Filter housing
For a good sealing of the filter housing, please lubricate the O-rings in the filter bowls
with the included acid-free silicone grease.
Mount the filter housing at an easily accessible place. Connect the filter inlet with the
outlet of the feed pump and the filter outlet via PVC hose with the high-pressure
pump. Secure all hose connections with stainless steel hose clamps. Install all hose
connections in a way that air accumulations are avoided.
Fresh water pipe
EASY TO MAKE A CONNECTION
Cut the tube square and remove burrs and
sharp edges. Ensure the outside diameter is
free of score marks.
Push the tube into the fitting, to the tube stop.
To disconnect, ensure the system is
depressurized, push the collet square against
the fitting. With the collet held in this position
the tube can be removed.
Direct the PE-fresh water pipe from the fresh water outlet at the membrane housing
to the inlet at the flow meter in the control panel. With several membranes connect
them with the supplied Y or T-fittings.
From the three-way valve (no. 2), direct one pipe to the test-outlet and one pipe from
the outlet to the fresh water tank. If necessary, use the supplied adapters from the
PE pipe to a 13mm PVC hose.
Attention:
Never block the product water line (valve etc.). This damages the membrane and
leads to bursting of the product water line.
Advice
:
A good place for the test-outlet is the sink or basin, where it can be installed by an
additional water outlet
without
cut off cock.
At this position, an easy control of the product water is possibly, furthermore you can
bottle your drinking water here directly. This ensures that the quality of the drinking
water will be best, since it does not have to follow a detour over the drinking water
tank on-board.
Attention:
If the inlet is installed below the tank waterline chlorinated water (that possibly
entered the tank at the last shore water fill up) might flow back from the tanks into the
membranes. As chlorine destroys the R.O. membranes, a return flow from the tank
has to be avoided. A return from the water tank is not possible if the 3-way valve no.
2 in the control panel is switched to the teat outlet postion.
A non-return valve must
not be used.
