A series of nozzles along a trough aid in the pre-rinse and scrapping of dishes. Water ﬂow down the trough moves waste into a scrap basket, which can then be emptied into a waste or compost receptacle, while water soluble waste is sent down the drain. The trough system increases efﬁciency by allowing multiple users to scrap and pre-soak dishes at the same time. The PowerRinse Waste Collection System is an alternative to using a food waste disposer or pulper system. This Installation, Care, and Use Manual is for the Trough (Model PRT) only (see Figure 1) . For the Standard (Model PRS) and Pot/Pan (Model PRP), please reference separate document. The PowerRinse Waste Collection System is CUL® US Listed when installed in conjunction with InSinkErator pumps and controls, and per the installation instructions in this Installation, Care, and Use Manual (see Figures 3 and 4 for typical installations) . This Installation, Care, and Use Manual covers the models listed in Table 1. Table 1. Electrical Speciﬁcations | PowerRinse® Waste Collection System
