Abstract:
A system for selectively adding a plurality of liquid chemicals to a laundry machine in response to triggering signals from the machine is disclosed. Pumps are provided for pumping chemicals from their shipping drums through conduit means to the washing machine. Control means are associated with this system allowing the operator to remotely vary the chemical mix pumped to the washer by making control switch selections. The selections correspond to the soil levels of the laundry load, the presence of greasy soils, the need for bleach and the presence of permanent press fabrics. This injection process is controlled by a plurality of sequentially activated electrical timers that energize relays to in turn energize the pumps in selected groups. Means are provided for limited remote monitoring of the function of the system.
