2.3 INSTRUCTIONS FOR GENERAL USE
Correct operation of the serving beer tank is vital to its safe usage and optimum performance. Please
contact your Paul Mueller Company sales representative if you require additional technical assistance
pertaining to the equipment’s operation or maintenance procedures.
IMPORTANT: Do not lift the serving beer tank unless empty, using only lifting equipment rated for
the weight of the serving beer tank. See Table 4 for dimensions and weight.
1. Operation and maintenance procedures should only be performed by qualified personnel.
2. The serving beer tank may be used only for its designed purpose with the intended operating media
indicated within the pressure and temperature limits stipulated on the nameplate and in the manual.
Please keep this manual in a safe, easily accessible location.
3. The pressure vessel must be equipped with the appropriate safety and test measures that prevent
exceeding the maximum admissible operational data.
4. The pressure vessel must be placed on a foundation designed to accommodate its weight when full.
5. The pressure vessel must be set up and installed in a horizontal position.
6. Connections to the pressure vessel need to be attached strain-free.
7. Do not expose the pressure vessel to any vibrations during operation.
IMPORTANT: Precautions must be taken to prevent vibrations, as it can lead to fatigue failure.
8. The cooling water system should be filled before start-up and all air vented from the system. Circulate
the water before filling the tank.
9. Cooling water must not contain corrosive components that can damage the equipment. In addition,
the cooling water (preferably from a closed cooling circulation system) must be free of rough
contamination or other impurities that may cause clogging in the pressure vessel’s cooling jacket.
Connect a filter if necessary.
10. During maintenance and/or inspection of the pressure vessel, the welds must be cleaned and checked
for damage. New seals (original parts) are to be used. The safety valve must be checked for correct
operation. Before starting maintenance and/or inspection work, ensure the vessel is no longer under
pressure and is completely empty. During maintenance and/or inspection, operation may not be
initiated by a third party. When maintenance and/or inspection work has been completed, a pressure
test must be done before the vessel can resume operation.
11. When emptying the vessel, make sure that no vacuum develops.
