CHAPTER I
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This chapter gives the description, theory of operation, and design data for the SPACE
CADET REMOTE, (SCR) and related components.
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Space Cadet is a complete self-contained remote cooling/carbonation unit which
when combined with related components, will produce a variety of cooled carbonated and
non-carbonated beverages.
The Space Cadet consists of a condensing unit, a water reservoir, water-cooling coil, a
carbonator tank, (carbonated systems only), an agitator pump, and syrup cooling coil(s).
The Space Cadet is manufactured in two configurations, i.e., (SC-R), SPACE CADET
REMOTE and (RC-SC-R) RECIRCULATING SPACE CADET REMOTE.
For proper function the Space Cadet must have a water supply, and electrical supply and
drainage. Other items that will be required if used in B.I.B., (Bag in Box), or transfer tank,
(FIGAL), installations will be high pressure regulator, Low pressure regulator, connecting
lines, quick couplers, or disconnects and C02.
WARNING: Before shipping or relocating a Space Cadet into a freezing
ambient environment empty plain and carbonated water. Syrup systems
should be flushed, ice bank melted, and water drained from water bath.
A freezing ambient environment will cause existing water in unit to freeze
possibly resulting in damage to pump/motor assembly, syrup coils, water
coil, water bath, etc.
