BEVERAGE VALVES
Post-mix beverage valves are designed to precisely meter the
flow of both water and syrup to obtain the proper mixing ratio.
The syrup and soda water components of the post-mix
beverage are mixed as they leave the beverage valve.
CEVi
The CEV-30i is a 5 or 6-valve unit and the CEV-40i is an 8-
valve unit, both are capable of dispensing carbonated and
non-carbonated drinks. On each of these units valves 1
through 5 may be changed to carbonated or non-carbonated
water by using the flex manifold, except on 5 valve units which
use a 4 port manifold. The remaining valve(s) will dispense
carbonated water only.
Please refer to the Recommended Plumbing section for
proper use of the flex manifold.
A CO
2
cylinder delivers carbon dioxide (CO
2
) gas through an
adjustable CO
2
regulator to the syrup BIB pump and also to
an internal carbonator. Plain water also enters the internal
carbonator tank, and is carbonated by the regulated CO
2
gas
pressure. When a dispensing valve is opened, CO
2
pressure
exerted within the syrup BIB pump propels syrup from the
BIB, through the CEV Unit beverage coils, and into the
dispensing valve. Carbonated water is forced from the
carbonator tank by CO
2
pressure which pushes cold
carbonated water into the dispensing valve resulting in a
carbonated drink being dispensed. A non-carbonated drink is
dispensed in the same manner as a carbonated drink with the
exception that plain water is substituted for carbonated.
The carbonator is replenished when the carbonated water
level inside the tank drops, which in turn automatically starts
the carbonator water pump. When the water level inside the
tank has been replenished, carbonator water pump will stop.

A CO
2
cylinder delivers carbon dioxide (CO
2
) gas through
adjustable CO
2
regulators to the syrup BIB pump and also to
an external carbonator. Plain water also enters the remote
carbonator tank, and is carbonated by the regulated CO
2
gas
pressure. When a dispensing valve is opened, CO
2
pressure
exerted within the syrup BIB pump propels syrup from the
BIB, through the CEV beverage coils, and into the dispensing
valve. Carbonated water is forced from the carbonator tank by
CO
2
pressure which pushes carbonated water through the
CEV cooling coils, and into the dispensing valve. Syrup and
carbonated water meet simultaneously and mix at the nozzle
of the dispensing valve resulting in a carbonated drink being
dispensed. A non-carbonated drink is dispensed in the same
manner as a carbonated drink with the exception that plain
water is substituted for carbonated.
The carbonator is replenished when the carbonated water
level inside the tank drops, which in turn automatically starts
the carbonator water pump. When the water level inside the
tank has been replenished, carbonator water pump will stop.
