SIEBRING PRESSURE WASHERS INTRODUCTION The general misunderstanding of a steam cleaner and hot pressure washer should be understood. The first generation of hot, low pressure cleaning was the steam cleaner – one to two gallons of water heated 300°- 500°F. were discharged against dirt at 100 – 125 PSI. As the water left the nozzle, the pressure drop caused the water temperature to drop to 212° and much of the water temperature dissipated into the air as water vapor.

GENERAL SAFETY 1. A safety pressure relief device is installed at the factory. Removal of this device could void the unit warranty and cause injury to personnel. 2. WARNING – Do not pump flammable or explosive fluids such as gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. Do not use in explosive atmospheres. The pump should only be used with liquids compatible with the pump component materials. Failure to follow this warning can result in personal injury and/or property damage and will void the product warranty. 3.
General Operating Instructions 1. Check Oil Level (See Honda gas engine Owner’s Manual for additional information). 2. Check CAT pump oil level. Oil level must be up to the red center dot (see CAT Service Manual). 3. Connect pressure water supply hose or immerse suction hose in adequate clean water supply. Be sure screen is in place. 4. Connect electrical power A. Burner 120VAC B. Pump Motor 220VAC (specified phase) 5. Check engine fuel supply if applicable. 6.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL – 430027 Adjust temperature control to the desired temperature. TEMPERATURE CONTROL HOT COLD Typical Wiring To Flow Switch To Control Switch OPERATION – DEMA INJECTOR 203B / 204B Warning: Use care when handling hazardous chemicals. Warning: Setting the water bypass screw too far in could starve and damage the pump. See figure below for location of water bypass screw and fine metering adjustment screw. Turn on water supply valve.
Gems (Thomas Products) FS-925 Flow Switch Hermetically sealed SPDT switch No.18 AWG Leads Spring Permanent Magnet Piston Operating Principle - A magnet-equipped piston, displaced by the pressure differential from fluid flow, magnetically actuates a hermetically sealed, SPDT reed switch within the unit. The switch is factory set and must not to be adjusted in the field. This switch, in turn, operates a remote relay, providing system control.
Johnson Controls Flow Control Model F61KD-3C / F61KD-4C Operation – The flow switch responds to pressure exerted on the fluid paddle by the flowing fluid. During normal operation, the circuit between the red and yellow leads (terminals) closes when sufficient fluid flows through the piping to trip the flow switch. When a “no flow” condition exists, the switch opens, breaking the circuit and shutting down the burner.
Honeywell Aquastat Controller L4006A Copper Capillary Tube (to sensing bulb) Differential Adjustment Wheel 5 Wire Terminal Screws Set-point Indicating Dial Operation - L4006A breaks the circuit on a temperature rise to the control setting. High limit controller: Shuts off burner when water temperature exceeds high limit setting. Burner restarts when temperature drops to high limit setting. Low limit controller: Maintains minimum water temperature.
Pressure Sensitive Regulating Unloader This type of unloader may be referred to as a “Trapped Pressure” type or just "Pressure" type. This type of valve opens to bypass when it senses the pressure build up of the pump output having nowhere to go. The main characteristic of this most commonly used valve is how it traps the pressure in the hose when the trigger of the pressure gun is released and unloading excess pressure between the pump & unloader.
Pressure Sensitive Regulating Unloader Spray Mode Gun trigger is depressed with gun in use. Pump flow enters from the left of the diagram (inlet port), passes through the unloader, out of the outlet port, to the gun. Inlet Port Pump Piston Assembly CAUTION: A minimum bypass of 5 10% of the UNLOADER RATED FLOW CAPACITY is required for proper unloader performance.
Pressure Sensitive Regulating Unloader Bypass Mode WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE IN BYPASS MODE LONGER THAN 2 MINUTES. Pump CAUTION: A minimum bypass of 5 10% of the UNLOADER RATED FLOW CAPACITY is required for proper unloader performance. Piston Assembly Inlet Port Gun trigger valve is closed, gun is not in use.
Adjustable Pressure Regulating Unloader The following Unloader models are used on Siebring Pressure Washer applications: Cat Pump model 7500, 7534, 7600 & 7672. J.E. Adams Golden Eagle model 7100. Operation – The unloader holds established system pressure in the discharge line when the trigger gun is closed, solenoid valve is closed (gate) valve is closed or the nozzle is clogged, bypassing the unrequired flow between the pump and the unloader.
