1.10 ADJUST CONCENTRATE TO WATER RATIO (
o
BRIX)
A. Install dispensing nozzles. B. Inlet water is distributed to two (2) water regulators which supply water to the mixing spouts,
independently of each other. They are marked LEFT and RIGHT, indicating the mixing spout
they supply. On the ESCORT III, the LEFT also supplies the middle spout. Both regulators are
preset at 25 PSIG (1.76 kg/cm
2
). With a proper water source, each spout will dispense approximately 1.25 ounces of water per second (36 ml/sec). When mixed with concentrate (5 to 1 ratio), the finished drink will be dispensed at 1.5 ounces per second (43 ml/sec).
C. There are NO select options on ESCORT III units. These units are factory preset
(electronically) for the spouts and ratios provided in Table 1 (see following page).

2. OPERATING UNIT
2.1 CHANGING PRODUCT
A. Remove nozzle from spout and clean. B. Flush unit until only water is dispensed from spout (see Section 1.9). C. Remove lid from top of unit. D. Remove the Minute Pak
®
from the unit. Replace with new flavor.
E. Replace lid and nozzle.
ESCORT III
Left Middle Right
Ratio 6:1 5:1 5:1
NOTES: Because the ratios are factory preset electronically, they are not
exact and may require a slight adjustment at time of installation. This can be accomplished by using a refractometer as follows:
1. Dispense a 5 or 6 ounce (147.9 to 177.4 ml) cup of product and discard.
2. Dispense a 5 or 6 ounce cup (147.9 to 177.4 ml) of product and stir thoroughly.
3. Using a refractometer read the
o
Brix. Adjust as necessary as
explained in 1.10.D below and re-Brix.
Factory PreSet Select, Ratio, Product
Table 1
D. To adjust the °Brix, loosen two (2) screws on face of control panel until control panel can be
pulled partially out of control housing. Screws are captive and can be used to pull control panel from control housing.
(1) Each spout of the unit is controlled by an independent Drive Printed Circuit Board (PCB)
plugged into the Master PCB. The driver PCB has adjusting knobs which control the °Brix of the product selections.
(2) To adjust the °Brix turn the adjusting control as follows:
Decrease °Brix..............Turn Counter
(less concentrate) Clockwise
Increase °Brix................Turn Clockwise
(more concentrate)
E. To set a unit that has not been factory preset for a
product, adjust °Brix and change product plate on control panel.
F. In some locations, the water supply pressure may be so
low or may fluctuate so much that a 25 PSIG (1.76 kg/cm
2
) flowing water pressure cannot be maintained. As a result, the unit will not dispense a product at the proper °Brix. In this event, the regulated water pressure should be reduced below the local inlet water supply pressure so that a proper °Brix can be maintained. Reducing the regulated water pressure will reduce the finished product flow rate. Normally, the minimum recommended setting is 15 PSIG (1.06 kg/cm
2
) flowing. To reset the regulator, refer to
Section 6.9, items K-Q.
G. Readjust °Brix as necessary. H. Slide control panel into control housing and tighten

3. PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
3.1 WATER SYSTEM
Inlet water is distributed through the strainer to the left and right regulators, which reduces the inlet water pressure to 25 PSIG (1.76 kg/cm
2
).
Water is fed from the regulator through stainless steel tubes (embedded in the insulation of the tank assembly) and into the copper water coil, where the water is chilled to below 40°F (4.4°C). Water is then fed past a vacuum breaker through a stainless steel tube (embedded in the insulation of the tank assembly) to the front of the tank assembly and into the water solenoid. When a valve is activated, the corresponding water solenoid opens allowing water to pass into the spout and mix with concentrate.
Each water system is completely independent of the other. On the Escort Ill units, products can be dispensed singularly or simultaneously through the right and either left or middle spouts without a change in °Brix. When the inlet water is disconnected from the unit, the vacuum breaker will open automatically allowing water to drain out of the unit, thus preventing a freeze up when transported or stored at ambient temperatures below 32°F (0°C).
3.2 CONCENTRATE SYSTEM
When the dispensing valve is activated, concentrate is drawn from the bottom of the concentrate container, up the integral dip tube and through the check valve and concentrate tube, to the inlet of the concentrate pump.
It is metered by volume and pumped into the spout where it mixes with the water. The temperature of the concentrate does not effect the °Brix as long as it is above 32°F (0°C). The volume output of the concentrate pump is controlled electronically and can be adjusted to change the °Brix.
3.3 CONCENTRATE LOW LEVEL INDICATOR SYSTEM
The dispenser is equipped with an infrared sensor on each concentrate tube that senses the difference in light density that is passed through the tube. The unit reads juice characteristics and obtains a measurement (Learn Mode). If the unit senses a change in density, indicating a bubble or lack of concentrate while dispensing, the unit will go into Lock-Out Mode. When the unit is in Lock-Out Mode, it will disable the valve and turn on the Sold-Out LED. It will also beep if you depress the dispense button while in Lock-Out Mode. To enable dispensing, reload the concentrate container and press the reset button. This will clear the lock-out and put the unit into Learn Mode.
NOTE:
The Lock-Out Mode can be cleared by cycling power (key switch). When power is restored the unit will not go into Learn Mode.
A. If the flush switch is depressed, the unit will go into flush wait mode. In this mode the unit will
not lock out. Nine seconds of dispensing [in three (3) second continuous intervals] will take the
6
unit out of Flush Wait Mode.
B. If the valve does not dispense for over one hour, the unit will go into Inactivity Wait Mode. In
this mode the unit will not lock out. It will stay in this mode until a three (3) second continuous dispense occurs.
C. The unit enters Learn Mode when the reset switch is depressed. The unit will beep once when
entering Learn Mode. (Note: If the reset switch is depressed and the unit does not beep, it is already in Learn Mode). This clears the lock-out (shuts off the red LED, disables audible alarm, and enables dispensing).
D. Pre-learn dispense - The unit will wait for 15 seconds of dispensing [in three (3) second
increments]. This delay ensures that concentrate is in the sensor region of the tube before learning the concentrate.
E. Learn -The unit will "learn" the characteristics of whatever is in the sensor region of the tube
when a dispense (of at least one second) occurs after the pre-learn dispense is finished.
NOTE:
If the flush button is pressed after the reset/learn button, the unit will have to clear the Flush Wait Mode before it will learn the concentrate. The Flush Wait Mode is cleared by three (3) dispenses of at least three (3) seconds each. Since the pre-learn dispense requires five (5) dispenses of at least three (3) seconds each, it should have no effect on the learn unless several seconds of dispensing occur in the pre-learn dispense mode before the flush switch is pressed. In a worst case scenario, it could take an additional nine seconds of dispensing before the learn occurs if the flush switch was pressed just before the pre-learn dispense was finished.
F. The unit may be put into or out of Disable Lock-Out Mode by depressing the flush switch three
(3) times in less than two (2) seconds. When entering/leaving Disable Lock Out Mode, the unit will beep three (3) times. In Disable Lock Out Mode, the dispenser will operate without the Low Level/Sold Out features.
3.4 ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
Electrical power is fed into the transformer cabinet assembly, which contains independent Class II energy limiting step down transformers.
Each transformer is protected by a resettable circuit breaker on the primary side of the transformer. Each transformer feeds 15.3VAC to a driver PCB which controls one spout of the unit. Each driver PCB is independent of the other. The driver PCB plugs into an edge connector of the control panel PCB. Failure of a transformer or driver PCB on one spout does not effect the operation of the other spout of the unit.
Current supplied to the various devices (e.g., solenoids, sensors, lights, pump motor, etc.) by the driver PCB does not exceed 15VDC. With the exception of the pump motor, any short circuit of one or more of the devices controlled by the driver PCB will cause the driver PCB to shut OFF and cease functioning. When the short circuit is corrected by repair or replacement of the faulty device, the driver PCB will automatically reset and begin functioning. This is also true of the pump motor, except that to reset the driver PCB, the key switch must be turned to the OFF position for 30 seconds and then turned back to ON.
When the dispensing valve is activated, the driver PCB activates the water solenoid and the pump motor. The electronic system continuously monitors the pump motor and maintains exact speed (°Brix) regardless of the load on the pump motor. °Brix is changed by turning the adjusting knob on the driver PCB as described in Section 1.10C.
3.5 DISPENSING PADDLE SYSTEM
The dispensing paddle has an integrally sealed permanent magnet which activates the sensor behind the splash plate when the paddle is depressed. This causes the electronic system to activate the water solenoid and concentrate pump, allowing the unit to dispense product. The dispensing paddles are removable, without tools, for cleaning. Paddles can be removed by squeezing the top edges of each paddle together.
3.6 FLUSH SYSTEM
When the flush switch is held in position, the electronic system opens the flush solenoid and allows
7
water to flow to the check valve on the concentrate container and simultaneously operates the concentrate pump. Water flows through the check valve, the concentrate pump, and the spout. The check valve positioned at the concentrate container prevents flush water from entering the concentrate container.
3.7 REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
An ice bank is formed and maintained on the copper tube evaporator located in the water bath compartment of the tank assembly. Water is continually circulated by the agitator motor across the ice bank and around the copper water coil. Water temperature is maintained at 32°F (0°C).
Because the water compartment and concentrate compartment form an integral aluminum die casting, the concentrate compartment is maintained at a constant 35°F (0°C) temperature. When a product is dispensed, water is drawn through the copper water coils and chilled. As the ice bank is depleted, the ice bank control senses that the ice is melting and causes the compressor and condenser fan motor to start. When the ice bank is rebuilt, the control shuts off the compressor and condenser fan motor.
The compressor and condenser fan motor will operate periodically, even though no drinks are being dispensed, in order to maintain the ice bank. If the unit is unplugged or power is disrupted while operating, the compressor will not restart for a period of time during which the refrigerant pressures equalize [approximately five (5) minutes]. This feature protects the compressor from premature failure.
4. RELOCATING OR SHIPPING UNIT
4.1 REMOVING AN OPERATING UNIT
A. Perform FLUSH operation on each side of unit until a clean stream of water is being dispensed. B. Remove Minute Paks
®
.
CAUTION
IF UNIT IS TO BE TRANSPORTED OR STORED WHEN AMBIENT TEMPERATURE IS 32°F (0°C) OR LOWER, STEPS C AND D MUST BE PERFORMED TO PREVENT THE WATER SYSTEM FROM FREEZING AND DAMAGING THE UNIT. DO NOT USE CO2 GAS TO PURGE WATER FROM UNIT AS IT WILL CAUSE A HEALTH HAZARD.
C. Shut off inlet water supply. Disconnect inlet water tube from bottom of unit. About six (6) ounces
(177.4 ml) of water will drain out of the unit as the vacuum breaker opens, allowing air into system.
D. Depress each dispensing paddle. This allows additional air into the system and will cause a few
more ounces (ml) of water to drain from unit. E. Turn key switch OFF. F. Unplug unit power cord from electrical outlet. G. Remove agitator deck (see Section 6.14), and using plastic tubing, siphon water out of ice bath
compartment. It will be necessary to pour about 12 ounces (354.8 ml) of warm water (do NOT
use extremely hot water) into the ice bath compartment to completely melt the ice bank. Drain
the remaining water and replace agitator deck and secure with nuts. H. Remove drip tray and cup rest. Clean and reinstall. Wipe exterior surfaces of unit with a clean
damp cloth.
4.2 TRANSPORTING UNIT
The best method of handling and transporting a unit is to remove the legs and secure the unit to a plywood shipping base. If it is to be handled and transported with the legs assembled to the unit, special care should be taken not to damage unit. DO NOT LAY UNIT ON SIDE OR BACK.
4.3 SHIPPING UNIT
If a unit is to be shipped by a common carrier, it must be secured to the plywood shipping base and repacked in the original carton with the inner packaging material. For this reason, it is wise to retain
the original packing material.
