TROUBLE
CAUSE
REMEDY
Excessive foaming.
1. Incoming water or syrup temperature too
high.
2. CO
2
pressure too high.
3. Water flow rate too high.
4. Nozzle and diffuser not installed.
5. Nozzle and diffuser not clean.
6. Air in BIB lines.
7. Poor quality ice.
8. High beverage temperature.
1. Correct prior to dispenser. Consider larger
dispenser or pre-cooler.
2. Adjust CO
2
pressure downward, but not
less than 70 PSI (0.483 MPA).
3. Re-adjust and reset ratio. Refer to “Adjust
Water Flow Rate & Syrup/Water Ratio”
Section on page 12.
4. Remove and reinstall properly.
5. Remove and clean.
6. Bleed air from BIB lines.
7. Check quality of ice used in drink.
8. Check refrigeration system.
Water continually overflows
from water bath into drip tray.
1. Loose water connection(s).
2. Flare seal washer leaks.
3. Faulty water coil.
1. Tighten water connections.
2. Replace flare seal washer.
3. Replace water coil.
Compressor starts and
continues to run until freeze
and will not cut off.
1. PCB malfunctioning or faulty ice bank
probe.
2. Ice bank probe positioned improperly.
3. Ice bank probe shorted to ground.
1. See page 18.
2. Check positioning of ice bank probe, and
replace if needed.
3. Replace ice bank probe.
Warm drinks.
1. Restricted airflow.
2. Dispenser connected to hot water supply.
3. Refrigeration system not running.
4. Refrigerant leak.
5. Condenser fan motor not working.
6. Dirty condenser.
7. Dispenser capacity exceeded.
1. Check clearances around sides, top, and
inlet of unit. Remove objects blocking
airflow through grill.
2. Switch to cold water supply.
3. Refer to page 20, the correct relay will
cause compressor failure.
4. Repair and recharge.
5. Replace condenser fan motor.
6. Clean condenser.
7. Add pre-cooler or replace with larger
dispenser.
Compressor does not start (no
hum), gas cooler fan does not
run, and no ice bank.
1. There is a five (5) minute compressor and
condenser fan delay.
2. Ice bank probe not completely
submergered.
3. Circuit breaker or fuse tripped.
4. Inadeequate Voltage
5. PCB malfunctioning
6. Incorrect Wiring
7. Faulty ice bank probe.
8. Transformer failure.
9. Ice bank probe not connected properly to
PCB.
1. Allow for five (5) minute delay to lapse.
2. Fill water reservoir until water flows from
overflow tube.
3. Reset breaker or replace fuse. If problem
persists: Determine reason and correct
or electrical circuit overloaded; switch to
another circuit.
4. Measure voltage across common and run
terminal on compressor.Voltage must not
drop below 90% of rated voltage.
5. See page 18.
6. Refer to wiring diagram and correct.
7. Replace ice bank probe.
8. Reset transformer circuit breaker. If
breaker pops again, refer to “Circuit
breaker tripping” in Troubleshooting.
9. Connect ice bank probe to PCB.
