SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

This section describes service and maintenance procedures to be performed on the Unit.

IMPORTANT: Only qualified personnel should service internal components or electrical wiring.

WARNING: Disconnect electrical power to the Unit to prevent personal injury before attempting any internal maintenance. Only qualified personnel should service the internal components or electrical wiring.

PREPARING UNIT FOR SHIPPING, STORING, OR RELOCATING

CAUTION: Before shipping, storing, or relocating this Unit, the syrup systems must be

sanitized and all sanitizing solution must be purged from the syrup systems. All water must also be purged from the plain and carbonated water systems. A freezing ambient

environment will cause residual water in the Unit to freeze resulting in damage to internal components.

HOOD AND FRONT PANEL REMOVAL

(see Figure 5)

HOOD REMOVAL

CAUTION: Do not place or store anything on top of the Unit.

Loosen screw on top of hood, then lift hood straight up and off Unit.

FRONT ACCESS PANEL REMOVAL

1.Remove drip tray from the Unit.

2.Remove two screws securing the front access panel to the Unit.

3.Pull the front access panel down and out to remove.

PERIODIC INSPECTION

1.Check the refrigeration condenser coil for obstructions and dirt. DO NOT place objects in front of or on top of the hood. Restricting circulating air in or out of the Unit will decrease its cooling efficiency.

2.Check the dispensing valves for dripping that indicates leaking and repair as necessary.

ADJUSTMENTS

ADJUSTING CO2 REGULATORS

WARNING: CO2 displaces oxygen. Strict attention must be observed in the prevention of CO2 (carbon dioxide) gas leaks in the entire CO2 and soft drink system. If a CO2 gas leak is suspected, particularly in a small area, immediately ventilate the contaminated area before

attempting to repair the leak. Personnel exposed to high concentration of CO2 gas will experience tremors which are followed rapidly by loss of consciousness and suffocation.

R-134A specifications

Cornelius R-134A is a refrigerant commonly used in various cooling and air conditioning applications. It belongs to the hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) family and has become a favored alternative to many ozone-depleting substances. Unlike its predecessors, R-12, which has been phased out due to its detrimental effects on the ozone layer, R-134A offers a more environmentally friendly solution, albeit still having global warming potential.

One of the main features of R-134A is its favorable thermodynamic properties. It exhibits a low boiling point of approximately -26.3°C (-15.3°F), making it suitable for various refrigeration applications, including automotive air conditioning, commercial cooling systems, and domestic refrigerators. Its efficiency is regarded as superior, allowing for quick heat absorption and dissipation. This efficiency translates into energy savings, ultimately benefiting both consumers and manufacturers.

R-134A also boasts a relatively high vaporization heat, demonstrating its effectiveness in heat transfer processes. The low toxicity and non-flammability of R-134A further enhance its appeal, as it poses minimal risk during handling and application. This characteristic makes R-134A safer for technicians and users compared to older refrigerants, which presented higher health hazards.

Within modern technologies, R-134A plays a crucial role in both chiller systems and heat pump applications. It is compatible with various lubricants, allowing manufacturers to utilize R-134A in existing systems with minimal modifications. However, it is essential to use the correct type of oil, as mixing different types can lead to system inefficiencies and potential failure.

Despite its advantages, R-134A has a global warming potential of around 1,430 times greater than carbon dioxide, prompting the refrigerant industry to look for alternatives. Newer refrigerants, such as R-1234yf, offer lower environmental impact, driving a shift towards more sustainable options.

In conclusion, Cornelius R-134A remains a widely used refrigerant known for its efficiency, safety, and effectiveness in heat transfer. While it has played a significant role in the refrigeration and air conditioning industries, the ongoing search for eco-friendly alternatives highlights the need for continued innovation and adherence to environmental standards.
