Example:
8.5 psi (restriction factor) ÷ 0.25 psi = 34.0 in (of
required restrictor line)
B. This example (refer to the figures above,
Example B) reflects an increased vertical lift
factor of 24 ft (19 ft of lift + 5 ft of lift=24 ft). It
requires a lift/drop restriction of 12 psi (24 x
0.5/ft lift=12 psi).
Example:
14.5 psi (applied keg pressure) - 15.5 psi (total
line restriction) = -1.0 psi (restriction factor)
Since the restriction factor in this example is less
than 6.0 psi, a 24" fixed restrictor length will be
required.
The Adjusted Applied Keg Pressure (the pressure
the secondary regulator will be adjusted to) can
now be determined by taking the Total Line
Restriction and adding 8 psi.
Example:
3.5 psi (run restriction) + 12.0 psi (lift/drop
restriction) = 15.5 psi (total line restriction)
15.5 psi (total line restriction) + 8.0 psi = 23.5 psi
(adjusted keg pressure)
STARTING UP THE SYSTEM
Before Starting Up the System
Each of the steps below should be done 24 hours prior
to the tapping or dispensing of any beer.
1. Place all kegs in a walk-in cooler at 36°F to 38°F
and allow them to temper properly.
2. Turn ON the Beermaster Glycol Chiller circulating
glycol pump(s).
Volumes (liquid oz per linear ft)
3/16" ID @ ft = 0.18
1/4" ID @ ft = 0.33
5/16" ID @ ft = 0.51
3/8" ID @ ft = 0.73
1/2" ID @ ft = 1.31
