1. Introduction:
Thank you for purchasing this LINDR
product.
2. Description of the cooler:
The beverage dispensing device is
designed for professional cooling of
beverage, especially for process
cooling in beer or wine production.
Cooling of lager tanks, fermentation
vats and other technologies.
This dispensing system is the elite
among professional undercounter
coolers.
The Lindr modern compressor cooling
unit uses input energy and transforms it
directly into cooling, ensuring proper
beer cooling at minimum energy drain.
Cooling transfer is done using water or
glycol. If the thermostat is set to max.,
the device can accumulate a large
amount of energy in the form of an ice
bank. The time required to accumulate
this energy is approx. 90-120 min.,
depending on the initial water
temperature and the ambient
temperature. Lindr cooling technology is
45 % more powerful than its electric
input power.
The cooler is equipped with an
aftercooling pump which also stirs the
water bath to increase the effectiveness
of the heat exchange. The cooler body
is built from galvanised sheet metal with
a plastic surface finish. The materials
used meet the strictest hygienic
standards and guarantee long service
life of the cooler.

13. Putting into operation:
The device requires professional installation by a qualified firm including training of
the operator (owner) and operating staff.
1. Interconnect the cooled water circuit. Insulate the tubing.
WARNING: The reverse line (reverse) must be submerged under the
water level in the tank.
2. Fill the tank with clean water or glycol in accordance with point 15.
3. Connect the cooler to the power mains.
4. Plug the pump cable into the socket on the control panel.
5. Check that all the joints and connections are sufficiently tightened.
WARNING: If you discover a leak, turn off the device. Fix any leaks
found on the tubing. If a leak is found inside the device or you are
unsure how to proceed, contact a service centre.
6. Set the desired temperature on the thermostat –see point 12.
7. Turn on the device using the main switch.
8. The beverage is now cooling.
9. Check the water level in the tank and refill if needed.
WARNING: BEFORE STARTING THE DEVICE, FILL THE TANK WITH CLEAN
WATER. DO NOT USE ANY CHEMICAL AGENTS. COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE
COOLING SYSTEM. FOR SPECIAL APPLICATIONS REQUIRING COOLING TO SUB-ZERO
TEMPERATURES, IT IS POSSIBLE TO USE AN ECO-FRIENDLY ANTIFREEZE MIXTURE
BASED ON PROPYLENE GLYCOL.

16. How to Work with speed fitings:
Speed fitings Installation
Grasp the speed fiting and
insert the hose all the way
inside the speed fiting body
(ca. 20 mm). The end of the
hose must be straight, so
that it plugs fully into the
coupling. If the hose will not
go in, moisten the end of the
hose.
Speed fiting Removal
Hold the grey ring tight against
the body of the speed fiting and
pull out the hose.
WARNING: Hoses must not be pressurised during removal.
WARNING: If you do not hold the grey ring but pull at the hose,
the rapid coupling will cut even deeper into the hose.

17. Environmental protection:
This product must not be disposed of in communal waste.
Electrical waste in the Czech Republic is disposed of within the Rema System.
In countries other than the Czech Republic, waste sorting is subject to local
regulations.
Sorted waste enables recycling and reusing used products and packaging materials. Reuse of
recycled material helps protect the environment from pollution and reduces resource
consumption. Local regulations may regulate the method of disposing household appliances at
local collection points or at the point of sale.
18. Maintenance:
Flush the beverage tubing of the cooler after each use with pressurised water (see
Sanitation by Water). To make flushing easier, use a sanitation adapter according to
your type of keg coupler (not included in standard accessories). The cooler must be
sanitised once every 14 days by a person with chemical engineering qualifications.
The condenser must be checked for cleanliness every month. Any dirt found must be
cleaned with compressed air or wiped off. Otherwise, there is a risk of reduced cooling
output or damaging of the cooler.
19. Inspection before every use:
1. Visual check.
2. Water level check.
3. Lead-in cable check.
4. Condenser cleanliness check (in case of excess pollution of the
condenser, clean more frequently than once a month).
Warning: Do not use the device if defects or malfunctions are
found.

ˇ
19
20. Periodic check:
•1x a day: check water level in the tank.
•1x a week: check that the lead-in cable is undamaged and that the plug is
firmly in the socket.
•1x a week: check that the device is not exposed to radiant heat.
•1x a week: check that air circulation is not obstructed.
•1x a month: check the cooling unit's condenser and clean it regularly.
•1x a year: have an engineering inspector check the electrical safety of the device.
21. Condenser cleaning:
The condenser must be cleaned with compressed air and brush 1x a month.
