Vulcan-Hart VSX 9000 manual Water Flows Into Drain During Shutdown

Page 7

5.Check drain line to ensure that water from the cold water condenser is flowing through the drain line.

6.Open compartment door and observe that steam supply to the chamber is cut off (READY light should again come on).

7.Close compartment door and let cooking cycle finish. When timer returns to "0-minute" position, a buzzer will sound signalling the end of the cooking cycle. The buzzer must be turned off manually by setting timer to its OFF position.

8.To shut the cooker down, turn main power switch OFF and leave the compartment door slightly open.

WATER FLOWS INTO DRAIN DURING SHUTDOWN

When steamer is shut down and cold water is running continuously into the open drain, either or both solenoid valves did not close when steamer was turned off.

1.Disassemble solenoid valve(s) and examine for scalant or foreign particles lodged in diaphragm or core tube.

2.Clean valve(s) thoroughly and reassemble, or replace valve(s).

WATER OVERFLOWS INTO COOKING COMPARTMENT

When steamer is first turned on for the day, and the following conditions occur:

READY light does not come on after about 15 minutes,

Water begins to overflow into cooking compartment,

Water fill solenoid valve is open,

then any or all of these symptoms may indicate a problem with the operating probe due to either:

1.A short between the operating probe terminal and body of the steamer. Call your Vulcan-Hart authorized servicer.

2.Excessive scale build-up on the operating probe. This acts as an "insulation" and prevents the probe from sensing the water level. It is therefore unable to close the water fill (solenoid) valve to shut off the water.

As a temporary solution, with power OFF, unscrew probes, check visually, and clean or chip off sealant. Replace probes.

This problem is an indication of severe harmful water conditions. Correct immediately to avoid damage to the steamer. (See WATER QUALITY in this manual.)
