Before you undertake any trip…
It is important that you follow these few
simple steps.
•
Ensure that the cartridge is correctly
and firmly in place. (‘How to install
or replace a LIFESAVER bottle UF
cartridge’ - page 10)
•
Flush the bottle through a couple
of times with clean water in order to
check the flow rates.
•
Check the pump is working
smoothly and add a small amount
of silicone grease (provided)
to the piston head as required.
(‘Maintenance and care’ - page 14)
Failure to do this will result in the
premature wearing of the o-ring.
•
Ensure that you have installed a
new activated carbon filter.
•
Perform a membrane integrity
check. (page 15)
Keep the membranes wet…
After first using the LIFESAVER bottle
you must keep the membranes wet.
When storing the LIFESAVER bottle
between uses/trips you should leave
a small amount of water within the
bottle (25 ml or so). This will keep the
membranes inside the cartridge wet
and in good working order. DO NOT
allow the membranes to dry out.
iMPOrTaNT!
Always keep bottle cap firmly screwed
on when in the field. Do not remove
bottle cap unless changing the carbon
filter or the LIFESAVER cartridge and
then only after following instructions
(see instructions below).
The bottle cap should remain tightly
closed at all times. This holds the
LIFESAVER cartridge firmly in place
and ensures that contaminated water
does not enter the clean water side of
the bottle.
iMPOrTaNT!
After first use you must keep the
membranes wet. Failure to do so will
cause the nano-meter pores to close
up and the system will shut down. This
is not covered under your warranty
and you will need to purchase another
cartridge.
