Technical

Below are the technical questions we get asked on a regular basis and our answers to them. More detailed information is available on our brochures & our operator manuals which are supplied with each machine sold. However if you have any other enquiries or comments that are not covered below please contact us.

What type of detergent should I use?

Norris recommends the use of Zexa Chemicals. Norris is also offering a 5 year parts & labour warranty when signing up to the Zexa warranty package.

What about rinse aid?

Rinse aid is used to speed up the drying of washed articles & to reduce streaking/spotting on items. It can be adjusted in the same manner as the detergent.

Does the unit need to be connected to hot water?

The new AP Series was developed with connecting to cold water in mind, reducing heating expenses. For our other machines we recommend that they are connected to hot water. If cold water is the only available connection, this will decrease the efficiency of the machine – increasing the wait times between cycles.

What regular maintenance is recommended?

• Drain the machine every night, rinse and check that the following are clear of blockages & debris
• Clean Scrap trays & filters at the end of each shift.
• Wash & Rinse jets. Occasional use of a commercial liquid de-scale, will assist with the removal of detergent & calcium build up in the wash chamber of your machine. Using Zexa Chemicals does not require the use of a de-scaler.
