General
The extractors described in this manual, with drum volumes 38, 58 and 88 litres, are an invaluable complement to the washing machine and other drying equipment.
1

Through their efficient extraction of the water from the load after a wash program, the drying time can be considerably reduced. Drying wash in a drying cabinet or tumble dryer is energy-intensive and an efficient extractor can save a great deal of energy every year. The machines are available in two types: · Flexibly-mounted type (38 and 58 litre drum volumes). The drum is mounted flexibly in relation to the frame. As a result, a minimum of vibration is transferred to the frame, and this in turn makes installation easier. These extractors can generally be installed using expanding bolts (size M12) directly on a cast concrete floor of good quality and sufficient thickness. · R-model (38,58 and 88 litre drum volumes). The drum is relatively rigidly mounted in the frame. The floor must be very stable to take up the dynamic forces from extraction. The mounting bolts must be cast inti the floor. The extractor is controlled by means of three buttons on a control panel. The buttons have the following functions:

Start Stop

Starts the extractor. It will run for 5 minutes (factory settings) and then switch off automatically. Is used to stop extraction before the set time has elapsed. Opens the lid when the drum has stopped after the set time has elapsed, if extraction has been interrupted using the stop button, if the extractor has stopped because of load imbalance, or if it has been energised with the lid closed.

Service manual

· The machine must not be operated be children. · Do not leave children alone or unsupervised in the vicinity of the extractor. · The machine must not be hosed down with water. · Installation and servicing are to be performed be authorised personnel only. · The machine´s lid lock must not be bypassed under any circumstances. · The extractor must not be connected to a central time-switch which cuts the power supply to it at a certain time each day. If the power supply is cut during an extraction cycle the lid cannot be opened. This means that there is a risk of the lid being forced open. · If a fault arises, e.g. when the yellow light by the STOP button flashed on and off, this should be reported to the technician responsible for the machine as soon as possible. This is important for your own safety and that of other people.

The machine are available in two types: · Flexibly-mounted, which means that the drum unit (motor and drum) are suspended in the frame by rubber straps. Beneath the motor is a counterweight which counterbalances the drum when it is rotation. · R- model, in which the drum unit is relatively mounted in the frame on rubber bushings. An out of balance switch stops the motor if the load is not distributed properly in the drum. The machine lid is on a slewing arm, which is swung across the drum opening and then pressed down towards the drum. A microswitch in the control unit and also a Reed element in the C240/C240R and C260/C260R models check that the lid is closed before the machine will start. Two rotation guards, a microswitch and the Reed element lock the lid so that it cannot be opened until the drum had stopped. If the power supply is interrupted, e.g. by a power cut, it will not be possible to open the lid until the power supply is restored. The machine is controlled by means of three buttons on a control panel located to one side of the lid. The circuit board for automatic functions, lid lock, relays, transformer etc. are located in the control unit. Access is easy once the cover is removed.

Circuit diagram 489 50 01 77 has been used in describing the function sequence in this section: This diagram is in principle identical to all the other circuit diagrams since the control voltage is 24 V AC 50/60 Hz.

Start of extraction
3
The machine starts extraction when the operator presses the START button on the control panel. Drive motor M1 is energised via connection X3-X5 (star connection) or X2-X7(delta connection) when relay K1 operates. For K1 to operate, the following conditions must be fulfilled: · The lid´s Reed element R1-R2 must be activated, e.g. the lid closed (this does not apply to the C290R, which has no Reed element in the lid). · The mechanical lid switch (SW1) must be activated (lid Closed). When the lid´s Reed element closes, a signal (GND potential) is obtained at terminal OUT1 S3 on connection S3. This signal is supplied via the circuit board to terminal GND2 on connection S6. Terminal OUT2 on S6 will have GND, potential, which allows the extractor to start.The logic circuit will now supply control voltage to terminal S1:4, which via an interlock contact on brake relay K2 supplies one side of relay coil K1. The other side of the relay coil receives voltage from S1:2 via lid switch SW1 and the motor´s internal thermal protection F3. When K1 operates, an interlock contact in the control circuit opens to relay K2 (brake relay), thereby preventing K2 from operating at the same time as K1.

The lid is opened by pressing the button on the control panel. The following conditions must be fulfilled before the lid will open: · The machine power supply must be on · The drum must be completely at a standstill i.e. rotation guards H1 (S4:2) and SW2 (S1:7) must have sent the opening signal. The lid lock is released with the aid of the traction magnet Y1. The control circuit of Y1 takes its voltage from the circuit board, output S1:6, via rotation guard SW2. When the drum is completely still rotation guard H1 gives the go-ahead signal for lid opening to the logicsection on the circuit board (S4:2).

Stop after extraction
The machine will stop extracting in the following three cases: · When the preset extractor time has elapsed (approx. 5 minutes). · When the operator presses in the STOP button on the control panel. · When the out of balance switch is activated.

5

The machine´s braking function on the circuit board (output S1:5) is activated after the control circuit to extraction relay K1 (S1:4) has been broken. The control circuit for the braking relay K2 is closed (interlock contact in K1 closed), after which K2 operates and inverts the phase of the drive voltage to motor M1, Which thereby gains braking power. When K2 operates, an interlock contact in the control circuit opens to relay K1 (extraction relay) and prevents K1 from operating at the same time as K2. When the logic circuit detects that the motor has stopped (rotation guard H1 (S4:2) and SW2 (S1:7) have sent impulses), K2 is de-energised again and the machine is ready for lid opening.

Imbalance during extraction
6
In the event of imbalance, extraction is halted so that the load can be manually redistributed. The sensor arm of the microswitch (SW3) is activated if there is load imbalance, and it in turn sends a signal to the circuit board (S2:2) for activation of the braking function and subsequent possibility of lid opening function.

Lid lock
1

The lid is mounted on an arm and closes onto the deck of the outer casing. The extractor is closed by first moving the lid over the drum and then pressing the arm downwards. The arm activates a mechanical lid lock which prevents the lid from being opened during extraction. To prevent the machine from being able to start with the lid open there is a microswitch which detects when the lid lock is engaged. Reed elements in the lid (on the C240/C240R and C260/C260R) sense when the lid is pressed down towards the deck. The lid lock is opened by activating a traction magnet which releases the mechanical lock. For it to be possible to open the lid, the machine needs to be supplied with power and the machine´s mechanical rotation guard and the motor´s Hall element need to have given the opening signal (drum not rotating).

Reed element C240, C240R, C260 and C260R
General
The function of the Reed element is to check that the lid is properly closed before extraction can start. A complete Reed ring consists of two Reed elements, set the ring itself, beneath the deck. The cable from the Reed ring is routed out through the edge of the deck via the control box down to the automatic control unit. The lid is adjusted so that the machine will stop if the lid is moved upwards or sideways by force from inside or outside the machine during extraction. Once the extractor has stopped it can be restarted provided that the lid is properly closed. Instructions for repair If the lid is too sensitive during extraction the machine will stop. This may be caused by a slight lateral movement of the lid. The cause of the fault may be: · The round rubber dampers are missing or are very worn. Check the dampers in the control unit. If they are missing or worn the lateral movement will be too great. · The lid is not centred over the opening. The lid is attached to the arm with a bolt and locked with a rivet. Check these fastenings. · The lid is too high. Check the position of the lid when it is opened and moved sideways. The lid should be as close as possible to the deck. If the clearance is too great, adjust at the nuts which hold the automatic control unit in place. · The Reed element is defective. Check according to section 12 " Function sequencesmeasurement points" To replace a Reed ring · Remove the two cable connections on the curcuit board for automatic functions. · Remove nut and washer (C260 and C260R - 2 of these) securing the Reed/Hall ring (use a socket wrench) · Pull the cables out through the hole in the deck. · Remove the Reed/Hall ring from the deck. · Install a new Reed ring.

Fault-tracing
Motor does not run at all. · Check the power supply to the motor. Check the motor´s quick connector. · Check the motor windings with an ohmmeter for short-circuit or failure. · Check that the motor shaft can be turned. If it can´t, the probable cause is bearing failure. Replace the motor. · If, right after stopping, the motor feels abnormally hot, its thermal protection has probable tripped. Investigate the cause of the overloading. Check that motor and drum rotate easily. The motor protection resets automatically when the motor has cooled, after about 30 minutes. Start the machine and listen for any untoward noise. If the motor protection trips repeatedly, it may be because of short-circuiting. Bearing failure in the motor may be the cause.

Motor runs slow
The motor is probably operating on only two phases. · Check that the motor´s power supply is correct. · Remove the quick connector and use a meter to check the motor windings for failure or short-circuiting.

These are two methods of mounting the drum unit in the frame: one for the flexibly-mounted type, the other for R-model. · In the flexibly-mounted models (C240 and C260) the drum unit is suspended from rubber straps: 8 or 10 according to type. In these models the mounting cannot be adjusted, instead the rubber replacement is needed, then all the straps must be replaced where necessary. If replacement is needed, then all the straps should be replaced with new ones at the same time, to avoid having to replace others only a short time later because of uneven strap elestictity. · In R-models (C240R, C260R and C290R) the drum unit is relatively rigidly mounted in the frame with the aid of two rubber bushing.
