Installation
IMPORTANT TO ALLOW 6” CLEAR SPACE FOR ACCESS TO CONTROL BOX.
1.
Urn should be level, both front to back and left to right.
CONNECT WATER LINE. 3/8” NPT water inlet located at left end and provide shutoff
valve and union in supply line near urn. 140OF. hot water must be used, 30PSI mini-
mum - 70PSI maximum. We strongly recommend the use of copper or aluminum tub-
ing to provide flexibility and avoid strain on the urn. 3/8” O.D. minimum tubing is rec-
ommended.

CONNECT URN TO ELECTRIC POWER. Check to be sure that the nameplate mark-
ing of voltage, phase and the number of wires matches supply lines. Remove cover on
control housing. The terminal block for the line connections is located in the housing
on the left end. See drawing, as required. It is recommended that a fused disconnect
switch be installed near urn. The urn body must be grounded either through metallic
conduit or else by means of ground wire. An experienced electrician should be respon-
sible for the installation of the urn, and its associated supply line. NOTE: Neutral wire
required on all single phase and on 208 volt 3 phase power supplies to operate 120 volt
AC control circuit.
3.
On single phase, 2 wire service (no neutral) or 3 phase 3 wire service (no neutral) 120
volt AC power to operate control circuit must be supplied as circuit. Do not replace
cover until completing installation start-up.
FILL WATER COMPARTMENT. Turn on water supply and electric service to urn.
Water compartment should fill to stop-full level in approximately 10 minutes.
4.
Turn thermostat knob to BREW position. Pilot light over knob should light showing
heater power on. Water compartment should reach operating temperature approxi-
mately 45 minutes later. When the pointer on thermometer approaches the “W” in the
blue BREW zone, urn is ready for automatic operation.

Spray-Over Time - Volume - Rate
Timer and spray-over rate are factory set as per information below. If other volumes of
water or a faster or slower spray-over rate is desired, see following instructions:
Timer Adjustment
Turn adjustment knob clockwise to decrease time, counterclockwise to increase time.
Operation Start-Up Checks/Brew Cycle Adjustments
1.
Turn thermostat dial to BREW position. Pilot light at top of thermostat bezel should light
up when thermometer pointer is at “W” in BREW zone, this pilot light should go out.
Water in urn tank is now at brew temperature. NOW and ONLY at initial start-up, we
advise checking time of flow of hot water to spray nozzle.
2.
CHECKING SPRAYOVER VOLUME AND RATE (REPEAT FOR EACH SPRAYARM)
Remove cover from brew basket over one liner. Position spray nozzle over this brew
basket. Liner should be empty and faucet shut off. Push in timer start button and brew
pilot should light up. Hot water should start to spray into brew basket. Allow to spray until
brew pilot light goes out and sprayover stops.
Measure amount sprayed over by drawing off into a calibrated one gallon measure. If
amount is more or less than desired, reset timer. Longer time, more sprayover, shorter
time - less sprayover. Each 1/4 minute increase or decrease adds or subtracts about 1/4
gallon to sprayover total. Note that setting of sprayover bypass valve (on sprayarm)
affects amount of sprayover.
Further adjustment of sprayover volume can be made using the internal bypass valve
located in the side pump housing. Screwdriver adjustment is under the hole plug closest
to the urn body. Open the valve for less sprayover, close for more. Valve is wide open
when screwdriver slot is horizontal. It is closed when slot is vertical; i.e., pointing towards
sprayarm for maximum sprayover. The purpose of the internal bypass valve is to direct
excess discharge from the sprayover pump back into the urn water compartment.
Factory setting is 10 gallons sprayover water in 10 minutes (1 gallon/60 seconds) and
sprayover bypass valve wide open. Bypass volume is about 30% of the total sprayover,
or 3 gallons.
Before actual use of urn, it should be thoroughly cleaned and washed. It is also
recommended that a batch of coffee be brewed in each liner based on a final brewing
cycle timer setting and actual muslin bag or filter be used. We recommend that these first
batches be thrown out and not used. Strength of brew may be checked by hydrometer
or evaporation tests but flavor test might be poor on the first batch.

How To Brew In An Automatic Urn
1. Place filter in brew basket with designated amount of ground coffee (automatic urns are
designed to use 1, 2, 3 or 4 lbs. of coffee). Make certain you have a level bed of coffee.
Consult your coffee supplier for exact brewing specifications. (C.B.C. recommendation
is 1 lb. of coffee to each 2 1/2 gallons water).
2. Replace cover and move spray head over center of coffee grounds.
3. Check thermometer to make certain urn is at brewing temperature. Press timer button.
4. When brew cycle is completed (brew light shuts off), remove brew basket and dispose of
spent grounds.
5. Mixing of finished brew is accomplished automatically at the end of the brew cycle if the
urn has an air agitation option. Additional mixing can be performed at later time by
pressing manual air agitation push button.
Where urn is not equipped with air agitation, draw one gallon for each three gallons of
finished brew from coffee faucet, and pour over top into coffee liner.
The coffee is ready to serve.
6. Hold coffee at 185O - 190O F. or HOLD setting on thermostat knob. Brewed coffee can be
held at this temperature for up to one hour with minimal deterioration of flavor and body.
Explanation Of Brewing Cycle
1. When timer button is pushed, the timer is activated.
2. The timer completes the circuit to the sprayover pump which delivers hot water through
the spray arm to the spray nozzle.
3. The hot water from the spray nozzle is sprayed over the coffee grounds. The finished
brew collects in the coffee liner.
4. As the pump delivers hot water from the water compartment through spray nozzle into
brew basket, the water level in the water compartment lowers.
5. Drop in water level in water compartment below sensing probes activates liquid level
control which opens the refill solenoid valve, refilling the water compartment with cold
water.
6. The entry of the cold water activates the thermostat, which allows power to go to the
heating element to maintain the brewing temperature
NOTE: Some urns may be equipped with an optional adjustable bypass valve on the spray
arm. Adjustment of this valve will allow some spray water to bypass the brewing basket for
additional control of the water/coffee brewing formula and the extraction percentage from
the coffee.

Thermostat
The thermostat is factory set so that the knob on the BREW setting holds the urn at
brewing temperature toward the HI end of brew zone on the thermometer dial. Then, if
turned back to HOLD position, the thermostat should cycle on and off and hold at the LO
end of the BREW zone on the thermometer.
Thermostat Adjustment
If the water temperature is below the HI end of the BREW zone on the thermometer dial
with the knob on BREW setting, remove the knob by pulling it straight outward. Using a
small screwdriver, insert in the hole in the center of the shaft, turn slotted screw counter-
clockwise until the red pilot light goes on. Check to see that water in the urn holds at the
HI end of the BREW zone on the thermometer and does not boil.
1.
If the water boils with the thermostat knob set at the BREW position, remove the knob by
pulling it straight outward. Using a small screwdriver, insert into the hole in the center of
the shaft, turn slotted screw clockwise until the red pilot light goes out. Hold shaft so it
does not turn while adjusting screw. Add cold water and check that the heat comes back
on (pilot light glows), and that the thermostat cycles at temperature at HI end of the
BREW zone on thermometer dial.
2.
If the thermostat will not cycle, replace the entire control.
Push Button Timer For Spray Over Control
The function of the timer is to start the pump and run it for a preset period of time and upon
lapse of this time, to stop the pump, thereby completing the spray over cycle.
This urn is equipped with an electric reset timer. Pushing in the START button will start the
flow of water. The timer will complete the time cycle for which it has been programmed and
on completion, the flow will be stopped and the timer will reset itself, ready for the next
brewing cycle.
If electric power is cut off anywhere in the service coming to the urn during the timer
operating cycle, the timer will reset. When the power is restored, the timer must be
restarted by pushing the START button.
Spray Rinse Of Liner
To rinse the liner after brewing coffee, swing the spray arm over the desired liner and push
START button. Allow hot water to spray from the spray arm for approximately 30 to 60
seconds and then push STOP button and drain the liner.

Always rinse the urn immediately after each use.
Add small quantity of hot water, brush sides and rinse with hot water until it runs clean.
Urn is now ready for next batch.
3.
4.
At end of each day clean and brush urn several times, then rinse thoroughly with hot
water.
Remove clean-out cap at the end of the coffee faucet (or take apart faucets which have
no caps) and scrub pipe leading to center of urn. Clean urn gauge glass with brush and
urn cleaner. Rinse!
5.
6.
7.
8.
Scrub the faucet, then rinse it thoroughly with hot water.
Place a gallon or more of fresh water in the urn until next use.
Remove cover and clean. Replace cover, and leave partly open.
ALWAYS REMEMBER TO EMPTY, AND RINSE THE URN WITH HOT WATER BEFORE
USING AGAIN.
NOTE: On automatic urns, use brew start and stop switches, or the rinse switch, to spray
scalding hot water into liner for cleaning and rinsing. On pourover urns, draw hot water
directly from urn. Make sure urn water tank is kept near full, and heat is on.
Semi-Weekly Cleaning Procedure
1.
2.
Be sure that the outer jacket is full of water.
Turn on the heat and fill the urn liner 3/4 full of water; use only urn cleaning compounds,
following manufacturer’s directions; mix thoroughly and let stand about 30 minutes.
Clean the gauge glass, faucet pipe, plugs, etc. using long thin brush. Use urn cleaning
solution for scrubbing. Take faucet valve apart and clean thoroughly. Clean all tubes
well.
3.
4.
5.
Scrub inside of urn and inside of cover with long handled brush. Be sure to clean the
“lug nut” in the base of urn liner.
Rinse the inside of the urn three or four times with hot water - scrubbing each time. Also
rinse parts well. Repeat until all traces of foreign odor and cleaning solution are
removed.
6.
7.
Leave a gallon or more of fresh water in the urn with the cover partly open until the next
use. If cold water is used, allow urn to cool to prevent cracking liner.
The urn baskets may be cleaned by immersing them in urn cleaner solution and scrub-
bing with a stiff brush. Rinse thoroughly and let dry. Sprayheads should be checked to
see that all holes are open. If any are clogged, remove sprayhead and use stiff wire to
open.
8.
Don’t use soap, scouring powders, or abrasives to clean coffee brewing equipment.
WARNING: Cleaner used can affect taste of coffee if not thoroughly flushed out as covered above.

Solid State Coffee Agitation System
Coffee agitation is accomplished with low pressure air, bubbling up through the coffee in
liner. Air enters at the top coffee gauge elbow fittings and forces coffee down out of sight
in gauge glasses during the agitation period. Air continues through into the liner connection
elbow, and bubbles up from this center fitting. The rich, heavy portion of brew is carried up
to the top and thoroughly mixed with weaker top level coffee.
Automatic Program - End of Brew and Delayed Types
At the end of the spray cycle, the air pump turns itself on for about 30 seconds automatical-
ly. This automatic agitation program is either built into the solid state spray cycle (brew)
timer or is provided by a separate solid state agitation relay on equipment with mechanical
timers. Urns with delayed air agitation (Option 43D) have a two minute delay after the end
of the brew cycle before the 30 second agitation cycle starts for improved mixing. This
delayed program is provided by a separate delay solid state relay. Whenever power to the
urn has been off, such as upon installation, the automatic agitation program will begin as
soon as the power is turned on. Otherwise, it operates only after the end of spray.
Manual Agitation
At any desired time, holding in the “manual agitation” black push button switch will blend
stored coffee.
Note: The plug in the cleanout cap at the top of the coffee gauges must be pushed in
completely to avoid air leaks. Gauge glasses are cleaned with a gauge brush by first lifting
out the top cap. (A slight twist will release a tightly sealed cap). Be sure to replace the cap
properly so that the agitation system can operate.
WARNING: Overfilling coffee liners may damage air pumps. Never overfill liners at any
time.

Dual Level Control Auto Refill And Low Water Cutoff System
1. Dual Level Control: What it does:
A.
B.
C.
AUTO REFILL of the water compartment to keep the tank filled with water. When
water is used, the fill valve opens automatically to let more in. The fill valve
closes when the water level reaches full.
LOW WATER CUTOFF to prevent burn out of the electric immersion heater when
there is not enough water to cover it. When low water occurs, the heat automati-
cally switches off. The heat stays off until more water is added.
A device called a DUAL LEVEL CONTROL keeps the tank filled with water and
turns off the heat when water is low by simultaneously monitoring two different
water levels.

Service/Troubleshooting Solid State Air Agitation
A vibrator air pump is located in the control box. This pump supplies the air to the coffee
liners. It is turned on directly by pushing the manual agitation switch, and automatically by
the brew timer or solid state relay in series with the brew timer.
The manual agitation switch is a momentary contact, normally open single pole black push
button switch. Depressing the button closes the switch contacts completing the circuit to
the air pump. It is wired parallel to the automatic agitation circuit.
The automatic 30-second (approx.) operation of the air pump is provided by the output of
the solid state brew timer or a separate solid state agitation relay in series with the brew
timer. The delayed automatic agitation program (2 minute off time between end of spray
and start of 30 second agitation) uses a delay solid state relay in series with the brew timer.
The following trouble shooting guide assumes that internal wiring is correct and 120V AC
power is provided.
1.
IF COFFEE LEVEL DOES NOT RISE BACK IN GAUGE GLASS, or is unusually slow to
come back up, the very small vent hole in the clean out cap is clogged. Clear vent using
a straight pin or similar object.
2.
IF AGITATION DOES NOT STOP, check for sticking manual agitation switch. Where
automatic agitation is built into timer, and manual switch checks okay, timer is defective
and should be replaced. Where automatic agitation is a separate solid state agitation
relay and manual switch checks okay, the relay is defective and should be replaced. If
there is a constant “low” air pump output, the solid state timer or relay is defective and
should be replaced.
3.
4.
IF NO AIR ENTERS LINER, check output of pump through outlet fittings on urn front. If
okay, then make sure all connections are tight. Check for leaks at gauge glass, at top,
bottom and at cleanout cap. May require new o-ring or silicone grease on top cap; upper
or lower gauge glass washer; or, if chipped or cracked, new gauge glass. Also, make
sure passageways through top cap and gauge base are clear.
IF LITTLE OR NO AIR COMES THROUGH FITTINGS ON URN FRONT, open control
box and check pump operation. If pump operates, but has weak output, replace it. If air
pump is okay, air lines between control box and front fittings are blocked or leak.
Blockage usually is caused by overfilling liners. Use stiff thin wire to clear. If air lines
leak, coffee liners are removed first, then tighten compression fittings at each end of
lines.
5.
6.
7.
IF NEITHER AUTOMATIC NOR MANUALAGITATION OPERATES PUMP, pump is most
likely defective and should be replaced.
IF AUTOMATIC AGITATION IS OKAY, BUT MANUAL DOES NOT WORK, replace
manual agitation switch.
IF MANUAL AGITATION WORKS, BUT AUTOMATIC DOES NOT, replace the solid state
brew timer or separate solid state agitation relay.

Cleaning
Disassembly
As with all valves, it may become necessary to clean them
periodically to keep them in peak operating condition. Any
cleaning methods or fluids used should be compatible with
valve materials.
Disassemble in the same general order as indicated in exploded -
view illustrations except as noted in the following steps:
1.
2.
De-pressurize valve and disconnect electrical power source.
To remove solenoid coil:
Insert small screwdriver into gap in voltage nameplate. Slide
screwdriver tip under coil retainer and snap off. If replacing
coil, use knife to separate adhesive-backed valve nameplate
from coil. Keep valve nameplate.
Inspection
1. All moving parts and elastomers should be clean in
appearance without permanent set; springs should be
free of corrosion. If any appear damaged, replace them
with a parts kit which contains all moving parts
necessary to rebuild valve to an “as new” condition.
3.
To remove collar, use service tool X11981-1 shown in Figure 1
Note:
Do NOT lose nameplate, as it is extremely important
if it becomes necessary to order a parts kit, coil or
duplicate valve.
2. Inspect enclosing tube assembly for wear, exterior dents
or other conditions which would impair free movement of
the poppet and/or plunger assembly. Its interior should
be clean and free from any obstructions. Be especially
critical of its valve seat.

1.
2.
Assemble in the reverse general order of disassembly.
Lubricate gasket and “O” ring sparingly with a compatible
lubricant such as a Silicon base lubricant.
Testing
3.
All moving parts must move freely over the full length of its
intended travel.
1. Apply correct voltage to valve solenoid and cycle
solenoid several times. A distinct click should be heard
each time the solenoid is energized.
Troubleshooting
1.
Check system fuses, electrical wiring and system source
voltage as specified.
2. Pressurize valve and check for leaks.
2.
Is flow direction arrow on valve the same as system flow
direction?
Note: Alco solenoid valves are equipped with a
continuous-duty solenoid coil, which when energized for
an extended period of time becomes hot to the touch.
This is a safe operating temperature. Any excessive
heating will be indicated by smoke and odor of burning
coil insulation.
3. Are all system relays operating?
4. Is system source pressure as specified?
5. Are all system components free from obstruction?
