POWERFUL AND DEPENDABLE

Peak periods for the large food service establish- ment can be very demanding on any foodwaste disposer. This powerful disposer has a large capacity for foodwaste. Hobart has engineered the 5 horsepower unit to perform dependably during peak demands for economical foodwaste disposal.

SPECIFICATIONS

Listed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. and meets requirements of A.S.S.E. Standard No. 1009. (50 Hz. Electrical Specifications not available with thermal overload protection nor submitted for UL listing.)

MOTORS: Continuous duty rating. Permanently lubricated bearings (matched set double row tapered roller bearings for upper shaft thrust support, ball bearings for lower shaft support). Inherent overload protection in motor.

HOUSINGS: Heavy aluminum grind and discharge housings. Eight bolts fasten the motor unit to the grind chamber, permit easy removal.

MOUNTING: Disposer fastens to 7" I.D. throat opening cones. A vinyl isolating ring eliminates metal-to-metal contact at the cone mounting, reduces vibration and noise transmission.

STATIONARY SHREDDER RING: Ni-Hard, 21⁄2" high, 4 machine ground primary action breaker bars, 42 secondary action grinding teeth.

FLYWHEEL: Breaker blade, mounted at center, speeds grinding, prevents objects from “riding” at center. Two hardened stainless steel cutter blocks (fastened to flywheel with Nyloc screws) are replaceable, can be indexed for new cutting edges. Ni-Resist flywheel is 9" diameter, slots undercut the hredder ring to assure that particles are cut to proper size before passing to the drain line.

MOTOR SHAFT SEAL: Face-type seal consists of sintered bronze mating ring and spring loaded carbon ring insert in chemical resistant neoprene bellows. Mating surfaces are protected from grit of fibers by being recessed into flywheel. Should any moisture pass this seal, a flinger and drain tube are provided to insure immediate removal. In addition,

alip-type oil seal (located beneath the bearings) is an “added protection” water seal.

DRAIN CONNECTOR: The removable outlet flange is tapped for 3" pipe connection.

DUAL DIRECTION GRINDING: Disposer flywheel operates in either direction. When installed with Control Groups 2 & 3, flywheel automatically starts in opposite direction each start. (Increases life and efficiency of grinding elements and frees flywheel of jams.)
