Unit Installation
COUNTER SEALING
In order for all CEV units to comply with NSF requirements
within the United Stat es, the CEV base must be sealed to
the countertop unless the optional 4” legs are installed. All
access holes to the base must be sealed. If the 4” legs are
installed, proceed to Filling the Water Tank, otherwise
proceed as follows to seal the CEV base:
A. Tilt CEV up to expose bottom of base.
B. Remove the 2 plastic tubes under the CEV.
C. Liberally apply silastic sealant such as Dow
Corning RTV 731 or equivalent on the base
bottom edges.
D. Lower the CEV into operating position on the
counter top to complete the seal of the base to
the countertop.
FILLING THE WATER TANK
CEV must be electrically grounded to avoid possible fatal
electrical shock or serious injury to the operator. 120V CEV
power cord is equipped with a three-prong plug. If supply
cord is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer or
its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to
avoid a hazard. If a grounded electrical outlet is not
available, use an approved method to ground the CEV .
1. Make sure the plug in the water tank drain hose is
secure.
2. Remove the plug from the water fill hole located on
the carbonator pump deck. Fill the water tank with
clean water until water flows out of the tank overflow.
Use a funnel if necessary. Caution: Be careful not to
spill water on any electrical fitting or connection. Do
not use distilled water.
NOTE: An alternative method to fill the water tank would
be to temporarily splice the incoming water line into the
water tank drain hose, turn on the water and fill the tank
until water comes out the overflow drain. Turn off the
water and plug the water tank drain hose.
3. Install plug in water fill hole.
NOTE: Do not move CEV after positioning or the seal
between the base and the countertop will be broken.
E. Apply additional sealant around the bottom of
the base. The seal must be a minimum of 1/4
inch to prevent crevices and to ensure a
complete seal.
Part Number 020004000 10/132-11
4. Place CEV power switch, compressor switch and
the carbonator switch, located on the front of the
control box, in “OFF” position.

starting and operating voltage is availab le to the
unit. Complete control box instructions may be
found in the Electronic Ice & Carbonation
Control section.
D. Place CEV power switch, carbonator switch (not
used on juice units) and compressor switch to
the “ON” position. The agitator motor will start,
the transformer for the valves will be energized,
the merchandiser bulb (if equipped), power
LED, carbonator LED, and compressor LED will
be illuminated.
When a full ice bank has been formed, the compressor
and condenser fan motor will stop, but the agitator motor
will continue to operate, circulating ice bath water in the
water tank. Turn the key switch to the “ON” position to
check all beverage valves for operation.
Recommended: Beverage pour temperature should be
maintained at a constant 40° F or below for optimum
brixing value. Time required to reach the proper
temperature will be subject to water and ambient air
temperatures.
NOTE: All CEV units are equipped with a 4-5 minute
delay before the compressor and fan motor start. Be
sure to observe this time delay before expecting the
compressor or condenser fan motor to start operation.
Any interruption of power to the unit, the time delay will
need to be observed before the compressor and fan
motor will start.
The carbonator pump should be located within 6 feet of
a 1/2 inch water source. A minimum 3/8 inch ID water
line must be used. Before connection the water source
should be flushed of approximately 5 gallons of water to
purge the system of any sediments, especially in areas
of new construction.
CONNECTING THE DRAIN PAN HOSE
NOTE: Connection of the drain pan hose to a permanent
drain is recommended. A drain pan hose routed to a
waste container is not recommended due to sa nitation
problems.
1. Open the end of the drain pan nipple by cutting at
the end of the barbed area along the provided
groove.
2. Connect hose to the nipple on the drain pan.
3. Install drain pan in position on the CEV, then place
grid in the drain pan.
4. Route lower end of drain pan hose to a permanent
drain and connect according to local codes.
NOTE: If no permanent drain is available the drain pan
may be emptied manually. All CEV’s come equipped
with a drain pan that may be removed by sliding it
forward. Nothing else needs to be removed to take the
drain pan off, empty it and replace it on the CEV. If this
drain pan is hooked to a permanent drain, the drain
nipple must be opened and connected to the drain hose
as described above.
INCOMING WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
NOTE: Manitowoc Beverage Equipment recommends
that a water shutoff valve and water filter be installed in
the incoming water supply line.
The incoming water source to the equipment shall be
installed with adequate backflow protection to comply
with applicable National, State, and local codes.
Water pressure should be a minimum of 45 psi (310.3
KPa) or you will starve the pump of water and damage it.
The maximum water pressure should be 55 psi (379.2
KPa) or you will affect the quality of the carbonation.

The outlet of the syrup supply (either BIB pump or Figal tank)
connects to the appropriate syrup inlet fitting. The syrup flows
through the ice bath to be chilled on its way to the valves. The
water flows through the ice bath to the internal carbonator
then back through the ice bath chilling the carbonated water
on its way to the valves. When both fluids leave the beverage
valve they are mixed in the nozzle of the valve. Out comes a
properly cooled, properly ratioed soft drink.
When starting a new beverage system of either type, be sure
the electrically operated valves are turned off. Make sure the
voltage switch on the side of the control box is in the correct
position for the voltage in the account. Assure all connections
are made, turn the water supply on to the dispenser. Open

BEVERAGE VALVES
Post-mix beverage valves are designed to precisely meter the
flow of both water and syrup to obtain the proper mixing r atio.
The syrup and soda water components of the post-mix
beverage are mixed as they leave the beverage valve.

The CEV-30i is a 5 or 6-valve unit and the CEV-40i is an 8valve unit, both are capable of dispensing carbonated and
non-carbonated drinks. On each of these units valves 1
through 5 may be changed to carbonated or non-carbonated
water by using the flex manifold, except on 5 valve units which
use a 4 port manifold. The remaining valve(s) will dispense
carbonated water only .
The carbonator is replenished when the carbonated water
level inside the tank drops, which in turn automatically starts
the carbonator water pump. When the water level inside the
tank has been replenished, carbonator water pump will stop.

regulators to the syrup/juice BIB pump. When a dispensing
valve is activated, pressure exerted upon the syrup BIB pump
propels syrup/concentrate from the BIB, into the dispensing
valve. Plain water enters the CEV and passes through the
cooling coils to the dispensing valve. Syrup/concentrate and
plain water meet simultaneously in the dispensing valve and
mix at the nozzle resulting in a still (non-carbonated) drink
being dispensed. The BIB syrup(s)/concentrate(s) is delivered
at ambient temperature.
CARBONATED WATER
Carbon Dioxide (CO
2) leaves the storage tank and
arrives at the carbonator tank through the gas inlet.
Water supply enters the carbonator pum p inlet at regular
street water line pressure (minimum 20 psi (13 7.9 KPa),
maximum 80 psi (551.6 KPa), dynamic or flowing
pressure). The water pump increases the pressure of
the water, which allows the water to flow into the
carbonator tank. The CO
2 and the water mix together in
the carbonator to produce the carbonated water that is
then sent to the soda dispenser.
The agitation of the water and CO
2 together in the tank
under high pressure creates the soda water. The quality
of carbonation (percent of CO
2 mixed in the water)
increases as the water temperature decreases and
exposure time increases.
The water level in the carbonator tank is controlled by a
water level control in the tank. This control turns the
pump motor off and on to maintain a preset level of liquid
in the tank. The water level control may be electronic
probes or a mechanical float.
SYRUP DELIVERY SYSTEM
Y our syrup location can va ry depending on the volume of
beverages served and ease of accessibility. Your
beverage system may set in a back storage room or
under the counter of the dispenser. Configurations are
almost limitless. Check the temperatures expected for
the storage location. Adverse temperatures can affect
the storage and quality of beverage products. It is
recommended the temperature of storage location
should not fall below 40°F (4°C) or rise above 90°F
(32°C).

FIGAL SYSTEM
Figal refers to the stainless steel tanks of pre-mix
beverage or post-mix syrup. The term “Figal” is an
abbreviated word. Originally Figal was short for “five
gallons”. Today, the term usually refers to any stainless
steel tank system used in soft drink beverage supply.
The CO
sourced from a small CO
2 to push the beverage from the Figal tank is
2 tank.
The stainless steel Figal beverage tanks are easy to
store and connect. There are several items to remember
when using the Figal tanks:
•Use a gas connector for the inlet fitting of the tank.
•Use a syrup connector for the outlet fitting of the
tank.
•If more than one Figal tank is connected in series,
when changing tanks, remove the tank closest to the
original gas inlet while adding the new tank to the
connector closest to the syrup outlet.
Most Figal tanks have a self-closing valve on the tank as
well as the gas and syrup connectors. This allows the
operator of the system to change tanks without h aving to
shut down the entire system. With this type of connector ,
push down on the connector while pulling up on th e snap
ring around the opening of the connector. Then simply
pull the connector off the tank.
RACKING
Regardless if you are working on a B-I-B or Figal
system, a place will be designated for placement of the
product. A rack (or shelf) system affords systematic
placement and complete usage of the beverage paid for.
The B-I-B rack allows the boxes to lay properly for syrup
dispersal. Please check with your B-I-B syrup supplier.
Some boxes must be slightly tilted down, while others
may be in virtually any position. The Figal tank rack
keeps the newer and full tanks organized at one end of
the beverage line with the partial tanks at the other.
B-I-B
FIGAL TANKS
3-4
The Bag-In-Box system refers to a plastic disposable
bag. The B-I-B normally contains 5 gallons of syrup,
however some locations offer 2-1/2 gallon B-I-B units.
This plastic bag is then held inside a cardboard or other
container. B-I-B systems are for post-mix applications
only.
PUMPS
The syrup in a B-I-B system is delivered to the beverage
system through gas operated pumps. These pumps
extract the syrup out of the bags, forcing the syrup
throughout the system.
AUTO BAG SELECTORS
These are used on higher volume B-I-B systems where two
or more bags of the same product are connected to one
pump and one system. An auto bag selector is essentially a
valve that automatically changes from one bag (or series of
bags) to another bag (or series of bags) of syrup as the bags
empty , allowing a consta nt flow of product.
