This Operation Manual is an integral part of the By The
Glass (BTG Modular) wine serving system, therefore we
recommend you to keep it available for future
references.
Before proceeding, to install and operate your BTG Modular, please read carefully the
instructions contained in this Operation Manual. They provide important information
on safety during installation, duty and maintenance. The manufacturer is not liable in
any way for any damage that may occur from unsuitable or unreasonable use and
incorrect interpretation of the safety rules and installation instructions.
Every BTG Modular is identified with a unique serial number printed on a Data Label.
There are two Data Labels on the machine: one is on the rear panel, close to the
electric socket, the other one is on the front of the machine and is visible when the
door is open. The Data Label is the only means of identification authorised by the
manufacturer and it contains all the data needed by the manufacturer to provide
prompt and clear information concerning any technical aspects as well as facilitate
the replacement of parts.
AVOID DAMAGE OR REMOVAL OF THE DATA LABEL.

During operation it is essential to pay attention to these safety requirements to avoid
the risk of fire, electric shocks or other incidents.
1. Before operating the BTG Modular, carefully read the instructions contained in this
Operation Manual and all other documentation you received.
2. Do not immerse the electrical cord, plugs or the BTG Modular in water or any
other liquid.
3. Install the BTG Modular in environments with temperatures ranging between 16°C
and 26°C, with a relative humidity lower than 60%. Above or below these values will
have a negative impact on the functioning of the device.
4. Be extra careful when operating the BTG Modular in the presence of children.
5. Always unplug the BTG Modular from the electrical socket and let it cool down
before carrying out extraordinary maintenance operations.
6. Do not operate the BTG Modular if the electrical cord, plug or any other parts are
damaged or broken.
7. For any repairs contact only Service Centers authorised by the manufacturer or
supplier and insist to get only original spare parts. Failure to comply with the above
may harm persons, damage property and will invalidate the Warranty.
8. Do not operate the BTG Modular outdoors.
9. Avoid allowing the electrical cord from hanging down along the supporting surface
(table, counter, etc.) and from coming into contact with hot surfaces. Also, do not
place the BTG Modular on top of its electrical cord.
10. eep the BTG Modular far away from sources of heat and steam.
11. Before supplying the BTG Modular, check the voltage indicated on the Data
Label; it has to correspond with your country’s standard voltage supply value. You
may require an adapter to plug the cable into your electrical socket.
12. Do not clean with corrosive detergents or scraping tools. Use only a soft damp
cloth.
To avoid damaging the BTG Modular, it is necessary to take exceptional care during
the loading and unloading processes, as well as lifting according to the text and
pictures, found on the cardboard packaging. Avoid shaking or turning the BTG
Modular upside down and please select a final resting place for the machine in
environments with temperatures ranging between 16°C and 26°C, and a relative
humidity lower than 60%.

When you remove the packaging, check that the BTG Modular has not been damaged
during transport. If you have any doubts, do not operate the BTG Modular and
quickly contact your By The Glass distributor for advice and consultation.
Please make sure that the following items are included in the delivery:
- 1x – Modular unit, 2 bottle capacity;
- 1x - User and Maintenance Manual, Warranty and Manufacturer Certification;
- 2x - Dispense cassette;
- 2x - silicone corks;
- 4x - VERSITEC® platinum cured silicone tubes;
- 1x - Steel strip to secure the BTG Modular to the wall;
- 4x – Connection screws;
- 1x - Stainless steel drip tray;
- 1x – short gas hose (to connect a subsequent unit);
- 1x – Gas seal;
- 1x – screwdriver to operate the lock
- 1x – electrical cord
Before installation, make sure to establish the correct positioning, ensure there is a
suitable space for the location of the inert gas cylinder (nitrogen or argon) and that
there contains an earthed electrical socket which complies with the regulations.
1. After unpacking your BTG Modular, place it on a solid desk or holder.
2. Check the stance and correct it if necessary using the proper technique of
adjusting the foot/feet. Max. allowed lean: 2°.
3. Mount the supplied steel strip(s) to the wall using a level. Ensure that the units
always remain with their feet on the ground.
Never leave the packaging contents (plastic bags,
foam polystyrene, nails, etc.) within the reach of
children, since they are a source of potential
danger. Please be eco-friendly and recycle the
packaging components.

4. In case you can’t mount the Modular to a wall, we strongly advise that you to
embed the unit(s) into the supporting surface. To secure the unit(s) from falling,
tighten two screws in the supporting surface and slide the unit with the slotted holes
over the head of the screws.
5. If you install more Modular units next to each other, connect those together by
applying connection screws on the right side of the Modular. Place the next Modular
on the right by sliding the slotted holes over the connection screws.

6. Connect and bond the short gas hoses in the back between all Modular units and
make sure all connections are sealed with the provided seal clips.
7. Connect and bond the electrical cords in the rear between all Modular units.
8. Make sure you place the gas seal nipple in the gas output of the last Modular unit,
to avoid any gas leakage!
9. Connect regulators according to the scheme provided in the annex.
10. Connect the provided gas hose between the (first or last) Modular and the low
pressure regulator.
11. Connect the high pressure hose to the DSI regulator and attach the hose hand
tightly to the nitrogen (or argon) tank.

12. Connect the electrical cord of the (first or last) Modular to a wall earthed socket.
The machine will directly turn on.
13. Open the nitrogen (or argon) tank, making sure you put the pressure of the DSI
regulator on 2 bar (29 psi) and the (second) low pressure regulator on minimum
0,3 bar (4,5 psi) to maximum 0,6 bar (9 psi) (Depending on the desired speed
of the wine that flows from the tap).
14. From now on your BTG Modular wine serving system(s) is/are ready for bottle
engagements.

6.2 Electrical supply
The BTG Modular operates at either 110V 60Hz or 220V 50Hz depending upon the
country. The BTG Modular must be connected to a supply system equipped with an
effective earth connection in accordance with the rules and provisions established by
law.
6.3 Gas tube Connections
In order to ensure that the BTG Modular performs correctly, it is necessary to
connect it to an inert and food grade certified gas source, typically Nitrogen or Argon
whose inlet is located on the back of the machine on the top.
To connect the pipe, push firmly into the joint. To check if correctly sealed, pull the
pipe back and secure the connection with a clip.
Use certified FOOD GRADE materials as well as the By
The Glass provided gas hoses for nitrogen (or argon)
connections.
6.4 Nitrogen (or Argon) Gas Supply
The use of Nitrogen or Argon gas has two purposes;
1. To preserve wines from oxidation processes. Note: Once a bottle is placed
into the cabinet, gas does not automatically flow into the bottle. If you don’t
use the wine immediately or you don’t yet know when you will, just push the
enter button for a short period of time while holding a glass under the serving
spout. A little bit of wine will flow and then the bottle will be filled with gas
and the wine perfectly preserved.
2. To dispense wines from the bottle to the glass.
Food Grade Nitrogen (or Argon) gas of greater than 99.5% purity must be used. This
is typically supplied as a compressed gas stored in cylinders, at high pressure. The
pressure varies between countries but it is typically between 100 and 200 Bar.
Alternatively a Nitrogen generator can be used.
The Nitrogen (or Argon) Gas cylinder must preferably be stored in a vertical position,
secured in a bottle holder and stored in a ventilated space. It must be connected to a
high-pressure regulator to reduce the pressure to 0,3 - 0,5 Bar.
