Garbage disposal tips
Caution: Never use hot water. Heat melts fat, allowing it to flow
down along the sides of the drain pipe where it could solidify and
eventually cause a blockage. Cold water causes fat to harden, which
allows the impellers and shredder to grind it into bits. The motor
that drives the flywheel in models that are able to do heavy work
is a capacitor-start motor. The motor used in other models is a
split-phase motor (see the chapter on small electric fans for a
discussion of split-phase motors). Capacitor-start and split-phase
motors are similar to each other, with one notable exception. The
capacitor start motor has a capacitor which assists in starting
the motor, giving the motor substantial starting torque that allows
it to handle heavier loads. A capacitor-start motor is equipped
with two field coils; so is a split-phase motor. One coil is the
starting coil, and the e other is a running coil. In a capacitor-start
motor, the starting coil is wired in series with the capacitor.
This means that when the appliance is turned on the capacitor gives
the starting coil a boost to start the motor with sufficient torque
to overcome the load imposed on it by heavier foodstuffs. A garbage
disposer equipped with a capacitor-start motor is able to handle
two quarts of all kinds of food waste, while one equipped with a
split-phase motor can handle only one quart of food wastes that
are limited in bulkiness.
Once the motor is started continued operation could overload the
motor. Thus, a centrifugal switch is included in the mechanism,
as it is in a split-phase motor. This switch opens up to take the
capacitor and starting coil out of the circuit, and the operation
of the motor is assumed by the running coil. a matter of switches
THE NUMBER AND TYPE of switches from one garbage
disposer to another may vary. However, every disposer has an on-off
switch. Some disposers have the on-off switch mounted on a wall
above the sink. The switch resembles an ordinary light switch. The
type of garbage disposer that uses this switch is called a continuous-feed
model, because you can stuff garbage into the disposer while the
appliance is running. This, however, is not necessarily a desirable
feature, especially with youngsters in the home. They could stick
their hands into the disposer while the unit is operating. Adults
are not immune from accidents either. For this reason, the other
method of switching is considered by many to be more desirable.
The on-off switch is positioned in the mouth of the disposer and
is controlled by the stopper. The type of garbage disposer using
a switch of this sort is called a batch-feed model. When the stopper
is loose or out of the unit's -mouth, the switch is deactivated,
and the unit can't run. After you fill the hopper with garbage,
you have to install the stopper, turn and lock it in place. Some
garbage disposers also have an on-off switch in the cold-water line
that works in conjunction with the other on-off switch. The cold-water
switch assures that the disposer won't operate until cold water
is flowing into it even though the other on-off switch is "on."Many
garbage-disposer motors are equipped with an overload switch. This
shuts off current if too heavy a load is imposed on the motor. The
units have a button that can be pressed to reactivate them once
the load has been lessened.
