5.6  Maintenance 

 

 

Before performing any maintenance, ensure that the plant UO small unit is disconnected from the 

power supply. 

 

In case of failure, never try to repair the system yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced 

persons may cause injury or accidents. Refer to the contents of this booklet. If you do not find the 
information you need, contact the service centre nearest you. Assistance for the purifier must be carried out 
by an authorised service centre. Do not allow non-specialized personnel to attempt to repair it. 

 

Insist on the use of original spare parts. Only with original spare parts is the functional reliability and 

optimal performance of the equipment guaranteed. Remember that water produced is intended for process 
use!  

IMPORTANT 

 

 During the warranty period, no intervention may be performed without prior authorisation from our 

Technical Assistance office. If this is not heeded, the warranty is automatically voided. 

 

Routine and extraordinary maintenance must be done at regular intervals by an authorized 

technician, who will also fill in the relevant section after any operation. 

 

If routine and extraordinary maintenance are not performed regularly, the manufacturer accepts no 

responsibility for the quality of the water supplied. Also, if the unit is not serviced and the maintenance 
reports are not completed, then the warranty is voided. 

 

The system uses components subject to periodic replacement and it is not possible to predetermine 

the actual duration: a crucial factor is in fact the quality of the inlet water (the higher the quality of incoming 
water, the greater the average life of the component). 

 

The operation of the unit is fully automatic and maintenance is very low. The only operation 

necessary is the periodic replacement of the filter cartridge. The average duration of osmosis membranes can 
vary greatly depending on the characteristics of water, amount of use, and several other factors. 

 

If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, an authorised service centre, 

or a qualified technician in order to avoid all risks.  

 

Installing the hydraulics requires the use of a new set of movable joints and the old 

ones should not be used again.  
 

PREFILTER REPLACEMENT 
 

 

For normal use of the system, it must be replaced within and no later than 3 months (even if the use 

is minimal). 

 

The timing of replacement is in any case variable as it is influenced by the characteristics of the local 

water supply. Substitution in any case must take place before 11,000 litres
