8, Start up and Commissioning
a, Once all of the connections are made from the previous sections, check the connections
and open the filtered water faucet tap/open the filter tap if a new 3-way tap has been
installed. This will allow for pressure to not build up in the system during start-up and this will
allow the ‘flush’ of the system
b, Open the feed water valve and turn Nova Pro on.
During system boot up process, the system will sound a series of beeps and the LED lights
on top and front of the system will activate.
After the beeps, the system will commence by first a “flush” process which can be observed
from the on-board digital panel. In this process the membrane sheets are washed by high
flow water that goes directly to the drain line. This process will last for 90 seconds and the
system will next enter the “pump” cycle which also can be observed from the digital panel. In
this process the system will start producing water which can be seen running from the
faucet.
The system should run with the faucet open for 8-10 minutes.
Once the faucet is turned off, the system will remain in the “pump” cycle until it is fully
pressurized. Once this is done, it will be followed by a short “flush” cycle of 5 -10 seconds to
make sure any residuals left on the membrane sheet surface is flushed to drain. Next, the
system will go into “Tank Full” mode where it is in stand
-by waiting to produce water. The
LED lights are automatically turned off in the “Tank Full” mode. Additionally, the TDS reading
is not active and will display “000 PPM” on the screen (TDS is only measured actively during
Flush and Pump cycles).
These cycles will repeat during and after each use of the system. It is important to note that
the long flush cycle is only activated during system first time boot or by manually pushing the
“Flush” button on the front interface.
