Tapping the Beer Keg – Installing Keg Tap
(Single-Valve Type Barrel)
Your beer dispenser comes with American Sankey Tap. This
type is the most widely used in the United States. Before
purchasing a keg, check with your beer distributor to make
sure that supplied Sankey Tap can be used.
Note:
For European draft beer, European Sankey Tap is
required. Please contact Draught Technologies by
visiting www.draughttech.com or call
(860) 677-7312.
Follow the steps below to tap the keg of beer.
1. Make sure the pull handle of the Sankey Tap is in the
closed (up) position before installing it on the beer keg.
(see fig.1) Insert the keg coupler into the locking neck of
the beer keg and turn clockwise 1/4-turn to lock it into
position. (see fig. 2)
2. IMPORTANT: You must insert the black rubber washer
into the beer line coupling nut before screwing the nut
onto the keg tap coupling head. First remove the black
protective shipping cap from the coupling head. Do not
remove the plastic insert from the coupling head. Insert
the black washer inside of the coupling nut. Firmly
hand-tighten the coupling nut onto the coupling head.
(see fig. 3)
3. Attach the open end of the red tube to the hose barb
connection on the Sankey Tap. Next, secure the tube by
using the remaining self-locking plastic snap-on clamp
to ensure that there are no leaks. Secure the clamp
tightly with pliers. (see fig. 3)
