Specification Sheet
GENERAL
Self-contained, electric refrigerated, wall hung water cooler.
Capacity of 50°F drinking water
, based upon 80°F inlet water
and 90°F ambient.
Non-pressurized tank system is standard. Non-pressurized
water tank is located after bubbler valve, so that tank is
subject 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 LWCE4 and LWCE8 Water Coolers are manufactured
with a waterway system 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.
This water cooler is certified to ANSI/NSF61.

of soluble and insoluble lead content to less than 0.015mg/l.
This translates to lead reduction levels of 93% to 99%. Class
1 particulate reduction as tested per ANSI/NSF 42. Removes
over 97.5% of free available chlorine which provides Class 1
performance as tested to ANSI/NSF 42. Provides taste and
odor improvement.
