Installation Procedure
Installation Procedure
1. Select suitable location that is close to the existing tap. Remember to allow access
room for changing filter and a suitable place where water spillage will not cause
damage. Location should not be in direct sunlight.
2. Isolate water supply and release water pressure by operating faucet lever. Disconnect
existing braided hose connections from the cold water line.
3. Install filter cartridge to the head assembly (see Fig. 2-4). Please note the arrow on the
cartridge label indicates Undo and Install directions.
Warning:
Ensuring the cartridge is in the correct lock position is critical prior to
operating the system. Not being seated in the correct position can cause the locking
tabs to shear and damage the head and/or water leakage. See Fig 4 for the correct
position.
4. Push one of the joint stem adaptors into the outlet of the cartridge head, ensuring it is
pushed in all the way.
5. Install system assembly by positioning it in the desired location, marking the position
of fixing holes and fixing with mounting screws (PureMix Z Series can be mounted
horizontally and vertically). Allow room for the connecting tubes and for removing the
cartridge (70 mm).
Note:
Knocking the cartridge can cause the cartridge to come out of the locking
position. To limit the likelihood of this occurring it is best not to store items too close to
the system to avoid accidental dislodgement of the cartridge.
6. Connect the braided hose (cold water line) to the other stem adaptor.
7. Connect the inlet stem adaptor to the supplied pressure limiting valve (multivalve) ,
then connect the pressure limiting valve to the cartridge head assembly inlet with the
supplied piece of high pressure tubing (white). See Fig. 1.
Note:
The arrow on the head indicating the direction of the water flow. A hose
extension kit has been provided if necessary, this can be used to extend the hose either
side of the system. Ensure the hose is kink free.
8. Connect the mixer tap's braided hose to the stem adaptor on the head outlet. Make
sure all fittings are tight and braided hose is kink free.
9. Restore the water supply and check for leaks. If leaking occurs then undo cartridge and
check the cartridge is seated properly.
10. Run the system for at least 10 minutes (turn on mixer tap to run cold water) to remove
carbon fines. Water may appear milky, but this is normal and is only tiny air bubbles
that will clear after a short period.
