COMPONENT DESCRIPTION Dual Head Production Washout
System
Power Requirement: Two dedicated 20 amp. circuits (1-circuit per plug)
Dimensions: 70”L x 34”W x 63”H
Weight: 500 lbs
The Dual Head Washout System is a direct water
drain unit and is designed for high production use.
SETUP
- Unwrap processor and remove from pallet.
- Install wheels by lifting first one side of processor and installing
two wheels, then repeating the process on the other side
Required Items:
- "Garden Hose" (6-8') Hook Up to Warm Water Supply
(95° - 110° F). Recommended: industrial (gas) Water Heater with
60 -90 gal min. tank capacity; see the Takagi TK1
"on-demand" water heating system at
www.takagi-usa.com. Water
consumption: 3.8 GPM
- 1½" PVC Drainage Hook-Up
Recommended: Use flexible 2" hose
and hose clamps or plum 1½"
PVC piping to drainage hook up. Make sure the unit is free to move
around in order to service rear of machine when needed.
- Inlet (water) ball valve for On/Off water control:
Recommended: 4-6' high pressure hose connected to the
inlet water hook-up and ball valve. Open the Ball Valve when machine is in operation. Close when not in use.
The water hose connected to the inlet
hook-up and ball valve will allow the unit to be moved forward and back
if necessary. Inside of the holding tank is a water float valve that
will stop the inlet water when tank is full. Shutting off the ball valve
when not in use will insure there will be no failure to the float valve.
OPERATION
- The 1650 Automatic Washout System is equipped
with a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) to disconnect power to
the unit in the event of a short circuit in the electrical system. When
the unit is first plugged in, press "RESET" on the GFCI.
- Turn pump inlet valve (between tank and water
pump) to OPEN.
- Set the heater thermostat (at rear of holding
tank) to 110° - 120° F
- Turn "POWER" switch to ON.
Note: Main POWER switch controls all power functions to unit -
including water heating element.
- Set wash cycle "TIMER." The digital timer has one
program setting, with several choices for wash times. (Wash times will
vary according to mil thickness of SR2000™ photo resist film).
Program Settings have five windows.
They are (from left to right):
[H] [hours]
[minutes] [1/10 of second]
[0.1/m]
1
2
3
4
5
Minutes and 1/10 of seconds can be changed by pressing the "+"
button to increase and the "-" button to decrease the time.
- Place SR2000™ across the circumference of the
wash drum, dull side up. Use 1/4" of the magnetic strips to secure both
sides of film to drum.
- END OF DAY turn "POWER" switch off and close the
water inlet ball valve.
CONTROL PANEL COMPONENTS

- POWER switch is ON when indicator light is
lit.
- RUN/PAUSE switch: When in "RUN" mode the
unit will start a cycle. "Pause" the cycle if necessary by pressing the button. "PAUSE" will stop the wash cycle and timer until released into "RUN" mode.
To reset the timer to original time, turn POWER switch off and on again.
- CYCLE switch starts
the pre-set timed cycle (two way switch - up or
down).
- TIMER The digital timers indicates the program setting to operate the
unit. The proper program setting is H 000 .01/M
(000 = hours, minutes, seconds). The timer
also indicates (by percentage) the wash time left to a cycle.
- HAND SPRAYER switch is ON when indicator
light is lit. Press thumb trigger to start flow.
At the end of each day, turn "POWER" switch to OFF and close the water inlet Ball Valve. The "Heating Element" inside the water holding tank stays "ON" even when the "POWER" switches are off, the heating element will maintain 90º water temperature. A manual OFF switch and thermostat is located at the rear of the processor.

Note: Wash times vary depending upon exposure
times and more importantly, the density of the printed image. If
necessary, use the attached Hand Sprayer to touch up any areas not
completely washed out.
MAINTENANCE
- DAILY: Use a mild cleanser
on wash drum and drain tray.
- AS NEEDED: Remove and clean the washing nozzles
using hard water deposit cleaner and bristle brush. Important:
When servicing the washing nozzles, or cleaning a clogged nozzle, remove
the nozzle first and blow or rinse the debris free. DO NOT push
anything through the orifice as this could result in damage to the spray
pattern. DO NOT line up wash nozzles straight; rather keep them in the
factory settings (off set one from the other).
