FINAL TUBING CONNECTIONS
With all system components now properly installed, final tubing connections may be completed.
1.
Trim dispenser tubing to proper length and insert 1/4” white tubing from Pharmate
®
Dispenser into 1/4” Tee Union
connector above Product Water “Out” probe.
2.
From faucet, connect 1/4” green Faucet Air Gap Tube to 1/4” union connector fitting on end of Red SFC Flow
Control Tube originating from membrane. Trim green Faucet Air Gap Tubing to shorter length if desired.
NOTE: DO NOT alter length of Red SFC Flow Control tubing.
Factory set length is critical for proper functioning of system flow rate.
3.
Route 3/8” Black Brine Tube from Air Gap Faucet to Drain Line Adapter so it slopes downward with no dips, sags,
or loops in tubing. Trim tubing to appropriate length and insert into “Push-In” fitting on the Drain Line Adapter
connector elbow.
• Tubing runs should generally follow contour of cabinet and not interfere with cabinet storage area.
• Use of clips, ties, and fasteners help create neat and orderly tubing routings under sink area.
• Avoid sharp bends or kinks, and leave “play” in tubing lengths for ease of future servicing.
OPERATION OF “PUSH-IN” TUBING CONNECTORS
Figure 9
This product is outfitted with user friendly “Push-In” connectors. Proper use of “Push-In” connectors is shown in
Figure 9. Tubing selected for use with connectors should be of high quality, exact size and roundness, and have no
surface nicks or scratches. If it is necessary to cut tubing, use tubing cutter tool or sharp razor knife. Make clean
square cuts on ends of all tubing. Should a leak occur at a “Push-In” connector, the cause is usually defective tubing.
To Remedy:
•
Relieve pressure
•
Release tubing
•
Cut off at least 1/4” from end
•
Reattach tubing
