Hydro Tap Installation and Operating Instructions - 86682 - March 2012 v1.05 Page 5 of 20
Note:
Always ensure the silicone tubes are shortened so that any excess is
removed and their route is the most direct line between the tap assembly
and the HydroTap unit.
Do not allow the tubes to sag or droop so water is trapped within the
hoses. Always maintain a constant fall
Positioning of the tap assembly must be within the following parameters:
The height between the base of the Hydrotap unit and the base of the Tap
assembly cannot be greater than 900mm.
Filter Control
The Zip HydroTap filter control is preset to 6000 Litres to provide trouble-free
flow and operation in most installations. Local water quality conditions may
require an alteration to this capacity. In areas where the water has a high
concentration of sediment, the preset litre capacity may be shortened to avoid
poor flow, taste or odour situations. In areas where the water quality is above
average, lengthening the preset capacity may be desirable, but not essential. If
any of these changes is needed, follow the instructions on page 15 or contact
your Zip Service Provider.
Frost Protection
If this appliance is located where the ambient air temperature could fall below
5ºC when the heater is not in use, do not turn off the appliance electrically.
This safeguard does not offer the same protection to the connecting pipework
and fittings.
Environment Considerations
This unit is intended for indoor use only and should never be installed outdoors
or exposed to the elements of nature. This unit must not be positioned in an
area that may be cleaned by a water jet and must not be cleaned by a water
jet.
Warning:
Zip HydroTaps are designed to operate within 1ºC to 2ºC of set point for
boiling water and at 5ºC to 15ºC BC120/60+ or 5°C to 10°C B
and BC200/175+ for chilled drinking water. All boiling water units are self
calibrating to 98ºC, which is the recommended setting. Adjustments to the
98ºC setting are not recommended however, under certain circumstances
adjustments may be made between 68º - 100ºC . The 100ºC setting is not
recommended as units may discharge or boil over, more frequently.
For details see step G on page 11.
