Safe Installation Dos and Don’ts
Read the following warnings before beginning an
installation. Failure to do so may result in possible
death or serious injury.
•DO adhere to all National and Local Plumbing and
Electrical Safety Codes.
•DO turn OFF incoming electrical service switches
when servicing, installing, or repairing equipment.
•DO check that all flare fittings are tight. This check
must be performed with a wrench to ensur e a quality
seal.
•DO inspect pressure on regulators before starting up
equipment.
•DO protect eyes when working around refrigerants.
•DO use caution when handling metal surface edges
of all equipment.
•DO handle CO
Secure cylinders properly against abrasion.
•DO store CO
•DO NOT exhaust CO
into an enclosed area, including all types of walk-in
coolers, cellars, and closets.
•DO NOT throw or drop a CO
cylinder(s) in an upright position with a chain.
•DO NOT connect the CO
product container. Doing so will result in an explosion
causing possible death or injury. It is best to connect
the CO
cylinder(s) to a regulator(s).

•DO NOT store CO
125°F (51.7°C) near furnaces, radiator or sources of
heat.
•DO NOT release CO
•DO NOT touch refrigeration lines inside units; some
may exceed temperatures of 200°F (9 3. 3° C) .

Installer Instructions
The remainder of these instructions is to be
completed by an authorized Multiplex Installer.
These equipment instructions are intended to assist
qualified personnel in the unpacking, locating and the
initial operation of the Multiplex Beverage Equipment
and/or Post Mix Refrigeration Unit.

Read instructions before attempting installation.
Electrical
GENERAL
All wiring must conform to local, state and national
codes.
MINIMUM CIRCUIT AMPACITY
The minimum circuit ampacity is used to help select the
wire size of the electrical supply. (Minimum circuit
ampacity is not the beverage/ice machine’ s running amp
load.) The wire size (or gauge) is also dependent upon
location, materials used, length of run, etc., so it must be
determined by a qualified electrician.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Refer to Machine Model/Serial Plate for
voltage/amperage specifications.
ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
ALL TOWERS
PREPARATION
The Multiplex Beverage Equipment Soda Tower is preassembled in the factory and requires min im um
installation.
For future reference or to be used when ordering parts,
record the Model Number, Serial Number, Part Numbers
of Unit, Condenser (if remote), Towers, etc., and Date of
Installation on the inside of this Manual. Leave manual
on site in a safe place. Do not discard manual.
Ambient Location Requirement
This equipment is rated for indoor use only. It will not
operate in sub-freezing temperature. In a situation when
temperatures drop below freezing, the equipment must
be turned off immediately and properly winterized.
Contact the manufacturer for winterization process.

MAKING THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
1. Locate the low voltage transformer and position it
below the tower in a shielded and protected area. Use
the screws provided to secure the transformer to the
cabinet.
2. Route the transformer cords up to the rear of the
dispensing tower and plug into the cords in the rear of
the tower.
3. Connect the transformer power supply cord to an

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
When using electric appliances, basic precautions
The beverage/ice machine must be grounded in
accordance with national and local electrical codes.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of
malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of
electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly inst alled and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an outer surface
that is green with or without yellow stripes is the
equipment grounding conductor. If repair or
replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a
live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or
serviceman if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether
the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the appliance — if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
must always be followed, including the following:
a. Read all the instructions before using the
appliance.
b. To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is
necessary when an appliance is used near
children.
c. Do not contact moving parts.
d. Only use attachments recommended or sold by
the manufacturer.
e. Do not use outdoors.
f. For a cord-connected appliance, the following
shall be included:
• Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug,
grasp the plug, not the cord.
• Unplug from outlet when not in use and
before servicing or cleaning.
• Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance
malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any
manner. Contact the nearest authorized
service facility for examination, repair, or
electrical or mechanical adjustment.
g. For a permanently connected appliance — Turn
the power switch to the off position when the
appliance is not in use and before servicing or
cleaning.
h. For an appliance with a replaceable lamp —
Always unplug before replacing the lamp.
Replace the bulb with the same type.
2-12
i. For a grounded appliance — Connect to a
properly grounded outlet only. See Grounding
Instructions.

1. Locate the Barb stem splicers and tab clamps in the
install kit.
NOTE: The Installation Kit provides syrup connections
for the 1/2 or 3/8 ID conduit. The circulating carbonated
water lines are supplied with 1/2 barbs only. Determine
the conduit size prior to the attaching barb systems.
2. Attach barb splicer to the syrup lines labeled #1, #2,
#3, #4, #5, #6, #7, #8, #9 and #10 and clamp in
place. Attach two (2) 1/2 x 1/2 barb splicers to the
lines labeled #7 Carbonated Water and #8
Carbonated Water and clamp in place. Attach one
(1) 1/2 x 1/2 barb splicer to the line labeled "W" and
clamp in place.
3. Attach the syrup lines labeled #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6,
#7, #8, #9 and #10 to the corresponding number or
color lines of the conduit. Clamp in place.
4. Connect the plain water line labeled "W" to the plain
water supply and clamp in place.
5. Attach the Carbonated water line to the line labeled
#7 Carbonated Water and #8 Carbonated Water,
then clamp in place.
Model 143
1. Route the beverage conduit up to the stainless steel
barb stem adaptors at the base of the dispensing
tower. If the line s of the conduit are dif ferent lengths,
always connect the shortest line first. Use two (2)
tab clamps at every connection.
2. Attach the three (3) syrup lines labeled #1, #2, and
#3 to the corresponding numbered barb fittings of
the dispensing tower. Use two (2) tab clamps per
connection.
3. Attach the Carbonated Water line labeled "xF or xR"
of the beverage conduit to the barb stem of the
tower labeled "xF or xR". Use two (2) tab clamps.
How to Insulate all the Connections
NOTE: Make sure all exposed Carbonated Water, Plain
Water, and Syrup Lines are well insulated.
1. To insulate use conduit sections, aluminum foil and
tape.
2. Cut the conduit sections to fit snugly over the
exposed lines and fittings.
3. After all the lines are properly insulated, wrap tightly
with tape to assure air tightness. This will prevent
condensation from forming on the lines and prevent
dripping.
