3 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

3.1 Intended purpose
The machine is an item of technical equipment intended solely for commercial dishwashing.
The machine is designed solely for cleaning ware (porcelain, glass, ceramic, temperature-resistant plastics, stainless steel or similar) from the food industry.
3.2 General
Models CDH and CDL dishwashers can be configured for both straight through or corner operation. CDH and CDL dishwashers are shipped from the factory in straight through configuration. Straight through machines can be easily converted to corner operation.
The CDH dishwasher is designed to operate in high temperature sanitizing mode only (Designated by the temperature requirements of 150°F Wash and 180°F Rinse. These temperatures can be found on the label located on the lower, left part of the front panel).
The CDL dishwasher is designed to operate in chemical sanitizing mode only (Designated by the temperature requirements of 120°F Wash and 120°F Rinse. These temperatures can be found on the label located on the lower, left part of the front panel).
The serial number can be found on the machine data label located at the bottom of the right side of the machine.
Hobart supplied chemical pumps ship standard with the CDL model. Chemical pumps are available as an accessory kit (field installed) for the CDH model or contact your chemical representative for a chemical feeder system to be supplied and installed by others. This machine must be operated with an automatic detergent feeder, including a visual means to verify that detergents are delivered or a visual or audible alarm to signal if detergents are not available for delivery to the washing systems. See instructions for electrical and plumbing connections located in this manual and in the feeder equipment manual.
The wash pump motor has thermal overload protection.
The supply line incorporates an air gap on the CDH models and a vacuum breaker on the CDL model to prevent any reverse flow of water from the dishwasher into the potable water supply. The unit, once turned on, fills the wash tank to the appropriate level and automatically stops filling once the level is reached. A pressure transducer reads the water level in the wash tank and shuts off the heat supply if the water level becomes too low. When the water returns to the proper level, the heating circuit becomes operational again.
An automatic pumped drain is standard on all models.
A pumped rinse system is standard on the CDH model.
A frame mounted 6.0kW electric booster water heater is equipped on the CDH high temperature sanitizing model. The booster water heater is designed to maintain a minimum final rinse temperature of 180°F provided the incoming water is at least 110°F.

5.6 Connecting the water
NOTE: The machine must be operated with potable water.
5.6.1 Water Requirements
Proper water quality can improve ware washing performance by reducing spotting, enhancing effectiveness of labor, and extending equipment life. Water conditions vary from one location to another. The recommended proper water treatment for effective and efficient use of this equipment will also vary depending on the local water conditions. Ask your municipal water supplier for details about your local water conditions prior to installation.
Recommended water hardness is 3 grains of hardness per gallon or less. Higher hardness may cause excessive formation of lime scale. Water hardness above 3 grains per gallon requires water treatment. Water treatment has been shown to reduce costs associated with machine cleaning, reduce deliming of the dishwasher, and reduce detergent usage in the dishwasher.

NOTICE!
Water quality
High iron levels in the water supply can cause staining and may require an iron filter. High chloride levels in the water supply can cause pitting and may require a chloride removal system. Contact Hobart Service or your local water treatment professional for proper water treatment.
Sediment may require a particulate filter. Dissolved solids may require water treatment such as a water softener, reverse osmosis system, etc. Contact Hobart Service or your local water treatment professional for proper water treatment.

5.6.2 Water Connection
A water hammer arrestor (meeting ASSE-1010 Standard or equivalent) should be installed (supplied by others) in the common water supply line at the service connection.
The plumber connecting this machine is responsible for making certain that water lines are THOROUGHLY FLUSHED OUT BEFORE connecting to the dishwasher. This "flush-out" is necessary to remove all foreign matter, such as chips (resulting from cutting or threading of pipes), pipe joint compound from the lines; or, if soldered fittings are used, bits of solder or cuttings from the tubing. Debris, if not removed, may lodge in the dishwasher's plumbing components and render them inoperative. Solenoid valves fouled by foreign matter and any expenses resulting from this fouling are NOT the responsibility of the manufacturer and associated repair costs are not covered under warranty.
A manual shutoff valve (not supplied) should be installed upstream of the fill hose to accommodate servicing the machine. It is recommended that a line strainer (80 mesh) (not supplied) be installed in the supply line between the manual shutoff valve (not supplied) and the connection point on the machine. Make plumbing connections with ½" minimum copper piping OD (¾" recommended), with a ¾" male garden hose fitting (not supplied).

WARNING! Chemical burns, irritation of the skin, scalding
If the door is opened during operation, wash water can spray out and cause injury. Do not open the door during operation, wait for the cycle to finish.

8.3 Notes for optimal washing result
The rinse result is significantly affected by the water quality. If the mineral content is high, the minerals dissolved become visible on the glasses in the form of spots and streaks during the drying process.

A HOBART trained service technician can determine the water's mineral content by measuring the grains. Recommended water hardness is 3 grains of hardness per gallon or less. Higher hardness may cause excessive formation of lime scale. Water hardness above 3 grains per gallon requires water treatment.
If you have any questions, please contact your authorized HOBART service partner.
