—Determine unit location
Plan the installation. Dispenser tube
lengths, position of power and water outlets,
required air space around the underbench
module and access for service must be
considered before cutting tube lengths.
Refer to Diagrams 1, 2 and 3 for clearances
around the dispenser and unit. Unit must be
installed horizontally with plastic vent panel
facing to front of cupboard. The B–5000 is
designed for internal installation only.
—Water supply
The B–5000 must only be connected to a
cold water supply. A 15mm stop tap (not
supplied) is to be installed in an easily
accessible position within 450mm from
the B–5000 water supply inlet.
Supply pressure: 200 – 1000 Kpa
Supply temperature: 5°C – 30°C
DO NOT install with water that is
microbiologically unsafe or with water
of unknown quality without adequate
disinfection before the system. Systems
certified for cyst reduction may be used on
disinfected water that may contain filterable
cysts.

—Ventilation
The B–5000 requires cupboard ventilation,
adequate air space and an unobstructed
clearance of at least 25mm on each side
of the underbench unit. Door ventilation is
to be provided by spacing the door gap with
rubber stoppers.
—IMPORTANT
Insufficient ventilation will cause inefficient
refrigeration system operation, increasing
power usage.
—Power requirements
A single 10 amp standard power outlet
is required. B–5000 module is supplied
with 1 metre of flex cord and plug.

Installing
ensure internal bore is smooth

—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.
—Plan dispense position
Determine the position of dispenser
mounting hole in sinktop or benchtop.
Refer to Diagram 2 for clearances allowed.
Dispenser base template may be cut out and
used to assist in correct positioning. Refer
to Diagram 7. Hole size required is 35mm.
—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 sinktop surface so that burr is pulled
downwards. Alternatively remove burr and
radius edge of hole with a fine file. This
allows barbed dispenser mount to slide
smoothly into mounting hole. Oil hole punch
regularly. Lubricate surface to be cut with
detergent.
—Timber/laminate benchtop
Maximum benchtop thickness is 48mm.
Cut 35mm hole in appropriate position.
When drilling through a particle board
benchtop, take care to avoid a large chip
breaking away as drill breaks through
underside surface. We recommend drilling
a small pilot hole through the benchtop,
partially drilling the 35mm hole from
underneath and then completely drilling the
hole from above. The large 30mm washer
supplied may be used to secure barb where
underside particle board benchtop has
chipped away.
—Fit dispenser base
—Cut a 35mm hole in sinktop or benchtop.
Remove burr if protruding upwards.
—Press barbed mounting shaft through
mount hole. Finger tighten nut.
—Insert barb locking bush as shown
in Diagram 4.
—Ensure barb is centred in mount hole
before tightening. Check position of base
ring and gasket.
—Moderately tighten locking nut using
multigrips or spanner. Take care to avoid
overtightening nut which may break the
plastic threaded shaft.
—Cut off excess threaded shaft with
a hacksaw.
—IMPORTANT
Remove burrs and check internal bore
is completely smooth.
—Fit dispenser head assembly
—Lay dispenser head assembly alongside
mounting base assembly.
—Feed dispenser tubing and loom through
centre hole in the following order:
—Dispenser power cord.
—Grey vent silicone tube. Feed tube until
reducing join passes through mount
assembly – see Diagram 6.
—Red and blue silicone tubing. To assist
feeding the tubing, we recommend
using silicone spray lubricant. Do not
attempt to force tubing through with a
pointed object as silicone tube is easily
punctured. Check tubing is not kinked
or twisted.
—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.
—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. Check dispenser now swivels
smoothly 45° in each direction.

Installing
underbench
module.
WARNINGS.
—Flush water supply
Flush water supply pipework before
installing the underbench unit by connecting
450mm flexible braided hose to the supply
tap and running water into a bucket.
—Install underbench unit
Take care to observe minimum clearances.
This is particularly important with air-cooled
models. Ensure there is adequate access
to service the unit.
—Connect dispenser tubing
and electrical plug
Connect all tubing and electrical plug as
shown in Diagram 8 and 9. Ensure correct
orientation of dispenser power plug before
insertion. Trim tubes to correct lengths using
a sharp knife or plastic tube cutter. Avoid
leaving excess tubing which will sag, trapping
water. Fit spring clamps supplied to retain
silicone rubber tubing to barbed fittings
—IMPORTANT
Boiling outlet (red) and vent tube (grey)
must not be kinked and must be installed
with a continual fall.
—Commission the System
a) Turn blue temperature control knob
to OFF.
b) Turn electricity supply ON at wall outlet.
c) Turn water supply tap ON.
d) Check that there are no leaks.
—Enter pipe length calibration mode
To enter SETUP mode, turn on the unit and
wait for normal operation. Now depress
both the Hot and Cold levers and while they
are down, press and hold the safety switch
for 3 seconds until the display has changed
to yellow, then release the switch and both
levers. Once in SETUP mode, repeat the
procedure for entering setup – this will take
you to the pipe length calibration mode. The
red and blue tap indicators will now blink:
blue slowly and red faster.
—To change the pipe length
—Press and release the hot lever to reduce
the pipe length.
—Press and release the cold lever to
increase the pipe length.
—After each press wait for the tap to
demonstrate the dispense operation.
No water should be dispensed when
the correct length is selected.
The best way to determine the correct
pipe length setting is to increase the length
(by pressing the cold lever) until a splash of
water is observed, then decrease the length
(by pressing the hot lever) until no splash
is observed.
