The AM-2 Panel provides plumbing and electrical controls for Self Cleaning hoods when
the design of the application does not allow for a utility cabinet on the end of the hood. The plumbing
assembly includes a combination pressure/temperature gauge, shock absorber, pressure reducing valve, water
solenoid valve, surfactant pump, surfactant tank, line strainer and ball valve.
The Self Cleaning operation is intuitive: At the beginning of the day the fan switch is turned ON and
the fans start running. At the end of the day, when the cooking is done, the fan switch is turned OFF,
the fans shut off and the Hot Water Wash Cycle automatically starts.
The AM-2 Control Panel can be ordered in conjunction with an electrical control prewire for full control
of the fans and wash cycle, Model M40. Or it can be ordered with starter coil control only for both
exhaust and supply fans, Model M41, if the starters are provided by others.
The Self Cleaning operation has two options available: Hot Water or Cold Water Mist
with Hot Water Wash. The Hot Water option automatically cleans the hood/plenum after
the cooking operations are completed for the day. By washing the plenum while the hood is hot, wash and cleaning
effectiveness increases. Surfactant will be injected into the wash for one second, every one minute of the cycle.
The wash time is adjustable to meet the needs of every application. The Cold Water Mist with Hot Water Wash
option immediately cools the gasses in the plenum during operation and then washing the plenum down while the hood is still
hot at the end of the day.
