Safety Precautions and Warnings
The oxidant solution is a disinfectant - NOT DRINKING WATER – and therefore
should NOT be consumed without diluting it with water. The RIO Series OSG is not a
desalinization device for making fresh water from salt water, but instead uses salt water
in making oxidant solution.
For water treatment, ensure the proper dose of oxidant for the water to be treated.
Consult a
qualified engineer, MIOX distributor, or salesperson for proper
dose rates.
Do not add other chemicals to the brine or oxidant tanks.
Ensure that all venting requirements are strictly followed. Refer to MIOX ’s
Hydrogen Safety
White Paper.
Ensure that NO flames or ignition sources are in or around the oxidant tank.
Initial Settings and Startup Checks
Electrical Check
Verify connection to correct power source, for standard units: 480 VAC, three-phase, 50-60
hertz. For 400V units: 400 VAC, three-phase, 50-60 hertz.
Initial Salt Filling
1.
Flush the water line feeding the brine generator
2.
Ensure that all hose fittings are tightened
3.
Close the outlet valve and open the inlet valve to fill brine generator with water only.
This will hydrostatically test the tank for leaks and wash the quartz rock.
4.
Once the tank is filled, drain dirty water to waste.
5.
Pour salt into brine generator until it is full. Salt can be loaded up to the 4” cap on the
brine float assembly.
6.
Open the brine generator water supply valve and fill with softened water. The
generator has a float that will stop the flow of water to the brine generator. Observe
that the water flow stops at the correct level.
7.
After filling the brine generator with salt and softened water, allow 60 minutes for the
salt to dissolve before priming the brine proportion pump
