Water

Connection

This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as the following:

• Staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments.

• Farm houses and by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments

• Bed and breakfast type environments

• Catering and similar non-retail applications

PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS

This dispenser must be connected to a COLD WATER system with operating pressure between 30psi minimum and 60 psi maximum (206.8 kPa and 413.7 kPa). This water source must be capable of producing a minimum flow rate of 3 fluid ounces (88.7 milliliters) per second. A shut off valve should be installed in the line before the dispenser. Install a regulator in the line when pressure is greater than 100 psi (690 kPa) to reduce it to 50 psi (345 kPa). The regulator is also necessary if the water source has pressure fluxuations. The main water inlet is a 3/8" (9.52 mm) MFL connection (

APPLICATIONS

Figure 3).

Figure 3. Plumbing Connection

This equipment must be installed to comply with the International Plumbing Code of the International Code Council and the Food Code Manual of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). For models installed outside the U.S.A., you must comply with the applicable Plumbing/Sanitation Code for your area.

RECEIVING

Each unit is completely tested and inspected before shipment. At the time of shipment, the carrier accepts the unit and any claim for damage must be made with the carrier.

Upon receiving the unit(s) from the carrier, inspect the carton for visible damage. If damage exists, have the carrier make a note on the bill of lading and file a claim with the carrier.

UNPACKING

• Remove staples securing carton to pallet.

• Lift carton up and off of unit.

• Remove inserts and shipping bag.

• Open upper cabinet door and remove installation kit.

• Remove bolts securing unit to pallet.

• Lift unit off of pallet.

NOTE: Do not lay the unit on it’s side or back. This may cause vital

oils to drain from the compressor resulting in damage during start-up and consequently voiding the warranty.

Quest Elite 2000 Installation Manual

Minimum 12’’ Air Flow Clearance at Top

Minimum 4’’ Clearance at Back and 4’’ at Sides

COUNTER LOCATION

Select a location in a well ventilated area, close to a grounded electrical outlet. If possible do not place the unit close to hot and/or steaming machines.

The minimum airflow clearance is: 4” (10.16 cm) in back and 12” (30.48 cm) on top and open to the front.

IMPORTANT: Condenser air is drawn in from the bottom of the rear

nel and discharged out the top of the rear panel.

pa Failure to maintain clearance space will reduce capacity of the unit and cause premature compressor failure.

The Dispenser needs to be placed using

4 inch legs that are included.

FILLING THE ICE BATH

The ice bath holds approximately 1.62 gallons (6.2 liters) of water. The fill tube is located behind the front splash plate and capped with a 0.5” plug.

1. Remove the 0.5” plug and attach the tube to any one of the dispense nozzles.

2. Open the door and verify that the flush/dispense lever is in the dispense mode. (see Figure 5) Ice bath must always be filled in the dispense mode.

NOTE: Non flush units does not have a flush/dispense lever,

hence for filling water bath on non flush units please remove the concentrate storage bottles first and then attach the tube to any one of the dispense nozzles and close the door, press and hold the dispense button (push) until the tank is filled and water trickles from the overflow

CONNECTING WATER SUPPLY

The Quest Elite series Juice Dispenser is designed to dispense juice at a high flow rate. It is very important that the incoming water line be dedicated for use by the dispenser only and does not have other machines connected which could cause a water surge, (i.e., a dishwasher, coffee maker, etc.).

IMPORTANT: The water supply should be consistent with proper

1. Secure the 3/8” (0.95 cm) swivel nut on the flexible supply tubing to the water inlet located at the rear of the dispenser. Make sure that the flared gasket is used (flared gasket P/N 311304000 is included with the installation kit).

water quality standards (neutral pH of 7.0 to 8.0), and should not be connected to a water softener. It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that all water connections to the dispenser are sized, installed with adequate backflow protection and maintained to comply with Federal, State, and Local Laws.

Figure 7. Water Supply Connection on Rear of Unit

2. When securing flare nut, use a backup wrench on the male side of the inlet fitting (unit side) to prevent twisting of the copper tube inside the unit and/or possible damage to the water strainer/solenoid. Water shut off outside the unit is recommended.

PRIMING/FLUSHING WATER SYSTEM

To properly prime the unit with water and remove air pockets in the system, open the cabinet door and make sure that all the valve levers are in the Dispense position.

Close the door and press the dispense button for a few seconds. Repeat until a steady flow of water is observed from all dispense valves.

NOTE: Some splashing may occur during this purge cycle.

Quest Elite 2000 Installation Manual

PROGRAMMING THE PORTION CONTROL

If the dispenser has optional portion controls, they have been pre-programmed from the factory to pour 7, 12, and 16 ounce drinks. The “extra large” (pitcher icon) size has also been pre-programmed to pour 16 ounces. To change the pour sizes, please perform the following procedure.

Ta b l e 1

Step Action

Simultaneously, press and hold Small and Extra Large buttons on the Portion

Control Module until the Refill light starts blinking. Release the buttons. The blinking Refill light indicates the programming mode is active. See Figure 9.

Place a cup under the dispense nozzle and push the selected size button (small,

medium, large, or extra large). Hold the button in until the cup fills to the desired portion, then release the button. Repeat the procedure for the remaining sizes.

After programming all the drink sizes, press and release the Stop button to return

the Portion Control to the operational mode. The blinking REFILL light goes off.

In the future, to change the portion size of the drinks, the individual sizes can be

adjusted by performing Step 2. It is not necessary to reprogram every size. Additionally, the portion control has full memory retention in case of a power failure.

STOP BUTTON

To pour a drink without using a pre-programmed portion control size, simply push and hold the Stop button. Release when the glass is full.
