Converting a Bottled Cooler to POU
(Does not apply to Direct Chill Coolers)
•It takes literally five minutes, using our Conversion Kit
•Remove Bottled Cooler top by unscrewing screws in back
•Place water tank lid from kit on open water tank making sure that the float moves freely
and the 1/4" blue pipe is firmly connected and is guided to the filter bracket Replace
cooler top with POU Lid and fasten with two screws at the back
Sanitising with Buffered Hydrogen Peroxide solution
•Switch power off
•Turn mains water off
•Remove top cover of the cooler to gain access to the water reservoir
•Pour diluted sanitising fluid into the water in the reservoir, wipe all internal surfaces, to
dislodge any Biofilm
•Drain some sanitising fluid through taps
•Sanitise in strict accordance with WHA guidelines using only tested and therefore
endorsed sanitising products
Sanitising a Direct Chill Cooler
•Switch power off
•Turns mains water off
•Remove the Carbon Block Filter and replace with an empty Filter Housing
•Pour the sanitising fluid into the empty Filter Housing
•Turn mains water back on
•Open the taps to flush the sanitising liquid into the tank and pipes
•Leave standing for 10 minutes and then flush through with water to remove all traces of
Sanitising Solution
Warning
•These appliances are provided with refrigerant gas, ISOBUTANE(R-600a).
•The appliance must be transported and moved, taking maximum care to ensure that it is
not excessively struck or shaken. Failure to observe the above rule, could put the appliance
out of service.
•Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure, clear of
obstruction.
•Do not damage the refrigerant circuit. if damage to the refrigerating circuit, with possible
outflow of refrigerating gas, could create risks of explosion caused by external sparks or
flames.
•Do not, on any account, run your appliance if it appears to be damaged.
•In case of damage, contact the Service Centre, ventilate the room where the appliance is
located, and avoid flames or jobs on the appliance.
De-scaling a Hot & Chilled Cooler
(De-scaling automatically sanitises the Boiler)
•Scale is a major problem for Hot Water Tanks in Hard Water areas. A build-up of scale
inside the tank can seriously affect the safety and the performance of the equipment. The
parameters affecting the formation of scale are
•The hardness of the Water
•The temperature of the Hot Water
•The Hot Water consumption
•It is imperative that the Cooler is being de-scaled regularly. It is recommended that de-
scaling is done outside the customers premises
To de-scale
•Turn Power off.
•Drain waterin reservoir through taps, then drain boiler from drain at the back of the cooler
•Remove baffle from cold tank.
•Pour de-scaler into cold tank and allow to gradually feed into the boiler
•Active foaming occurs as a sign that there is scale in the boiler.
•When the foaming stops, all scale should have been removed. This could take 10 to 15
minutes or more.
•Drain descaler out of the boiler
•Fill boiler and cold tank with water (without heating) and drain water out again
•Repeat until all traces of descaler have been removed
•Refill Cooler with water and turn power back on
Connecting a POU Cooler to the mains
•All mains’ connections should be made using a professional Installation Rail (WHA
approved) which includes Copper Compression Fittings, an on/Off Tap, A Pressure
Reducing Valve, a Non-Return Valve and a Waterblock
•Professional Installation Rails are available from a number of suppliers, including AA First.
The AA Installation Rail is available without a Filter (PRAILKIT) for customers wanting to
use their own Filters, or with a Filter (PFRAILKIT).
•Isolate the mains water supply before connecting the Copper Compression Fittings to the
mains
•Connect the Installation Rail to the Copper Compression Fitting
•Connect the Installation Rail to the POU Cooler - which has its power turned off.
•Turn the mains on and check all Push Fit connections and fittings for leaks
•Turn the POU Cooler power on
•Prior to commissioning the Cooler check all mains and electrical connections prior to
commissioning the Equipment
