Safety
• Restarting the machine
After any stoppage of the machine, either due to power failure, emergency stop, motor safety, the machine can only be restarted after having pressed key "ON".
• Outer doors
All of the different parts of the machine stop working automatically as soon as one of the doors is opened. The doors can only be opened if the cage is at a complete standstill and the pro- grammer on end of cycle.
The drum door is kept opened by gas jacks.
On barrier machines, the loading and unloading doors cannot be opened at the same time.
For barrier machines, the unloading door opening is possible only if the wash program has been completely achieved. This guarantee the barrier process for a decontamination wash program in particular (time, temperature, water levels and detergents' inputs have been re- spected).
• Motor protection
The motors driving our machines are of asynchronous rotor type with short circuit. They are protected by a frequency converter. A circuit breaker protect the frequency converter.
• Level
Our machines are equipped with a pressure switch which controls the level of water in the ma- chine according to the different programmes, prevents heating from taking place in the absence of water (minimum water level authorized : 10 units), and prevents from opening the door if the water level is higher than low level.
• Washing-extraction
A safety device ensured by a electronic temporized relay adjusted at 40 seconds prevents the drum doors from being opened after its complete stop. This safety device is doubled by a rota- tion detector checking the total stop of the cage.
• Unbalance safety device
A safety device stops the machine if the load is unbalanced (uneven distribution of linen at start of extraction).
• Cage doors
If the drum doors are opened, the revolving drum is blocked mechanically.
• Drum doors
Drum doors are equipped with "securit" type small windows, make of 2 tempered glasses sepa- rated by a plastic fi lm, avoiding glass projection in case of thermic or physical shock.
• Emergency stop
An emergency stop button is provided on the loading and unloading sides of the barrier ma- chines.
