Hello all,
For those who havent seen, this is my newest addition to my collection. Some might ask why I own and use a commercial washer extractor in a domestic enviroment, but I'm a commercial appliance engineer and have access to scrappers (These have 4 different boards in, so they could get costly!) and I love these machines, so why not! I'm intending to keep it through till I have my own home and use it as a daily driver there. I have a matching dryer ( T4130 ) and an older W355H to accomodate in the new year too.
The machine's operating system is Compass Control, which has been replaced by Compass Pro on Electrolux's newer 5000 line. Machine was built in July 2011. It's gravity drain and uses Electrolux's frequency controlled motor; Max spin is 1300rpm/ G factor 425. It runs on a 1~ power supply. The machine has a 55L drum which holds 6kg/13lb of laundry, it looks very simalar to the drums fitted to some domestic Electrolux machines but this machine has a ''Sluice'' function and cycle, so the perforations are slightly larger. I could set it up with Auto Dosing detergent pumps, but... It's begining to cost a lot like Christmas!
The machine is missing its 'W455H' badge, but I have ordered a new fascia competley for the machine with buttons with temperatures on, mine currently say 1 and 2 for 2 pre set cycles, but the stickers no longer correspond with the 2 pre set cycles now ive changed them! I should also add, the Elux badge on its plinth is not original, it came from a scrap commercial fridge we replaced in the week, but the plinth is an Elux genuine plinth. Once the new fascia is fitted, it'll be perfect.
I will record and upload some cycles after finishing off setting it up, need to work out why theres 3 Delicate 30*C cycles...
Any questions about the machine etc, do ask and I'll answer them to my best knowlege!
