Electric Hook-up

1)The electric ratings for your brewer are printed on its nameplate. Typical electric ratings are:

P300, P400, RAP300, RAP400

 

Optional

120/208V, 3.8kW, 18A or 120/240V

5.0kW, 21A, 1 phase

Standard

120/208V, 5.0kW, 24A or 120/240V

6.6kW, 28A, 1 phase

RAPS300, RAPS400

 

Standard

120/208V, 4.4KW 21A or 120/240V, 5.6KW 24A, 1 phase

If the brewer includes the three heater tank option C21A, the ratings will be different. Always see the nameplate for correct ratings.

2)The brewer should be connected to its own circuit with a fused disconnect switch or a circuit breaker near the brewer.

3)Attach the appropriately sized cord to the brewer with a cord grip for the 1 1/2" electric input opening. The cord may enter through the rear or bottom on the left side of the brewer. Use an oil resistant cord such as type SO, SOO, SAO, STOO, SEO, SJO, SJOO, SJTO, SJTOO, SJEO, HSO, HSOO, HSJO, or HSJOO. Alternatively, flexible conduit and type THHN wires may be used. Use only copper conductors.

4)Standard connection is 1 phase 3 wire. Connect the two lines to L1 and L2 on the terminal block. If the brewer is wired for three phase, a lug, L3, is provided on the terminal block. A neutral line must be connected to the N terminal.

WARNING

Never use the ground conductor as a neutral. This could cause electrocution.

5)The body of the brewer must be grounded. A ground lug is provided for this purpose.

Start-up

1)Turn on the water supply to the brewer. Check for leaks.

2)Turn on the electric supply. The brewer will begin to fill.

3)Replace the front access panel.

4)Once the brewer is full, it will take 15 to 35 minutes to heat. The water hot light will turn on when up to temperature.

5)Insert the brew baskets and place a shuttle or airpot under the baskets. Brew at least one batch from each side. Check the level in the container to be sure the brew volume is correct. Remember that when using coffee, the level will be lower. Do this for both batch sizes when provided. The water must be hot to check the levels. If adjustments are needed, see the adjustments section of this manual.
