Design Parameters The Flusher / Sanitizer has been designed within the following parameters: a) A single bed pan or two urine bottles can be emptied and sanitized during each automatic

cycle.

The types of bed pans and urine bottles suited to the unit are:-

i) Standard adult bed pan ii) Most plastic type bed pans iii) Standard child’s bed pan iv) Standard commode pan v) Standard urine bottle vi) Most plastic urine bottles

There are special cradles supplied for commodes, slipper pans and potties.

b) Holding racks and cradles are designed to ensure that articles are not dislodged by the force of the water.

c) The chamber and door are self-cleaning and do not permit water or soil to remain after a properly completed cycle.

d) The flush and cleaning stage:

i) Removes the soil ii) Clears the trap

e) The sanitizing stage raises the temperature of the article to not less than 85°C for a period of not less than 60 seconds.

f) A complete cycle is normally completed within 97 seconds. For a non-vented unit, cycle is normally completed within 110 seconds.

Note: When starting from cold the Flusher / Sanitizer may take up to 9 minutes to complete a

cycle. The digital display will register a fault if a properly executed cycle has not been completed within 10 minutes.

Sequence of Operation a) If the unit has been out of use TURN POWER ON. The digital display will illuminate with:

If the display shows the individual segments rotating around, it indicates that the last cycle was not completed and therefore the door cannot be opened. It will be necessary to press the start button and, if the machine has not been in use for some time, it could take up to nine minutes to complete a cycle.

If a fault number shows (as indicated below), consult the Fault Table or a Service Person. See Table B1 Fault Codes on Page 12 and appendices A & B on pages 13-15.

b) To Load Unit

Automatic Operation

Use Hands Free to open the door, load the machine (including contents 1 bed pan or 2 urine bottles) , and press START. The machine will automatically close the door and go straight into a flushing and sanitizing cycle.

OR

Manual Operation

For manual operation, Hands Free can be used for opening and closing the door. The door button has the same manual function of opening and closing the door as Hands Free.

When door is closed, press START.



c) While door is opening, display reads:

d) While door is closing, display reads:

e) When door is closed, display reads (for approximately 3 seconds):

f) The unit is then in STANDBY. Display reads:



g) When the cycle starts. Display reads:

For 13 seconds during cold water flush.

Note : The door is now in-active and cannot be opened until the cycle has been successfully completed

h) After the 13 second cold water flush and until the hot water tank reaches 95°C, the display flashes 85°C.

i) At 95°C the hot water pump comes on and six seco nds later the display then converts to the actual hot water tank temperature. The sanitizing time sequence will begin and run for 72 seconds.



j) At the end of the cycle the display will read:

The door can now be opened and the sanitized articles can be removed.

k) Close door. Display will read “HOLD” and then “SHUT”. Display then reads:

Machine is now ready for re-use.

Note : Door can be re-opened and closed as needed for clea ning purposes or to check if chamber has any contents in it.

If the door is left in the open position the micro switch de-activates the heating element and unit will not heat the hot water tank i n stand-by mode.

If the hot water tank temperature falls below 85°C during the timed cycle, the cycle is abandoned and the 85°C flashes until the unit re-heats and re -attempts the cycle. It will continue to do this for 10 minutes. If it cannot successfully complete a cycle, it will then go to fault. A fault number will be displayed on the analogue display. The fault codes are listed in Table B1, page 12.

If the unit goes to fault, the machine must be switched off POWER OFF and then on POWER ON, the door remains locked and the display rotates. The start button must be pressed for the unit to re-attempt another cycle. If the fault re-occurs, the machine remains locked and a Service Person must be called.

Note: Unit can be powered off and on more than once to retry for a complete cycle. The door will remain locked until a completed cycle is achie ved.



Section B – Unit Maintenance A qualified person should carry out all maintenance , preventative or breakdown. Failure to comply with this condition may result in unsafe conditions. The Flusher / Sanitizer is self cleaning, but proper care should be taken to ensure that the unit is cleaned and maintained in accordance with the maintenance instructions for Malmet Flusher / Sanitizers and in accordance with all other regulatory and commonsense practices. Preventative Maintenance Daily Maintenance a) Wipe out the inside of the door and chamber with warm water and detergent. A wipe with

disinfectant is also desirable.

b) Wipe over outside stainless steel panels with stainless steel cleaner.

c) Wipe the front control panel with a soft cloth and mild detergent as necessary. Care should be taken not to damage the digital display or to activate a cycle.

Maintenance – After One Month’s Operation (to be performed by a qualified maintenance person) a) Check for steam or water leaks. Tighten union, hose clamps and glands where necessary.

b) Check and tighten electrical connections on the contactor.

c) Remove and clean out sprays and bottle hooks (unscrew from inside chamber). Clean in ultrasonic cleaner if available. It is good practice to keep a spare set of spray domes for immediate change over. A 21 gauge syringe needle can also be used to clean the sprays and hooks.



Recommended Preventative Maintenance Schedule (to be performed by a qualified maintenance person) To be performed THREE TIMES YEARLY for units in constant day and night use and HALF YEARLY for units in lesser usage situations. a) Remove top and side panels and front bottom panel.

Note: Panel removal

i) Remove 2 x 5/32” screws on the top panel. ii) Push the side panel back then lift up to remove. iii) Remove 5 x 5/32” screws on bottom front panel.

b) Remove three spray and bottle hooks from inside the chamber – check that holes are clear and clean as necessary (hold under tap and pressurise or clean in ultrasonic cleaner). In areas with hard water or high minerals in water supply, chemical de-scaler may be the quickest and easiest means to remove built up deposits. Replace sprays and bottle hooks.

c) Start cycle and check that both hot and cold water pumps are working, check anti-syphon tube to test cold water pump first as it only works for the initial 13 seconds of the cycle. The no vent unit does not have an anti-syphon tube.

d) After ascertaining that the pumps are working properly, check the ball valve operation in both hot and cold water tanks. The ball valve arm should move freely and the hot water level and cold water level should be set to the level marks on the tanks (moulded indents on the tanks)

e) Make sure the ball valves are completely shutting off and levels are not creeping up, if so, clean and/or replace the ball valve seal.

f) Check the condition of the float valve and replace if necessary.

g) Tighten the screws retaining the pan rack on the door.

ONLY IF NECESSARY AFTER VISUAL CHECK

a) Remove brass piston in hot water ball valve and clean off scale. Replace rubber seal or reverse existing one. Grease plunger with DOW III High Temperature Grease or equivalent.

b) Clean dust and grit off components.

Table B1 – Fault Codes

Note : If a fault is displayed on the LED display, turn unit off and turn it back on, press START to

try to complete a cycle. If fault persists contact a Service Person.



Appendix A – Faults Diagram B1 (below) shows an example of fault mode display (Fault 01 indicated).

Diagram B1 Following is a more detailed list of fault conditions and most likely cause. Fault 01 Door Open Fault Expected Door Switch to Co nfirm Door has Closed This fault occurs whenever the door switch indicates a condition contrary to what the controller thinks it should be, usually this is an indication that there is a problem with the door switch detection circuitry or door switch mechanism. Fault 02 Wash Cycle Time Out – cycle Exceeded 10 Mi nutes This fault occurs only during a wash cycle and indicates that the cycle time limit has been exceeded. This may occur for instance if the hot water takes too long to heat and the santizing wash begins but runs out of time because of the extended heating time. No other faults have occurred except for the fact that the cycle time had been exceeded. Service Personnel may need to check electrics of heating elements of FS5 models or steam coil system on FS8 models. Fault 03 Low Water Level – on Non Vented Models Onl y Water level in large section of cold water tank has dropped below critical level necessary to maintain re-circulation water flow through chamber suction venturi ie water level has dropped below tank float switch. Check water supply to tank. Tank may not be filling fast enough between wash cycles. Fault 04 Door Micro Activation Period Exceeded There is a maximum time for door activation whenever the sanitizer is opening or closing the door. If this maximum time is exceeded, this fault will occur. This may be due to a faulty motor or incorrectly calibrated door current sensing on the controller. Note : The door open condition may be calibrated in Test Mode.



Fault 05 Spray Pipe Temperature did not Rise at Sta rt of Sanitize Wash This fault condition may occur at the start of a sanitizing wash cycle when the hot water takes too long to heat and does not reach the critical temperature to start the hot water sanitizing wash before the cycle time limit is exceeded. Fault 06 Currently Not Used Fault 07 Currently Not Used Fault 08 Door Closed Fault – Door Micro Switch not Confirming Door is Open This fault is similar to FAULT 01 but occurs when the controller expects the door switch to indicate open, just after opening the door. Fault 09 Water Temperature Does Not Reach Sanitizin g Starting Temperature This fault occurs during a sanitizing wash cycle when the hot water takes too long to heat and does not reach the critical temperature to start the hot water sanitizing wash before the cycle time limit is exceeded. Fault 10 Water Temperature Dropped Too Low Causing Cycle Time Out This fault will occur during a wash cycle whenever the cycle time is exceeded. This fault indicates that the sanitizing wash had started but dropped out because the tank water temperature dropped too low in the last attempt to perform the sanitizing wash before the cycle time limit was exceeded. Note : The drop-out referred to above is where the hot water pump is stopped to help tank to

reheat before attempting to complete cycle. Fault 11 Spray Pipe Temperature Dropped Too Low Cau sing Cycle Time Out This fault is similar to Fault 10 except that this fault indicates that the sanitzing wash drop-out in the last attempt was caused by the spray pipe temperature dropping too low. Fault 12 Short Circuit Water Temperature Probe Fault 13 Open Circuit Water Temperature Probe Fault 14 Short Circuit Spray Pipe Temperature Probe



Fault 15 Open Circuit Spray Pipe Temperature Probe This fault may also be triggered if the water temperature is sub-zero degrees Celsius which is an unlikely operating condition. Note : The sanitizer has a current limit circuit for the door motor which will collapse the power

supply of the controller whenever the motor current stays too high too long or if the 24v supply is removed.



Appendix B – Additional Faults not detected by controller Section 1 – Faults These are other faults that may occur which the controller cannot detect (the controller may however indicate a fault with the following conditions).

Element protection thermostat button keeps coming out

1. Check ball valve in hot water tank. Could be sticking in ‘up’ position and not allowing water to fill the tank. Remove the arm and seal, clean the piston and renew high temperature rubber seals if necessary.

2. Check if in-coming water supply is turned on.

3. Faulty TL4 Over Temperature Protection Thermostat.

Not Washing Pans 1. Check that the cold water pump is working.

2. Check that there is cold water in the tank (controller should keep pump on for 13 seconds)

No Power to Control Box 1. Check the fuse in the Mains Entry Box.

Leaking Water onto the Floor 1. Check all hose fittings.

2. Check water levels and ball floats.

3. Check pump seals ( to renew pump seal see page 10)

Smell Coming from Unit 1. Air vent is not installed properly (see Installation instructions)



Section 2 – Installation Installations for Replacin g the Involute Pump Seal 1. Switch power off.

2. Loosen hose clamps and remove rubber hose.

3. Drain water from hot water tank. CAUTION – water may be hot.

4. Remove the four screws securing the pump housing to the motor.

5. Remove the front section of the pump housing.

6. Hold the shaft of the motor by replacing a piece of 3mm rod into the hole in the shaft, which can be seen through the slots where the body joins the motor.

7. Unscrew the impellor in a counter clockwise direction.

8. Remove the large section of the pump housing.

9. Place the large section of the housing on a solid, flat surface and apply pressure by means of a press, bench drill or hammer to remove the old seal from the housing.

10. Remove ceramic block and sealing washer from the impellor.

11. Clean all parts to remove old silicon and any scale build up and inspect parts for cracks, etc.

12. To fit the new seal, place the body on a flat, solid surface in the face up position. Apply a small amount of silicon or similar to the outside surface of the new seal. Push the new seal into position ensuring it is seated completely into the small recess in the housing. Remove excess silicone and smear a small amount of silicone around the edge of the seal.

13. Fit the new ceramic block and sealing washer to the impellor making sure that the grooves or dimples in the ceramic block are facing towards the rubber sealing washer.

14. Re-assemble the pump in reverse of the above (see Note).

Note : A small amount of silicone should be used on the surface between the front and rear

housing before replacing the four screws securing this section to the motor.

New Buildings Service connections are normally pre-placed after planning and consultation with all interested parties. Installation then generally becomes a matter of connection to the services provided. As the soil line (sewerage outlet) is the least flexible of all the connections, this usually influences the decision as to where to place the Flusher / Sanitizer. If an existing soil line can be utilised this will represent a big cost saving. The Flusher / Sanitizer is supplied with either a ‘P’ or ‘S’ trap as nominated by the Purchaser. The ‘S’ Trap connects through the floor and the ‘P’ Trap connects through the back wall. The trap section is easily removed, if the wrong trap has been ordered it can be exchanged. Refer to Diagram C2 for ‘P’ and ‘S’ connections. Note : Due to high temperatures (approximately 80°C) at the trap outlet, it is recommended that

the soil line be run in copper on earthenware for the first four (4) metres.



Note: Bell Ends can be cut off to suit

Any length of installation

Diagram C2

FOR REASONABLE CONNECTION WORKING SPACE ALLOW MINIM UM 100mm FROM REAR TO WALL

FREE STANDING ‘S’ TRAP PIPE POSITIONING FREE STANDING

‘P’ TRAP PIPE POSITIONING

At this spacing the centre of the soil line to receive the ‘S’ Trap should be approximately 172mm from back wall. To allow for normal recommended minimum service access, space soil line 600/700mm from side wall.

If space restrictions do not allow for recommended side service access, we suggest preference be given to providing the most space available on the left hand side as you look at the front of the machine. This will ease any difficulty in servicing the hot water tank.

The centre of the soil line to receive the ‘P’ Trap should be approximately 400mm from the floor when the unit is positioned 100mm from the wall. Because this pipe is graded to 5° this measurement will vary as the unit is installed closer or further away from the back wall.

Note: For wall recessed units ‘S’ & ‘P’ trap outlet is on the centre line of the cabinet. See Diagram C2.



Plumbing Note: Plumbing Connection must comply to AS3500 a) Soil Line Note : Due to high temperature (approximately 80°C) at t he trap outlet, it is recommended

that the soil line be run in copper, earthenware or high temperature plastic piping for the first four (4) metres.

Make soil line connection using a pan collar or other preferred method. If the belled end on the polyethylene moulded trap is no required it can easily be cut off to provide a straight pipe connection.

Level the unit by using the flanged screw in legs and if possible maintain approximately 100mm floor clearance for ease of floor cleaning. We recommend some of the leg flanges are fixed to the floor via stainless steel self taping screws, dyna bolts or similar to prevent sideways movement and damage to services and soil line connections.

Refer to Diagram C2 for soil line connection dimensions.

b) Hot Water

All models can be connected to any NORMAL mains pressure hot water supply as there is an airbreak incorporated within the unit. All electric heated models can be connected to any hot water supply of at least 45°C minimum. For maximum efficiency and the shortest cyclic time in repetitive usage, we recommend a hot water supply temperature to the machine of 58°C or above.

Please Note

Electric Units It is highly recommended that the larger hot water element (16.6kW) be fitted if hospital’s hot water temperature to the sanitizer is below 45°C. For recommended wiring see page 18.

Steam Units It is recommended that the water temperature to the sanitizer be at least 70°C if the steam pressure is below 20 PSI

FS5 and FS8 Models The hot water supply should be connected via an isolating valve or cistern stop cock ideally placed approximately 600mm above the floor close to the left hand side of the unit. The connection is made directly on the ball valve of the internal hot water tank and is a compression olive fitting to suit standard 12mm (½”) copper tubing. When making the connection, care should be taken to not over tighten the fitting and rotate the ball valve in the tank causing the float arm to foul on the side of the tank.



c) Cold Water

All models can be connected to any NORMAL mains pressure cold water supply as there is an airbreak incorporated within the unit. The cold water tank is situated at the top rear of the unit. Cold supply should be connected to it via an isolating valve or cistern stop cock ideally placed 1200mm above the floor close to the left hand side of the unit. The connection fitting is a compression olive type to suit 12mm (½”) standard copper pipe.

d) Steam

FS8 Models A 12mm (½” BSP) chrome plated bronze isolating valve should be placed 950mm above the floor and as near as possible to the unit. Use chrome plated 19mm heavy gauge tube and gun metal unions. Long rungs should be insulated. A steam trap is supplied. Pressure above 50 PSI (345kPa) must be reduced with a suitable reducing valve. Steam pressures between 20 and 50 PSI (137 – 345kPa) may be used. If using steam pressure below 20 PSI the incoming hot water must be at least 70°C.

e) Condensate

FS8 Models A 12mm (½” BSP) connection should be made from the steam trap provided. Chrome plated copper tube should be used where visible. The line can be run to a cooling bench and drain outside the building or returned to the boiler as required. Avoid excessive back pressure on the steam trap if the latter method is used.

f) Chamber Vent (not required on Non Vent Models)

A 50mm vent connection, either top or back entry is provided. The vent should be run to atmosphere with minimum of elbows, bends and horizontal sections. Do not reduce this line below 50mm under any circumstances . With top entry vents we supply two 50mm chrome plated domes – one for the top cover and one for the ceiling penetration. Chrome plated copper or stainless steel tube (No.4 Polish finish is available from your distributor) should be used, NOT IN PVC BELOW CEILING. A Universal Flashing Boot or similar should be used for sealing against the weather at the roof penetration. A 50mm weather cowl is necessary on the end of the tube and should be placed at least one metre above the roof line.



Refer to Diagram C3 for position of vent in the top of the unit.

Diagram C3 g) Trap Vent

A 1” BSP socket is supplied on the ‘S’ or ‘P’ trap. Where regulations require this trap to be vented, drill the trap out through the socket to 13mm. The vent pipe is then attached. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CONNECT THIS VENT TO THE INTERNAL CHAMBER VENT PIPE WORK. SEPARATE CONNECTION TO BUILDING VENT RISER PIPE WORK IS RECOMMENDED.

Post Installation Precautions a) Before switching the unit on make sure the water taps are on and tanks are full to the

correct levels. Levels should be to just below internal moulded conical markers on side of tanks.

b) Switch unit on, digital display will illuminate. The water in the hot water tank is then heated to the required temperature causing 9 minutes (approximately) delay in the first instance, this delay will not re-occur whilst the power remains switched on.

Note: DO NOT USE THE UNIT WITHOUT THE WATER SUPPLY TURNED ON.
