Alliance Laundry Systems Programming a Wash 5 Thermal Cool-Down

4.If Wash 1 is chosen, the no-reverse option may be selected. The no-reverse option must be selected at this point in the step programming. Press the No Reverse key while the display reads “W1nncc”.

When the no-reverse option is selected, the display will not indicate that the No Reverse key is selected, but the machine will follow the programming command.

The no-reverse option will cause the basket to run forward only at wash speed for the time programmed.

The computer will return to normal reversing action when this step is complete.

The no-reverse option may be programmed in wash, supply, heat, and overflow steps. The No Reverse key must be pressed just prior to pressing the Enter key when programming a step.

5.Press the Enter key, and the display will read “M---S”. Now assign the wash step time in minutes and seconds.

6.Press the Enter key and go to the next step in the cycle.

7.On machines equipped with optional auxiliary heat (steam or electric), it is possible to program a wash step with a temperature step. During such a step, the machine will perform the programmed wash at the temperature programmed, maintaining that temperature throughout the step.

To program a wash with a specific temperature, use the following procedure:

a.After step 3 of Programming a Wash Step, press the Heat key before pressing the Enter key. The display will read either “080Fcc” or “025Ccc”, depending on whether Fahrenheit or Centigrade is prompted.

b.Now enter the desired temperature for the machine to maintain during the wash step.

Three digits must be entered for the temperature. If the desired temperature is less than 100 degrees, the first digit must be 0. The valid temperature range is 80 – 200 degrees Fahrenheit and 25 – 93 degrees Centigrade. If 100 degrees Fahrenheit is selected, the display will read “100Fcc”.

c.Now proceed with step 5 above.

Programming a Wash 5 Thermal Cool-Down

After programming a heat step, it may be desirable to program a temperature-controlled thermal cool-down to gradually reduce the temperature of the load and prevent fiber shock from sudden cool-down.

The temperature-controlled cool-down provides a gradual cooling down from a higher temperature to a lower temperature. The WE-6 monitors the temperature of the water in the washer and attempts to maintain an approximate cool-down rate of three degrees per minute by periodically energizing the cold water fill valve.

When the programmed time for the step expires, the computer will advance to the next step regardless of whether or not the cool-down temperature has been reached. If the cool-down temperature is reached before the time expires, the computer will advance to the next step.

During the cool-down, the drain will remain closed and water will exit through the overflow connection. The cylinder will rotate in a normal reversing mode as during a Wash 1 step.

Assuming that the computer is in the Program Mode and that a heat step has been created and entered, use the following procedure to program the thermal cool- down. (Do not program a drain step before the Wash 5 step.)

1.Press the Wash key and then key 5. The display will read “W5nncc.”

2.Press the Enter key. The display will read either “080Fcc” or “025Ccc”. depending on whether Centigrade or Fahrenheit is prompted.

3.Enter the desired temperature for the load to cool down to. Three digits must be used for the temperature. If the desired target temperature is less than 100 degrees, the first digit must be “0”. The valid temperature range is 80 – 200 degrees Fahrenheit and 25 – 93 degrees Centigrade. The computer will not accept temperatures out of this range. (The cool-down rate will be affected by the temperature of the cold water available.) If 100 degrees Fahrenheit is selected, the display will read “100Fcc”.
