Frequently asked questions

What electrical connection does the Atosa CB3L021 need?

As shipped, the CB3L021 has a NEMA L14-20P locking plug for 208-240V, 60 Hz, single phase, where it draws 2180W to 2880W at 10.4 to 12 A. You need a matching NEMA L14-20R receptacle. A NEMA 5-15P plug for 120V operation is available as an option. At 120V the unit draws 1440W at 12 A.

Can the CB3L021 run on 120V?

Yes. The voltage can be switched in the field between 120V and 208-240V. On 120V the heating power drops to 1440W, so hot water recovery falls to about 3.0 to 3.7 gal per hour, compared with 4.6 to 7.4 gal per hour on 208-240V. For high-volume service, use the 208-240V setting.

What water connection does it require?

The brewer needs a plumbed cold water line to its 3/4" MNPT inlet, with supply pressure between 7.3 and 87 psi (0.05 to 0.6 MPa). A 3/8" O.D. push-to-connect x 3/4" FNPT inlet connector and 3/8" O.D. tubing come with it.

How much coffee does the CB3L021 brew per hour?

It brews up to 160 cups (12 gallons) per hour across its two brew stations. Each station runs independently, so you can brew coffee on one side and tea on the other.

What servers and tea dispensers fit under the CB3L021?

It fits standard 1 to 1.5 gal coffee servers and larger tea dispensers. Atosa's matching servers for the short brewers are the 1.5 gal CD-15-L, CD-15-L-WS, CD-15-NL and CD-15-NL-WS coffee dispensers. The matching tea dispensers are the 3 gal TD-3L-ND and the 5 gal TD-5L-ND.

What certifications does the CB3L021 have?

The brewer is ETL Listed, cETLus Listed and ETL Sanitation certified. ETL and cETLus listing means it meets US and Canadian electrical safety standards. ETL Sanitation means it meets food equipment sanitation standards, which health inspectors look for in commercial kitchens.

How does the CB3L021 differ from the CB3L011, CB3T021 and CB3T011?

The CB3L021 is the short twin model: 24-5/8" wide, 30-3/4" high, with a 3 gal rated capacity and an L14-20P plug as standard. The CB3L011 is the short single-station version: 14-5/8" wide, 1 gal capacity, with a NEMA 5-15P plug as standard. The CB3T021 is the tall twin: 24-3/8" wide, 38-5/8" high, for taller servers. The CB3T011 is the tall single-station model, 14-5/8" wide with a 1.5 gal capacity.
