Carbon Dioxide Warning (CO2 )

• Carbon Dioxide (CO2 ) is a colorless, noncombustible gas with a light pungent odor. High percentages of CO2 may displace oxygen in the blood.
• Prolonged exposure to CO2 can be harmful. Personnel exposed to high concentrations of CO2 gas will experience tremors which are followed by a loss of consciousness and suffocation.
• If a CO2 gas leak is suspected, immediately ventilate the contaminated area before attempting to repair the leak.
• Strict attention must be observed in the prevention of CO2 gas leaks in the entire CO2 and soft drink system.

Water Notice
Provide an adequate potable water supply. Water pipe connections and fixtures directly connected to a potable water supply must be sized, installed, and maintained according to federal, state, and local laws. The water supply to the carbonator must be at least a 3/8 inches (9.525 mm) pipe with a minimum of 25 psi (0.172 MPa) line pressure, but not exceeding a maximum of 50 psi (0.345 MPa). Water pressure exceeding 50 psi (0.345 MPa) must be reduced to 50 psi (0.345 MPa) with pressure regulator. The water supply to non-carb drinks must be a minimum of 55 psi (0.379 MPa), using a water booster if needed. Use a filter in the water line to avoid equipment damage and beverage off-taste. Check the water filter periodically, as required by local conditions. The water supply must be protected by means of an air gap, a backflow prevention device or another  pproved  method to comply with NSF standards. A leaking inlet water check valve will allow carbonated water to flow back through the pump when it is shut off and contaminate the water supply. Ensure the backflow prevention device complies with ASSE and local standards. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure compliance.
