Theory Of Operation

The design of the washer-extractor emphasizes performance reliability and long service life. The cylinder, shell, and main body panels are fabricated of stainless steel.

Electrical controls for the washer-extractor are housed in a separate enclosure located on the top of the machine. Removing the screws from the module cover, lifting the cover, and pulling to the rear provides

access to the control module. This module contains the WE-6 microcomputer, contactors, water-level switch, and other control components.

One dual-speed motor drives the cylinder via a V-belt drive in both speeds for the 2-speed models. Two motors drive the cylinder for the 3-speed models. The UW35 uses two ball bearings held in place by a single cast-iron housing that is bolted to the A-frame. The UW60 uses two flange-mounted, spherical roller bearings bolted to the A-frame.
