BEVERAGE VALVES
Post-mix beverage valves are designed to precisely
meter the flow of both water and syrup to obtain the
proper mixing ratio. The syrup and soda w ate r
components of the post-mix beverage a re mixed as th ey
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 must
not fall below 40°F (4°C) or rise above 90°F (32°C).

CARBONATION
The purpose of the carbonator is to take regular tap
water at street water pressure (minimum 20 PSI,
maximum 80 PSI, dynamic or flowing pressure) 1/2"

and temperature changes.
Components
The components of the carbonator are: water pump, an
electric motor to operate the pump, carbonator tank
where the water and CO
mix, and a water level control.
2
Operation
Carbon Dioxide (CO
) leaves the storage tank and
2
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, maximum
80 PSI, 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
and the
2
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
together in the tank
2
under high pressure creates the soda water. The quality
of carbonation (percent of CO
mixed in the water)
2
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
Your syrup location can vary 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

plastic bag, filled with syrup.
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
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 unit s. 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 syru p as the bags
empty, allowing a constant flow of product.
FIGAL SYSTEM
Figal refers to the stainless steel tanks of pre-mix beverag e
or post-mix syrup. A small CO
tank pushes the beverage
2
out of the figal tank.
FIGAL T ANKS
The stainless steel Figal beverage tanks are easy to store
and connect. 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 conne ctor
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 having to shut down the
entire system. With this type of connector , push down on the
connector while pulling up on the snap ring around the
opening of the connector . Then simply pull the connector of f
the tank.
