2.0 DESCRIPTION
OF THE M20 SYSTEM
2.1 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Draught Master (DM) Modular 20 (M20) is a draught equipment system using PET (polyethylene terepht-
halate) kegs used in Europe since 2011. The kegs are available in a 20L. size and suitable for recycling. The
assembly includes a Modular 20 unit (keg module), which is a pressurized plastic vessel (air working pressure
2.8 – 3.0 bar) supported by an external frame/structure that is designed to facilitates the beer keg.
The system employs a combination of equipment such as cleaning equipment and pressure source that provide
the necessary cleaning and pressure possibility to pressurize the keg module in GF PP Polymer, where the
20L keg container containing carbonized liquids, such as beer is inserted. Here the beer it driven through in-
sulated polymer pythons parsing a beer cooler and forward to tap or taps in a serving area for serving customers.
The steel kegs and couplers are replaced by keg modules and the CO2 equipment (cylinder + regulators) by
a compressor. The compressor is allocated in a semiautomatic cleaning module which allows the bar sta to
clean himself.
2.2 THE SYSTEM
The advantages of the system are:
• Better quality of beer for Consumer.
• No CO2 bottles.
• Light one-way kegs.
• Less waste of beer.
• Long shelf life (6 months before opening, 31 days once
opened).
• Lower environmental impact. This is coupled to the
Draught Master system either in the cellar or in under
bar outlets.
The system uses a bespoke compressed air system that is also an integrated cleaning system. The pressure
driven cleaning system uses advanced technology tracking the line cleaning activity in the outlet and when
the maximum length of time between cleans elapses then the system will stop dispensing and the screen on
the cleaning unit will flash to indicate this. Only after the lines have been cleaned will it then allow product
to be dispensed. The system does have a postpone button which can be used once only each time; this is
for when the total time elapsed and it can be extended by 1 day. The cleaning unit will require a permanent
water supply. A drain tube is fitted to the cleaning unit, so this will need to be either routed to a drain or
a suitable container such as a 5 lt. container. The cleaning unit can be located away from the keg modules
(up to 4 m away through the extension pipe connection). If the cleaning module is located next to the keg
module then place it on the left side as the water/compressed air outlet is situated on the right side of the
cleaning unit.

1. CLEANING PROCEDURE
1 Place a sign at the tapping point that indicates that a cleaning cycle is in progress.
2 Open the water inlet valve.
3 Press the Clean button ( ).
4 At the tapping point, open the taps one by one.
5 The pipes are emptied of beer and detergent starts to emerge. It is green. Close the tap and open the
next one. Repeat this procedure for all taps. Repeat the procedure from the first tap until the colour
of the detergent is purple (it may be necessary to repeat the procedure more than once for an indivi-
dual tap). NOTE During the cleaning procedure, the container for the mixture is cyclically filled
and the flow of detergent is stopped for approx. 40 seconds as it fills. This is a normal part of the
procedure – do not close the tap and the cleaning procedure will continue.
6 When the detergent changes colour and becomes purple at all taps and the display flashes,
wait at least 20 minutes before moving on to phase 2.
7 Move on to phase 2.

SAFETY STANDARDS
If the detergent accidentally comes into contact with the eyes, rinse immediately
with plenty of water and, if necessary, consult a doctor. If possible, show them the
label / Wear protective clothing, gloves and a mask to protect the face and eyes /
The liquid detergent and its container are to be treated as toxic waste.
1 Press the rinse button ( ). This mode stops the flow of detergent and rinses the lines with
water. This rinsing procedure must be carried out accurately to ensure that every residue of
detergent is removed before moving on to the next step. Allow the water to flow until it is
completely clean and transparent.
2 The display flashes when the rinsing procedure is finished. Move on to phase 3.
NOTE The rinsing procedure can also be used separately to rinse the system with water
before the complete cleaning cycle.
REPLACING THE DETERGENT CONTAINER
