REFILLABLE DEIONISATION CARTRIDGE INSTALLATION
1. Begin by removing the bottom cap from the cartridge and setting the cap & foam insert aside.
2. With the cartridge on a
fl
at working surface, begin
fi
lling the cartridge with DI resin by slowly
shaking and tapping the bag, avoiding any spills.
3. Once you have
fi
lled the cartridge 3/4 of the way, stop and give the cartridge a few taps on a
bench top to make sure that the resin is compacted as tightly as possible.
4. Continue
fi
lling the cartridge. Once completed, tap it a few more times to ensure it is packed
tightly, making sure that you have left enough room for the foam insert and cap to replaced,
about 0.5-1cm.
5. Make sure the threads are clear of any resin beads before replacing the bottom cap. This will
make it easier to screw back on as well as ensure a water tight seal.
6. Using the palm of your hand, apply even pressure to the cap whilst screwing it back on.
7. When installing the DI cartridge into the housing, ensure that the cap is on the bottom with the
rubber seal facing up.
Packing the resin as tightly as possible is critically important to reduce the risk of
channelling during the production of water. Channeling will allow high TDS water to
bypass the the resin during water production.
