Water Supply
Precondition for action:
A minimum cold water supply pressure of 1.5 bar is required for the water softener to operate correctly.
A verifiable double check valve or pipe disconnector is installed in the drinking water supply and fitted upstream of the entire
HYPROLYSER
®
System and any water softening equipment, if the local regulations require it.
A pressure reducing valve should be fitted to the water supply if the supply pressure is greater than 8.0 bar.
Auto Regenerative Water Softener
A hydraulically operated duplex water softener is provided with the Hyprolyser 240 / 480 models. It must be installed in all
circumstances.
Precondition for action:
Suitable water supply available
Perform the following steps:
1.
Install the softener unit on a firm level base within easy reach of the HYPROLYSER
®
system and near to a local waste
water drain point.
2.
Follow the general installation instructions. Ensure the softener is fitted with isolation valves on the inlet and outlet
connections in order to facilitate future maintenance of the unit.
3.
A softened water sample tap should be fitted to the pipe-work between the water softener and the Hyprolyser to enable
regular testing of the softened water.
4.
Connect the softener’ water outlet to the HYPROLYSER
®
using the ½”BSPm x 8mmOD tube adaptor supplied with the
system. Use flexible 8mmOD tubing to connect to the 8mmOD inlet fitting of the HYPROLYSER
®
unit.
Product Tank
The HYPROLYSER
®
Compact 240/ 480 models are provided with an integrated product tank of 200 litres capacity. The product
tank is pre-plumbed and wet tested at the factory.
Installation of Dosing Pumps
IMPORTANT: Dosing pumps should not be mounted directly onto the product tank. A wall or floor mounted bracket/shelf should
be used. A suction line grommet in chemical resistant PVC (4 provided) must be used when installing the dosing pump suction
lines to ensure the air tightness of the tank.
Damage or failure of the system due to incorrect installation of dosing pumps.
The Hyprolyser system will not operate if the air tightness of the product tank or ventilation system is compromised.
Always use the correct suction line grommet and installation method for each pump suction line and pressure relief line
.
Mount the dosing pumps on a wall or floor mounted bracket.
