No Lead Floor Water Cooler
Water Cooled
Models EFW16, EFWC16 (Corrosion-Resistant)
GENERAL
Self-contained, electric refrigerated, floor model water cooler.
Capacity of 50°F drinking water, based upon 80°F inlet water.
Non-pressurized tank system is standard. Non-pressurized
water tank is located after bubbler valve, so that tank is sub-
ject to line pressure only when valve button is pressed.
NO LEAD DESIGN
THIS WATER COOLER COMPLIES WITH THE LEAD-FREE
DEFINITION IN THE SAFE DRINKING WATER ACT OF 1986
AND LEAD CONTAMINATION CONTROL ACT OF 1988.
Elkay Water Coolers are manufactured with a waterway sys-
tem utilizing copper components and completely lead-free
materials. These waterways have no lead because all lead
materials, such as leaded brass, have been removed. All
joints are brazed using silver solder only. No lead solder is
permitted. A strainer with an easily cleanable screen is pro-
vided to allow trapping and convenient removal of waterborne
particulate of 140 microns and larger prior to their entry into
the water cooler.
This water cooler is classified by Underwriters
Laboratories Inc. in accordance with ANSI/NSF61,
Section 9-1997b.
