SAFETY TIPS
Indicates an immediate hazardous situation which, if not avoided, WILL result in
serious injury, death or equipment damage.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD result in
serious injury, death, or equipment damage.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, MAY result in minor
or moderate injury or equipment damage.
•Carefully read and follow all safety messages in this manual and safety signs on the
unit.
•Keep safety signs in good condition and replace missing or damaged items.
•Learn how to operate the unit and how to use the controls properly.
•Do not let anyone operate the unit without proper training. This appliance is not
intended for use by very young children or infirm persons without supervision. Young
children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
•Keep your unit in proper working condition and do not allow unauthorized
modifications to the unit.
QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL
Only trained and certified electrical, plumbing and refrigeration technicians should
service this unit. ALL WIRING AND PLUMBING MUST CONFORM TO
NATIONAL AND LOCAL CODES. FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT IN
SERIOUS INJURY, DEATH OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This unit has been specifically designed to provide protection against personal
injury. To ensure continued protection, observe the following:
Disconnect power to the unit before servicing following all lock out/tag out
procedures established by the user. Verify all of the power is off to the unit before
any work is performed.
Failure to disconnect the power could result in serious injury, death or equipment
damage.
Always be sure to keep area around the unit clean and free of clutter. Failure to keep
this area clean may result in injury or equipment damage.
SHIPPING AND STORAGE
Before shipping, storing, or relocating the unit, the unit must be sanitized and all
sanitizing solution must be drained from the system. A freezing ambient
environment will cause residual sanitizing solution or water remaining inside the unit
to freeze resulting in damage to internal components.
CO2 (CARBON DIOXIDE) WARNING
CO2 displaces oxygen. Strict attention MUST be observed in the prevention of CO2
gas leaks in the entire CO
2 and soft drink system. If a CO2 gas leak is suspected, par-

ticularly in a small area, IMMEDIATELY ventilate the contaminated area before
attempting to repair the leak. Personnel exposed to high concentrations of CO
2 gas
experience tremors which are followed rapidly by loss of consciousness and DEATH.
Energize is a backroom soda chiller package that increases the energy efficiency
of an installation by separating the syrup lines from the chiller and python circuits
and using a heat exchanger at the dispenser location to chill the syrup. The Energize unit varies the speed of the circulating pump motors based on the system
demand.
The system consists of the backroom package, the cooler carbonator unit and the
interconnect pythons. These are arranged in a manner similar to Figure 1. Layout
details may vary according to the system location.
Figure 1.
FEATURES
• Environmentally friendly refrigerant - R404a
• Intelligent variable speed recirculation
• Syrup conditioning at the point of dispensing
• Improved water bath insulation for more unit efficiency
The cooling liquid in a beverage system takes a significant amount of energy to
maintain, usually using electrical power for this purpose. To keep the need for
energy as low as possible and save costs, the Energize unit decides between dispense times and operational readiness. During operational readiness, for example
overnight, Energize runs in standby mode. All functions are reduced to a minimum
and therefore power consumption is also at a minimum. The Energize system
identifies when drinks are dispensed, automatically switching to maximum power
to supply the required amount of ice. After dispensing, Energize switches back to
standby mode automatically.

The water bath must be filled up to the overflow with tap water. Refer to the Specifications on page 5 section of this manual for the amount of water required. To prevent
algae from forming in the water a mild disinfectant may be added to the solution.
To fill the unit, perform the procedure in Table 2.

To fill the water bath loosen the screw on the left end of the unit and
remove the cover.
Open the fill valve, located near the right rear corner (near the tubing
entrance). See Figure 3 and Figure 4.
Remove the front access panel (See Service Access on page 18) and
turn on the compressor by moving the compressor switch on the master
controller to the ON position, as shown in Figure 7. The compressor
should start and begin to cool after a 3 to 5 minute time delay.
Turn on the carbonator pump motors by moving the carbonator pump
switches to the ON position. (see Figure 7.)
If the water inlet pressure is within specifications, the carbonator pump
fills the carbonator and then switches off when the upper fill level is
reached. The carbonator tanks are located inside the water bath, as
shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9 on page 9.
Bleed air out of the carbonators and the dispensers by pulling up on the
ring attached to each relief valve, as shown in Figure 10.
Do not turn on the recirculation switches (Figure 7) until ice starts to form
on the evaporator coils.
To prevent loss or health hazard in the event of a leak, the CO2 supply and water
supply lines should be turned off when the system is not in use for a extended
period of time.

Syrup Supply
• Verify that water pressure is between 20 psi (1,4 bar) and 120 psi (8,3
bar). If the pressure is low, inspect the water filter cartridges to ensure
that they are able to supply adequate water pressure under normal sys
tem flow. Replace them if they are unable to provide the minimum pressure under load.
• If equipped with a water regulator, verify that it is set to 55 psi (3,8 bar).
