Introduction/Features

INTRODUCTION

The AS-101K Control Center is UL® and CUL® approved for use with InSinkErator Foodservice Disposers. See Table 1 for approved disposer and control center combinations. The control center operates the disposer and control center combinations. Its main functions are:

•To start and stop the disposer.

•To reverse the direction of the disposer motor automatically upon restart.

•To start the water flow to the disposer.

•To regulate the amount of water needed for operation. Two solenoid valves are used to control high and low water flows.

•To allow water flow for several minutes to flush the drain line after the disposer is turned off.

FEATURES

AUTOMATIC REVERSE

The disposer motor will reverse its direction of rotation automatically upon restart. To avoid motor damage, a five second delay feature prevents reversing while the motor is coasting.

WATER SHUTOFF DELAY (POST FLUSH)

After the motor is turned off, the water continues to flow for up to 10 minutes. The length of this post flush is controlled by the water shutoff delay timer. The post flush helps ensure that ground food waste is flushed out of the drain line. Adjust water shutoff delay as described in the operating instructions on page 8.

AUTOMATIC WATER REGULATION

This acts as an on-demand water saving system

for InSinkErator Foodservice Disposers. It senses the load of the disposer, and regulates the amount of water necessary for grinding and non-grinding situations. This uses two solenoid valves.

NOTE: When the disposer is first turned on, both solenoids will operate. After the set time has expired, the flow to the disposer will slow to one gallon per minute if there is not food waste present in the grinding chamber.

AUTOMATIC TIMED DISPOSER SHUTOFF

This water saving feature allows the disposer to run for up to 10 minutes before it automatically shuts off and must be manually restarted.

NOTE: This feature is set in the manual position at the factory. To activate the automatic timed disposer shutoff, disconnect the electric power to the control center, then open the control center door. Locate the Dip Switch Module at the top of the printed circuit board (see Figure 8). Move the #5 dip switch from MANUAL to AUTOMATIC. The disposer now automatically shuts off 10 minutes after it starts.

EXTERNAL REMOTE CONTROL

One or more remote controls may be connected to the control center. These enable the operator to start or stop the disposer from any control station. A 24 V control circuit provides low voltage push button operation.

ELECTRIC DISCONNECT SWITCH

The lever switch on the front panel of the control center disconnects the line voltage. It interlocks with the front cover so that the cover cannot be opened unless the switch is in the off position.

NOTE: Use of the electrical disconnect switch results in a 30 second delay before system can be restarted. You must wait 30 seconds after reactivation of the line disconnect switch before system will start.

LOW VOLTAGE CONTROL

Controls operate on a 24 V solid state control circuit.

ENCLOSURE

NEMA 4 construction.

PUSH BUTTON OPERATION

Push Black button to start disposer.

Push Red button to stop disposer.

PROPERTY DAMAGE

Use of more than two solenoid valves will affect the overall function of the Aqua Saver systems. Extra solenoid valves will cause a reduction in voltage and solenoid actuation will not occur.
