There are several aspects of this technology
that increase the safety and reliability of your
LIFESAVER bottle.
auto shut Off
As the LIFESAVER cartridge nears the end of
its service life a greater and greater number
of pumps are required to induce water to
flow. There will come a point at which despite
continuous pumping water does not flow. This is
the auto shut off feature of FAILSAFE working.
your cartridge has now expired and you must
now change it. Before changing however,
perform a front side wash as the membranes
may just be covered with particulate matter.
Membrane integrity
The ultra filtration membranes used in your
LIFESAVER bottle have been precision
engineered. They have been integrated into a
robust cartridge format and have been designed
for long service life. If treated incorrectly they are
liable to break. There are several reasons why
a membrane might break. DO NOT subject the
bottle/cartridge to shock or other misuse such as
inserting objects into the cartridge or filling the
cartridge up with anything other than water. DO
NOT allow large, sharp or abrasive matter such
as stones, glass, metal etc. to enter the cartridge.
Membrane integrity check
your LIFESAVER bottle has been designed to
work at any angle and on any axis. If water does
not flow at all angles and axes then you have
damaged the membranes in some way and you
must replace the cartridge immediately.
MAINTENANCE
AND
CARE
iMPOrTaNT!
This integrity check should
be performed on a regular
basis and every time the
bottle has been subjected
to shock or you suspect
damage may have
occurred for any reason
to the bottle or cartridge
membranes.
