1. Overview of your Ice Bank Beer System
Ice bank Beer Systems are designed as a high performance / low energy solution to draught
beer.
Your installation has been based on the information provided on the number of dispense points,
site conditions, and keg turnover. This ensures a balanced reticulation system capable of
handling your maximum expected volume of trade.
Along with this manual we have supplied a Cellar Log Book. A maintenance program should be
in place and a log book kept covering cleaning schedule & all other activities relevant to draught
beer. Doing so will result in excellent beer presentation, with absolutely minimum waste. A
hygienic system is a MUST!!
Included at the back of this manual are your:
Installation Checklist
Commissioning Sheet.
Certificate of Compliance.
Outlet Risk Assessment.
Keg Tapping
•
The keg is tapped by connecting the coupler to the keg. The coupler is then engaged.
Beer is distributed to the correct tap.
•
CO2 Beverage Gas is supplied to each keg, as the energy to move the beer from the
keg to the glass while maintaining the correct CO2 percentage in the beer.
Founts
Beer Founts are available in a variety of shapes and sizes. The heat load on each fount
varies according to its size. The riser lines are banded to and insulated with the
recirculation lines to the fount to ensure consistently cold dispense temperature.
Ice bank Chiller
The heart of the system is the Ice bank Chiller, located under the bar. It contains stainless
steel beer coils submerges in an ice bath to chill the beer. A pump recirculates the iced
bath water from the tank up through the font before returning to the tank for re-cooling.
Ice banks are sized in Kg’s of ice that builds on the refrigeration coil – e.g. 15kg, 25kg,
and 35kg.
•
As altering ambient conditions and keg temperatures have a dramatic effect on the
cooling capabilities of the system, we allow extra tolerance when calculating “Heat
Loads”. This assists in offering maximum performance through the most extreme
conditions.
