ACE CONTROL OVERVIEW
The ace series brewers have been upgraded to include the "Super Ace" control. This control has all the features of the
previous Ace control board with the additional options of pulse brewing, auto arm and half/full brew in one new
compact control. These additional options may or may not be activated on your unit and may require additional parts.
The following text outlines and explains the features and options.
Features:
Digital technology – Gives more consistent brew cycle.
Live probe – This feature is activated when the hot water faucet is in use. When water reaches the water level probe it
turns off the fill solenoid.
Overfill Protection - The Super Ace has a maximum fill valve run time of 1-1/2 minutes if the water does not contact the
water level probe in the tank lid. This is intended to protect the unit from overflow should a fill error occur. When the
tank is filling on the initial set up, an error will occur since this is not enough time to allow the tank to fill. This error will
be indicated by a rapidly flashing brew light. The error may be cleared by holding down the brew start switch until the
light stops flashing.
Visa-brew - This feature helps to communicate to the user that a brew cycle is in process. Once the brew cycle begins,
the brewing lamp flashes to help prevent the removal of the brew basket or serving vessel prematurely. This feature is
adjustable. Adjust the Visa-Brew time to allow sufficient time for hot beverage to drain from brew basket after
completion of the water delivery portion of the brew cycle.
Options:
Auto Arm - Pre-checks water temperature before brewing to ensure optimum brew temperature. When a brew cycle is
initiated, the control board verifies that the temperature in the tank is equal to the thermostat setting. If the water
temperature is not at proper temperature, the brew is stored in memory and light will flash to indicate brewing. When the
temperature rises to the proper setting, the brewer will automatically begin to brew. If your brewer does not already have
the auto arm feature the brewer will require additional parts and wiring changes to convert it.
Half brew – This option allows the brewer to brew a half or full decanter. This option will require additional parts and
wiring changes. Basic kit part number is 120032.
Pulse brew - This option allows the brewer to turn the fill valve on and off during the brew cycle which extends water
contact time with the coffee grounds. This option can be activated by moving the jumper designated (J1) from disabled
to the enabled position. Basic kit part number is 108082.
WARNING: - Read and follow installation instructions before plugging or
wiring in machine to electrical circuit. Warranty will be void if machine is
connected to any voltage other than that specified on the name plate.
Additional Options
PDS - The PDS flow control is an optional flow control valve that is more accurate than a traditional flow control over a
wide range of water pressures and will maintain its volume setting for many years within the harsh water environment
that coffee brewing equipment must operate. See pages 7 and 8 for additional information on this feature.
TS models – The Ace series brewer is available as a telescoping brewer. These brewers are equipped with a
telescoping column to allow periodic adjustment of the brewer height. This feature allows continued use of the same
piece of brewing equipment although the dispensers may change over time. See pages 9 and 10 for additional
information on this feature.
