®
Astor is installed by a trained Eureka Forbes
Service Technician only.
1. Input water must be tested for Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and Total Hardness.
2. Install your Aquaguard
®
Astor in a dry ventilated place.
- Keep it away from direct sunlight, heating devices or areas below freezing
temperatures.
- You can keep it on the kitchen counter or wall-mount it.
- The purifier should be placed in area which is free of ants/insects/other pests.
3. Ensure that the input tap water temperature is in the range of 10º - 40ºC.
- Avoid installation to a hot water tap as it can damage the filters.
4. Ensure that the input water pressure for Astor RO+UV+MTDS/RO are
from 0.3 kg/cm

– 3.0 kg/cm

and Astor UV+UF is from 0.3 kg/cm

. If the input water pressure is more than specified, installation of a PRV
(Pressure Reducing Valve)** is mandatory. If the input water pressure is less
than specified, installation of a booster pump** is recommended.
5. Flush filter thoroughly and independently for 3-5 minutes to remove fine
particles present in the filter. This should be done before installation of the unit.
6. After installing, run the purifier for 5-10 minutes and drain this water.
Input water quality usage limitations:
1. If the input water iron content is more than 0.3 mg/litre, use of an iron remover**
is recommended as a pre-treatment.
2. If the input water turbidity is more than 5 NTU or comprises colloidal particles,
use of a special filter** is required as a pre-filter.
3. If the input water TDS is more than 1000 ppm (mg/L) or input water hardness is
more than 300 ppm (mg/L), use of a Membrane life enhancer**
is recommended.
4. Do not install the water purifier if the TDS is more than that prescribed in the
technical specifications.
MTDS REGULATOR OPERATING PROCEDURE: (Only Applicable for
RO+UV+MTDS models)
TDS modulator is located inside the product. As per factory setting, it comes in fully
closed mode. TDS level of output water can be increased by slowly loosening the
spindle of the TDS modulator (anticlockwise). Normally a slight quarter turn is enough
to increase the TDS of the output water. Rotating the spindle in the clockwise
direction closes the TDS modulator and reduces the level of TDS blending.
Please note that the TDS blending, and its adjustment is dependent upon the level of
TDS of input water and on the TDS reduction capacity of the RO membrane. TDS
adjustment should be done by the authorized Eureka Forbes technician only.
