Read These Warnings First Note: Always ensure the tubes are shortened so that any excess is removed and their route is the most direct line between the tap assembly and the HydroTap unit. Do not allow the tubes to sag or droop so water is trapped within the hoses. Always maintain a constant fall Positioning of the tap assembly must be within the following parameters: The height between the base of the Hydrotap unit and the base of the Tap assembly cannot be greater than 900mm.
Read These Warnings continued Altitude The Zip HydroTap is equipped with a self-calibrating program which caters for altitude adjustment. Filter Control The Zip HydroTap filter control is preset to 6000 litres to provide trouble-free flow and operation in most installations. Local water quality conditions may require an alteration to this capacity. In areas where the water has a high concentration of sediment, the preset litre capacity may be shortened to avoid poor flow, taste or odour situations.
Specifications BCH 160 125 Model Cups of Glasses Boiling of Chilled Water Water per Hour per Hour These Installation Instructions cover the 3-in-1 and 4-in-1HydroTap range. Use the chart on the left to identify the model you are using: Commercial Models: BCH = Boiling / Chilled and Hot / Cold. Standard Tap (4-in-1) BCHT = Boiling / Chilled and Hot / Cold. Tall Mixer Tap (4-in-1) BCHS = Boiling / Chilled and Hot / Cold. Square Mixer Tap (4-in-1) BH F = Boiling and Hot / Cold.
• A potable mains cold water supply with a minimum working pressure of 2 bar dynamic and a maximum working pressure of 7 bar connected via an isolation valve. If pressure is likely to exceed 7 bar, install a 3.5 bar Pressure Limiting Valve. • The fitting of an air flow vent cut into the top half of the cupboard door concealing the HydroTap requiring a cut size of approximately 100mm circular, to provide adequate warm air displacement.
Installation Procedure continued 4-in-1 Mixer assembly White or non marked hose Step B - Installing the (Hot / Cold) Mixer tap outlet (see P20 options) The approved vented tapware, as supplied must be used. It is advisable to fit the tap to the sink before installing the undersink unit. Do not dismantle the assembled tap body during installation. Mixer taps are factory tested and sealed to provide optimum performance.
Installation Procedure continued Step D- Connecting the (Boiling / Chilled) HydroTap outlet Vent line Hot Outlet Chilled Outlet Note: Included in the installation pack are adhesive backed silicon buffers. If air vents are not installed in the cupboards housing the HydroTap, the buffers must be placed on the inside edge of the cupboard door to create a slight gap ensuring a minimum airflow. Failure to do this may cause the HydroTap to overheat and operate inefficiently.
