The dispenser comes from the factory with flow restrictors in the mix chambers. With the restrictors in place the dispense rate is about 1.8 oz./sec (53.2 ml/sec) and is used primarily for cup at a time dispensing. The flow restrictors can be removed to increase the dispense rate to about 2.5 oz./sec (74 ml/sec) for larger volume dispensing (airpots, carafes, etc.).
NOTE: The hot water FlowRate is fixed at approximately 1.7 oz/sec. and can not be adjusted.
Removing the restrictors:

  1. Disconnect the dispenser from the AC power source.
  2. Open the Product Cabinet door.
  3. Remove the concentrate tube, vent line and grommet from mix chamber ports in side the product cabinet.
  4. Remove the two screws that fasten mix chamber to the control panel.
  5. Gently pull mix chamber away from dispenser to expose water line connection, (you may have to rotate it slightly).
  6. Disconnect FlavorGard™ sensor wire and hot water tubing from the mix chamber.
  7. Remove the flow restrictor from the inlet to the mix chamber.
  8. Reconnect FlavorGard™ sensor wire and hot water tubing to the mix chamber.
  9. Place mix chamber back into position in the dispenser, (you may have to rotate it slightly) and secure it with the two screws
  10. Reposition the grommet, vent line and pump tubing onto the mix chamber ports.

Caution: Failure to properly replace and secure any of the above components may result leaks and/or cause damage to the dispenser.
If you changed the Dispenser Flow Rate, you will need to reprogram the dispenser to the new rate, see Programming the Dispenser.
CAUTION: Failure to reprogram the Dispenser Flow Rates will result in inaccurate Mix Ratios.
Reprogramming the Dispenser Flow Rate:

  1. Remove the lower splash guard panel and locate the Programming module.
  2. Use the Down Arrow key to enter into the programming function and scroll through the menu’s to the “CAL LEFT SIDE?” menu and select “YES”.
  3. Scroll down to the “CAL LF WTR VOL” menu
  4. Use the (+) & (-) keys to enter a volume of 50 Oz. (1478 mL). This will recalibrate the Left dispenser to the new rate.
  5. Scroll down to the “CAL RT WTR VOL” menu
  6. Use the (+) & (-) keys to enter a volume of 50 Oz. (1478 mL). This will recalibrate the Right dispenser to the new rate.
  7. Select “Exit” to leave the programming menu.
    Note: The default volume of 50 Oz (1478 mL), is the typical Cal Volume for a 2.5 Oz/sec Flow Rate Test, see Field Calibration of the Concentrate Pumps / Dispenser Flow Rates.

ADJUSTING MIX RATIOS

The dispenser comes with the Mix Ratios preset to 35:1. The Left and Right ratios can be set for any ratios between 20:1 and 100:1, (refer the concentrate package or the supplier for the recommended ratio). Once the recommended ratio has been entered, the Ratios can be adjusted to suit local taste preferences (i.e. lighter or darker).
Procedure for Adjusting the Mix Ratio to Taste:

  1. Set the left and right dispense ratios to the recommended ratios for the concentrate to be used – refer to “PROGRAMMING THE DISPENSER” section in this manual.

  2. Load the concentrate in the cabinet – refer to “LOADING THE CONCENTRATE” section in this manual.

  3. Allow the dispenser to fill with water and heat up to the Ready temp – refer to “INITIAL FILL AND HEAT” section in this manual.

  4. Prime both pumps – refer to “PRIMING THE CONCENTRATE LINES” section in this manual.

  5. Dispense Product (left and right) for approx. 30 sec and discard. This will finish priming the lines and allow the pumps time to adjust to the target RPM.

  6. Dispense one full cup of coffee (8 oz minimum) from both sides and evaluate.
    a) If the coffee is too weak – Decrease the Mix Ratio slightly.
    b) If the coffee is too strong – Increase the Mix Ratio slightly.

  7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until the desired taste profile is achieved

Note: Bunn does not recommend adjusting the Mix Ratio more than 20% from the recommended ratio. Contact your product supplier or service agent, if more than a 20 % adjustment is indicated, as there may be an error with the set up of the dispenser.

FlavorGard™ Feature

FlavorGard™ is a patented feed back control loop that monitors the mixed product and adjusts the concentrate delivery rate to maintain a consistent mix profile, i.e. Flavor Profile. The system consists of a conductance probe mounted in the final stages of the mixing chamber, a metering pump with RPM sensor and a digital controller. Once you have completed the installation of the dispenser, entered the desired mix ratio for your concentrate, dispensed several cups of the mixed product, and are satisfied with the Flavor and Strength being delivered, simply enable FlavorGard™, (refer to FlavorGard™ in Programming the Dispenser).
The dispenser will automatically calibrate the system to all the factors that make up your particular mix profile, (e.g. water source, filtration system, Brand of concentrate and mix ratio selected, etc.).
NOTE: It is very important that you have dispensed enough product to insure that the dispenser is fully functional and you are satisfied with the Flavor Profile of the mix product before enabling FlavorGard™.
Once FlavorGard™ is enabled, the dispenser will continuously monitor the mix product as it is being dispensed and adjust the metering pump speed to maintain a consistent mixed product, thus eliminating factors such as (settling of the concentrate, tube wear, viscosity changes, liming, etc.).
The system is designed to work with in the range of variations that can be caused by these factors. The factory preset range is (+/- 10 %) and is adjustable to a Max of (+/- 15%). This insures that the FlavorGard™ system is not responding to factors that cannot be corrected by minor adjustments to the speed of the metering pump, (e.g. kinked hoses, low water pressure, severely worn tubes, empty BIB’s, etc).
NOTE: Changes to Concentrate Ratios or Dispenser Flow Rates will automatically disable FlavorGard™.
You will need to re-enable FlavorGard™, once you are satisfied with the new Flavor Profile.

Rinse Alarm Feature

Periodic rinsing of the mix chambers and dispense tips is essential for proper maintenance and optimum performance of the dispenser. The automated Rinse Alarm feature has three levels of operation, Disabled, Warning Only and Warning with Brew Lockout, see chart for details.

Alarm Level Selected
Disabled
Warning Only

  5. Open the cabinet door and select Normal on the Function Selector switch – close the door.

BUNN LCR-2A Coffee Refrigerated Dispenser - parts10

BIB Empty Lockout Feature

The dispenser can be set to not dispense product when the concentrate BIB is empty. To enable this feature, first calibrate the Empty BIB Threshold (refer to Field Calibrating the Empty BIB Warning). Then enable the BIB Empty Lockout feature (refer to the BIB Empty Lockout menu in Programming the Dispenser). The dispenser will now Lockout dispensing and flash the Right or Left “REFILL LED” corresponding to the empty BIB. Once the BIB has been replaced, PRIME the concentrate line (refer to Priming the Concentrate Lines) and then dispense mixed product until the “REFILL LED” goes out. NOTE: If the dispenser fails to clear the BIB Empty Lockout, repeat the Priming operation a second time to insure the concentrate is flowing properly.

Brew Temperature Lockout Feature

The dispenser can be set to not dispense product if the hot water is not up to the preset READY temperature. To enable this feature set the READY temperature to the minimum allowable dispense temperature. Then enable the Brew Lockout feature, refer to READY TEMP and BREW LOCKOUT, in Programming the Dispenser.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

Bunn-O-Matic ® Corporation recommends that preventive maintenance be performed at regular intervals. Maintenance should be performed by a qualified service technician. For Technical Service, contact Bunn-O-Matic  Corporation at 1-800-286-6070.
NOTE : Replacement parts or service caused by failure to perform required maintenance is not covered by warranty.
Replace pump hoses every 6-Months or as needed.

REPLACING THE PUMP TUBING

The pumps and tubing used in the dispenser are designed to give maximum performance and long life. However, the tubes are a wear item and must be replaced periodically. How long the tubes last is dependent on usage and properties of the concentrate. Excessive wear will reduce the output of the pumps resulting in a weak mixed beverage. Bunn-O-Matic recommends replacing the Pump Tubing a minimum of once every 6 months or sooner if warranted.
Refer to the Tube Replacement Instruction on the Cabinet door for details.

  1. Rinse the pump tubing with warm tap water (Refer to steps 1 – 5 of the Weekly Sanitizing instructions) prior to removing the tubes to avoid concentrate spills.
  2. Loosen the thumbscrew securing the tubing retainer plate to the pump housing. Set it and the retainer plate aside.
  3. Depress the tension screw and remove it from the notch in the pump housing, releasing the spring tension on the pump band.
  4. Open the compression band and gently pull the pump tube from around the pump’s rotor.
  5. Inspect the pump bands for signs of wear. Replace if necessary.
  6. Apply lubricant (BUNN-O-MATIC part number M2531.0001) to the new pump tubing’s rotor side.
  7. Insert the tube onto the mix chamber port, then wrap the new tubing around the pump rotor, making sure that the elbow and clamps end up on the bottom side of the pump housing.
  8. Depress the tension screw and insert it in the notch in the pump body, reapplying spring tension on the pump band.
  9. Replace the tubing retainer plate and tighten the thumbscrew.
  10. Repeat steps 1 through 9 for the other pump.

Troubleshooting

A troubleshooting guide is provided to suggest probable causes and remedies for the most likely problems encountered. If the problem remains after exhausting the troubleshooting steps, contact the Bunn-O-Matic Technical Service Department.

  • Only qualified service personnel should perform inspection, testing, and repair of electrical equipment.

  • Shorting the terminals or the application of external voltages to electronic components may result in component or circuit board failure.

  • Intermittent operation of electronic circuit boards is unlikely. board failure will normally be permanent. If an intermittent condition is encountered, the cause will likely be a switch contact or a loose wire connection at a terminal or crimp.

  • Solenoid removal requires interrupting the water supply to the valve. Damage may result if solenoids are energized for more than ten minutes without a supply of water.

  • The use of two wrenches is recommended whenever plumbing fittings are tightened or loosened. This will help avoid twists and kinks in the tubing.

  • Make certain that all plumbing connections are sealed and all electrical connections are tight and isolated.

  • This dispenser is heated at all times. Keep away from combustibles.
    WARNING:

  • Exercise extreme caution when servicing electrical equipment.

  • Disconnect the brewer from the power source when servicing, except when electrical tests are specified. The red “Power LED” on the door indicates that the unit is connected to AC Power.

  • Follow recommended service procedures.

  • Replace all protective shields or safety notices.

Field Calibration of the Concentrate Pumps / Dispenser Flow Rates

The factory set Default Values for the Pump & Dispenser Flow Rates are very accurate and typically do not need to be field calibrated. However, if the mix ratio accuracy is ever in question, this procedure can be used to recalibrate the unit in the field.
Equipment Required:
50 to 100 ml graduated cylinder, with 1 ml graduations.
64 Oz (2000 ml) graduated container.
Remove the lower splash guard assembly to access prior to starting this procedure NOTE: You can calibrate either the Concentrate Pump or the Dispenser Flow Rate independently. Simply scroll through the menu screen to the desired section and perform only those steps.

Calibrating the Left Side Dispenser
Concentrate Pump Calibration

  1. Select PRIME on the Function Selector Switch. (refer to Priming the Concentrate Lines).

  2. Place a container under the Left Dispense Tip and prime the concentrate lines until a steady stream of concentrate comes out the tip (approximately 10 seconds).

  3. Stop the Priming and allow the tip to stop dripping. Discard the concentrate collected.

  4. Select NORMAL on the Function Selector Switch.

  5. Locate the programming module and use the Arrow Down key to scroll through LCD screens until CAL LEFT SIDE appears and press the YES button.

  6. The CAL LEFT PUMP menu screen will be displayed. Place a 50 ml graduated cylinder under Left Dispense Tip and activate the Left dispenser momentarily. The dispenser will run the Left Concentrate Pump for 20 seconds and then shut OFF automatically.

  7. Keep the graduated cylinder under dispense tip until all the concentrate has dripped out.

  8. Measure the volume of concentrate collected in the graduated cylinder.
    Acceptable ranges for the volume collected Tubing Size
    3/16” tubing
    1/8” tubing| Volume Collected
    40 – 47 ml.
    16 – 22 ml
    ---|---

  9. If the amount collected is not within the acceptable range, empty the graduated cylinder and repeat STEPS 6 – 8.

  10. If the amount collected is still not within range, replace the pump tubing with a new Tube Kit, (refer to the Tube Replacement Instructions).

  11. When satisfied with the volume of concentrate collected, press the Down Arrow Key

  12. The CAL LF PUMP VOL menu screen will be displayed. Use the (-) / (+) keys to adjust number displayed to the amount measured in STEP 8.
    Dispenser Flow Rate Calibration

  13. Press Down Arrow Key to display the CAL LF WTR FLO menu screen.

  14. Place a 64 Oz (2000 ml) graduated container under Left Dispense Tip and Pull the Left Dispense Handle
    momentarily. The dispenser will dispense water for 20 seconds and then shut OFF automatically.

  15. Keep the graduated container under dispense tip until all the water stops dripping.

  16. Measure the volume of water collected in the graduated container.
    Acceptable ranges for the volume collectedDispenser Flow Rate
    1.8 Oz/sec (53 ml/sec) w/ flow restrictor
    2.5 Oz/sec (74 ml/sec) w/o flow restrictor| Volume Collected
    32 – 38 Oz, (946 – 1124 ml)
    46 – 52 Oz ,(1360 – 1538 ml)
    ---|---

  17. If the amount collected is not within the acceptable range, empty the graduated container and repeat
    STEPS 14 – 16

  18. If the amount collected is still not within range, inspect the dispense valves, tubing and mix chamber for
    lime, kinks or other obstructions.

  19. When satisfied with the volume of concentrate collected, press the Down Arrow Key.

  20. The CAL LF WTR VOL screen will be displayed. Use the (-) / (+) keys to adjust number displayed to the
    amount measured in STEP 16.

  21. Press Down Arrow Key again to exit the CAL LEFT SIDE functions.

Calibrating the Right Side Dispenser
Repeat STEPS 1-21 above for the “CAL RIGHT SIDE” menus.

Field Calibrating the Hot Water Flow Rate

  1. Locate the programming module and use the Arrow Down key to scroll through the LCD screen until “CAL HOT WTR FLO?” appears.
  2. Place a 64 Oz (2000 ml) graduated container under Hot Water Tip and press the hot water switch. The unit will dispense Hot Water for 20 seconds and then shut OFF automatically. Keep the graduated container under the dispense tip until all the water stops dripping.
  3. Measure the volume of water collected in the graduated container. The acceptable range for the volume collected is 32 – 38 Oz. (946 – 1124 ml).
  4. If the amount collected is not within the acceptable range, empty the container and repeat steps 2 & 3.
  5. If the amount collected is still not within range, inspect the hot water valve, tubing and fittings for lime, kinks, or other obstructions.
  6. When satisfied with the volume of concentrate collected, press the Down Arrow Key.
  7. The “CAL HOT WTR VOL” screen will be displayed. Use the (-) / (+) keys to adjust number displayed to the ammount measured in step 3.
  8. Press Down Arrow Key again to exit this function.

Field Calibrating the Empty BIB Warning

The dispenser will automatically turn on the Left or Right “REFILL LED”, see Operating Controls and Interface, when the corresponding BIB is Empty. The Refill message is triggered when the FlavorGard sensor reading drops below the minimum setting. The factory set minimum is 500 and should be correct for most locations.
However, in some areas the hardness of the local water supply may effect this reading. If the Refill message doesn’t come on when the BIB is empty or the message comes on too early and there is still concentrate left in the BIB, use the following procedure to find the correct Empty BIB threshold.

Calibrating The Empty BIB Threshold

  1. Remove the lower splash guard assembly to access the digital programming module with LCD display.
  2. Open the cabinet door and set the Function Switch to the “Rinse” position. Close the door.
  3. Place a large container under the Left dispenser tip, then activate and hold the left dispenser.
  4. Dispense long enough to rinse all the concentrate out of the mix chamber and for the Conductance reading to stabilize and stop dropping.
  5. Record the nominal Conductance value displayed. (NOTE: It is typical for this value fluctuate (+/- 25) points about the nominal value}. This is the conductance reading of the water in your area.
  6. Repeat steps 3, 4 & 5 for the Right dispenser.
  7. Add 100 points to the larger of the Left or Right side Conductance value. This is the new Empty BIB threshold value for your dispenser.
  8. Enter this new value into the Empty BIB Alarm threshold, see Programming the Dispenser.
