Required Tools & Materials
- 720-0154 - Agitator / Recirculation Pump
- #2 Phillips screwdriver
- #3 Phillips screwdriver
- Cable snips
- Zip Ties
- Small Bucket
Removal Procedure
Task 1: Depressurize the water system.
- Power off the Bevi.
- Turn off power to the unit by flipping the switch on the back near where the power cord connects.
- Open the door.
- Close the buffer tank.
- The buffer tank valve is located behind the CO2 tank.
Turn the valve 1/4-turn clockwise to close (pointed forwards/perpendicular to the flow of water).
- The buffer tank valve is located behind the CO2 tank.
- Power off Chiller.
- The power switch is located on the right side, towards the rear of the chiller.
- Using Diagnostic Lines, depressurize the Still and Sparkling outputs.
- Remove the Still and Sparkling Diagnostic lines from the grommets at the base of the door.
- Place both lines into a bucket.
- Open the Still Diagnostic Valve until completely depressurized, then close the valve.
- Open the Sparkling Diagnostic Valve until only CO2 is coming from the line, then close valve.
- Turn off the CO2 tank.
- Reopen the Sparkling Diagnostic Valve again until all CO2 pressure is released.
- Once all CO2 pressure is released, close the valve.
Task 2: Remove the chiller.
- Remove the bracket at the base of the chiller
- Using a #3 Phillips screwdriver, remove the two screws securing the bracket.
- Note: If the screws are corroded and you are unable to remove, contact Bevi Support at 866-704-BEVI before proceeding to next steps.
- Disconnect all inputs and output tubes from the chiller.
- Remove red locking clips from each fitting.
- Disconnect Water In, Ice Bank Fill, CO2 In, Sparkling Out, and Still Out tubes from the front of the Chiller.
- It is much easier to disconnect the tubing from the 90° elbow push-to-connect fittings. Leave the elbow fittings connected to the chiller.
- Carefully slide the chiller out of the Bevi and place on the ground.
- Take care to keep the chiller as flat and level as possible.
- Note: It is possible that some water may spill out of the ice bank while removing the chiller.
Task 3: Remove the sheet metal cover.
- Using #2 phillips screwdriver, remove the 10 screws securing the cover to the chiller.
- There are 6 screws on the front, and 4 on the back.
- Lift the cover off of the chiller.
- You may need to pull the side panels out slightly to separate the cover from the Chiller.
Task 4: Remove the Agitator & Recirc Pump Assembly
- Disconnect the Recirculation output tube from the PTC fitting on the Agitator.
- Remove the red locking clip and disconnect the tube.
- Remove the Recirculation return tube from the ice bank.
- The return tube in not connected to a fitting.
- Remove the 4 screws at the base of the agitator.
- Lift the Agitator & Recirculation Pump assembly out of the Ice bank.
- Remove the 2 screws securing the electrical panel to the side of the chiller.
- Carefully cut the zip ties securing the agitator cable.
- Caution: Take caution as to not cut or nick any wiring while cutting the zip ties.
- Disconnect the 3 wires from the panel.
- Prior to disconnecting the wires, take a photo of the wiring connections to reference for reinstallation
- Carefully remove the Agitator and cable from the chiller.
Installing the New Agitator & Recirculation Pump.
Task 5: Install the new Agitator.
- Place the new Agitator into the chiller.
- Reinstall the 4 mounting screws.
- Route the cable to the electrical panel.
- Reconnect the three wires to the panel.
- Refer to the photo you took during removal to reference wiring connections if needed.
- Reinstall the electrical panel on the side of the chiller
- Secure the agitator cable with new zip ties.
- Reconnect the Recirculation output tube to the push-to-connect fitting on the Agitator.
- Reinstall red locking clip on Recirculation output tube push-to-connect fitting.
- Insert the Recirculation return tube through the hole into the ice bank.
Task 6: Reinstall the Chiller.
- Place the cover back onto the chiller.
- Reinstall all 10 screws to secure the cover to the chiller.
- Lift the Chiller and slide into the base of the Bevi.
- The chiller feet need to slide into the slots of the rear bracket for proper placement.
- Reinstall chiller bracket.
- Reconnect all tubing to the front of the chiller.
- Ensure tubes are fully seated into push-to-connect fittings.
- Reinstall red locking clips.
Task 7: Top off the Ice Bank
- Power on the Bevi machine.
- Turn on then supply water.
- Top off the Ice Bank.
- During the removal and reinstallation process it is likely that some water will spill from the ice bank.
- From the Service Panel, touch “Advanced” in the upper right corner of the screen.
- Touch “Open Inlet” in the lower left of the Advanced menu.
- You should hear the inlet solenoid click open.
- With the open end of the overflow tube draining straight down into a collection container, open the ice bank fill valve to begin topping off the ice bank.
- Open the ice bank fill valve until water begins to flow from the overflow tube.
- As soon as water is flowing from the tube, close the ice bank fill valve.
- Allow any excess water to drain from the tube, and resecure the open end of the tube into the clips.
- Open Buffer Tank.
- Turn the Buffer Tank valve counter clockwise so it is pointed upwards (in line with water flow) to open.
- Turn on the CO2 tank.
- Plug in power cable and power on the chiller.
Task 8: Test Functionality
- Exit the Service Panel to the main dispense screen.
- Pour both still and sparkling water to verify Bevi is dispensing properly.
- Check for any leaks.
- If any leaks are found, inspect all connections and ensure tubing is fully seated.
- Close and lock the door.
