General Information

Electrical Requirements

The package unit must be installed so that the wir- ing conforms to, and is in accordance with National and Local Electrical Codes. (See Condensing Unit Data Plate for Electrical Specifications.

CAUTION: Do not attempt to operate the condens- ing unit on any other power source than that listed on the unit data plate. See appropriate wiring dia- gram on pages 9, 10 or 11.

Starting The Cooler

Allow the empty utility cooler to operate 24 hours for a settling-out period before use.

Temperature Control

The temperature control is located on the evapo- rator housing. It is factory adjusted to maintain a temperature of approximately 34° F. cut out and 40° F. cut in. Cut out temperatures lower than 34°F. are not advisable as excessive frost may accumu- late on the evaporator.

If excessive frost does accumulate, the unit is operating at too cold a temperature. To defrost the evaporator, turn off the electrical power to the con- densing unit or turn the control to a warmer posi- tion to allow the fan motor to defrost it. The control should then be reset to a temperature that will not ice up the evaporator. A plastic drain hose should be attached to the drain pan of the evaporator and routed through the wall panel. A receptacle should be provided for accumulated condensing water or connect to a building drain facility.

Ventilation Requirements

Air-cooled units must be furnished with sufficent ventilation to maintain their efficiency. The table at right indicates the minimum room size/cubic footage, only the space above the condensing unit can be used. When the room size is below minimum, some type of forced ventilation must be provided.

There should be nothing on or around the machin- ery compartment area which will restrict the flow of room temperature air to the condenser or over the compressor.

Cleaning the Condensing Unit

Inspect the machinery compartment every 60 days. A heavy accumulation of dirt and/or grease on the front of the condensing unit (radiator) must be cleaned off with a stiff brush or vacuum cleaner. Be careful not to bend the aluminum fins on the con- densing unit.

US4KP, US10KP specifications

The Perlick US10KP and US4KP are high-performance commercial draft beer dispensers renowned for their innovative design and advanced technologies. Both models are crafted with the intent of delivering superior performance, reliability, and efficiency, making them ideal choices for bars, restaurants, and other establishments that prioritize quality draft service.

One of the standout features of the Perlick US10KP is its ability to accommodate up to ten 1/2 barrel kegs, allowing users to serve a wide variety of craft beers simultaneously. The US4KP, on the other hand, is designed to hold four 1/2 barrel kegs, making it suitable for smaller venues. Both models boast a durable stainless steel construction, providing resistance to corrosion and ensuring longevity even in the busiest of environments.

A notable technology integrated into these dispensers is the Perlick patented Forward Sealing faucet. This innovation eliminates the traditional "trap" found in conventional faucets, ensuring that beer does not stagnate inside the tap. This design minimizes oxidation, preserves the quality and freshness of the beer, and significantly reduces the risk of bacteria growth, leading to a better tasting pour. Additionally, the Forward Sealing faucet is easy to clean, further enhancing its efficiency and hygiene.

The US10KP and US4KP models are equipped with an advanced refrigeration system designed for optimal temperature control. This system ensures consistent cooling for all kegs, minimizing temperature fluctuations that can affect beer quality. The units also feature individual temperature controls, allowing for precise management of different beer styles that may require varied serving temperatures.

Moreover, both models prioritize accessibility and ergonomics for bartenders. The forward-mounted dispense area and easy-to-reach taps provide efficient service and minimize strain during busy hours. Built-in drip trays help manage spills, ensuring the work area remains clean and organized.

In terms of design, the sleek, modern appearance of the US10KP and US4KP makes them visually appealing in any setting. Their compact footprint allows for easy integration into various bar layouts without compromising performance.

In conclusion, the Perlick US10KP and US4KP serve as exceptional solutions for draft beer dispensing, combining innovative technologies, robust construction, and thoughtful design. Whether in a high-volume bar or a more intimate setting, these dispensers are guaranteed to enhance the draft beer experience for both staff and patrons alike.
