Referring to the photograph on the left, Keg Sentry Monitor Modules use Presettable Binary Counters instead of servers and software to input data and display draft beer quantities on its built-in three-digit display. Two sets of Binary Switches are used to Preset a Monitor Modules required values.
The Basics
A user enters values by pressing a small detent on the top or bottom of each switch with a ballpoint pen. The Monitor Module in the photograph is preset to monitor a 124-pint US keg (124/14).
The photograph shows three switches on the left, which set KEG SIZE, and two on the right which set POUR VALUE. Three POUR VALUES are available.
- US Pint (14)
- Half-Liter Draw (20)
- Imperial Pint (38)
After presetting any values on a Keg Sentry Monitor Module, pushing the single Push-Button Data Entry Switch in the center of the Monitor Module presets those values.
When replacing an empty keg with an identical replacement, just press the Data Entry Switch.
Lastly, the small push-button switch located at the lower center of the Monitor Module stops counting when the beer lines are cleaned. A red alarm lamp alerts the cleaner to reset the switch when the system is returned to normal.
