Turning off your RO System

To manually turn off your RO system it is recommended that a 1/4 inch Ball Valve is fitted in the red supply

pipe. Should you anticipate frequently moving your system then a ball valve should also be fitted to the blue

production pipe and the green waste pipe. This will ensure that your membrane is kept wet at all times.

To have the system turn off automatically when the collection vessel is full, you can fit an Auto Shut Off Kit.

This will come with its own instructions.  Should you have a pump fitted to your system you can fit a High

Pressure Switch, Float Valve and Solenoid.  All these aforementioned parts can be found on our website at

www.ro-man.com

Maintenance

To keep your system producing quality water, please follow the sequence as below.

Flushing the System with the Flush Valve

Ÿ

ALL RO-MAN systems are fitted with a flush valve. This valve is to extend the life of the membrane.

The more often you can put the system in flush mode the better. Daily flushing is ideal but weekly is

sufficient. Simply open the flush valve for 2-3 minutes each time, letting the water blast away any build

up in the membrane.

Filter Changing

Ÿ

The filters need changing every 1000 gallons of product water or 6 months, whichever comes first.

Failure to do so will damage the membrane. We recommended using RO-MAN replacement parts only

to ensure your guarantee.
