PRODUCT OVERVIEW WASHER SECTION The washer section of the S1000 is essentially the same as all of the other washers. We have used the power unit from the deep tub washer and the standard sized tubs to shorten the height of the washer top. A single-speed motor is used with the Fabric-Matic system for Delicate, Regular and Permanent Press cycles. Low voltage relays are used for the interfacing between the computer controls and the motor for On/Off control (run relay) and direction control (reversing relay) for agitate and spin operations. The water valve is a special low voltage DC version of the valve we have been using on the standard washers. The coils are designed for operation on 24 volts direct current. Operation is direct from the computer control board and does not require relay interfacing. DRYER SECTION The dryer section is a shortened-depth version of the “12” model dryers. Using the same front and rear bulkheads as the “12” model dryers and a “shorter” tumbler, the depth of the dryer is 21 inches overall. Drum capacity is 4.7 cubic feet. That is approximately the size of the “Halo-Of-Heat” dryers and is a match to the washer capacity. Internal construction is the same as the “12” model dryers and service procedures are very similar. As in the washer section, low voltage relays are used to interface the computer controls with the line-voltage standard components, such as the motor and heating element (electric models) or gas valve assembly (gas models). A choice of moisture sensing electronic controlled or time controlled drying is made through touch-pad entry on the control face. The heat input is matched to the capacity of the dryer. The electric element is approximately 4,600 watts at 240 volts AC and the gas valve is rated at 18,000 BTU/ hour. The electric element wire is the same material and diameter as the regular element but is shorter in overall length. The gas valve is very similar to the regular dryer except for the location of the outlet port and the size of the orifice. Supplied only for natural gas, it is convertible to LP. Check your parts catalog for correct part number. The controls system for both the washer and dryer are covered in the Cycle Description and in the Controls Section.
