Getting Started

2.3.1. Electrical*

A 3-phase 208-240 volt AC, 60 Hz dedicated circuit should be used to supply electrical energy to the CMA-66 dishwasher (see specification sheet page 2). Connect the wire that has the highest voltage (stinger lead) to the main contactor’s power terminal L2. Power lead wires (L1, L2 and L3) used for the CMA-66 at installation must comply with all local and State electrical codes.

2.3.2. Plumbing*

The water supply connection is made with a ½” hot water line to the water supply inlet on the top of the machine. The water supplied to the machine must be a minimum of 140° F for the CMA- 66L and a minimum of 180° F for the CMA-66H.

NOTE: The High Temp machine (CMA-66H) comes with two water supply line connections. One is for the final rinse at 180° F and the other is to fill the machine—this water will be heated to the appropriate temperature by the wash tank heater. (See specification sheet on page 2).

There are two 2” drain connections to be made. One connection is made at either end of the horizontal drainpipe coming from the wash tank and the other connection is made at the scrap tray drain. (Instructions for installing the scrap tray assembly are provided in section 2.3.4 Scrap Tray Assembly and Overflow Chute Installation.) One of the ends of the horizontal drainpipe has a cap on it – simply move the cap to the other end if it’s currently on the end needed for the drain connection.
