CONTROL PANEL DISPLAY MESSAGES ‘‘FILL 1’’ and ‘‘FILL 2’’ Fault Messages. ‘‘FILL 1’’ and ‘‘FILL 2’’ fault messages will appear on the message display only after the “SYRUP PRIME” switches have been pressed and the syrup systems sold-out floats have been filled with product. ‘‘FILL 1’’ and ‘‘FILL 2’’ fault messages will continue to be displayed until the “BLEND ON/OFF” switches have been pressed to fill the product blender tanks with product. ‘‘ERROR 1’’ and ‘‘ERROR 2’’ Fault Messages.
DEFROST SYSTEMS NOTE: The automatic defrost, “SLEEP” (SLEEP TIME), and “WAKE UP” (WAKE UP TIME) should be programmed into the Unit electronics by a qualified Service Person. UNITS EQUIPPED WITH HOT-GAS DEFROST SYSTEMS The Unit is equipped with both manual and automatic hot-gas defrost systems. The automatic defrost system may be programmed into the Unit to occur up to nine different times a day with a minimum of two hours between defrost time settings or the system may be completely turned off.
Automatic Electric Defrost System. The automatic electric defrost system may be programmed into the Unit to occur up to nine different times a day with a minimum of two hours between defrost settings. At start of each automatic electric defrost cycle, the refrigeration compressor will operate for a short time. No.1 freeze cylinder only will go into defrost cycle and defrost for approximately 15-minutes, then the Unit will return to normal operation. This ends the automatic defrost cycle of No.
DISPENSED PRODUCT CONDITIONS ‘‘OVERRUN’’, AS APPLIED TO FROZEN CARBONATED BEVERAGES Overrun Defined. Overrun is product expansion that takes place in the frozen carbonated drink. It is caused primarily by CO2 gas breakout and secondary by freezing. Low Dispensing Volume Affects Overrun. When the Unit sits idle for a period of time and no drinks are dispensed, CO2 gas in the system takes a ‘‘set’’.
Freezing Affects Overrun. Freezing causes approximately a 10 percent expansion in a dispensed frozen carbonated drink. The degree of freezing is limited because the finished drink is intended to be sipped through a straw. This is not possible if the product is too ‘‘solid’’. OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS The product viscosity (product consistency) can be varied by adjustment and secondary CO2 regulator setting from a high overrun light drink to a wet heavy drink.
SECONDARY CO2 REGULATORS The secondary CO2 regulators, located inside the Unit, control CO2 pressure to the Unit carbonator(s) and the product blender tanks. If adjustment of these CO2 regulators should become necessary, call a qualified Service Person to make the adjustments. ADJUSTING BRIX (WATER-TO-SYRUP “RATIO”) OF DISPENSED PRODUCT BRIX is the Water-to-Syrup “Ratio” of the dispensed product and should be periodically checked and if necessary, be adjusted by a qualified Service Person.
8. If freeze cylinder is not full of product, repeatedly pull and release the faceplate relief valve to slowly bleed CO2 from the freeze cylinder and allow product to fill the cylinder. Do not relieve freeze cylinder pressure too fast or the product will foam excessively in the cylinder and lose carbonation. BAG–IN–BOX SYSTEM 1. Press applicable ‘‘OFF’’ switch on the control panel to stop the applicable freeze cylinder beater and refrigeration system. 2.
3. Unfasten safety chain and remove empty CO2 cylinder. 4. Position full CO2 cylinder and secure with safety chain. WARNING: To avoid personal injury and/or property damage, always secure CO2 cylinder in an upright position with safety chain to prevent it from falling over. Should the shutoff valve become accidentally broken off, CO2 cylinder can cause serious personal injury. 5. Make sure gasket is in place inside the CO2 regulator coupling nut, then install regulator on CO2 cylinder. 6.
10. Syrup Tank Syrup System. Disconnect syrup tank containing syrup from No. 1 syrup system. Bag-in-Box Syrup System. A. Disconnect No. 1 syrup pump syrup inlet line from bag-in-box containing syrup. B. Cut connector from empty bag-in-box container, then connect connector to No. 1 syrup pump syrup inlet line. NOTE: Sanitizing solution is used in a more concentrated form because it will be diluted approximately four-to-one in the product blender tank.
Bag-in-Box Syrup System. A. Remove end of No. 1 syrup pump syrup inlet line from pail of sanitizing solution. B. Remove empty bag-in-box connector from No. 1 syrup pump syrup inlet line. C. Connect No. 1 syrup pump syrup inlet line to bag-in-box containing syrup. 22. Press SIDE 1 “SYRUP PRIME” switch to fill No. 1 syrup system syrup float switch with syrup. 23. Press SIDE 1 ‘‘BLEND ON/OFF’’ switch to fill No. 1 product blender tank with product.
32. After carbonator water pump cycles off, intermittently pull and release the No. 1 freeze cylinder faceplate relief valve. This bleeds CO2 from the freeze cylinder and allows product to enter and fill the cylinder. 33. Open No. 2 product blender tank product shutoff valve.
TROUBLESHOOTING IMPORTANT: Only qualified personnel should service internal components or electrical wiring. WARNING: If repairs are to be made to a product system, remove quick disconnects from the applicable product tank, then relieve the system pressure before proceeding. If repairs are to be made to the CO2 system, stop dispensing, shut off the CO2 supply, then relieve the system pressure before proceeding.
Trouble ‘‘CO2 OUT’’ FAULT MESSAGE GOES ON DURING OPERATION. Probable Cause Remedy A. CO2 supply turned off or exhausted. A. Open CO2 cylinder shutoff valve or replenish CO2 supply as instructed. B. Primary CO2 regulator set too low. B. Call qualified Service Person to adjust primary CO2 regulator. C. Inoperable CO2 pressure switch. C. Call qualified Service Person. A. Water supply turned off or water pressure inadequate. A. Turn on water supply or check water supply line pressure. B.
Trouble Probable Cause Remedy CARBONATOR WATER PUMP WILL NOT SHUT OFF. A. Binding, damaged, or dirty carbonated water tank balance mechanism. A. Call qualified Service Person.. ERRATIC CARBONATOR WATER PUMP CYCLING. A. Insufficient water supply pressure. ‘‘H2O OUT’’ fault message goes on and off intermittently and water pump cycles on and off during carbonator tank fill cycle. A. Call qualified Service Person. B. Water filter restricted. B. Replace water filter cartridge.
Trouble FROZEN PRODUCT CONSISTENCY VARIES EXCESSIVELY (CONT’D). CYLINDER FREEZE-UP. Probable Cause B. A. B. 312030002 Cylinder freeze-up causing ice formation in center of cylinder and liquid product channels around ice formation. Remedy B. Refer to CYLINDER FREEZE-UP. NOTE: DEFROST AFFECTED FREEZE CYLINDER AS INSTRUCTED. Dispensed product BRIX too A. Call qualified Service Person. low. Viscosity of dispensed product not properly adjusted. 20 B. Call qualified Service Person.
