The glycol bath capacity is 1 gallon (US). Glycol supplied by Glastender, Inc. may be diluted to a ratio of (1) part
glycol to (2) parts water for freeze protection down to 0ºF (-18ºC) or a ratio of (1) part glycol and (3) parts water
for freeze protection down to 10ºF (-12ºC). These mix ratios are recommended, since the refrigeration system is not
capable of lowering the temperature of the glycol bath below 15ºF (-9.4ºC)
For glycol not supplied by Glastender, Inc. please consult the glycol manufacturer’s recommended mixing ratio for
the desired operating temperature.
NOTE: Do not place full strength glycol (undiluted) in the bath, as it will reduce the efficiency of the refrig-
eration system and may result in damage to the recirculation pump due to increased viscosity of cold
glycol.
NOTE: Select and use only a propylene glycol product that meets FDA (Food and Drug Administration) regu-
lations as a food grade product. Any substitution of food grade glycol with automotive anti-freeze or
other products will expose people to hazardous chemicals.
Fill the bath with glycol mixture by removing the black plug in the top of the glycol back and placing a funnel in the
fill hole. Pour in the glycol mixture until the level is 2-1/2" from the top.

• Connect unit to appropriate electrical circuit. For more information refer to Step 3, Electrical Hook Up.
• Model BLC-1/3-E has one power switch that operates the compressor unit and recirculating pump.
• Models BLC-1/3, BLC-1/3-2, BLC-1/2, BLC-1/2-2, BLC-3/4, and BLC-3/4-2 have a condensing unit power switch.
There are separate power switches to operate the recirculating pumps. The condensing unit power switch will not
operate the compressor unless a pump switch is in the on position.
• Check all glycol circuit line connections for leaks.
• As you are priming the BLC-1/3, BLC-1/2, or BLC-3/4 lines, continue to add the glycol mixture to keep the bath
level 2-1/2" from the top.

It is a good practice to operate the glycol recirculation system for sixty (60) minutes before running beer through to the
remote dispensing station(s). This enables the glycol circuit to be checked for leaks. Also, recirculating cold glycol
through the lines enables the temperature inside the trunk line to stabilize before beer is introduced.
Once the refrigeration unit and the glycol recirculating pump have operated for sixty (60) minutes or more, the beer
product can be connected and drawn through the trunk line.
• Check the system for leaks.
• Thoroughly insulate all line joints in the trunk line and dispensing station(s).
It is recommended that the glycol lines be insulated inside the walk-in cooler to prevent excessive ice build up. Insulate
the glycol lines all the way up to the sealed chaseway as it exits the walk-in cooler.
