Installation Procedures - WaterLogic WL100 Technical Manual

Installation Procedures

IMPORTANT NOTICE:
This procedure should only be carried out by a technician trained by waterlogic
international or by an approved distributing agent.
Note: This appliance is intended for indoor use only. Cleaning of Waterlogic prod-
ucts should not be carried out using a jet washer.
1. Mount the WL100 on a firm flat surface with a 50mm air gap on both sides and top
so that it cannot topple or fall from a counter top.
2. It is advisable that the water and electricity supply are within two meters of the
WL100 and that the water isolation valve and power supply are accessible. The
WL100 should not be installed using an extension lead. The water supply should be
from a potable source.
3. Level the machine using the adjustable feet.
4. Remove the top cover of the machine. If you are installing a freestanding machine
also remove the lower front cover. This is retained by two screws located under the
front edge at the bottom of the cover and two clips in the same location. Remove
the screws and push clips up to release. To gain access to the screws tilt the ma-
chine backward at an angle of 10 degrees.
5. Make the water connection using an installation kit. Waterlogic recommends the
use of a pressure reducing valve, and shut off valve and a non return valve. These
should be fitted before the water intake to the machine. Minimum operating pres-
sure for the machine to work suitably is 2.5 bar. The ideal operating pressure is at 3
bar. At pressures higher than 3 bar the machine will not function correctly and can
lead to leaks.
6. Please flush the water supply pipe until it runs clear, before making the water con-
nection to the rear of the machine.

7. The power lead is located in a recess on the top packing cover of the machine re-
gardless whether it is a mini or a free standing model. Inspect the electrical socket,
the machine plug and the power cable for any transit damage. Now plug the power
lead into the back of the machine. As soon as you plug the machine into a suitable
power supply, voltage will be available to the PCB and solenoid valves and you can
now start to flush water through the machine. Do not at this point turn on the heater
and compressor switch at the rear of the machine. This switch should only be turned
on once the hot tank is filled with water.
8. The hot water temperatures is set at 85°C and the cold water temperatures is
set at 5°C at the factory. It is not possible to adjust the hot water temperature, but
the cold water temperature can be adjusted by regulating the thermostat situated
at the back of the machine. This thermostat is set at a specific point at the factory.
This point is marked out by a small dot situated on the outside of the thermostat. It
is advised that you do not adjust the cold thermostat past the factory set point of
5°C as this may result in the system freezing.
9. If installing a hot and cold model, do the following. Alternatively go to point 11.
10. Select the hot water option and press the dispense button to start flushing wa-
ter through the machine filter and hot tank. The filter will produce carbon fines at
first and the water may have a black appearance. Continue to flush 10 litres of water.
11. Select the cold water option and press the dispense button and flush for 10 litres
of water through the cold tank. If you are installing a cold only machine then flush for
20 litres. This will generate the filter and clean any residual water from the machine.
12. Check the machine for any water leaks and ensure that all water fittings are se-
cured properly.
13. Once you are satisfied that water is passing through both the hot and cold tank
successfully then turn on the heater/compressor switch at the back of the machine.
The machine will now start to heat and chill.
