Oasis 115V POU1CCT Operating Instructions
Operating Instructions for 115V POU1CCT Watercoolers
A.
INSPECTION
Inspect the carton and water cooler for evidence of concealed damage. Damage claims should be filed with the carrier.
B.
MAINTENANCE
1.
Periodically remove dirt and lint from the condenser. Inspection should be done every three months. If cleaning is required,
disconnect the power supply cord, then clean the condenser with a small stiff non-wire brush. Following this procedure will
ensure adequate air circulation through the condenser for efficient and economical operation.
2.
A cone shaped strainer can be found in the tube leading into the mechanical float valve on the reservoir cap. It can be removed
and flushed clean. Be sure to replace it in the tube once cleaned.
C.
OVERLOAD
PROTECTION
The compressor motor is equipped with an automatic reset protector which will disconnect the motor from the line in case of an
overload.
D.
HOT TANK THERMOSTATS
ON HOT MODELS, THE HOT TANK THERMOSTATS ARE NOT DESIGNED TO OPERATE WET. AN ELECTRICAL FAULT
MAY OCCUR IF THE THERMOSTATS ARE WETTED.
a.
Do not steam or wet clean in the thermostat area.
b.
Where major water spills or leaks have occurred (internal components have gotten wet), do not operate the hot tank until the
thermostats have been given sufficient time to dry out (48 hours), or the thermostat(s) have been replaced.
E.
LUBRICATION
This unit is equipped with a sealed compressor that requires no additional lubrication.
E.
TO PUT WATER COOLER INTO SERVICE
Note: The following states require a licensed plumber to install cooler; AR, GA, MA, MI, OK, RI, SC, SD, TX, VT and WI. CA, KS,
MN, NM and OR allow for a state-registered installer or contractor as well. State and local plumbing codes may prohibit the use of saddle
tapping valves for water line connection in some applications. All connections must conform to applicable plumbing codes.
a.
This unit is suitable for indoor use in domestic, commercial & industrial locations. It should not be placed in locations where it
may be subjected to rain or snow. Recommended ambient temperatures for correct operation of the unit are between 50°F
[10ºC] and 90°F [32ºC].
b.
The water cooler should be located a minimum of 2” [50mm] from the wall to assure adequate condenser air circulation.
c.
Cold water temperatures may be adjusted via a slotted screw on the body of the control (can be accessed through wires on the
condenser). Turning this screw in the clockwise direction will make the water colder (and vice versa)
d.
The machine should only be connected to a potable drinking water supply with water pressure between 25 psig [0.2 MPa] and
100 psig [0.7 MPa].
WARNING: A pressure regulator, such as a Slow Flow regulator, must be installed in
front of the unit’s water inlet if the water pressure (including any possible pressure spikes) could exceed
100psig.
i.
Check the available power supply against the water cooler data plate to ensure correct electrical service (DO NOT PLUG IN AT
THIS TIME).
j.
If filter(s) are to be added, follow filter manufacturer’s recommended instructions for flushing.
k.
Connect the water supply to the fitting on the rear of the cooler using ¼” tubing.
l.
Reservoir will now begin to fill.
Cook and Cold Model
a.
Plug in the water cooler.
b.
Draw water from the faucets.
c.
Allow about 30 minutes for the water to chill after the cooler is plugged in. (Optimum cold water temperatures will not be
reached for several hours).
Hot and Cold Model
a.
Check that the hot tank is switched off, then plug in the water cooler.
b.
Open the hot faucet until water flows freely.
c.
Place the hot tank heater switch in the “ON” position.
d.
Allow the cooler to operate for about 30 minutes for chilled and hot water dispensing (Optimum cold water temperatures will
not be reached for several hours).
CAUTION : ON MODELS WITH HOT TANKS, FAILURE TO FILL THE HOT TANK WITH WATER BEFORE
TURNING ON THE HOT TANK HEATER SWITCH CAN CAUSE PHYSICAL DAMAGE TO THE UNIT.
CAUTION : WATER FROM THE HOT FAUCET CAN SCALD
G.
SAFETY FLOAT
The cooler is equipped with a safety float to prevent overfilling in case the fill float fails. If the fill float should fail, the safety float
will be activated as the water level rises. When the safety float is activated, water flow to the reservoir will be shut off. Press the
black reset button about half way down on the reservoir cap until you hear the water flow restart, then call your service
representative. CAUTION: A hard impact or jarring of the unit while it is filling may trip the safety float.
H.
TO DISCONTINUE USE OF WATER COOLER
Disconnect the power supply cord from the power supply.
Cook and Cold Model
a.
Turn off the water supply.
b.
Drain water in reservoir through faucets.
