4.0  INSTaLLaTION prOceDUreS

4.1  pre-planning the Installation

There is no substitute for planning the installation prior to 

beginning the work, minutes in planning may save hours in 

installation time. The following items should be taken into 

consideration before installing the GeoCenter:

•  Allow visual displays on the front of the cabinet to be in 

full view of the operator.

•  Permit  shortest  possible  tube,  wire,  and  conduit 

lengths

•  Provide accessibility for adjustments and servicing.

•  Provide as much protection from moisture/steam and 

heat as possible.

The following items should be taken into consideration before 

installing the Sensor. The sensor should be located in an 

area of the wash tank that provides:

•  A minimum 2" (5 cm) from the tank bottom, sidewall, 

overflow piping, etc.

•  As  far  as  possible  (2"  minimum)  (5  cm)  from  heater 

elements or coils.

•  Protection from physical hazards.
•  For constant submersion of all parts of the sensor in 

the wash water. This is a particular concern on shallow 

tank machines.

NOTE: The S-2000 Sensor is provided with a 12' cable 

and mounts from the inside of the washtank. Sufficient 

clearance on the inside is required to allow insertion/

removal of the sensor.
NOTE: A S-2000 sensor with 24' cable is available where 

necessary (9212-2316).

4.2  Installing the Transformer

1.  Mount the plastic transformer enclosure assembly into 

the plastic GeoCenter enclosure. 

(Refer to Figure 4-1)

Attach to plastic GeoCenter enclosure with 8-32 x 5/16 

screw in kit bag. Ground using green/yellow wire.

4.3  Mounting the Geocenter

1.  Mount  the  GeoCenter  cabinet  to  the  wall  using  the 

supplied screws, washers and plastic wall anchors. The 

GeoCenter cabinet may also be installed on top of the 

dish machine, using the universal mounting brackets, 

and may be the preferred location in some installations. 

The installation should be secure, neat and square, 

refer to 

Figure 4-1.

4.4  Mounting Sensor in Wash Tank

Review Item 4.1, Pre-planning the Installation,

 before the 

installation begins.

IMPORTANT:  Before  drilling  the  hole  check  for 

obstructions  both  inside  and  outside  of  the  wash 

tank.

1.  Cut a 7/8" (22 mm) hole into the wash tank wall.

WALL ANCHOR

2. 

Properly DEBURR the hole. 

3.  Attach the sensor connector to the tank using the pro-

vided metal lock nut and the stainless steel and rubber 

washers  on  both  the  inside  and  outside  surfaces  of 

the tank wall. Regardless of which sensor is used, the 

packing nut end of the tank connector must be on the 

outside of the machine wall, 

refer to Figure 4-2.

4.  Position the sensor by sliding it through the connector 

opening and tightening the packing nut.

4.5  Geosystem Detergent Dispenser 

Installation

1.  Install  the  desired  Geosystem  Detergent  Dispenser 

following the installation instructions provided for that 

unit.

4.6  VaNGUarD Wash Max Installation

1.  Install the desired VANGuARD wash Max following the 

installation instructions provided for that unit.
