SECTION 1: INSTALLATION
Your system includes:
•
The main RO/filter assembly frame with one assembled pre-filter, booster pump, membrane housing(s), flow controls,
pressure gauges, flow meters and TDS meter.
•
One, two, three or four pre-installed membrane(s) and one 5-micron polypropylene sediment cartridge
•
One sediment filter housing wrench
•
One Owner’s package including owner’s manual and warranty certificate.
Locate your unit’s model and serial numbers, as well as voltage on the back of
the gauge panel, behind the controller. You can enter this information on the
form on page 22 for quick reference.
See: Section 6 for electrical requirements for auxiliary input connections to
the RO controller.
Your RO system has been equipped with quality threaded and push-on
fittings throughout. All compression fittings should be hand-tightened and then
tightened ¼ turn further with a wrench. Check that all fittings are snug, as they
may have loosened in transit. Do not over-tighten as damage may occur to the
internal gasket on the threaded hose assemblies.
Completing and securing a push-on connection is simple. First, the tubing
should be cut square and any burrs or rough edges removed. Insert the
tube firmly and push until the tube end contacts the stop. Gently tug the tube
backwards to assure a secure connection. To disconnect, pull the tube while
pushing in the collet ring. Fittings may be disconnected and re-connected, if
necessary.
1.1. Selecting the System Location
1.
The filter housing will need periodic maintenance - easy access must be maintained. Do not install in a location with high
humidity, direct sunlight or a direct source of heat. Typically, a commercial mechanical room is ideal. Never expose the RO
unit to freezing temperatures or direct sunlight.
2. The unit will need to be installed in a location that has access to 230/208VAC power, a feed water line, a drain capable of
handling the waste flow from the machine and close to the storage tank.
3. Make sure the feed water source is capable of constant feed water delivery between 40 psi and 60 psi maximum. Your RO
system has been equipped with an emergency low pressure shut-off. If the line pressure to your RO inlet falls below 20 psi.
this will keep the drive pump from running dry and damage occurring to its internal components.
1.2. Feed Water Connection
1. Inspect the feed water supply line and the condition of the pipe. Ensure that the supply pipe is in good overall condition and
can deliver the system’s necessary feed water flow rate. See:
or specified feed water flow rate requirements.
Do
not use hot water as feed water.
2. Turn the water supply line to your plumbing OFF.
3. Position the unit as necessary and use the threaded feet at the base of the RO stand to level the unit. Remember to leave
access to the filter and membranes for maintenance.
4.
Install the hammer arrestor assembly into the port on the filter housing.
5.
Connect black ¼” poly line from pressure gauge to the fitting on hammer arrestor assembly.
6. Connect the water supply line, ensuring that the feed line is at least ¾” in diameter (1” for RSL 9600 and RSLHP9600). Note:
The inlet connection to your RO system is 1” FNPT. A pipe union in the feed water supply line to allow easy disconnection is
recommended. (Figure 3).
7.
Install a shut off valve on the connection, so that the RO system can by isolated from the main water supply during maintenance.
