A-weighted emission sound pressure level is below 70 dB(A)
R290/R600a is a refrigerant-grade propane used on a wide range of commercial refrigeration and air conditioning units. A highly pure propane, it has a low environmental impact and nominal global warming potential (GWP), meaning it possesses no qualities that can destroy the ozone layer. R290/R600a also is the preferred hydrocarbon alternative of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), substituting more harmful fluorocarbon refrigerants like R22, R134a, R404a and R502. Units with R290/R600a can only be maintained and repaired by authorized technicians who are properly trained and certified. |
- Always place the dispenser in its vertical position, on a surface which can capably support its weight.
- During use the unit must remain in its upright position.
- Adequate ventilation must be allowed for. Always install this unit with the Simple-fit Vent Kit to ensure adequate air flow. Installing the unit without the Simple-fit Vent Kit will invalidate the warranty.
- Keep the machine away from sunlight, heat and moisture.
- Power and water supply points must be available near the dispenser, and must meet the criteria specified in the ‘Specification’ section of this manual.
- The environment where the unit is installed must be free of dust and corrosive/explosive gases.

Installation
Installation Requirements
Identify a suitable location for the ProCore unit. It should be positioned within 1.0m of the faucet, and within 2.0m of suitable services connections. Allow enough space to fit the ventilation ducting system.
The ProCore unit must be installed in accordance with the relevant requirements of:
- The appropriate building regulations by application of either The Building Regulations (England and Wales), The Building Regulations (Scotland) or The Building Regulations (Northern Ireland). In territories other than those listed the local regulations in force must be complied with.
- The Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations (England, Wales and Northern Ireland) or The Water Byelaws in Scotland.
The unit must not be installed where it is liable to freeze. If the unit is thought to be frozen it must not be switched on. It should be allowed to thaw and must then be thoroughly inspected to ensure it is undamaged.
Service Requirements
- Water: Mains potable water – internally regulated to 0.3MPa (3 bar)
- Min mains pressure 0.05MPa (0.5 bar)
- Electricity: 10A supply – Earth Leakage Protected
- Waste Drain Connection

Ventilation System Installation
When Borg & Overström undercounter units are installed inside a cabinet or housing, adequate ventilation is essential to ensure that they operate satisfactorily. During a cooling cycle it is normal for the unit to produce heat, and the purpose of ventilation is to provide a supply of air that can absorb the generated heat which would otherwise accumulate inside the cabinet or housing, and reduce the cooling performance of the unit. The amount
of heat generated by the cooling cycle depends directly upon the amount of usage – the higher the usage, the more heat produced. To provide adequate ventilation, this unit must be installed with a Simple-fit Vent Kit to facilitate air flow. Normally this should be enough for all situations.
Important: Before making any cuts into the cupboard or kick board, ensure the area to be cut is free from water pipes or electrical cables. There is a risk of serious injury or death if electrical cables are cut, and significant damage to property if a water pipe is cut.
NOTE: Any obstructions will adversely affect the airflow to the appliance causing potential for poor performance, over heating or fridge failure.

Maintenance & Cleaning
Sanitisation Guide
The product is supplied from the factory in clean condition, but we recommend that a sanitisation procedure is caried out at the point of installation, according to the sanitisation instruction relevant to this model, which can be found in the respective Instruction & Operation Manual
NOTE: Failure to use sanitising products and processes approved by Borg & Overström will invalidate your warranty.
This operation must only be carried out by trained staff.
A sanitisation procedure is recommended every 6 months.
Turn off incoming mains water
Briefly press chilled dispense button to release internal water pressure from the machine.
Remove the existing filter
Use hand gel and put on protective gloves.
Add 25 ml of Bioguard Internal Sanitising Solution to a clean and empty service filter cartridge.
Connect to filter head.
Turn on incoming water, allow the service filter cartridge to fill
Dispense water using the chilled button until the water appears pink. Repeat with sparkling & ambient water buttons.
Leave the solution inside machine for sanitisation to take effect (minimum 5 minutes) while thoroughly cleaning the dispenser externally. (All maintenance operations must be carried out with the dispenser switched off.)
Pay particular attention to the dispense faucet and the push button controls. For this use Sterizen External Sanitiser and Sanitising Wipes.
Remember to include the drip tray. If a Waste Overflow System is fitted, empty this and flush through with a small amount of sanitisation fluid if needed.
Attend to any cosmetic marks as needed. For this we recommend the use of Bioguard External Sanitiser.
Reconnect the power and switch on the dispenser.
When the external cleaning (minimum 5 minutes) is completed, flush the machine using the chilled button with clean water until the dispense water runs clear. Repeat briefly with the ambient and sparkling buttons if present.
Turn off water and briefly press chilled dispense button to release internal water pressure from the machine.
Remove the service filter. Retain service filter for reuse.
Fit new filter and turn on incoming water supply.
Pre-flush the new filter to waste using the chilled button until the water appears clear and is free of air. Flush through a small amount of water to check all functions.
Please note that this sanitisation fluid contains an active caustic/alkaline agent. Always use responsibly and with care remembering that due to its alkaline nature unnecessary concentrated/prolonged contact with any materials, including metals, can cause damage. Always rinse all contact surfaces after use with clean water. | Avoid skin contact and wear protective gloves when handling sanitisation fluids. In the event of any skin contact, flush immediately with clean, cold water. |
Advanced Troubleshooting
Fault Diagnostics
Problem/Report | Possible Cause | Suggested Action |
---|---|---|
No Water Dispensing | Power supply turned off | Check the power supply has been fitted properly and turned on. |
Check Tap HMI Control | Check fault codes. | |
Water Inlet | Check water inlet supply is not isolated | |
Lock icon not pressed | Press ‘hot icon’ to unlock and then press and hold to dispense. | |
Warm Drinks | Insufficient cooling air flow through the fridge. | Check that the condenser is not blocked. Check supply to cooling fans. If supply present replace fans. If supply not present move on to the compressor. The supply to the fans and the compressor are linked. |
Compressor not running | Check supply to compressor (230V AC). Check NTC probe is not faulty Check for system over heat. Allow the unit to cool and check for airflow obstructions. Once the unit has cooled the fridge system will restart. If the problem persists contact technical support. | |
Fridge failure (See fault codes) | If compressor & fan are running and there is no cooling contact technical support. | |
Temperature not hot enough | Water demand too high | See product specification. |
Element not working | Check and replace as required. | |
Dripping | Heater over heating | Ensure temperature probe is correctly fitted and not damaged. |
Continuous or incorrect dispense | Poorly seated HMI lens | Replace lens assembly. |
Excess water on lens | Ensure you keep lens clean and clear of liquids. |
