General

The extractors described in this manual, with drum volumes 38, 58 and 88 litres,

are an invaluable complement to the washing machine and other drying equipment.

Through their efficient extraction of the water from the load after a wash program,

the drying time can be considerably reduced. Drying wash in a drying cabinet or

tumble dryer is energy-intensive and an efficient extractor can save a great deal of

energy every year.

The machines are available in two types:

• Flexibly-mounted type (38 and 58 litre drum volumes). The drum is mounted

flexibly in relation to the frame. As a result, a minimum of vibration is transferred

to the frame, and this in turn makes installation easier. These extractors can

generally be installed using expanding bolts (size M12) directly on a cast

concrete floor of good quality and sufficient thickness.

• R-model (38,58 and 88 litre drum volumes). The drum is relatively rigidly

mounted in the frame. The floor must be very stable to take up the dynamic

forces from extraction. The mounting bolts must be cast inti the floor.

The extractor is controlled by means of three buttons on a control panel. The

buttons have the following functions:

Start Starts the extractor. It will run for 5 minutes (factory settings) and then switch

off automatically.

Stop Is used to stop extraction before the set time has elapsed.

Opens the lid when the drum has stopped after the set time has

elapsed, if extraction has been interrupted using the stop button,

if the extractor has stopped because of load imbalance, or if it has

been energised with the lid closed.

Safety rules

• The machine must not be operated be children.

• Do not leave children alone or unsupervised in the vicinity of the extractor.

• The machine must not be hosed down with water.

• Installation and servicing are to be performed be authorised personnel only.

• The machine´s lid lock must not be bypassed under any circumstances.

• The extractor must not be connected to a central time-switch which cuts the

power supply to it at a certain time each day. If the power supply is cut

during an extraction cycle the lid cannot be opened. This means that there is

a risk of the lid being forced open.

• If a fault arises, e.g. when the yellow light by the STOP button flashed on

and off, this should be reported to the technician responsible for the machine

as soon as possible. This is important for your own safety and that of other

people.

The machine are available in two types:

• Flexibly-mounted, which means that the drum unit (motor and drum) are suspended

in the frame by rubber straps. Beneath the motor is a counterweight which

counterbalances the drum when it is rotation.

• R- model, in which the drum unit is relatively mounted in the frame on rubber

bushings.

An out of balance switch stops the motor if the load is not distributed properly in the drum.

The machine lid is on a slewing arm, which is swung across the drum opening and then

pressed down towards the drum. A microswitch in the control unit and also a Reed element in

the C240/C240R and C260/C260R models check that the lid is closed before the machine will

start.

Two rotation guards, a microswitch and the Reed element lock the lid so that it cannot be

opened until the drum had stopped. If the power supply is interrupted, e.g. by a power cut, it

will not be possible to open the lid until the power supply is restored.

The machine is controlled by means of three buttons on a control panel located to one side of

the lid.

The circuit board for automatic functions, lid lock, relays, transformer etc. are located in the

control unit. Access is easy once the cover is removed.
