Technical Specifications

GENERAL
Self-contained, wall hung electric refrigerated water cooler.
Chilling capacity of 50°F drinking water, based upon 80°F inlet
water and 90°F ambient.
Model LZS8 has self-closing Easy-Touch Controls on front and
both right and left sides.
Model LZ8 has self-closing Easy-Touch Controls on the front only.
All models have a hooded stream projector with Easy-Touch
Controls that require less than 3 pounds of force to activate
commercial-grade solenoid based flow control. Patented* valve
with built-in flow regulator provide constant stream from 20 to
105 psi water pressure. Bubbler orifice fully protected to meet all
sanitary codes.
Non-pressurized stainless steel cooling tank is standard. Non-
pressurized water tank is located after bubbler valve, so that tank
is subject to line pressure only when Easy-Touch Control is
pressed.
ADA COMPLIANT
These Water Coolers comply with the requirements of A.D.A.
(Americans with Disabilities Act) when properly installed. Also
meets the guidelines for children’s environments providing the
floor to orifice height is 30" or less and proper clear floor space
is provided for parallel approach. (Based on Architectural and
Transportation Barriers Compliance Board final ruling.) Check
Local and State Codes.
NO LEAD DESIGN
These Water Coolers are certified to be lead-free as defined by
the Safe Drinking Water Act. Elkay Water Coolers are manu-
factured 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. A strainer with an easily cleanable screen is
provided to allow trapping and convenient removal of waterborne
particulate of 140 microns and larger prior to their entry into the
water cooler.
These water coolers are certified to
ANSI/NSF61.

VII FILTER SYSTEM
Elkay Water Coolers are equipped with the WaterSentry VII Filter
System, which is tested and certified by NSF International. The
WaterSentry VII Filter System reduces cysts such as cryp-
tosporidium and giardia by 99.99%. Tested to ANSI/NSF
Standard 53 yields a reduction of soluble and insoluble lead con-
tent 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.
COOLING SYSTEM
Motor Compressor: Hermetically sealed, reciprocating type,
115V, 60 Hz single phase. Sealed-in lifetime oil supply. Equipped
with electric cord and three prong molded rubber plug (domestic
models).
