7.
Primary pressure regulator -
Lowers the CO
2
gas
pressure, to 100 psi (689.48 KPa), so the CO
2
gas
will be at the proper pressure to enter the carbonator
regulator.
8.
Lowered outgoing pressure -
Set for 75 psi (517.1
KPa). Gauge indicates lowered outgoing pressure
from the CO
2
cylinder after being routed through the
primary pressure regulator at 100 psi (689.4 KPa).
9.
Secondary pressure regulator -
Lowers the CO
2
gas pressure before the CO
2
gas flows to the syrup
pump. CO
2
pressure activates the syrup pump.
10.
Syrup pump -
Draws syrup out of the bag-in-box
syrup package. Syrup flows through the syrup lines
to the dispenser for chilling, then dispensing. There
is a syrup pump for each bag-in-box syrup system.
11.
Bag-In-Box syrup cartons -
Box which contains a
plastic bag, filled with syrup.
FIGAL SYSTEM
Figal refers to the stainless steel tanks of pre-mix
beverage or post-mix syrup. The term “Figal” is an
abbreviated word. Originally Figal was short for “five
gallons”. Today, the term usually refers to any stainless
steel tank system used in soft drink beverage supply.
The CO
2
to push the beverage from the Figal tank is
sourced from a small CO
2
tank.
FIGAL TANKS
The stainless steel Figal beverage tanks are easy to
store and connect. There are several items to remember
when using the Figal tanks:
•
Use a gas connector for the inlet fitting of the tank.
•
Use a syrup connector for the outlet fitting of the
tank.
•
If more than one Figal tank is connected in series,
when changing tanks, remove the tank closest to the
original gas inlet while adding the new tank to the
connector closest to the syrup outlet.
Most Figal tanks have a self-closing valve on the tank as
well as the gas and syrup connectors. This allows the
operator of the system to change tanks without having to
shut down the entire system. With this type of connector,
push down on the connector while pulling up on the snap
ring around the opening of the connector. Then simply
pull the connector off the tank.
RACKING
Regardless if you are working on a B-I-B or Figal
system, a place will be designated for placement of the
product. A rack (or shelf) system affords systematic
placement and complete usage of the beverage paid for.
The B-I-B rack allows the boxes to lay properly for syrup
dispersal. Please check with your B-I-B syrup supplier.
Some boxes must be slightly tilted down, while others
may be in virtually any position. The Figal tank rack
keeps the newer and full tanks organized at one end of
the beverage line with the partial tanks at the other.
B-I-B
The Bag-In-Box system refers to a plastic disposable
bag. The B-I-B normally contains 5 gallons of syrup,
however some locations offer 2-1/2 gallon B-I-B units.
This plastic bag is then held inside a cardboard or other
container. B-I-B systems are for post-mix applications
only.
PUMPS
The syrup in a B-I-B system is delivered to the beverage
system through gas operated pumps. These pumps
extract the syrup out of the bags, forcing the syrup
throughout the system.
AUTO BAG SELECTORS
These are used on higher volume B-I-B systems where two
or more bags of the same product are connected to one
pump and one system. An auto bag selector is essentially a
valve that automatically changes from one bag (or series of
bags) to another bag (or series of bags) of syrup as the bags
empty, allowing a constant flow of product.
