Chapter Three: Installation
Disconnect all power before installation.
If the boiler is installed in an inaccessible place, ensure that the electrical power, beer supply, and
water supply can be easily turned off in an emergency.
The minimum water inlet pressure is 3.6 psi (0.25 bar) and the maximum is 30 psi (2 bar), for
pressures in excess of this, use an inline pressure regulator before connecting to the boiler system.
The steam pipe from the boiler to still should be kept to a minimum, pipes longer than 10 feet (3
meters) should be insulated to prevent heat loss. Steam pipes will be hot during use and must be
protected against accidental contact.
Keep the number of right angle bends to a minimum and ensure that the run of does not create a
trap into which condensate would gather and cause a blockage (i.e. the pipe must not go down and
then up).
There must be no valve or other blockage in the steam pipe
The steam pipe should be metal of other material that can withstand a constant 350 degrees F
(150°C) temperature. Stainless Steel or Copper pipe is recommended. Do not use pipe that can rust.
Do not permanently install the EB120 system outdoors. It can be used outdoors, but must be stored
inside and protected from the weather. The unit is not weatherproof.
Do not use the EB120 inside your house. A garage with the door open is fine, but never inside the
living area.
The EB120 should be level side-to-side and front to back and should be installed so that the arrows
on the case point up.
Do not install or operate the EB120 in close proximity to flammable or hazardous substances.
