Cleaning the Spray Arm & Filter plate

Ensure the DishDrawer® is cool before you start cleaning and follow the instructions for removing the drain filter and spray arm.

1Remove the basket carefully. Lift from the back end first to prevent knocking the detergent and rinse agent dispenser.

2Lift the spray arm and shake any foreign material out.

Rinse the spray arm under clean running water and wipe with a damp cloth.

3In the center of the filter plate there are two rings. Hold the center ring still and turn the outer ring anti-clockwise, about a 1/8 turn.

This will release the filter plate.

4Lift the filter plate out.

When cleaning the underside of the filter

 

plate, take care handling the sharp outer

a

edge to avoid the risk of cuts.

b

 

Remove any foreign material, wash in hot

 

soapy water and rinse thoroughly in clean

 

water. The heater plate can be wiped with a

c

damp cloth.

 

5 Replace the filter plate so it lies flat in the

d

base of the drawer ensuring the filter plate is

 

fully locked into position with the center ring.

 

6To lock the filter plate into position, ensure the lines align with each other (refer to the diagram for the correct position). The filter plate must not be able to move about freely.

7Replace the spray arm back onto the impeller.

8Replace the basket, lowering the front edge of the basket into position first.

DD124, DD224 specifications

DCS DD224 and DCS DD124 are advanced destroyers designed to meet modern naval warfare requirements. These vessels are built for high-performance operations and are equipped with a myriad of cutting-edge technologies to enhance their combat capabilities.

One of the standout features of the DCS DD224 and DD124 is their stealth technology. These destroyers are designed with a low radar cross-section, making them harder to detect by enemy radar systems. This stealth capability is crucial for conducting surprise attacks and naval maneuvering in contested waters.

Both destroyers are equipped with state-of-the-art weapon systems, including vertical launch systems capable of firing a range of missiles, such as anti-ship, air defense, and land-attack missiles. The multi-role capability of these vessels makes them suitable for various mission profiles, from anti-surface warfare to anti-air operations and even humanitarian assistance.

The sensor suite of DCS DD224 and DD124 includes advanced radar systems, such as phased-array radars that provide 360-degree coverage. These radar systems offer tracking and targeting capabilities for aerial threats, surface vessels, and submarines. Additionally, the ships are equipped with an integrated combat management system, which enables efficient decision-making and coordination among various onboard systems.

To enhance their operational efficiency, both destroyers are powered by combined diesel and gas (CODAG) propulsion systems. This configuration provides a good balance between speed and fuel efficiency, allowing them to reach high speeds of up to 30 knots. The propulsion system is designed for endurance, enabling long-distance missions without frequent refueling.

Furthermore, the DCS DD224 and DD124 feature advanced communication systems that ensure seamless connectivity with other naval assets. This capability is critical for modern naval operations, allowing for real-time information sharing and coordination during joint exercises or combat scenarios.

The onboard living conditions for the crew are also designed with comfort in mind, featuring modern amenities that help reduce fatigue during extended deployments. Overall, the DCS DD224 and DD124 represent a significant advancement in naval destroyer design, integrating technology, versatility, and operational effectiveness to meet the challenges of contemporary maritime warfare.
