BRIXING PF-2 VALVE
1. The water and syrup flows are individually
adjusted by their respective metering pin located
under the valve.
2. One recommended method utilizes a ratio brix
cup, see illustration. The brix cup is divided into
two sections. The larger section is for water and
the smaller section is for syrup. Most products are
brixed at a 5 to 1 ratio or 5 parts water and one
part syrup. While the brix cup is held in the right
hand with the smaller section facing towards your
left hand you can see the “5 TO 1” setting line and
“SYRUP 1” setting line.
3. When facing the PF-2, the water metering pin
will be to the extreme right; syrup #1 will be nearly
centered and forward. Syrup #2 will be to the
extreme left. To decrease syrup or water flow,
turn metering pin adjustment screw clockwise. To
increase syrup or water flow, turn metering pin
adjustment screw counterclockwise.
4. The ultimate goal is to achieve a proper ratio of
water vs. syrup. This ratio can and will vary with
differing products but in most cases it is a 5 TO 1
ratio.
5. Make sure system is in an operating condition,
i.e., high pressure regulators are set, water and
power are on and refrigeration is in a ready to go
mode.
6. Adjust water flow to 6 ounces in 5 seconds.
This is accomplished by turning water adjustment
clockwise to decrease or counterclockwise to
increase flow. The water flow need only be
adjusted once to satisfy both flavors.
7. Remove nozzle by twisting while pulling down.
Insert syrup separator through nozzle and connect
to syrup outlet for #1 flavor. Push nozzle back into
operating position.
8. Actuate valve until syrup separator is full of
syrup.
9. Position brix cup under the valve so syrup will
flow into the small section of the brix cup and
water will flow into the large section of the brix
cup.
10. Actuate valve allowing the water to flow into
larger section of cup and syrup into smaller
section. The water flow has already been set at 6
ounces in 5 seconds so the only adjustment to do
will be the syrup. For a proper brix of a 5 TO 1
ratio the syrup will fill to line #1 and water will fill to
the line that has a 5 TO 1 marking. Pour water
until it reaches the 5 TO 1 marking and stop. See
where the syrup level stops, adjust syrup
accordingly.
11. Repeat steps 7 through 10 to brix syrup #2.
