Wells WM-TR Water Dispenser User Manual


 
INSTALLATION (continued)
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTICE
Installer will be required to test water pressure, water flow, water total
hardness, electrical voltage and amperage; and to record dispenser
installation particulars on the INSTALLATION CHECK OUT form in this
manual.
PLUMBING LINE CONNECTION
If power has been run to the dispenser, verify that the circuit breaker is
turned
OFF, and that the power switch is in the OFF [O] position.
Water-Max™ has an internal sensor to verify that there is sufficient
water pressure to operate. Water-Max™ will not operate until a water
supply is connected to the unit or if water pressure is less than 25 p.s.i.
Water-Max™ must be connected to a potable water supply.
NOTICE:
WATER PIPE CONNECTIONS AND FIXTURES DIRECTLY
CONNECTED TO A POTABLE WATER SUPPLY SHALL BE SIZED,
INSTALLED AND MAINTAINED ACCORDING TO FEDERAL, STATE,
AND LOCAL ORDINANCES.
May be connected to either hot or cold water line. Connecting to a hot
water line will increase the volume flow of the dispenser.
Minimum 1/4” copper or flex tubing supply line (3/8” minimum if run
from main supply exceeds 12 feet) with 1/4” female flare fitting.
Minimum 25 psi / maximum 75 psi water pressure at full flow.
The installation of a SHUTOFF VALVE (must be provided by plumbing
installer) on the incoming water line is required. A 1/4 turn ball valve is
recommended to minimize restricting the water flow during operation.
Installation of a PRESSURE REGULATOR and WATER HAMMER
ARRESTOR (to be provided by plumbing installer) on the incoming
water line is recommended.
Clean the incoming waterline: Run water through the line into a sink or
bucket to flush any foreign particles or debris from the waterline.
Assemble incoming water line to the inlet fitting. Turn on water supply
valve and check for leaks.
Test water for pressure at full flow. If a pressure regulator is installed,
adjust pressure to 40 p.s.i. Record this reading on the INSTALLATION
CHECK OUT form.
Test water for total hardness. Record readings on the INSTALLATION
CHECK OUT form.
CAUTION:
Risk of Damage
DO NOT connect or energize
this appliance until all Installation
Instructions are read and followed.
Damage to the dispenser will
occur if these instructions are
not followed.
IMPORTANT: Water supply
MUST be a minimum of 1/4”
line, and MUST be capable of
supplying 25 p.s.i. AT ALL
TIMES during the operation of
the dispenser.
