programmable motor speeds using a single
motor. This makes it possible to achieve
ultra-high extract speeds.
The cylinder is supported by roller bearings
housed inside a trunnion.
The cylinder is constructed with four lifters or
ribs that lift the laundry from the bath solution
when the cylinder rotates at slow speed and
then allow it to tumble back into the bath. This
mechanical action accomplishes the cleaning
function. The cylinder is perforated, allowing
the water to drain from within during the wash
and extract steps.
The supply dispenser is located on the upper
left side of the control panel. The supply
dispenser compartments are accessed by
unlatching the supply dispenser cover door.
These compartments accept powder or liquid
supplies. Each compartment is controlled
independently by the WE-6 computer.
Electrical controls for the washer-extractor are
housed in separate enclosures. The front
control module is located just behind the
keypad and control panel. It houses the WE-6
computer board, a fuse/relay board, and other
functional electrical components. The rear
control module houses the AC inverter drive
and its components.
A door-lock system prevents opening of the
door when water is in the washer-extractor. It
also prevents operation of the washer-extractor
when the door is open.
