Installing the dispenser.
XL.

IMPORTANT: This Billi appliance is to be installed by a licensed tradesperson in accordance with
AS 3500.4 or AS/NZ 3500.4.2 and in compliance with applicable state regulatory requirements.
For correct operation of this appliance, it is essential to observe the manufacturer’s instructions.

1. Install Dispenser Assembly

Determine position of dispenser mounting
hole in sinktop or benchtop. Dispenser base
template (Diagram 5) may be cut out and
used to assist in correct positioning. Refer to
Diagram 2 for clearances allowed. Hole size
required is ø35mm.

—Stainless Steel Sinktop

A suitable 35mm hole punch (Part no: 857901)
is available as an accessory from Billi Pty Ltd.
If possible, cut hole with die mounted below
the sinktop surface so that burr is pulled
downwards. Alternatively, remove burr and
radius edge of hole with fine file. This allows
barbed dispenser mount to slide smoothly
into mounting hole.

—Timber/Laminate Benchtop

Maximum benchtop thickness is 54mm
Cut 35mm hole in appropriate position*.
When drilling through a particle board bench
top, take care to avoid a large chip breaking
away as drill breaks through underside
surface. We recommend drilling a small
pilot hole through benchtop, partially drilling
the 35mm hole from underneath and then
completing drilling the hole from above.
The large 30mm washer supplied may
be used to secure barb where underside
particle board bench top has chipped away.

* For granite or marble benchtops we

recommend you use a certified stone
mason to pre-drill the hole.

2. Activate Dispenser Swivel Feature

To activate the swivel feature of your dispenser,
you will need to remove the locking piece from
the dispenser base. Push out the piece as
shown in Diagram 6. This will allow the
tap to move 45° to the left and right.

IMPORTANT: Remove burrs and check internal
bore is completely smooth.

4. Fit Dispenser Head Assembly

a. Feed dispenser tubing and loom through

centre hole in the following order:
i. Dispenser power cord.
ii. Silicone tubes.
b. Gently pull hoses from under the bench

top, do not attempt to force tubing through

with a pointed object as silicone tube

is easily punctured. Check tubing is not

kinked or twisted.
c. Turn dispenser head assembly to

approximately 60° from the straight

ahead position of dispenser base.

Slide head assembly onto base assembly

whilst gently pulling tubing downwards

from underneath to prevent tubing

bunching and kinking. Mounting lugs

will pass nut and slide down the

3 grooves on the swivel bearing.
d. Once fully down, turn dispenser to

straight ahead position. Fit chrome

plated M4 retaining screw to lower rear

threaded hole and tighten using the allen

key supplied. If swivel feature activated

check dispenser now swivels smoothly

45° in each direction.

1. Flush Water Supply

Flush water supply pipework before installing
the underbench unit by connecting 600mm
flexible braided hose to the supply tap and
running water into a bucket. Blockages/unit
malfunction caused by debris are not covered
under warranty.

2. Install Underbench Units

Take care to observe minimum clearances.
Ensure there is adequate access to service
the units, taking into account the tube lengths
and space available Refer Diagram 1, page 2.

3. Connect Components

IMPORTANT: Boiling outlet (red), vent tube (grey)
tube must not be kinked and must be installed
with a continual fall and no sag.

Connect all tubing and electrical plug
as shown in Diagrams 10 and 11.

Trim silicon tubes to correct lengths using
a sharp knife or plastic tube cutter. Avoid
leaving excess tubing which will sag, trapping
water. Fit supplied spring clamps to retain
silicone rubber tubing to barbed fittings.
Some tube connections are made using
push-fit connectors and should be trimmed
to correct lengths. Tubes should be cleanly
cut square using a sharp knife or plastic
tube cutter. Ensure that tube ends are round
and not flattened or kinked, then push into
connectors firmly until properly seated (to
release, press the outer ring in while pulling
gently on the tube). Minimising the tube
lengths will improve the performance of the
chilled and sparkling water.

Commissioning.

1. Turn on Water Supply

Turn on water supply and ensure that there
are no leaks. Remove front panel of unit and
remove packing foam from under filter canister.
Ensure filter canister is securely locked back
into place. Replace front panel.

2. Connect and Turn on Electricity Supply

(Boiling Water Module)

When power is applied the system checks
the water level in the hot tank and if empty
(below the low level sensor) then the unit
will enter the boiling point calibration mode.
This will normally only occur the first time
a new system is turned on.

On power ON, if the hot tank level sensor
is above the low level sensor, the unit will
enter its normal operating mode at full power.
This will happen when the system has been
installed and used at least once.

IMPORTANT: On initial power up, leave the unit
for 10 minutes before attempting user setup.

— Boiling Point Calibration

The hot tank will first fill to the height of the
low level sensor. The water is then heated until
it reaches boiling point. The unit will continue to
boil for up to 30 seconds while the temperature
sensor calibrates.

4. Set Chilled Water Temperature

Set the desired water temperature using
temperature control knob. Refer to
B-5000 Sparking User Guide.

5. Set Carbonation Level

a) Open the CO2 regulator by turning the
black knob clockwise.
b) Set the initial pressure to around 2 Bar.
c) Wait for the unit to come back to
temperature.
d) Increase the pressure to set your level of
carbonation. Initial set point may vary once
the unit is running, you may need to reset the
pressure once the system has stabilised.

WARNING: Do not set the pressure above 5
Bar

6. Re-check Connections for Leaks

7. Explain Operation to User

WARNING: Steam and small amounts of hot
water may be discharged from the tap and
vent during this period.

While calibration is underway the hot
water indicator (red) will double blink rapidly.
The hot water set point is calibrated 0.5°C
below the boiling point. Once calibrated the
unit will resume normal operations and
the calibration data is saved.

The unit will not re-calibrate under normal
circumstances. If a repeated calibration is
required the following procedure should
be followed:
– turn the water supply off
– run the hot water until the hot tank is empty
– turn the power off for 5 seconds, then on again
– turn water supply on
– the unit will then re-calibrate its boiling point.

3. Connect and Turn on Electricity Supply
(Chilled Water Module)

a) Lift chilled lever on dispenser and let
the water run until it stops. Check for leaks
around the Sparkling Control box and fittings.
b) Return the chilled lever to the centre
position.
c) Press both levers down together and hold
for about 20 seconds. Water should run from
the dispenser.
d) Release the levers and check for leaks.

Note: There may be air bubbles in the water
at first as the filter is dry.
