Is the 301 Push-Button the right dispenser for your build?

The 301 PB is single-valve, push-button — crew-served single-flavor pours. The self-serve LEV variant exists too. If you need 2+ flavors or self-serve, we'll route you. Answer 3 questions.

1. What's the situation?

2. How many flavors do you need on tap?

3. Who pulls the drink — customer or staff?

4. About how many pours per day at peak?

2. What dispenser are you replacing?

3. Why are you replacing it?

The 301 PB is the tower head — sized for a counter cold plate or ice well. To pour you also need a CO₂ supply, regulator, carbonator (for soda), BIB rack, syrup pump, water filter, backflow preventer, and tubing. Uncheck what you already have. If you're running a plain water station, skip the carbonator and the syrup pump.

Required + recommended components per Lancer's install guide. The 301 chills via external cold plate or ice bath — your existing bar setup typically has this.

    Inside the 301 Push-Button

    Four things you connect, no internal cooling

    The 301 PB is a single-valve tower — sits on top of a counter cold plate or in an ice bath. Same chassis as the self-serve sister; the only difference is the actuator (push-button instead of LEV lever). Water, CO₂, syrup, and power come in from below.

    Before your installer shows up

    Pre-install checklist

    Seven things to confirm before the truck arrives. Saves a return visit.

    External cold plate or ice wellThe 302 has no internal cooling. Most bar wells already have one — confirm yours does, or budget for a counter cold plate.
    115V outlet within 6 ftFor the 24V transformer that ships with the tower. Standard residential receptacle is fine.
    Cold water line, 1/4" min40+ PSI flowing. If under 40, add the booster pump from the bundle.
    Floor drain with air gap3/8" line. Code requires the air gap — don't hard-pipe.
    CO₂ supply staged20 lb tank fits under most counters. Fill at a local welding/beverage gas supplier.
    Tower mount footprint~6" wide × ~13" deep on the counter (single-valve tower is the smallest in the family). Plumbing comes up through the counter.
    BIB shelf / under-counter spaceOne BIB rack (~24" × 12") holds the single syrup box. Skip entirely for water-only stations.
    Common questions

    What buyers ask before they pull the trigger

    Push-button is the right call when staff operates the dispenser — bartender, drive-thru attendant, deli counter operator. Press-and-release: no cup contact, no leaning required. Self-serve (LEV lever) is the right call for unattended fountain stations where customers fill their own cups. Same chassis, same plumbing, same key lock — only the actuator differs. ~$30 more than the self-serve.
    Three common patterns for the push-button variant: (1) drive-thru window single-soda/single-juice tap operated by the cashier; (2) deli or breakroom counter-served single-flavor station; (3) bar-end specialty tap where the bartender controls portion accuracy. If customers should serve themselves, the LEV self-serve sister is the right pick.
    No — and this is the most common surprise. The 301 is a tower head only. It mounts above (or in) an external cold plate or ice bath. Most bar wells already have a cold plate built in. If yours doesn't, budget for a separate counter cold plate. Call our techs to spec one to fit your setup.
    No. The 301 is the tower only. If you're running soda you also need a carbonator (we ship the McCann's Big Mac), CO₂ supply, regulator, syrup pump, BIB rack, and tubing. The bundle above pre-specs all of it. For plain water or non-carbonated juice, skip the carbonator and CO₂ side entirely — just water filter + line + pump.
    No special wiring. The 301 ships with a 24V transformer that plugs into a standard 115V receptacle. The 24V is just what the LEV solenoid valves run on internally. Same household outlet you'd use for any small appliance.
    No — the 301 chassis is hard-built for a single valve. If you think you'll grow past 1 flavor, step up to the 302 (2-valve) — same tower platform, same install pattern, just one extra valve. Difference is about $60. Call our techs and we'll quote both side by side.
    Daily: wipe the nozzle and drip tray, sanitize the valve face. Weekly: chemical line cleaning if it's running syrup. Quarterly: change the BEV135 water filter and inspect the backflow preventer. We sell the cleaning kits — call our techs if you want a maintenance bundle priced out.
    Lancer factory warranty is 1 year parts and labor on the tower. We stock the 301 — most orders ship same-day if placed before 2pm CT, ground transit 3–5 days to most US zips. International freight available, call for a quote.

    Still unsure? Call the techs.

    You're spending $3K+ on a 10-year piece of equipment. A 5-minute call with someone who's installed 200 of these is free, and almost always cheaper than the wrong order.
