It is a device that automatically adjusts the amount of detergent and rinse aid added to the dishwasher based on the wash cycle, machine type, and water hardness. This ensures optimal results, reduces waste, and protects the machine.

Here is a practical and detailed guide on the use and installation of automatic detergent and rinse aid dispensers for professional dishwashers.

Installing the dispensers

1. Selecting the installation location

• Place the dispenser near the dishwasher, in an accessible location for maintenance and refilling.
• Make sure there is enough space for the detergent and rinse aid containers.

2. Electrical connection

• Connect the dispenser to the electrical supply according to the manufacturer’s specifications (usually 230V).
• Some models connect directly to the dishwasher’s circuit board to synchronize the dosing with the wash cycles.

3. Water Connection

• Insert the suction hoses into the detergent and rinse aid containers.
• Attach the delivery hoses to the dishwasher’s inlet points (usually marked or pre-arranged).

4. Initial Setup

• Set the dosing times or flow parameters (depending on the pump type: timed or proportional).
• Some models allow digital adjustment via the display or app.

Daily Use

Startup and Operation

• The dispenser activates automatically at the start of the wash cycle.
• Precise dosing of:
  • Detergent at the start of the cycle
  • Rinse aid in the final rinse phase
  • Refilling Products
• Check the container levels regularly.
• Use products compatible with the pump type (liquid or solid).
• Avoid mixing different products to avoid damaging the system.

Maintenance

• Clean the hoses and filters every 1–2 months.
• Check for scale or blockages.
• Replace hoses every 6–12 months to ensure efficiency and hygiene.

Helpful Tips
