UF-1 and UFB-1 Valves Training Manual
© 1999-2005, IMI Cornelius, Inc. - 3 -
There are four varieties of UF-1 and UFB-1 valves:
• The cup activated valve dispenses by means of a lever engaged by the cup.
• A push button valve has a press and hold button on the front cover of the valve.
• The Optifill
TM
valve dispenses with an activation lever but stops after the liquid fills
the cup and touches the lever
• A portion control valve has four programmable drink size buttons that provide timed
deliveries, top off, and a manual dispensing button.
The UF-1 and UFB-1 valves are the same as described above with minor differences for
juice applications. In the UF-1 and UFB-1 valve concentrate enters the nozzle assembly
higher providing a better mix of concentrate and water in the cup. In addition, the orifices
for concentrate are larger to avoid clogging. The concentrate diffuser is gray allowing for
easy identification.
Note: The beverage (syrup) diffuser must be installed in order to use a diversion tube to
ratio the concentrate valve
.
Note: Concentrate valves have only one hole in their sleeve and are only offered in fast
flow capacities of 1.5 to 3.0 oz./sec.
