2.1.Introduction to CMA-180UC

The CMA-180UC is a hot water sanitizing, single rack, under-counter dishmachine. It is a standalone machine featuring a self-contained booster heater. The only external connections necessary are power supply, water supply, drainpipe, and optional chemical dispensers. The machine uses re-circulated wash water and fresh water final-rinse.

Operation of the CMA-180UC is extremely user friendly. To initially fill the machine each day, push the switch marked “FILL”. The machine is full when water begins to flow into the scrap tray. The booster tank heater will maintain the wash water temperature at 155°F. The booster heater will produce a minimum of 180°F final rinse water each cycle.

The supply water to the CMA-180UC must be a minimum of 140°F at 24 PSI (Pounds per Square Inch) with a 6 GPM (Gallons Per Minute) flow rate and 60 GPH (Gallons Per Hour) recovery rate. The pipe supplying the water must be ½” minimum. The plumbing connection is located at the back of the machine. (See specification sheet on page 2).

The drain is a 1" barbed fitting on the back of the machine for easy attachment of your drain hose.

The machine retains the features of the standard CMA-180 Series in that it has a scrap tray and the manner in which the tank is filled ensures that the dishes are always rinsed with fresh water instead of re-circulated water. The CMA-180UC is the first under-counter dishmachine of its kind to discharge soil from the wash tank into a scrap tray outside of the wash chamber. This feature keeps the wash water much cleaner over long periods of time. The scrap tray may be emptied on a periodic basis without interruption of the flow of work, thereby providing a much cleaner environment for the wash and rinse cycle. There are also enhancements that can be chosen when required such as drain pump kits and other accessories. Refer to Section 4 “Parts ” for the parts list and accessories available for the machine.
