Installation Differences When Replacing The Advantage Series
The following table shows critical differences between The Advantage Series and Encore
Series that will affect installation.
Item Description
Side
identification In order to emphasize plumbing differences between The Encore Series and The Advantage Series
we have changed nomenclature. We no longer refer to the sides as A and B as with The Advantage
Series. The serial plate front of The Encore Series (manufactured on or before December, 2002) is
now Side 1 and the back is Side 2. Units manufactured after December, 2002 have the serial plate
(label) mounted on the main door behind the CIM door on side 1. Side 1 is the primary service
access side for electronics.
Importantly, Side 1 on an Encore unit replacing an existing
Advantage Series unit does not always replace The Advantage Series A Side. In most cases:
• Advantage A Side and Encore Side 1 are reversed for Encore Single Hose and Blender Units.
• Advantage A Side and Encore Side 1 are the same for Multi Hose units.
Also the Encore Series uses letters (W, X, Y and Z) to differentiate the product pipes. The
Advantage Series typically labels low and high or A, B, and so on.
Piping layout Do not assume piping connections for the Encore based upon The Advantage Series or
other unit piping.
Dispensers
: Encore product plumbing is in some cases reversed in order from The Advantage
Series, is spaced somewhat different and has other differences. See one of or both of the following:
• “Dispenser MPD Piping to Hose Fitting Configurations” on page 19
• “Encore Dispenser Blender Piping to Hose Fitting Layout” on page 25
Pumps: Encore product inlet and electrical connection locations on self-contained pumps are
different from The Advantage Series (see “Encore Foundation Diagrams: 3 of 6 (300/500 Pumps)”
on page 57 ). For pump product inlet to hose configurations, see one of or both of the following:
• “Pump (MPD) Piping to Hose Fitting Configurations” on page 23
• “Encore Pump Blender Piping to Hose Fitting Configurations” on page 27 .
Piping
installation Dispensers : The Encore is provided with a lower piping brace. The installer must secure plumbing
to the lower brace per the installation document or improper operation of the shear valves may
result if a unit is knocked over. Flexible pipe cannot be used within the dispenser, but may be used
below the dispenser. Refer to MDE-3802 Encore and Eclipse Site Preparation Manual. The Encore
inlet plumbing only extends partially into the hydraulics cabinet. This allows much greater
installation adaptability by using rigid piping when retrofitting to competitive equipment pit boxes
and plumbing layouts. In addition to side- to-side inlet adjustment capability, the lower piping brace
can be mounted forward or rearward for additional adaptation.
Pumps : Pumping units in self-contained pumps are shipped without inlet fittings. At installation, the
protective closure in the pumping unit inlet must be removed and replaced with the proper inlet
fittings. Refer to MDE-3802 Encore and Eclipse Site Preparation Manual.
Frame width There is only one frame width for the Encore Series. The Advantage Series units come in wide and
narrow frame types. The Encore Series width is intermediate between the wide and narrow frame
width of The Advantage Series. However, it is recommended to use a pit box designed or adaptor
for the Encore for new stations or major renovations. See one of the following:
• “Encore Foundation Diagrams: 1 of 6 (300/500 Dispensers)” on page 55
• “Encore Foundation Diagrams: 3 of 6 (300/500 Pumps)” on page 57
Also refer to MDE-4166 The Advantage Series Unit to Encore Island Adaptor Kit M03064K001
Installation Manual.
Junction box Dispensers: The Encore Series units may ship with or without a junction box or field conduit.
Conduit and junction box not part of order is provided by installer. This allows more versatility for
electrical conduit routing. As the installer may install the junction box towards the front or rear of the
unit, it is not recommended to use the location of the junction box openings as an indication of front
or rear of the unit. Always use the serial plate to identify Side 1.
Pumps: The Encore Series Pumps have a factory installed junction box, located on Side 1, but the
electrical power connection is a 1” NPT conduit inlet located on Side 2. All electrical power wiring to
the unit must enter the conduit on Side 2 and feed to the junction box. Ethernet and intercom
connections are to enter the unit on Side 2. See
“Encore Foundation Diagrams: 3 of 6 (300/500
Pumps)” on page 57 .
• Junction boxes, conduit and fittings must conform to all requirements listed and referenced in
this manual.
• For new installations, with proper pull of additional wire, it is possible for Encore to eliminate a
junction box. The Advantage Series always has a junction box.
