A water hammer arrestor (meeting ASSE-1010 Standard or equivalent) should be installed (supplied

by others) in the common water supply line at the service connection.

The plumber connecting this machine is responsible for making certain that water lines are THOROUGHLY

FLUSHED OUT BEFORE connecting to the dishwasher. This "ush-out" is necessary to remove all

foreign matter, such as chips (resulting from cutting or threading of pipes) pipe joint compound from the

lines; or, if soldered ttings are used, bits of solder or cuttings from the tubing. Debris, if not removed,

may lodge in the dishwasher's plumbing components and render them inoperative. Manual valves

or solenoid valves fouled by foreign matter and any expenses resulting from this fouling are NOT the

responsibility of the manufacturer and associated repair costs are not covered under warranty.

Water supply requirements are as follows:

MODEL TEMPERATURE

LXeC 120°F Minimum

LXePR 120°F Minimum

LXeH 110°F Minimum

LXeR 55°F Minimum, 80°F Maximum

NOTE: On LXeR installations, if cold water supply temperature is consistently above 80°F or if excessive

water vapor or steam is entering the room after the condensing cycle is complete, contact Hobart

Service to increase condensing time.

Required owing water pressure to the dishmachine is 15-65 PSIG. If pressures higher than 65 PSIG

are present, a pressure regulating valve must be installed in the water line to the dishmachine (by

others). If owing pressure is less than 15 psi, improper machine operation may result. All LXe models

are equipped with a pumped rinse system; therefore, a water pressure gauge is not required and is

not supplied with the machine.

The water pressure regulator must have a relief bypass. Failure to use the proper type

of pressure regulator may result in damage to the unit.

A manual shutoff valve (not supplied) should be installed upstream of the ll hose to accommodate

servicing the machine.

It is recommended that a line strainer (not supplied) be installed in the supply line between the manual

shutoff valve (not supplied) and the connection point on the machine. Make plumbing connections with

⁄2" minimum copper piping OD (

⁄4" recommended), with a

⁄4" male garden hose tting (not supplied).

See installation diagrams, pages 16-17.

PLUMBING CONNECTIONS

Plumbing connections must comply with applicable sanitary, safety, and plumbing

codes.

Drain

A drain hose,

⁄8" inside diameter and 6' long, is provided. This should be securely plumbed into a

drain. Use care not to kink hose. See installation diagrams, pages 16-17. Drain must have a minimum

ow capacity of 5 gallons per minute.
