Water in

The Beer Bottling Monobloc requires water in (3) locations.
- Rinser Pump
- FOB Pump

- Vacuum Pump - see - Vacuum Pump - water ring

The Rinser Pumps can be connected to a vessel containing rinse/sanitize water.

The FOB Pump can be connected to a vessel that contains water suitable for FOBing.

These vessel need to provide a flooded input to the pump.

If the Rinsing and or FOB functions will be done with by city water pressure - the pumps can be bypassed.
You can either plumb the water to the pump and disconnect the pumps from the control panel.

Or you can bypass the pumps entirely and plumb directly to the 3/4" id Rinser hose and the 1/2" od stainless steel FOB line.

Water connection & pump photos.

The pump contactor can also be used to operate a water solenoid. The output of the contactor is 230VAC. You will need a solenoid with a 230V coil or a 230V transformer can be connected to the contactor to run either a 120 or 24VAC coil.
