4. CONVERTING FROM BUILT-IN SYRUP PUMPS TO REMOTE PUMPS OR SYRUP TANKS
4.1 REMOVING EXISTING BUILT-IN SYRUP PUMPS
A. Disconnect the unit from the power supply and remove the bonnet.
B. Loosen the valve cover retaining screws and remove the valve covers.
C. Shut off the water supply to each Valve by turning the water shutoff knob (located on the left
hand side of the valve mounting block) clockwise until it stops (see Figure 6).
D. Prepare three to four (3 to 4) gallons of warm water in a suitable open container.
E. Disconnect the syrup supply lines from the BIB syrup supply, assemble a BIB adapter to the end
of each line, and place the line in the container of warm water.
F. Open each dispensing valve until the water flowing from the valve shows no discoloration due to
syrup.
G. Remove the syrup supply lines from the warm water and open each dispensing valve to purge
the water from the system.
H. Turn off the CO2 supply to the unit and disconnect the CO2 supply line from CO2 inlet fitting on
the built-in pump package.
I. Disconnect the syrup inlet lines from the built-in syrup pumps and remove them from the unit.
J. Disconnect the pump’s syrup outlet lines from the unit’s syrup inlet fittings.
K. Remove 1/8 inch barbed carbonator CO2 check valve, if one is present.
L. Remove the four (4) sheet metal screws that secure the pump assembly to the carbonator deck
and remove the pump assembly from the unit.
M. Remove braided inlet tubes and elbow. It will be necessary to cut the securing Oetiker clamps.
4.2 INSTALLING REMOTE PUMP OR SYRUP TANKS
A. Install new 1/4 inch male flare CO2 carbonator check valve.
B. Connect the CO2 supply line to the carbonator check valve.
C. Connect the syrup outlet line from each remote pump to the appropriate syrup inlet fitting on the
unit using a 1/4 inch Oetiker clamp.
NOTE:
Each 1/4 inch braided syrup tube will be looped from the inlet line to the
remote pumps. Take caution not to bend, crimp, or kink the 1/4 inch tube at the loop. It may be nec-
essary to use a tie wrap.
D. Make all necessary connections on remote pump system or syrup tank.
E. Turn on water (25 to 50 PSIG)(0.172 to 0.345 MPA) and CO2 (70 to 80 PSIG)(0.483 to 0.552
MPA) supply.
F. Open each valve until syrup flow is established and check all connections for leaks.
G. Replace the bonnet and reconnect the unit to the power supply.
H. Open the water supply to each valve and replace the valve covers.
I. Brix the valves if necessary. (Refer to Sections 1.17 and 1.18 of this manual.)
