pump / motor assemblies, membranes, cartridge prefilter and other serviceable components. Allow at least four (4) feet of
clearance at the top end of the membrane housings for future membrane replacement.
The unit must be located near a drain able to accommodate up to 10 GPM. This is in addition to any other equipment
sharing the drain.
A grounded power supply of the appropriate voltage matching your system model’s voltage with 15 amp fuse protection
and a local disconnect switch is required.
Caution:
The system must not be located near any corrosive chemicals, or in an area where the
temperature may exceed 113°F (45°C).
Warning:
The system must be properly grounded to avoid injury from electrical shock.
