Zip ChillTap - Installation & Operating Instructions - CT1/140 - June 2013 v1.01
Minimum supply pressure must be 0.07 MPa (0.7 bar). For best results we recommend a minimum static pressure of 0.02
MPa (2 bar).
If the pressure exceeds 7 bar, you should also supply and install a 0.35 MPa (3.5 bar) pressure-limiting valve.
(See Spare Parts & Accessories page 3)
• Fit the JG Nut + Straight Connector Assembly to the isolating valve.
• With 1/4” white tubing, connect the Straight Connector Assembly to the inlet of the filter head (flow direction is
marked on the filter head). From the outlet of the filter head connect the tube to the JG fitting marked INLET on the
top right rear of the chiller unit, cut excess off to ensure a neat job.
• Now measure and cut the tube from the tap to the JG fitting marked OUTLET on the top left rear of the chiller.
• Make sure all connections to John Guest fittings are pushed in past the o-ring to full depth, at least 15 - 16mm.
Tap connection is now complete.
Take care, when bending rigid plastic tubing, to prevent it from kinking or crushing around a bend. As it is plastic tubing
containing water under mains pressure, be careful not to nick, scratch or damage it during installation.
Ensure there is adequate ventilation available through the cupboard. If there is inadequate ventilation, and the cupboard
temperature rises to above 40°C, the chiller may become damaged and malfunction which will void the product
warranty. The air temperature should be no more than 35°C.
There must be a minimum 168cm² of cupboard cross-flow ventilation. Suitable holes or vents will need to be cut into the
cupboard and door.
For safe operation, thoroughly flush the water through after non-use periods longer than 12 hours.
Filter cartridges should be replaced at least every 6-12 months, or sooner if you notice:
A. A persistent reduction in water pressure from the product, or;
B. An unpleasant taste or odour in the water.
Not changing the cartridges when required may cause the water to become biologically unsafe.

NOTE:
We recommend you supply and
install an isolating valve in the supply line
before the connection to the product as
an independent means of isolating the
water in order to carry out maintenance or
servicing.
