PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
• HydroChill is for internal use.
• Keep away from water jets.
• Always connect the HydroChill
to a water main that supplies
wholesome (cat 1) drinking water.
• Before rst use, the HydroChill
must be sanitised by an
authorised technician.
• After installation, ensure that the unit is not resting on the power cable.
• Check that the unit is level and that it is resting on a surface with sufcient
load bearing capacity, in an environment that is suitable for its size and use.
• Before any maintenance or cleaning operation is carried out, remove the
mains plug from the socket or disconnect the electrical power supply.
• Ensure that the product is not sited close to sources of heat.
• To guarantee adequate ventilation, leave at least 10cm clearance envelope of
space around the HydroChill.
• Install the HydroChill in a clean, dry, well-ventilated environment. The
HydroChill is designed to function in environments with a temperature range
of between 5°C and 32°C - Climate Class N.
• Take care not to damage the cooling uid circuit, it is lled with R290 gas
, which is highly ammable. It is essential to ensure that the tubes of the
refrigerant circuit are not damaged.
• Ensure that it is possible to disconnect the electrical power supply either by
removing the mains plug or via a double pole isolation switch with a contact
separation of at least 3mm in all poles.
• The Appliance must be protected by an RCD or RCBO.
• Check that the voltage shown on the rating plate corresponds to the
voltage being supplied at the installation site.
• The HydroChill must not be cleaned with a water jet. Do not position other
electrical equipment in the immediate vicinity of the HydroChill.
• Turn off the main water inlet isolation valve if the HydroChill is not to be used
for a long period.
• Keep the areas surrounding the HydroChill dry, to avoid the risk of slipping.
• CO2: You can have serious health problems if breathing air containing
concentrations of CO2up to 15000ppm (1.5%) for more than 10 minutes.
Proper ventilation must be provided to ensure that, in case of escape,
concentrations of CO2remain below this level.
• If the supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a Zip service
technician or similarly qualied person in order to avoid a hazard.
• Do not use extension leads or adapters.
• This appliance is not intended to be used by persons (including children
!

• To connect the HydroChill to the
mains water supply, always use a new
set of connectors, pipes & ttings.
• Mains water pressure limits, see
Technical data page 11.
• Check that the mains pressure is
between 2.5 bar and 3,5 bar.
• To enhance the quality of the sparkling
water dispensed, an incoming
ow rate in excess of 3.5 l/min is
recommended.
• If the water pressure is higher than 3,5
bar it is necessary to install a pressure
reducer.

INSTALLATION
Electrical connection
• The connections must comply with
local regulations.
• The HydroChill must be earthed.
• Connect the power cable (1) to a
mains socket.
• Turn the HydroChill on by selecting
the “I” position on the power switch
(2).
• The ice-bank pump, compressor
and fan are now activated.
• Dispense sparkling water (4) in
order to release any air in the
circuit and to allow the pump to ll
the carbonator with water.
• After around 1-2 minutes, the
sparkling water pump stops.
Thermostat
• The thermostat (3) is set in the
maximum position to control the
ice bank.
• To avoid the formation of ice in the
bank, turn the thermostat screw at
least 1/4” anti-clockwise.
• In the case of freezing of the water
circuit, turn off the unit and keep it
off for at least 12 hours.

INSTALLATION
Installing the CO2cylinder (sparkling models)
(Not supplied by Zip)
!
WARNING (also see precautions
pages 3 & 4)
• The area must be properly
ventilated.
• The CO2cylinder must be used
in a vertical position, and must be
restrained safely, to prevent it falling
over.
• Double check that the cylinder
is the correct CO2gas for this
application :E290 food-grade
carbon dioxide.
• Once the unit is connected to the
mains water and electricity supplies
, install the CO2cylinder.
• Attach the regulator & CO2pipe to
the cylinder valve.
• Insert the CO2inlet tube from
the cylinder into the tting (1). To
be sure to remove any air in the
hydraulic circuit and to achieve a
good level of carbonation, before
opening the valve on the CO2
cylinder pull the ring of the remote
safety valve (2) until water comes
out of it.
• When the cylinder is open, to
increase or decrease the level
of carbonation of the water, you
need to adjust the screw (3) on the
pressure reducer.
• Turning it clockwise increases the
level of carbonation.
• We recommend that you do not
exceed 4 bar of pressure (4).
• To achieve a good level of
carbonation, you need to wait until
the water is sufciently cold – i.e. at
least one hour after installation.

• All of the cylinders must be tted with a
valve protector cap, which must be tightly
secured at all times when the cylinder is
not in use.
• The cylinders must be handled with care. It
is essential to avoid:
Clashes with other cylinders or surfaces;
dropping the cylinders; or
subjecting them to mechanical stress.
• All of the above may compromise their
integrity and resistance.
• The cylinders must not be lifted by the
cap, or dragged, rolled or slid along the
oor even if only being moved for short
distances.
• An appropriate hand cart or other suitable
means of transport should be used.
• Do not use magnetic lifters, slings or rope
to lift the cylinder.

If the HydroChill is switched off for a long period of time
(e.g. more than a weekend), run water through the chilled
water outlet for at least 5 minutes before consumption.
Caution Water will drip as the cartridge is removed.
Do not tilt the cartridge as water may spill from it if
tilted.
• Isolate the water supply.
• Unpack replacement cartridge and remove sanitary
cap, write today’s date where shown on the label.
Avoid touching the lter o-rings and lter opening as
this may cause bacterial contamination of the cartridge.
• Align the front cartridge label to the left (as shown in
the “insert lter” diagram adjacent), and push the new
cartridge up into the lter head.
• Turn the cartridge a quarter turn anticlockwise until
it comes to a complete stop and locks, with the front
label facing forward.
• Turn on the water supply.
• Flush the lter by dispensing chilled or ambient water
for 5 mins.
• When completed, clean up and dispose of old cartridge

!
WARNING
The light emitted by the ultraviolet lamp may cause serious burns to the
eyes and skin.
Installation, repair and maintenance shall only be performed by personnel
qualied to work on UV products.
Sterilizing UV lter
• Alongside the external lter, it is also possible to t a UV-C (λ=254 nm)
sterilizing lter on the dispensing point.
• The UV-C light emitted by the special 4W mercury vapour lamp is lethal for all
micro-organisms (bacteria, viruses, mould, algae, etc.); for this reason, water
treated with the UV-C sterilizer will be micro-biologically pure.
Technical data
• Material AISI 304 and quartz tube
• Power rating 24V AC
• Power consumption 4Wh
• Maximum capacity of the lamp 9.000 h (max 12 months)
The UV sterilizer complies with European quality and safety guidelines.
