ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Refer to the Data Plate on the dispenser, and local/national electrical codes to determine circuit requirements. WARNING - If the power cord is ever damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent with a special cord available from the manufacturer or its service agent in order to avoid a hazard.

The LCA-1 is supplied with a 120-volt / 15 Amp cord set and require a 2-wire, grounded, individual branch circuit rated for 120 volts AC, 15 amp, single phase, 60Hz. The mating connector must be a NEMA 5-15R.

The LCA-1A dispenser is internally wired from the factory for 220-240 volts AC, Single Phase, 50/60 Hz. It requires a 2-wire, grounded, individual branch circuit rated for 240 volts AC.

PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS

The dispenser may be connected to a cold or hot water system (140°F (60°C) Max.) with operating pressure between 20 and 90 psi (0.138 and 0.620 MPa) from a 3/8” (10mm) or larger supply line. A shut-off valve should be installed in the line before the dispenser. Install a regulator in the line when pressure is greater than 90 psi (0.620 MPa) to reduce it to 50 psi (0.345 MPa). The water inlet fitting is 1/4” flare. The dispensers set up to deliver to 1.25 Oz./sec. (37.0 ml/sec.) and require a water supply source that can deliver a minimum of 1.0 gpm (3.8 lpm) at the inlet fitting.

NOTE: Bunn-O-Matic recommends 1/4” tubing from the 3/8” water supply line. At least 18 inches (0.5m) of FDA approved flexible beverage tubing, such as reinforced braided polyethylene or silicone, before the dispenser will facilitate movement to clean the counter top. Bunn-O-Matic does not recommend the use of a saddle valve to install the dispenser. The size and shape of the hole made in the supply line by this type of device may restrict water flow.

NOTE - Water pipe connections and fixtures directly connected to a potable water supply shall be sized, installed and maintained in accordance with federal, state and local codes.

BUNN recommends the use of our Easy Clear® Water Quality Systems to assure perfect taste.

Filter Kits - Easy Clear EQHP-10L w/Scale Inhibitor (Bunn-O-Matic part no. 39000.0001) or

5.Install the Graphic decal in the door.

LOCATING THE DISPENSER

Additional clearance is required on both sides and behind the dispenser to allow for proper air flow and cooling. The dispenser requires a minimum space of 16.6” wide x 17.8” tall x 23.0” deep (42,2 x 45,2 x 58,4 cm)(to allow for the drip tray, water and electrical connections). In addition, allow enough clearance on the left-hand side to allow the door to open freely.

NOTE: In high ambient location where the air temperature around the dispenser could exceed 95°F (35°C), additional clearance is required on both sides and behind the dispenser to allow for proper air flow and cooling.

PLUMBING HOOK-UP

1.Flush the water line to remove any debris or foreign material.

2.Remove the shipping cap from the inlet fitting on the back of the dispenser and securely attach the water line to the fitting supplied.

3.Turn on the water supply and check for leaks.

ELECTRICAL HOOK-UP

CAUTION: Improper electrical installation will damage electronic components.

Refer to Data Plate on the dispenser, and local/national electrical codes to determine circuit requirements.
