B. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Thank you for purchasing the model AD-840 water vending machine. It is made by American Dispensing
Company and is one (1) of the most advanced water vending machines on the market today. It is microprocessor-
based and programmable. It interacts with the customer and owner through a light emitting diode (L.E.D.)
display and a membrane keyboard (touch pad). The AD-830 purifies water through a five-step process:
Incoming water first passes through a 10-micron absolute SEDIMENT FILTER. This means that suspended
solids larger than 0.01 mm (or about forty-thousands of 1-inch) such as slit and fine sand are removed.
Water then passes through a CARBON FILTER. This removes chlorine, odor, and a variety of organic
contaminants, such as chloroform and pesticide residue. The AD-830 uses a carbon filter with an extruded
carbon core and an inner filtration wrap. This combination ensures that, unlike a conventional granular activated
carbon (G.A.C.) filter, there is no channeling or bypassing, and no release of fine carbon particles.
