The valves on the tanks should be off for steps 9-11
9.
Plug the hose from your liquid container into the port
marked “Inlet” on the left side of the machine using
one of the provided 3/8” barbed fittings.
See “Adjusting Pressure” on page 12.
10. Plug one end of the provided 4’ x 1/4” tube into the
port marked “Vent” on the left side of the machine,
and place the other end into your catch basin.
11. Plug your air compressor into the port marked “Air”
on the left side of the machine using one of the
provided 1/4” barbed fittings.
12. Plug your CO2 tank into the port marked “CO2” on
the left side of the machine using one of the
provided 1/4” barbed fittings.
13. Once you are sure that all components are plugged
in correctly, you can open the valves on your tanks
and turn on the air compressor.
14. Turn on your machine by flipping the power switch
on the right side of your machine so that is it lit up.
15. You are now ready to place a bottle on your
machine. While pressing down on the Bottle Foot
Rest, place a bottle on the Bottle Foot Rest and
allow the return spring to
lightly
hold the bottle
against the stopper.
Note:
During the purge process, the bottle will
temporarily unseat from the stopper to allow air to
escape.
16.
Make sure the Pressure Release Switch is in the off
position (DOWN).
Always keep your hands clear of the bottle and foot
rest during step 17.
17.
Flip the Fill Switch to the full up position. The filler
will purge the bottle for a few seconds, after which
the Bottle Foot Rest will immediately lift the bottle
into a sealing position against the stopper and
pressurize the bottle.
18. After the purge and bottle pressurization, the fill
light will come on and liquid begins to flow into the
bottle. If no flow is visible, then the Pressure Relief
needs adjustment.
See “Adjusting Pressure” on page 12.
Repeat steps 15 – 18 for the other spouts.
19. Once the green fill light deactivates, put the Fill
Toggle Switch to the middle position (
do not flip
to
the full down position), then you can turn on the
Pressure Release Switch (UP).
20. Hold the bottle with one hand and flip the Fill
Toggle Switch to the full down position to release
air in the pneumatic ram and remove the bottle.
Note:
You can use the silicone surgical tubing included
to fill from the bottom of the bottle or even halfway to
the bottom.
Congratulations,
you have now filled your first bottle using
the XF4500 Counter-Pressure Filling System!
