THEORY OF OPERATION
(see applicable Figure 2 or 3)
WARNING: CO2 dis places oxygen. Strict attention mus t be obs erved in the prevention of
CO2 (carbon dioxide) gas leaks in the entire CO2 and s oft drink s ys tem. If a CO2 gas leak is
s us pected, particularly in a s mall area, immediately ventilate the contaminated area before
attempting to repair the leak. Pers onnel expos ed to high concentration of CO2 gas will experience
tremors which are followed rapidly by los s of cons cious nes s and s uffocation.
NOTE: The s ix-flavor (s ee Figure 3) Unit was s et up at the factory to dis pens e a s till (noncarbonated)
drink from No. 3 dis pens ing valve and carbonated drinks from the remaining dis pens ing valves .
A CO2 cylinder delivers carbon dioxide (CO2) gas through adjustable CO2 regulators to applicable syrup tanks
or bag-in-box syrup system syrup pumps and to a built-in carbonator located inside the Unit. Plain water is
pumped into the carbonator carbonated water tank by a water pump and is carbonated by regulated CO2 gas
pressure also entering the tank. When a dispensing valve is opened, CO2 gas pressure exerted upon the syrup
tank or on the bag-in-box system syrup pump, pushes syrup through the Unit syrup cooling coils, and on to the
dispensing valve. Carbonated water is pushed by CO2 gas pressure from the carbonated water tank and
passes through the Unit carbonated water cooling coils, and on to the dispensing valve.
Syrup and carbonated water meet simultaneously at the dispensing valve resulting in a carbonated drink being
dispensed. On the six-flavor Unit, a still (noncarbonated) drink is dispensed from the No. 3 dispensing valve in
the same manner as the carbonated drink except plain water is substituted for carbonated water.
The carbonated water tank is replenished when the carbonated water level inside the tank drops, which in turn
automatically starts the carbonator water pump. When the carbonated water level inside the tank has been re-
plenished, the carbonated water pump will stop.

IMPORTANT: TO THE INSTALLER. It is the res pons ibility of the Ins taller to ens ure that the water s upply
to the dis pens ing equipment is provided with protection agains t backflow by an air gap as defined in
ANSI/ASME A112. 1.2-1979; or an approved vacuum breaker or other s uch method as proved effective
by tes t.
Water pipe connections and fixtures directly connected to a potable water s upply s hall be s ized,
ins talled, and maintained according to Federal, State, and Local laws .
CAUTION: Check the minimum flow rate and maximum pres s ure of plain water inlet s upply
line. MINIMUM FLOW RATE MUST BE AT LEAST 100-GALLONS PER HOUR. If flow rate is
les s than 100-gallons per hour, s tarving of carbonator water pump will occur. Starving will
allow water pump to overheat and will damage the pump. Overheating could occur if plain water
inlet s upply line flow rate drops below 100-gallons per hour. CARBONATOR CO2 OPERATING
PRESSURE MUST EXCEED WATER PRESSURE BY 10 PSI. (Example: CO2 operating pres s ure is 80
ps i, maximum water pres s ure can be no more than 70 ps i, etc.) Water over pres s ure (higher than
