OASIS PWEBF Drinking Fountain VersaFiller Combo

Introduction

The Hands-Free VersaFiller is an extension of the Aqua Pointe®product line that mounts directly above Versacooler® I and II products.
If installed onto a refrigerated cooler, chilled water can be dispensed through the VersaFiller. Otherwise, room temperature water will be dispensed.
The VersaFiller is shipped partially assembled.
On the combo units, the cooler is plumbed and ready to attach to the VersaFiller.

When completed, the finished assembly will look like this:

Oasis PWEBF & PWFEBF: Versacooler® II Split Level Modelswith Hands-Free VersaFiller

On split level models, the VersaFiller must be mounted on the low unit in order to meet ADA guidelines.

Section 4A: Installation

Note: Proceed to Sect 3B Step 5 “Final steps for both product families” if the cooler is purchased “VersaFiller ready”.

A: Drilling hole in the top for water line connection.

1. Disconnect power by UNPLUGGING unit. It might be necessary to remove the front panel to get access to the power.
2. Turn OFF water supply to the unit. It might be necessary to remove the front panel to access the water stop valve.
3. Place hole template onto cooler top so it is aligned with the left side of unit and wall. SEE NEXT PAGE FOR TEMPLATE4. Mark hole location
4. Remove top from unit.

Remove top from cooler by removing six, #15 torx head screws on sides of top.

5. Using a step drill bit or 7/8” punch die, make a 7/8” hole through top. You may want to drill a pilot hole to get these started.
6. Install snap bushing into hole to protect tubing from being cut.

Section 4B: Installation

B: Connecting the water line

Note: If you are retrofitting the Versafiller to an existing cooler, follow the instructions starting on page 11.

For the single “Versafiller ready” cooler, the tube to connect to the Versafilleris found inside the access panel (the compressor compartment) or found inside the Bottle Filler. This tube supplies cold water from the cooling tank to the Versafiller.

For split level “Versafiller ready” coolers, the tube to plumb in the Versafiller is packaged in the dummy unit or found inside the Bottle Filler.
Remove tube from bag.

First, remove plug from fitting on tank drain

Next, insert end of tube into fitting.

The tee and tube to the Versafiller are packaged with the PWEBF unit. One branch of the tee will supply the valve on the dummy unit, the other branch of the tee will connect to the Versafiller.

If a filter is being installed, cut a piece of tubing about 3” long to insert (optional) flow switch right after filter and before tee. This allows Versafiller counter to accurately calculate amount of water passing through filter.

Go to Step 5 “Final steps for both product families:”

To retrofit the Versafiller to an existing unit, follow the instructions below:

If the cooling tank is non-pressurized, then go to the “Pressurizing the cooling tank” addendum section. Otherwise, proceed to step 1 below. Non- pressurized units are single units made since December of 2009. Refer to the schematic below to identify the system that you have.

1. With the cooler top removed, find the tube going from the cooling tank outlet to the valve. The TEE fitting (supplied) will need to connect between the cooling tank and valve.
   
   Section 4B: Installation: For the P8AC Version: Versacooler II

2. Disconnect tubing from the elbow on the valve.

3. Using the 38” piece of tubing provided, cut 6” and install it on the end of the TEE. Install the remaining tubing onto the branch of the TEE. Connect the other end of the TEE to the tank outlet tubing (tube that was disconnected from the elbow).
   

4. Route the TEE and tubing under the waste drain and connect the 6” length to the water valve elbow.
   
   Section 4B: Installation: For the P8AM Version: Versacooler I

5. Remove tar tape from the insulation on the outlet tube.

6. Pull back insulation and cut the copper tube with a tubing cutter. Cut where there is at least 1 inch of straight tubing on each side of the cut.
   

7. Install TEE fitting by connecting the copper tubing to each end. Then install the 32” piece of plastic tubing to the TEE branch.

Section 4B: Installation: Final steps for both product families:

8. Feed black and blue tubing up through bushing in top.
   • For single unit, also feed white tube attached to tee through bushing.
   • For split level, connect tee and white tube packed with bottle filler per schematic below.
   Attach top to cooler. If flow switch was installed, cord from flow switch must also pass through this bushing.
   
   

Section 4C: Installation

C: Mounting the frame to the wall

1. Place rubber gasket on top of the cooler so it is centered left/right and against the wall.

2. Set the wall frame onto the gasket. Center it left/right and push it against the wall and mark hole locations for wall fasteners. The gasket will set the frame at the proper height.
   

3. Secure frame to the wall with fasteners (not provided). Pull plastic tubing up through the hole in the frame.

Section 4D: Installation

D: Installing and Flushing Filter Cartridge (PWFEBF only)

1. Insert filter cartridge, rotate ¼ turn until locked.
2. Route water supply plastic tube attached to filter head inlet (left side) through hole in fame and top. Connect to fountain water supply.
3. Route filter outlet tube attached filter head outlet (right side) to fountain drain in top. Flush filter cartridge before connecting to fountain cooling tank inlet fitting.4. Turn ON the water supply and flush the filter for one-minute or until the water runs clear.
4. Connect the filter outlet tube to cooling tank inlet.
   

Section 4E: Installation

1. Slide sponge tubing insulation over water line. Connect the tubing to the INLET of the solenoid valve elbow fitting on the back of the Hands-free VersaFiller assembly.
   
   E: Attaching the Tether

2. Install bottle filler tether with the steps below.
   
   
   
   
   
   The tether keeps the bottle filler secured to the frame when changing the filter. Make sure the tether is installed properly to avoid accidental damage to the unit.
   

3. Before the Bottle Filler cabinet is set into place, feed the terminals on the power supply power cord and the long green ground wire through the bushing on the cooler top.

4. Connect male terminals on the bottle filler power supply to female terminals on power cord. Make sure that the power cord is firmly connected to the power supply.

5. Attach the long green ground wire to cooler power cord ground located on cooler frame or to electrical box ground.

6. MAKE SURE the cabinet fits into the groove in the rubber gasket on both sides and front of the wrapper.
   
   See next page to secure Bottle Filler assembly to frame with torx screws.

7. Attach Bottle Filler assembly to the frame using two (2) torx screws. If you are going to change the electronics default settings, remove the Top Cap and two (2) torx screws.

8. Plug bottle filler cord into the electrical outlet. The program should be set up specific for that installation. See the program guide on next page. Access programing Pushbutton through top of Bottle Filler.

9. Turn ON water supply and check for leaks. Place a container in the alcove to release any trapped air from the system. Plug in the power cord and replace the front panel.

10. If everything works correctly, place the Top Cap back on the Bottle Filler and the two (2) torx screws to fasten it in place. Otherwise, calibrate the sensor per the instructions on the next page.
