cartridge. Use only genuine RS-1SG purification cartridges, manufactured by General
Ecology, Inc. for the highest level of protection against waterborne disease.
Cartridge Replacement Instructions
All Seagull
®
IV X-1 units employ a RS-1SG Cartridge. The rated average capacity for the RS-1SG
Cartridge is 1,000 gallons. Actual capacity will vary depending on operating conditions and the quality
of the water source. Cartridges should be replaced when the flow rate decreases or when foul tastes or
odors become apparent, or annually otherwise. Installing a Cartridge is easily accomplished as follows:
A. Close cold water supply valve.
B. Open Faucet, and keep it open until new
Cartridge is installed and operating.
C. Remove unit from Mounting Bracket,
place over a large sauce pan or other
container, remove V-Clamp and drain
loose water from Pressure Vessel. (If
Pressure Vessel halves remain attached
due to “set,” pull apart manually or
momentarily allow a small amount of
water to flow into the unit with the faucet
closed to separate the halves. If faucet
is closed, be sure and reopen before
continuing with next step).
D. Remove expended Cartridge by placing
plastic bag over it and turning counter
clockwise. Close bag and discard. Rinse
inside of Pressure Vessel with water and
wipe clean with paper towel. Be sure thick
Rubber Cartridge Seal is bonded in place
inside the top of the unit.
E. Align carefully, and being careful not to
cross thread, thread new Cartridge into
place
UNTIL CONTACT IS FIRST MADE
WITH DARK BLUE CARTRIDGE GASKET,
THEN TIGHTEN ONE QUARTER TURN
ONLY. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Please
refer to Step 2 and Figure 2.
Reassemble the two stainless steel
halves together, making sure the dark
blue Housing Gasket is in place between
the two halves.
IMPORTANT: Make sure
Gasket is not cut or nicked, and be sure
housing has not been dropped or dented
on either of the two mating halves.
F. Refer to Step 11 to place unit back in
service.

If you have difficulty separating the upper and
lower halves of the pressure vessel, water
pressure can help. Turn off cold water supply;
remove the V-clamp and close the pure water
faucet. With a pan ready to catch water from the
unit,
slowly turn on the water supply. Once the
unit begins to separate, turn off the water supply
and proceed according to your
Installation and
Operations instructions.
You may apply a light coating of petroleum jelly
to the housing gasket to assure ease of opening
and closing of the system.
When a new cartridge is put into service, you
may see air bubbles and black particles in the
water until the system has stabilized. These are
harmless and will be purged from the system
within the first few gallons of water.
