OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
WATER FILTRATION SYSTEM

o
Assemble the support bracket onto the cartridge filter (B) (blue canister).
o
Position the cartridge filter (B) and the Softener filter (A) (big cylindrical
vessel) beside each other, in a way the PVC lines match, following the
system layout shown in Figure 2 or Figure 3.
o
Connect item #3R /4L (Right or Left installation)to the back of the 5000SE
valve (see Figure 1) on the Softener filter (A) using the connection pins.
Make sure you insert firmly before attempting to insert the pins.
o
Screw cartridge filter (B) support bracket onto the wall (screws not
included).
o
Proceed to connect items #1 through #6 in order, following the above
system layout, strapping the pipe (item #6-R/#2-L) to the wall using the wall
mounts included. Make sure you initially support the cartridge filter
minimizing any weight or pressure onto the connecting pipes.
Note: It is important to assure your pipes are completely aligned prior to
closing the threaded unions, otherwise you will not have a good seal, and
will create leakage. Make sure you do not overtight the union with a
wrench. This can break the union, and will require to replace the piece.
For best results and to minimize risk of leakage, apply silicon ointment
(such as Dupont Molykote, 111 Compound) on the union gasket prior to
threading closed the union.
o
Brine tank (C) should be placed near the softener filter (A), and be
accessible for easy filling access of salt as required. Overflow line on top
side of brine tank should be routed to your house drain, assuring any case
of spill is drained out without causing damage. The black flexible pipe
connected to the right side of the 5000SE valve (see Figure 1), should be
introduced to the brine tank through the white hole, making sure it is
connected to the down pipe located inside the white pipe fixed to the inner
part of the brine tank.
o
In case a UV disinfection system (D) is purchased, PVC fittings from
installation kit item #5-R or item #6-L will be replaced with item #5A, #5B or
item #6A, #6B respectively.
o
Mount the UV light (D) to the wall with the two wall mounting saddles
included.
Note: Be careful when working with the UV light as bulb is VERY fragile
and may break.
