Valve Description
The dispensing valve is located behind the
touch panel and is made up of five blocks,
each containing two solenoids, two flow con-
trols, and two shutoffs. The blocks are perma-
nently manifolded together to supply a single
outlet nozzle. (The top view is depicted.)
Beverage Dispensing
The valve opens to dispense the desired syrup
and water in the desired portions into the cup.
If foaming is an issue, the service agent can
program a top-off. The initial portion will be
dispensed. After a delay, the balance of the
drink will be dispensed.
