Introduction and Features

Introduction

The CC-101K Control Center is CUL® US listed for use with InSinkErator Foodservice Disposers. The control center operates the disposer and its main functions include:

• Starting and stopping the disposer.
• Automatically reversing the disposer motor direction upon restart.
• Starting the water flow to the disposer.
• Allowing water to flow for several minutes to flush the drain line after the disposer is turned off (post-flush).

Table 1: Electrical Specifications

Key Features

• Electric Disconnect Switch: A lever switch on the front panel disconnects line voltage. It interlocks with the front cover, preventing opening unless the switch is off. Note: Using the disconnect switch results in a 30-second delay before the system can be restarted.
• Low Voltage Control: Controls operate on a 24V solid-state control circuit.
• Enclosure: NEMA 4 construction.
• Push Button Operation: Press the black button to start the disposer and the red button to stop it.
• Automatic Reverse: The disposer motor reverses direction automatically upon restart. A five-second delay prevents reversing while the motor is coasting to avoid damage.
• Water Shutoff Delay (Post Flush): After the motor stops, water continues to flow for up to 10 minutes, controlled by a timer. This post-flush helps ensure ground food waste is cleared from the drain line. The delay is adjustable as described in the operating instructions.
• Automatic Timed Disposer Shutoff: This feature allows the disposer to run for up to 10 minutes before automatically shutting off, requiring manual restart. By default, this feature is set to manual. To activate, disconnect electric power, open the control center door, locate the dip switch module on the printed circuit board, and move the switch from MANUAL to AUTOMATIC. The disposer will then automatically shut off 10 minutes after starting.

ℹ️ NOTICE: Property Damage Use of more than two solenoid valves will affect the overall function of the CC-101K control center. Extra solenoid valves can cause a reduction in voltage and prevent solenoid actuation.

Mounting and Plumbing

Mounting the Control Center

Mount the control center using the flanges at the back of the enclosure. Ensure it is installed in an upright vertical position with the door hinge on the left. If mounted to a sink table, recess the box so the buttons do not extend beyond the table's edge.

Plumbing Connections

The syphon breaker is supplied with complete disposer packages. The solenoid valve has a 24V coil; ensure it is plumbed according to the water flow direction arrows marked on the valve for proper function. The flow control valve regulates all water entering the disposer, conserving water and preventing overloading. Always check the direction of water flow arrows on the valve.

Low Voltage Control

The CC-101K control center uses low voltage (24V) to operate contactor coils, the solid-state control circuit, push buttons, and solenoid valves. Red wires denote a 24V circuit.

Water Solenoid Valve

One 24V solenoid valve is supplied with all control centers. Connect the solenoid valve in line with the flow control valve to terminals 4 and 13. See Figure 7.

Figure 7: Water Solenoid Valve Wiring

Figure 7 details the wiring for the water solenoid valve. The 24V water solenoid valve is connected to terminals 4 and 13 on the control center's circuit board.

Wiring Procedures

Wire according to local electrical codes using 7/8" diameter holes in the bottom of the control center cabinet and install NEMA 4 water-tight electrical connectors. After completing connections, replace all terminal block shields, close the door, and fasten all locking clamps. Replace the disposer motor cover and turn on power. Please read the disposer operating instructions and train personnel before operating the disposer.

Instructions for Push-To-Connect Terminal Block

⚠️ CAUTION: Incorrect wire strip length could cause intermittent operation or an electrical short.

1. Strip wire insulation back 7/16" - 1/2" (11-13mm). See gauge at corners.
2. Depress the orange button adjacent to the desired terminal block hole.
3. Insert the stripped wire into the hole until it bottoms out, then release the button.
4. Gently pull on each wire to verify it is secure. Insulation should be inside the hole, and conductors should not be visible.

WARNING: Personal Injury

• Allow only trained personnel to operate the disposer.
• Use baffles and guarding to avoid splashing and ejection of materials.
• Do not put fingers or hands into the disposer.
• When attempting to remove objects from a disposer, use long-handled tongs or pliers.
