[a] HOW TO MAKE COOLING WATER
| IMPORTANT |
| Carefully read this before filling the water tank. |
Electric conductivity (E.C.) of cooling water for water tank
Do not use tap water.
Fill the water tank with water having 100 - 300~ S / cm of E.C.
Measure the electric conductivity with conductivity meter.
- E.C.: Physical property to show the ability of conducting electricity.
Unit: S (microsiemens)/cm
Below 100~ S / cm
Compressor may not work resulting in poor cooling performance.
Above 300~ S / cm
Excessive ice may build up on evaporator and freeze beer inside beer coil preventing beer from being dispensed properly.
How to make cooling water with 100 - 300~ S / cm of E.C.
The capacity of the water tank of this unit is approx. 30L
Make the cooling water by dissolving 5g of pure baking soda in approx. 10L of distilled water, and then add approx. 20L of distilled water to fill the water tank.
Step 1
Measure 5 g of pure baking soda with nozzle cap (accessory).
Step 2
Fill a bucket with approx. 10L of distilled water and stir well after adding the 5g of baking soda measured in step 1.
Rinse the nozzle cap after use.

[b] COOLING WATER SUPPLY
WARNING
Before filling the water tank, turn off the power switch (earth leakage breaker) and unplug the unit.
NOTICE
Do not splash water on the electrical parts.
Do not fill the water tank above the water level line, or the drain pan will overflow and spill water.

2) Pour the bucket (approx. 10 L) of cooling water prepared.
3) Fill the water tank up with approx. 20L of distilled water to the water level line marked inside the water tank.
4) Use a conductivity meter if measuring the electric conductivity.
5) Close the top cover.

3. CHECKS BEFORE OPERATION (DAILY)
[a] CHECKING CO2 GAS CYLINDER
Open the main valve of the CO2 gas cylinder, and check the gas pressure by the level gauge of the regulator:
- If the level gauge reading is not more than 3MPa or falls into the yellow zone, the cylinder contains little CO2 gas.
- If the level gauge reading is not more than 1 MPa or falls into the red zone, replace with a new cylinder.
![Hoshizaki BEERMATIC DualTap DBF-AS65WE-EU-HC - [a] CHECKING CO2 GAS CYLINDER - 1](/content/2026/04/704246/images/fe5f6299eb7320d31e4888d4db9839c610a555534ad61860fe6c7d5e35d9db50.jpg)
[b] REPLACING CO2 GAS CYLINDER
