4.1 Assembly of Countertop to Cabinet

4.0 Installation

Identify the four depressions on the top of the base cabinet where the

four feet of the cooler will locate. Lift the cooler and placed it on top of the cabi-

net, aligning the feet of the cooler to the previously located depressions.

4.2 Positioning the Cooler

There are some precautions to take when positioning and using the

PureWaterCooler™. See the items in Figure 4a and 4b. In addition, the

cooler must be located near the supply water. Flexible 1/4-inch plastic tubing

may be used for the feed connection. Normally, this connection should be

within 25-feet of the cooler.

Important Note: Do not cover air intake vent as this will prevent proper chilling

from occurring.

The electronic water leak detection system is installed in the rear left

had corner of the cooler. If a water leak should occur inside the cooler and wa-

ter collects in the leak probe tray the power will automatically be shut off.

When power is cut off due to water leak:

a. Un-plug the cooler and remove the left side panel by removing the 2

screws and sliding the panel back .

b. Remove any excess water in the bottom, lift and wipe the detection

probes dry. Replace all removed components.

c. Re-connect power to reset the leak controller in the unit and check for

leaks.

8.1 Electronic Leak Detection system

8.0 Leak Detection System

There are 2 leak detection systems installed in the cooler, one is me-

chanical, mounted in the lower cabinet in the rear of the filter compartment ; the

other is electronic and mounted on the LHS rear of dispensing unit. (see diag.11)

If water leaks to the base of the cooler cabinet, the mechanical leak detector

valve will close and shut off the feed water to the filters and the cooler.

To access the mechanical leak valve open front door of lower cabinet and locate

the leak valve near the rear of the cabinet RHS.

a. Remove any excess water in the bottom compartment

b. Reset the leak valve by replacing expanded activation cartridge with

New cartridge (a spare activation sponge is supplied with the cooler)

c. Reset leak valve to open/ON position by pressing lever down

(see Figure 10)

NOTE: It is not necessary to remove the plastic wrapping from the replace-

ment cartridge– install with bevel side down.

Figure 4b Installation Precautions

Do not place cooler next to

oven or dishwasher. Keep

out of direct sunlight.

Be sure to use correct power

voltage. Plug power cord

directly into electrical socket.

4. Cooler Water Connections

When received, the water connections on the back of both the cooler

and the cabinet have color coded tube sections with red shipping caps on them.

These tube sections must be removed before making water connections. To

remove the tube sections see Figure 7. The 1/4” plastic tubing should be used

for making the Feed Water. If hard copper tubing is used for the Feed Water

and Drain connections, the bulkhead fittings must be changed to a metal fitting.

Figure 5 Saddle Valve

4.4 Feed Water Connections

To connect the feed water, use the supplied self-piercing saddle valve to con-

nect to the cold water supply line under the sink. Attach the 1/4” tubing to the compres-

sion fitting on the side of the valve. Clamp the saddle valve over the copper or plastic

feed line (cold water only). Turn the handle on the valve until the needle stem pierces

the tube. Then retract the needle 1-2 turns to start water flow. See Figure 5.

If the cabinet has a filtration system installed, connect the feed water tubing to

the lower bulkhead located on the rear of the cabinet. Plumb from the upper bulkhead

on the cabinet to the feed water bulkhead on the rear of the cooler using the supplied

stem elbow and tubing assembly.

If the cabinet does not have a filtration system installed, simply connect the

feed water to the bulkhead on the rear of the cooler.

7.0 Filter Replacement

The filter elements must be replaced at regular intervals to maintain the

quality of the water.

The “F” odel 9500F has 2-stages of mechanical filtration, the “R” model

9500R has 2-stages of mechanical filtration plus additional RO membrane. The fil-

ters are accessed through the lower front door panel. A 1st stage 5-micron sediment

filter and a 2nd stage activated carbon filter. Both stages 1 & 2 must be replaced

every 6-12 months. For the “R” version the RO membrane (stage 3) is replaced

every 2-3 years.

7.1 Sediment and Carbon Filter Replacement Procedure

a. Unplug the cooler from the wall socket.

b. Access the filter compartment by opening lower door panel

c, Close Service ball valve (blue handle) by turning valve handle perpendicular to

flow tubing.

d. To remove the sediment and carbon filter cartridge, rotate the filter cartridge

1/4 turn counter clock -wise and pull down.

e. Install a new carbon and sediment filter in the indicated positions.

Use these replacement filters for PWC 9500F

1st stage Sediment filter, P/N TF-4113

2nd stage Carbon Block filter, P/N TF-4115

g. Plug in the power cord. Press cold dispense button and Let water run until it is

clear.

7.2 RO membrane Replacement

With the cooler unplugged and the filter compartment open, disconnect the

3 tubes of the RO filter housing. (see sect. 4.5 Quick Connect Fittings) Remove the

RO housing from the filter clips. Remove the cap from the housing by unscrewing it.

Using a pair of pliers, remove the RO element from the housing by grasping the

tube end and pulling it out. Use RO filter replacement P/N ma-4205 (100gpd TFC

membrane). Insert the element into the housing with the double “o”-ring end going

in first, toward the bottom of the housing. ake sure the “o”-rings are seated. Re-

place the cap. Reconnect the tubing and replace housing in filter clips. Replace

cover and plug in cooler. Flush 2 gallons of clean water out of membrane before

drinking to remove preservative in the RO membrane.

5.2 Tank Drain

Occasionally, it may be desirable to drain both tanks, the hot tank and

chilling chamber. There are drain plugs on the back of the cooler. See Figure

8. First, make sure all power is off. The cooler must be moved so that the wa-

ter can be drained into a container to collect the water (about 1 1/4 gal). Re-

move the cover on top of the hot and cold water drain.

Figure 9 Tank Drain

6.0 Filter Monitor Operation

When water is dispensed, the green indicator light will blink. When the indi-

cator light starts to blink yellow, this indicates that 90% of the filter life has been

used and that the filters should be changed soon.

When the filters are changed, reset the filter monitor by removing and re-

placing the battery. The filter monitor sensor and battery is located in the filter

compartment. The watch style battery is partially exposed and can be removed

by pulling on the battery with finger nails or pliers. Battery should be replaced

every year or 2nd filter change, whichever is first.

4.5 Quick Connect Fittings

The standard tubing connections on the PureWaterCooler™ are of

Quick Connect O-ring seal design and manufacture. Use the tubing and follow

the instructions below to make the connections. If you cut the tubing make sure

it is a square cut, fits squarely in the fitting, and seals properly.
