levers empty the machine quickly and safely.
Front-sloping, V-shaped wash tanks - For
faster draining and easier cleaning.
Double-wall, insulated construction -
Improves operator safety, conserves energy,
and reduces heat loss into the environment.
Waste Air Heat Recovery System - Utilizes
the waste heat generated by the machine to
pre-heat the incoming rinse water, reducing
energy consumption and allowing hot-water
sanitization from a cold water supply.

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Overview of Equipment
Meiko K-Tronic series rack conveyors are
commercial dishwashers designed for
cleaning dishes, glassware, trays, cutlery and
kitchen utensils with a minimum of employee
intervention or supervision.
A control keypad allows easy selection of
three different conveyor speeds to accommo-
date different levels of soiling. A digital display
permits easy monitoring of operation.
Operation is fully automatic. When a rack is
pushed into the opening of the machine, the
pawl bar drive is activated. The internal Mike
3 electronic controller automatically activates
the prewash (if so equipped), wash and rinse
zones, while maintaining proper tank temperatures.
During idle periods, the wash and rinse pumps
are deactivated to conserve water, energy and
chemicals, while steam coil or electric tank
heaters maintain the water temperature for
quick recovery.
Other features of the unit that affect operation
include:
Mike 3 electronic control system -
Automatically monitors and regulates tank
temperatures. A digital display allows
monitoring of tank temperatures, conveyor
speed, and other information.
Internal booster heater - to ensure constant
final rinse temperatures.
Pumped final rinse - A final rinse pump
ensures constant pressure for the final rinse,
for consistent, outstanding results.
Pumped auxiliary rinse - Final rinse water
is captured and recirculated over the ware as
a pumped pre-rinse, conserving water and
chemicals.
Side-drive system - Racks are advanced
through the machine using pawl bars at the
sides of the rack rails. This provides an
unobstructed wash pattern.
Wash arm manifolds - Wash arms are pre-
assembled into easily-removed manifolds for
faster cleaning. The nozzles are slotted and
