PREFACE
Crysalli is manufactured on behalf of Western Pacific Distributors by
International Carbonic Inc.
INTERNATIONAL CARBONIC INC. has enjoyed over 53 years of manufacturing excellence in the field of carbonation and in the beverage related industry. They have had a long and proud history with quality as their standard and innovation as their goal. They enjoyed patents on the first Sodajet type carbonator. This method of carbonation instantaneously carbonated the water to 100% saturation. They developed the first patented dispensing valve to dispense bulk beverage with carbonation equal to or in excess of bottled beverages. A valve with three flavors and soda was another first. They were the first to incorporate the total postmix package, i.e., carbonation, refrigeration, and the ability to dispense from one self contained unit. They have pioneered many such firsts and will continue to develop advanced systems for the future, such as electronic interrogatable portion controls to electronic liquid level controls.

CHAPTER I
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This chapter gives the description, theory of operation, and design data for the CR-2 and
CR-UC2 Crysalli units and related components.
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Crysalli CR-UC2 series of Undercounter Artisan Water units are a configuration of cold dispensed sparkling and still filtered water, requiring a draft tower to dispense the product.
The Crysalli CR-2 series Countertop Artisan Water units are configured to dispense cold sparkling and still filtered water directly from the taps on the unit. Left side tap is always sparkling water,, right side is always still water.
The CR-2 and CR-UC2 units consist of a condensing unit, a water reservoir, watercooling coil, a carbonator tank, (carbonated systems only), an agitator pump, and cooling coil(s).
For proper function the Crysalli units must have a filtered water supply, and electrical supply and drainage. Other items that will be required are the Draft tower, water filtration system, installation kit including a High pressure regulator or secondary pressure regulator, connecting lines, fitting and C02.
WARNING: Before shipping or relocating a Crysalli into a freezing ambient environment empty still and carbonated water. Ice bank melted, and water drained from water bath. A freezing ambient environment will cause existing water in unit to freeze possibly resulting in damage to pump/motor assembly, water coil, water bath, valve(s), etc.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The Crysalli was designed to manufacture and dispense carbonated and non-carbonated water much like your local bottling plant that cans or bottles your favorite carbonated or non-carbonated water.
Initially water is chilled and then carbonated to dispense a quality drink. To chill the water the water is routed through a water coil that is submerged in an ice-cold water bath. The temperature of the incoming water is at ambient temperature as it enters the water coil.
As the incoming water passes through the water coil the heat is removed from the water in the water coil and chilled to a temperature acceptable for a quality drink. The chilled water is now routed into a carbonator tank where this cold water is mixed with CO2. This water is now transformed into a carbonic acid, (sparkling water). The cold sparkling water and still is plumbed to the Carbonation Adjustment Valve which blends still water into the sparkling water. At this point the still and sparkling water ration can be adjusted and set to achieve a specific bubble texture and size.
The units contain a water bath. A certain amount of this water will be transformed into ice.
This water reserve and ice bank will act as a reservoir for refrigeration. This reserve is utilized during peak periods when the BTU output of the compressor is not sufficient to meet the demand of the draw.
It should be recognized that without refrigeration your carbonation system would not produce a drink that will hold carbonation. There is a direct relationship between dispensed temperature and the volumes of C02 that can be held in liquid form.
The following will give a general overview of the flow of individual circuits and a clearer understanding of our mini bottling plant.
Carbon dioxide gas (CO2) passes from a C02 cylinder through high-pressure regulator
(S-101). The high-pressure regulator regulates the CO2 feeding the Crysalli and should be set at 70-75 PSI. The gas, after leaving the high-pressure regulator, is routed through flexible tubing to a low-pressure regulator. The flow of CO2 is teed to go in two directions at the low-pressure regulator. One path takes the gas, set at 55 to 75 PSI, to the carbonator tank. This gas must be at a pressure greater than the incoming water by at least 25-PSI to assure the proper function of the carbonator
As discussed earlier plain water enters the Crysalli through the incoming water line. This water proceeds through the water coil where it is chilled prior to entering the carbonator tank or in the case of non-carbonated water chilled prior to going directly to a valve. Prior to entering the carbonator tank an optional regulator (S-208A) may be installed. This assembly is utilized to maintain water pressure feeding a non-carbonated valve when used in conjunction with carbonated valves.
The water source should be regulated, this is normally performed by the use of an in line water regulator. If the water is not regulated and the water pressure is equal or greater than the incoming CO2 the act of carbonation will be greatly inhibited or completely eliminated.
At the proper settings, the gas pressure will stop the water from entering the carbonator tank. To force the water into the tank a liquid level control and motor/pump will be used.
This combination will force the water into the tank mixing the water and CO2 together.
The carbonator utilizes a Soda Jet Recirculating Principle. This process was pioneered in the early 1950's. This principle produces instantaneous carbonation at extremely large capacities of 100 gallons per hour minimum.
14
The level of the carbonated water within the stainless steel mixing tank is used to operate the motor driven pump. The liquid level control, in conjunction with a probe housed in the carbonator tank, controls the pump motor. The motor will come on when the carbonated water within the mixing tank recedes to a predetermined low level and stops the pump motor when the carbonated water reaches a predetermined high level.
During the cycle of operation, fresh water enters the carbonator tank through the soda jet after passing through the water pump. The water pump has impellers, which drives the water through the water coil then a dual check valve and then through the soda jet and into the carbonator tank.
The position and angle of the soda jet is fixed to direct an extremely high velocity solid jet of fresh water so as to impinge upon the surface of the stored body of carbonator water within the stainless steel mixing tank. The force created by this jet of fresh water entering the mixing tank causes all the water within to cascade and foamesce through the carbon dioxide gas area in a continuous recirculating-manner.
This action causes a breakdown of the surface tension of the water, forming numerous minute gases filled water bubbles. The micro thin walls of these water bubbles surrounded by gas both inside and out, offer maximum water surface for the absorption of the gas. The size opening through this jet permits large volumes of water to be carbonated.
As the incoming water is being carbonated, the level within the tank rises to contact the upper probe tip, which will de-energize a relay on the liquid level control and stop the motor from turning the pump. This motor will be inactive until water within the tank recedes below the long probe tip, at which time, the relay on the liquid level control will close, engaging the motor once again.
REMOTE CIRCULATING COOLING SYSTEM (in the CR-UC2 only)
The remote station circulating cooling system is used as its name implies to cool the water, and soda water lines between the dispenser and the remote stations.
The cooling is accomplished by circulating the water from the cold water bath of the dispenser through tubing to the remote station and then returning this partially warmed water to the water bath.
When installing stations remote from the dispenser cabinet, the following operations are very important:
Location of the Cabinet: - Locating the dispenser cabinet properly depends upon two factors: convenience to the user and convenience of installation and service.
If cabinet is not used as a serving station it is permissible to place it in a basement, back room, or any other out of the way place. However, it is important to locate the cabinet as close as possible to the remote station in order to keep the heat loss through the insulated extended lines at a minimum. When used as a serving station, it is necessary to place the cabinet where it will be most accessible to the operator.
Water shut off valves and power switches should be located as near the cabinet as possible in order to facilitate service. Where an air-cooled condenser is used, there should be enough space surrounding the cabinet to insure adequate air circulating through the refrigeration condenser. Space should also be provided if possible, for doing service work on the cabinet. Note: when units are located in isolated rooms outside ventilation is necessary and air conditioning is recommended.
15
CAUTION: In order to have even distribution of cold water, the cold-water circulating lines must always be run in series even on multiple station installations.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to leave all connections and fittings exposed until after the entire system has been pressure tested.
In order to insure maximum heat transfer between the braided plastic lines (through which the water and soda are carried) and the circulating tubing, it is necessary to tape these lines firmly together.
It is of utmost importance that the extended lines of the remote installation be properly and adequately insulated. Failure to do this will cause overloading of the refrigeration unit and ice bank, condensation on the outside of the insulation and reduced cold drink dispensing capacity.
CAUTION: All open ends, joints and connections of the insulation must be sealed air tight to prevent outside air from entering the insulated duct. Outside air, which contains moisture, would condense this moisture within the insulation duct resulting in the insulation becoming wet, which would reduce its insulating qualities. Water dripping from duct would also result.
Pressure Drop within the Carbonated Water Lines – All Soda systems will maintain the pressure necessary to prevent any carbonation loss throughout the entire system even while the valve is open.
Attention must be given to avoid restrictions in the lines, which may cause a reduction in pressure upon the carbonated water and allow some of the gas to escape from the carbonated water in the lines.
The pressure is measured on pounds per square inch and is the reduction in pressure within the carbonated water line between the carbonator outlet and the valve inlet while carbonated water is being drawn.
The amount of pressure drop will vary with the length of the line, size of the tubing used,
(inside Diameter), the rise of the line, and the flow of the carbonated water through the line, (gallons per hour).
Carbonated water lift pressure is .45 pounds per foot rise.
The pressure drop within a carbonated water line should not exceed 30 P.S.I.
When soda lines are run more than 10 feet in any one direction a minimum of 3/8” tubing is recommended. When soda li nes are run more than 50 feet 1/2” tubing is recommended.
Braided Plastic Tubing – The flexible braided plastic tubing is used for carbonated water..
It will withstand high pressure and is easily installed because of its flexibility but should never be used in contact with hot water or steam lines.

SELECTING LOCATION
IMPORTANT: Ambient temperature for CR-2 and CR-UC2 should not exceed 100 degrees “F.” Operation of cooling unit in ambient above 100 degrees “F” can and will contribute to early failure of condensing unit and poor quality of finished product.
17
LOCATION RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CR-UC2
1. Position unit as close as possible to proper electrical source, 120V 60HZ.
2. Position unit with a minimum of 6 ” space between bulkhead and cabinet for sufficient ventilation (air in and air out). Pour ventilation can cause the unit to overheat and shut down or have pour performance characteristics. Allow enough space between ceiling and unit for lid removal.
3. Position unit as close as possible to water source. Half-inch gate valve recommended for water connection.
4. Enough space must be allowed to install C02 cylinder and, water filter.
5. Position unit as close as possible to floor drain for over flow tube. Unit will primarily only drain water from over flow tube upon initial start-up and freezing of ice bank.

INSTALL WATER FILTER ASSY.
1. Install water filter assembly on wall or other supporting structure.
2. Connect water filter assembly to inlet of valve on water supply line using minimum 3/8"
I.D. water line. Everpure QC71 Twin filter heads have ¾” fmp and must be reduced down.
3. Connect water filter assembly outlet to SCR plain water inlet fitting using minimum
3/8" I.D. water line. See CONNECTING WATER INLET.
When a water filter is used, it is important that it has a minimum 100 gallons per hour capacity and should be thoroughly flushed before it is connected to the water inlet connection.
WATER PRESSURE REGULATOR & BACK FLOW PREVENTER (OPTIONAL)
- If water pressure exceeds 60 psi, a water pressure regulator or water pressure-reducing valve should be installed after the water filter in the water supply line and adjusted to maintain a pressure of 50 psi. (The water regulator must have an orifice of at least 3/16” so as not to restrict the water flow through the valve. Valves that are built with 1/2" pipe thread connection usually have a sufficient orifice opening.)
- Always reference local plumbing code for local standards about Back Flow Preventers such as need, installation placement and type of back flow preventer required.
25
INSTALL OVER FLOW DRAIN LINE
1. Rout drain hose or connect hose on CR-UC# unit with drain using 1/2” I.D. clear plastic pipe or 1/ 2” copper or PVC to nearest outlet or floor sink to capture over flow upon startup and for drain out of water bath for maintenance. If running to a floor sink run drain to local plumbing codes.
2. Do not reduce drain connection from cabinet outlet.
3. Water may drain from drain hose until ice bank has been completely made (2-3 hour for ice bank to form after initial start-up).
4. The over flow drain hose primarily functions to drain water at the initial startup as the ice banks forms in the water bath and displaces the water level, pushing water up and out the over flow tube, and after that point, the unit will not drain water.
CONNECTING WATER INLET
WATER PIPE CONNECTIONS AND FIXTURES DIRECTLY CONNECTED TO
POTABLE WATER SUPPLY SHALL BE SIZED, INSTALLED AND MAINTAINED
ACCORDING TO FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL LAWS .
The water connection on the CR-UC2 and CR-2 is made to a flexible water line by means of a
3/8”, male flare. Due to the large capacity of the pump, any restriction of the incoming fresh water supply would starve the water pump and create noise within the pump, poor carbonation and extremely long running time.
After all primary water lines are made up, but prior to connecting water supply to cabinet, be sure to thoroughly flush all incoming water lines to remove all scale and any impurities that may be in the lines. It is important to remember that the CR has a carbonator capacity of a minimum of 100 gallons per hour. Therefore, it is imperative that the fresh water conduit has not less than 3/8” I.D. passageway for any distance greater than ten feet from the CR. It can be reduced to 3/8” O.D., c opper tubing and connected to the water inlet connection with-in ten feet of the CR. All water inlet connections are clearly tagged.
26
CONNECTING THE DRAFT TOWER (CBR-V2) TO CR-UC2
The CBR-V2 draft tower contains two water lines plumbed to the faucets, one for carbonated sparkling water the other for still water. Connect these lines to the labeled braided lines from the trunk line, which extends from the CR-UC2 unit. The CBR-V2 also has two re-circ line which should be connected to the clear re-circ lines also from the trunk line. Care should be taken to wrap any exposed lines with foam tape to insulate them.
SINGLE CBR-V2 TOWER INSTALL DETAIL
27
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS:
The CR-UC# requires a 120 VAC, single phase, 60-Hertz power circuit, and must be wired in accordance with N.E.C. or local ordinance.
NOTE: Check CHAPTER I for running amperage and connect to appropriate electrical circuit.
TWO CBR-V2 TOWERS INSTSALL DETAIL.
28
CHAPTER III
PREPARATION
All steps in previous chapters should be understood and carried out before proceeding.
PREPARING SYSTEM FOR OPERATION
Be sure that electrical power is unplugged, valve on C02 cylinder is closed, and valve on water supply line is closed, and release pressure of C02 gas and water from carbonator tank.
PREPARING AND STARTING REFRIGERATION UNIT
3. Fill water bath with clean water up to ¼” from top of standpipe or until water runs out of drain standpipe, (S-657). (water will drain from standpipe until ice bank is completely made)
4. Open water inlet supply line. compressor, condenser fan motor, agitator motor start. The process of cooling the water bath will now commence. With ambient and water temperature of 75 degree “F” initial pull down or formation of complete ice bank will take approximately 5 hrs. When full ice bank has been formed, compressor and condenser fan motor will stop. Agitator will continue to operate, circulating water in water bath.
ACTIVATE HIGH PRESSURE C02 SYSTEM
1. Open valve on the C02 cylinder. Be sure to open valve completely or until valve is back seated.
2. Turn high pressure C02 regulator screw clockwise until the pressure is 55 to 75 psi.
3. Dispense water from dispensing valves until the carbonator activates.
4. Allow carbonator to run until it automatically shuts off. Pump is fully primed and carbonator is now ready for use.
5. Check all connections on high pressure C02 system for leaks. Repair any leaks that are found.
ADJUST WATER FLOW RATE
Control dispensing water flow rate at the faucets by adjusting the flow compensator valve handle on the right side of the black faucets. Horizontal is full open. Quarter turn is closed.
Incoming water pressure from the water filter to the CR unit can be set via the Water Pressure
Regulator. Set between 40 and 60 psi. Or use the preset nonadjustable 50 psi regulator.
29
CHAPTER IV
OPERATORS INSTRUCTIONS
This chapter covers operator’s responsibilities for daily pre -operation check, adjustments, replenishing C02 and syrup supplies, cleaning, and sanitizing.
DAILY PRE-OPERATION CHECK
1. Make sure high-pressure C02 regulator's pound per square inch indicator is not in shaded portion of dial. If so, C02 cylinder is almost empty and must be replaced.
NOTE: This reading should be carried out at normal room temperature.
REPLENISHING C02 SUPPLY
NOTE: If pound per square inch indicator of high pressure C02 regulator on C02 cylinder is in shaded portion of the dial, C02 cylinder is almost empty and should be changed.
C02 supply must be checked daily and if necessary, replenished as instructed (see
CHAPTER II) or contact CO2 supplier.
COOLING UNIT MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Air circulation through the condenser coil, required to cool the condenser coil/compressor, is drawn in through grills on the cooling unit, through condenser coil and is exhausted out grills on the sides of the unit. Restricting air circulation through the cooling unit will decrease its cooling capacity.
To avoid needless and sometimes costly repairs, it is imperative to keep condenser fins clean. This may be accomplished by one of three methods. One method is use of a condenser brush (a longhaired, soft bristle brush) to gently sweep fins of condenser clean. Second method is to use a strong vacuum. The third method is to use C02 or an air hose to blow out condenser. The latter method should only be attempted after normal business hours to avoid dust contamination.
CHECKING WATER BATH
Periodically check water level in water bath. If it is low more water should be added as instructed for maximum product cooling. This dehydration will normally not occur in normal temperate climate zones. With normal humidity the opposite will occur therefore a condensate drain is installed. Any extra water in the water bath will exit the unit via the drain outlet. When unit is building it's first ice bank it is normal to have water overflow the into the drain hose.
30
CHANGING WATER BATH
Drain water bath a minimum of twice a year. This can be accomplished by siphoning water with short hose into bucket or removing over flow standpipe. Once water is drained and ice bank is melted, water bath, water coils, bath walls, tank, etc. should be cleaned.
Fill water bath to the top of the standpipe, (S-657).
ADJUSTMENTS
Periodically C02 regulators should be checked for proper pressure settings and if necessary, adjust as instructed. These settings can be recorded in NOTE section of this manual.
ADJUSTING WATER PRESSURE
If adjustment of water flow rate should be necessary, turn the valve on the Water
Pressure Regulator till the desired PSI is reached.
Check the Flow Control valve on the faucets as well to adjust the flow out of the faucets.
CARBONATION ADJUSTMENT VALVE (S0270)- Optional Accessory
There are plunger valves on both sides of the body of the Carbonation Adjustment Valve which is located inside the water bath area of the unit. These can be adjusted in or out with a flat head screw driver. Closing off the still water side means there is a zero bypass and the Sparkling water has full bubble. Open up the still water side a few turns to bleed in still water which will lessen the volume of bubble in the sparkling water. Adjust till desired results are achieved. See visual detail on next page.
TESTING FOR LEAKS
1. Completely back off adjusting screw on low pressure C02 regulator.
2. Close valve on top C02 cylinder.
3. Wait for 5 minutes or more. If pressure on high pressure gauge decreases excessively, there is leak in the carbonator circuit.
4. All connections including cylinder valve should be coated with a soap solution. If bubbles appear a leak is apparent.
S. Always be sure that the low pressure adjusting screw is completely backed off before testing carbonator circuit for leaks. Otherwise, gas going into syrup tanks would cause this high pressure gauge needle to balance with pressure in syrup tanks, which would be a false indication of a leak in the carbonator circuit.
6. After it has been determined that there are no leaks in the carbonator circuit, open
C02 cylinder valve and adjust low pressure regulator to 15 psi. Allow enough time for the syrup tanks to fill completely with gas, (5 minutes or longer).
7. Next, completely back off low-pressure regulator adjusting screw, and if gauge needle of low-pressure regulator commence to move downward, there is leak in the low-pressure circuit. Check all connections with a soap solution, paying particular attention to syrup tank covers. If low pressure gauge needle remains stationary, there is no leak.

32
CHAPTER V
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
This chapter describes service and maintenance procedures to be performed on SCR units and related components.
PERIODIC INSPECTION AND CLEANING
Daily:
1. If Sparkling water no longer has any bubble, check the CO2 tank and pressures. It is likely the CO2 is empty or at a lower pressure than the water pressure. Replace the CO2.
2. If the Sparkling water side “gases out” (water flow is interrupted by a spitting of gas) and or the Still water side has a very low flow, check the water filter system. It is likely the filters are clogging with debris and restricting water flow (the needle in the gauge on the filter system will be in the red zone when water is called). In this instance CO2 pressure is stronger than water pressure and over comes th e water which produces a “gas out” situation. Replace the water filters and properly flush the new ones.
1. Check the C02 gas supply. If cylinder pressure is below 500 P.S.I., replace the cylinder.
NOTE: Readings should be taken at normal room temperature, approximately 70 degrees “F” and above. If C02 cylinder is stored in a walk -in refrigerator, the P.S.I. indicator will read below 500 psi even when cylinder is full.
2. Check the C02 gas pressure supplying the carbonator and syrup tanks. These pressures should not change. If a change occurs repeatedly, contact your local service agency. It is suggested to make a comment about this occurrence in NOTE SECTION of manual.
If an odd smell occurs in the sparkling water side, replace the CO2 tank with a new one. The CO2 can be old or contaminated.
3. Clean the beverage dispensing area.
5. Remove and clean nozzles and all exposed areas on valves.
6. Wipe exterior of unit with moist towel and buff dry. Stainless cleans well with carbonated water.
7. Check the water filter and water pressure.
Weekly:
1. Check all C02 gas connections for leaks.
2. Check condenser coil for obstructions or dirt.
33
Monthly:
1. Clean condenser fins or filter to make sure the refrigeration unit has adequate airflow.
2. Inspect components of cooling unit water bath for cleanliness.
4. Check entire system for leaks or damaged components. Repair as necessary.
5. Check the inlet water lines, if any discoloration such as green or black can be seen they system should be sanitized.
CR-UC2 CABINET MAINTENANCE
Periodically wash all external surfaces of CR-UC2 cabinet to remove dust, rinse with clean water, then wipe dry with a clean soft cloth. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE TYPE
CLEANERS.
CR-2 CABINET MAINTENANCE
The CR-2 exterior finish is a mirrored stainless steel. Windex cleans it nicely without leaving behind streaks. Wipe the top and louvers clean of dust. DO NOT USE
ABRASIVE TYPE CLEANERS OR SCRUB PADS.
CLEANING CONDENSER COIL
IMPORTANT: Air circulation through the condenser coil is required to cool the compressor. Air is drawn in through grills on the top of the cooling unit, through condenser coil and exhausted out grills on the top of unit. Restricting air circulation through the cooling unit will decrease its cooling capacity.
NOTE: Cleaning condenser coil should be done during non-use periods.
1. Unplug refrigeration unit power cord from electrical socket.
2. Remove service panels.
3. Vacuum or use a soft brush to clean fins of condenser coil. Use low-pressure compressed air or C02 gas to blow through condenser fins. This should only be performed after normal business hours to prevent dust contamination. A damp cloth on backside of condenser coil will prevent some dust contamination
4. Replace service panels. the Crysalli unit’s power cord in electrical socket and turn back on.
34
CHECKING / CHANGING WATER BATH
Semi-Annually check water level in water bath. If it is low, more water should be added for maximum product cooling. Before adding more water, water bath and ice bank should be checked for excessive mineral deposit build up.
NOTE: The water in water bath should be changed and all components in water bath should be cleaned as often as necessary to keep it clean. A convenient time to perform this operation is when the system is being sanitized.
1. Unplug refrigeration unit power cord from electrical socket.
2. Remove lid from unit.
3. Look down into water bath (if necessary, use flashlight) and inspect water bath, ice bank and all components for cleanliness. Water, ice bank and all components should be clear and free of foreign particles. If ice bank is clear of foreign particles, it does not have to be melted down. Proceed to step 10, if foreign particles are present in the ice bank, proceed to step 4.
4. Siphon out water with short hose or pull out over flow standpipe.
5. Allow ice bank to melt. WARM NOT HOT water may be used to speed melting.
CAUTION: Never use an ice pick or other sharp instruments to remove ice from evaporator coil. Such practice can result in puncture to the refrigeration circuit.
6. Use fiber brush and carefully clean mineral deposit from all components.
8. Wash evaporator coil with a mild soap solution. Copper cleans well with mild solution of citric acid (1 cup of citric acid for 2 gallons of water). Stainless steel cleans well with carbonated water. Then rinse with clean water.
9. Rinse out water bath with clean water until water running out of siphon hose is clean.
9. Insert standpipe in drain hole
10. Fill water bath to top of standpipe.
11. Replace lid.
12. Plug refrigeration unit power cord in electrical socket.
35
WATER PUMP MAINTENANCE ( RECOMMEND THIS BE DONE BY A TRAINED SERVICE
TECH)
Warning: The water pump inlet strainer screen must be inspected and serviced at least once a year under normal circumstances of after any disruptions (plumbing work, earthquake, etc.), to the water supply systems that might cause clogged flow of water through system. Water pump with no screen or a defective screen in the strainer would allow foreign particles into water system and create a health hazard.
1. Unplug power cord from electrical socket.
2. Shut off plain water supply to water pump by closing shutoff valves in water supply line.
3. Shut off CO2 supply to CR-UC# by closing shutoff valve on CO2 cylinder
4. Remove lid from unit.
5. Gain access to water bath.
6. Pull up on carbonator tank relief valve to relieve CO2 pressure from tank.
7. Go to carbonator motor “Y” strainer and remove screen retainer.
8. Pull screen retainer and water strainer screen out of water pump port.
9. Clean any sediment from screen retainer and water pump port.
10. Inspect water strainer screen for holes, restrictions, corrosion, and other damage. A water strainer screen should always be used, otherwise particles could damage pump and foul the double check valve.

CARBONATOR MAINTENANCE SAME AS WP
1. Unplug refrigeration unit power cord from electrical socket.
2. Remove lid from unit.
3. Look down into water bath (if necessary, use flashlight) and inspect carbonator tank for leak. Air bubbles will arise from place of leak, if leak is below surface of water. If leak is above surface of water soap bubbles should be used to find any leak.
4. Shut off plain water supply to water pump by closing shutoff valve in water supply line.
5. Shut off C02 supply to refrigerating unit by closing shutoff valve on C02 cylinder.
6. Pull up on carbonator tank relief to relieve C02 pressure from tank.
7. Eliminate leak, tighten bad connections, or replace defective Probe assembly, water double check valve, (S-20), gas single check valve, (S-22), or valve relief, (S-215).
8. Service check valves as outlined in SERVICING CHECK VALVES.
9. Reassemble as necessary.
10. Replace lid.
11. Plug refrigeration unit power cord in electrical socket.
12. Turn on plain water supply to water pump by opening shutoff valves in water supply line.
13. Turn on C02 supply to refrigerating unit by opening shutoff valve on C02 cylinder.
14. Activate all systems as outlines in CHAPTER III.
SERVICING CHECK VALVES SHOULD BE DONE BY TECH
It is not recommended to disassemble the check valves unless it is absolutely necessary. As stated before this necessity would be prompted by earthquakes, disruption of water service, etc.
The symptoms of a malfunctioning check valve would be:
Water check valve Carbonation throughout water supply, i.e., basins, toilets, etc. or an activated vent valve.
Gas check valve Water in C02 cylinder, water escaping from high pressure C02 regulator, (S-101), during cylinder change and possibly water in syrup containers. If any of the above symptoms occur proceed with the following:
1. Disconnect water line from double check valve outlet. Remove double check from water pump outlet fitting.
2. Remove one check valve from other, then disassemble each check valve as shown.
3. Wipe each part with clean lint-free cloth. Inspect each part, especially the ball, for burr s, nicks, corrosion, deterioration, and other damage. Discard ball “O” -ring, (S-
13), and any damaged or suspicious parts and replace with new parts during reassembly.
4. Reassemble each check valve as shown.
37
ALWAYS INSTALL NEW “O” RING, (S -13).
5. Assemble check valves together as shown.

3. Install full C02 cylinder and connect high pressure C02 regulator. See installation procedure in CHAPTER II.
MAKE SURE C02 CYLINDER IS POSITIONED IN UPRIGHT POSITION AND
FASTENED WITH SAFETY CHAIN. ALWAYS OPEN C02 VALVE COMPLETELY OR
UNTIL BACK SEATED DURING OPERATION. WHEN BOTTLE IS EMPTY ALWAYS
CLOSE VALVE ASSEMBLY COMPLETELY.
CHANGING WATER FILTER CARTRIDGE
Follow manufacturer's instructions for water filter, note importance of properly flushing filters.
ADJUSTMENTS
HIGH PRESSURE C02 REGULATOR
The high-pressure C02 regulator will have two gauges that extend above and to the side of the bell housing screw area. The P.S.I. gauge will show graduated indications up to
3000 psi and be the gauge the farthest from the C02 cylinder connection. This gauge will normally have a Red area indicating 500 psi to 0 psi. This gauge will be used to check volume of liquid in the C02 cylinder. The other gauge will show regulated pressure that will be delivered to the CR-UC# carbonation system. This gauge can be indicated from
0-160 psi up to 0-300 psi. By turning the high-pressure regulator adjustment screw clockwise we will increase pressure supplied to our carbonator, which will be indicated on this gauge. To lower pressure to carbonation system it is recommended that the adjustment screw be turned counter clockwise several full turns and then the relief valve,
(S-215), be lifted lowering pressure in carbonating system, now readjust. When adjusting
C02 high-pressure regulator a setting of 55-75 psi is recommended.

SANITIZING PROCEDURES
Your local health department rules and general area cleanliness should determine the frequency at which the unit should be sanitized.
EQUIPMENT REQUIRED:
When using an Everpure Water filter system, use the JT Flushing/Sanitizing Cartridge (EV9608-00) and
Plug, instructions included with cartridge.
1. Fill JT cartridge with sanitizing agent and install into the last position in filter manifold, plug front position with filter plug.
2. Turn the water back on and the CO2 off.
3. Pull valves on Crysalli to draw water and sanitizer through into another bucket.
4. Flush each line for at least 1 minute (hold both faucets open and dispense into a bucket) until water consistency and clarity changes back (flush until free of detergent), continue pulling water for to thoroughly flush out.
5. Turn water back off and replace JT cartridge and Plug with new Everpure water filters and flush them.
6. Dry the JT Cartridge and replace back in storage for use next time.
Manual cleaning (to be done by service tech):
1. Stainless Steel containers (product tanks), or large volume container.
2. CO2 Supply if applicable (Same as used with dispensing unit).
3. Cleaning Agent.
4. Sanitizing Solution.
5. Phenolphthalein.
NOTE: One recommended cleaning agent and sanitizing agent is manufactured by:
MT. HOOD CHEMICAL CORP.
4444 N.W. Yeon Avenue
Portland, Oregon 97210
Trade names are:
CROWN - 12.5% SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE BLEACH
Use STAR at 18 oz. per 1 gallon of water yields 2% Sodium Hydroxide Solution.
1. Visually inspect valve by removing nozzle and inspecting nozzle and valve cavity. Clean nozzle with cleaning agent, then sanitizing solution, then with potable water. Inspect valve cavity and if dirty clean with soft bristle brush. Clean exteriors of valve with a soft clothe and warm water. Replace valve nozzle then go to step #3.
2. Disconnect water inlet line at a point in the exposed tubing. Leaving enough length to place in a bucket.
3. Put inlet tubing in a bucket full of water and sanitizer.
4. Turn unit on and pull product from both valves into another bucket to discard.
5. Run sanitizer through until empty.
6. Replace bucket with clean rinse water and run through system.
7. Reconnect inlet water line and turn the water back on.
8. Taste the beverage to verify that there is no off taste.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
IMPORTANT: Only qualified personnel should service the SCR unit and components.
WARNING: To avoid personal injury and or property damage, always disconnect electrical power, shut off plain water and CO2 supplies before starting any repairs. If repairs are to be made to the carbonated water system, bleed carbonated water system pressure before proceeding. If repairs are to be made to syrup system, remove quick disconnects from syrup tanks, or remove QCD from BIB, then bleed system pressure before proceeding.
