Range Overview & Features
Introduction
u1 is a range of undercounter water dispensers that are connected to the mains water supply and
dispense water through a proprietary swan-neck faucet that is mounted on a work surface.
There are two models in the range:
• u1 Chilled and Ambient
• u1 Chilled, Sparkling and Ambient
All Types
Both models have robust steel framed cabinets
and attractively injection moulded plastic front,
side and top panels.
An IEC Power Lead is supplied for connection
to the IEC socket found on the rear of all models
(An additional Schuko type is supplied for the
European market).
Both are Direct Chill cold water dispenser
where water is used as the cooling medium
in the Direct Chill tank. This is automatically
filled and controlled by the level control system
upon installation. This tank is then chilled via the
outer evaporation coil of the capillary controlled
refrigeration compression system. We recommend
fitting a Pressure Reducing Valve is fitted to all
supplies to regulate the pressure
to 3.5 bar/355 kPa.
u1 Chilled, Sparkling and Ambient
Models
On the carbonated water model, water is chilled
as it passes through the coil immediately before
dispense or being pumped under pressure into the
carbonator which it fitted inside the same coil.
The carbonator is also level controlled and allows
the sparkling effect to occur through saturation
with CO2.
Dispense is at inlet pressure and controlled via
the solenoid valves.
The Cold Temperature is thermostatically
controlled via the adjustment screw on the back
of the machine. This setting is factory set and
is not necessary to adjust in most cases
The Cold Tank can be drained via the two
Drain Port on the rear of the machine.
The level control system also incorporates a leak
detection device within the cabinet which switches
the machine off in the event of detecting water.
