INSTRUCTION
PRODUCT KEG
Relieve any static pressure in the product keg by lifting the ring on the pressure relief valve. Once drained of pressure, lift the locking mechanism of the tank lid and press downward on the lid to push it inside the tank. Twist the lid sideways and tilt it slightly to remove the lid from the tank. To re- insert and lock the lid, reverse the steps as shown.
CONNECTING KEGS FOR DRINK DISPENSING OR CLEANING
Using the Tap Numbers printed on the top of the Dispensing Tower as a guide, connect the labelled Product Supply (BLACK) and Nitrogen Supply (GREY) lines to the correct product keg by placing them on the keg connectors, lifting connector sleeve upward and firmly pressing downward until the connector locks into place. Product lines are labelled 1-4 from left to right to correspond with faucets on the tower which are also 1-4 left to right.
DISPENSING OF PRODUCT
Each of the 4 product taps can pour both nitrogen-infused and non-infused beverages. This option is selected by pressing the buttons at the top of the Dispensing Tower: ILLUMINATED BUTTON = NITROGEN INFUSION NON-ILLUMINATED BUTTON = NO NITROGEN INFUSION Once the desired nitrogen option has been selected, pull the tap handle to a fully horizontal position to dispense product. It is important that the buttons are left in an illuminated position when the system will be idle for extended periods, such as overnight.
NITROGEN INFUSION ADJUSTMENT
The regulators located on the front of the Nitrogen Control Module allow for independent control of nitrogen infusion for beverages at each tap. The gauges will indicate the current pressure setting for each regulator. Increasing the nitrogen pressure by turning the regulator knob CLOCKWISE will increase the amount of nitrogen infusion in the beverage. Optimal infusion pressures will vary depending on the type of beverage being dispensed, but generally, setting the infusion pressures between 9 and 12 PSI will provide the desired infusion levels. Any changes should be done in small steps as alterations of 1 PSI will have a noticeable effect on product pours. When decreasing pressures, multiple pours are necessary to allow the pressures to stabilize.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Relieve any static pressure in the product kegby lifting the ring on the pressure relief valve. Once drained of pressure, lift the locking mechanism of the tank lid and press down on the lid to push it inside the tank. Twist the lid sideways and tilt it slightly to remove the lid from the tank. STERA- SHEEN®: Mix one, 2-ounce packet of Stera-Sheen® sanitizer powder with 2 gallons /7-1/2 liters of 100°F / 38°C potable water in a clean product tank. Gently swirl water in tank to mix sanitizer. Connect ‘Product 1’ and ‘N1’ ball lock connectors to keg. Ensure all Nitro select switches are not illuminated. Open tap #1 until approximately 64 ounces of sanitizer has dispensed. Leaving the ‘N1’ connector in place, switch the liquid Ball-Lock connector to ‘Product 2’. Open tap #2 until 64 ounces of sanitizer has been dispensed. Repeat this process for taps #3 and #4. Disconnect keg and relieve pressure. Allow sanitizer to remain in the system for 5 minutes. Rinse the keg well and refill with 100° water. Follow the same procedure as the sanitizing process by connecting the ‘Product 1’ and ‘N1’ connectors to keg. Dispense 64 ounces of water from Tap #1 and continue the rinsing process for Taps 2 – 4. Disconnect keg and relieve pressure. Open each tap to relieve pressure from lines. Disassemble each of the 4 product filters. If they are too tight to unscrew by hand, use a tool with a protective barrier to prevent damage to the housing. Remove and rinse the filter membranes and lower housings under warm clean water. Reassemble the filter housings. Unscrew all 4 Tap Nozzles and verify the holes in the Diffusion Plates are clear of debris. If debris is present, wash with sanitizer over a bucket to prevent losing nozzle internals. Reinstall nozzles. Wash and sanitize the Drip Tray. Using a towel moistened with sanitizer, wipe down the tower assembly and refrigerator.
