1INTRODUCTION
1.1 PURPOSE
The BrewBlast™ 110CPH provides an economical, precise means of
supplying nitrogen to “push” the cold brew coffee to the tap within café and
coffee-serving establishments.
South-Tek System’s line of BrewBlast™ products consist of an internal N2
generator and an integrated compressor. Since air is comprised of ~79%
N2we simply and cost-effectively separate the N2from the air. Nitrogen is
an inert gas (non-combustible), which is even used to package food
products for increased shelf life. The N2is “generated” by our membrane
technology, where compressed air is forced through a separation media
and O2is exhausted to atmosphere and N2is allowed to pass through to
process.
1.2 AUDIENCE
This manual is intended for Installer/Restaurant/Bar Operator/Supervisory
Staff and should be read in its entirety prior to operation.
Please contact your local provider for any operation and maintenance first
prior to contacting the manufacturer.
1.3 IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Before personnel attempt to service the unit, ensure the power switch has
been turned to the off position, and then disconnect the unit’s external
power cord from the building electrical power supply if possible. Always
follow specific manuals from STS when servicing your system.

2SAFETY GUIDELINES
2.1 GENERAL
Correct use of the BrewBlast™ 110CPH is important for your personal
safety and for trouble-free functioning of the BrewBlast™ 110CPH.
Incorrect use can cause damage to the BrewBlast™ 110CPH or can lead to
incorrect gas supply.
The BrewBlast™ 110CPH produces Nitrogen (N2) at a low flow rate, which
quickly dissipates into the air. N2gas is not poisonous but it should not be
directly inhaled, since in high concentrations, it can cause asphyxiation.
Ensure that the unit is installed within a well-ventilated room, one that is
not sealed off from normal living space air changes.
Install with at least 6” of open space on either side to allow for proper
ventilation of the nitrogen generator. Blocking vents can cause excess heat
to build in the nitrogen generator cabinet.
All personnel involved with installation, operations, and maintenance of the
BrewBlast™ 110CPH must follow safe working practices, OSHA, and local
health/safety code regulations during the installation, operation, and
maintenance of the unit.
Warning:
This guide must be read in its entirety prior to installing and operating the BrewBlast™
110CPH to prevent accidents and damage to the BrewBlast™ 110CPH.
Contact your supplier if you detect a problem that you cannot solve with this manual.
Only use the BrewBlast™ 110CPH in accordance with its designed purpose.
Only service-engineers, that are qualified to work on electric and pneumatic equipment,
are allowed to do the installation, maintenance, and repairs. Unqualified people are not
allowed to repair the equipment.
Do not tamper or experiment with the equipment or exceed the technical specifications

3INITIAL START-UP
3.1 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Connect the power cord supplied with the BrewBlast™ 110CPH to the plug on the
back of the system labeled “Power Supply” and plug the opposite end into a
standard 120VAC/60Hz/1ø wall receptacle (preferably a designated small
appliance circuit).
Customer Alarm
These connections are for remote monitoring of the equipment, they can be used
to connect to an audible or visual alarm indicator or run to a building
management device. These contacts are rated for a maximum of 1A at 5-
27VDC/5-240VAC. Follow local and site regulations when wiring these
connections.
The yellow wire acts as the common which will supply power to the NO or NC
depending on alarm status. If an alarm is triggered, including BlastOff™, filter
replacement, and compressor replacement, the COM and NO will be connected,
and the COM and NC will be disconnected. The NC connection (red) also acts as
a power loss indicator, it will signal if the generator is unplugged or accidentally
turned off.

3.2 NITROGEN/DRAIN CONNECTIONS
The outlet nitrogen port is a standard industrial quick coupler for
connection to normal air hoses. A ¼” MNPT quick coupler plug is also
included for connection with ¼” NPT hoses and piping.
Connect by pushing the sleeve on the nitrogen outlet quick coupler while
pushing the quick coupler plug into the coupler. Once in place, release the
quick coupler sleeve to lock the plug into the coupler.
The condensate drain connection is a ¼” OD push-to-connect fitting, this
fitting can be connected to an external drain to drain off the water
accumulated in the filter bowls. The filter bowls drain automatically when
enough water has amassed in the bottom of the bowls.
To locate the drain connection, see figure on the next page.

3.3 TURNING ON THE GENERATOR FOR THE FIRST TIME
•To start the generator once electrical and plumbing connections are
made, simply push the green power switch on the front of the
generator to the ON(up) position.
Note: On startup the generator will have a 12 second delay before the
compressor operates. This is designed to prevent damage to the
compressor.
•At this point the power switch should be illuminated designating the
system is operating and the generator will start filling the internal
storage tank.
•It is suggested that the system plumbing leading to the cold brew
system be purged with the nitrogen being generated in the initial
start-up for at least 15 minutes to ensure the best purity of nitrogen
for pouring.
•Watch the system fill and fix any leaks determined down stream of
the nitrogen generator. Leaks can cause excessive run times and
wear on components.
•Once the storage tank is full (~90 PSIG) the generator will shut off
and go into standby (amber light will be illuminated).

•After the nitrogen storage tank is depleted down to the cut-in
pressure (~60 PSIG) the generator will turn back on and refill the
system.
3.4 STARTING & STOPPING
•To start the
generator simply push the green
power switch on the front of the
generator to the ON(up) position.
Note: On startup the generator
will have a 12 second delay
before the compressor
operates. This is designed to
prevent damage to the
compressor.
•At this point the
power switch will be illuminated
and the generator will be
operating normally.
•The system has
two main run modes –Run and
Standby. When the green
(Operate) power switch is turned on and illuminated, the internal
controller will automatically determine which mode to enter.
•If the BrewBlast™ is in run mode, the standby light will be off and the
nitrogen generator will be filling the storage tank with nitrogen.
•If the BrewBlast™is in standby mode, the standby light will be
illuminated; the nitrogen generator will be off and waiting until the
storage tank pressure drops the cut-in pressure to turn back on.
•If the BrewBlast™ 110CPH runs continuously for more than 9 hours,
the BlastOff Alarm will shut down the generator (see: 4.2 for more
details)
