METERING AND DIAGNOSTICS:
This SpectraPure purification system has been fully equipped with sufficient
instrumentation to make monitoring and troubleshooting an easy process.
The provided pressure gauge is used to determine the tap water pressure
and to evaluate the condition of the sediment and carbon prefilters.
USING THE PRESSURE GAUGE
The pressure gauge is used to monitor the condition of the Sediment and
Carbon Prefilters
(not the RO Membrane)
. When the filters are new,
the gauge will indicate the actual available house water pressure. As the
filters collect particulates, the pressure will begin to drop. A 15 -20% (or
more) drop in pressure would indicate that the prefilters are in need of
replacement.
USING THE DUAL-PROBE TDS METER (DM1 METER)
The digital TDS meter (dual probe) will provide a reliable means of
evaluating the performance of the RO membrane. The numbers from the
two probe readings can be used to calculate the percentage of rejection
of the (TFC) RO membrane.
The “IN” position of the switch relates to the “IN” probe installed on the
black tap water line before the RO membrane.
The “OUT” position of the switch relates to the “OUT” probe installed on
the blue RO product water line after the RO membrane.
Warning!!:
The DM1 TDS Meter does not detect the presence of CO2, silica, organic
contaminants or microorganisms, nor should it be used as a medical or
scientific instrument. It should be used as an indicator or guide only,
and does not imply that the water is safe for human consumption. No
application other than monitoring the electrical conductivity of water is
expressed or implied.
