Before Beginning Installation
Water Conditions - Pre-treatment Parameters
Note this section is designed to ensure the optimal performance of your
Upstream system. Please review the following pre-treatment parameters prior to
installation.
If any specifications are of concern or unclear please contact your water
treatment dealer or specialist. Note some of the information below is technical in
nature and you may want to contact your water treatment specialist to review the
parameters.
IMPORTANT - Should any of the following water parameters exceed the
recommended limits; the system will not be serviceable under warranty.
Water Parameters for Treating Drinking Water :
The minimum water requirements for operating the Upstream system are:
 UV Transmittance (UVT) – see Product Specification Table. It is
recommended for the water to be tested for UV transmittance in any
applications using cisterns, surface water or ground water under the
influence of surface water.

Total Dissolved solids (TDS) - must be less than or equal to 1000
mg/L (mg/L=ppm)
 Level of turbidity - or cloudiness - of less than or equal to 1 NTU
(nephelometric turbidity unit). A 5 micron sediment filter is
recommended before the unit to reduce turbidity (the presence of a filter
will also simplify disinfection of plumbing – see Disinfecting the
Plumbing). For surface waters, a dual gradient pre-filter (75x25 or 50x5)
is recommended.
 For temperature, pressure range, and other specifications, please see
Product Specification Table.
The Upstream units include a flow regulating device that will limit the flow rate.
Warning: Removal of this device may allow the water flow to exceed the
validated performance of the system which therefore may not provide the
necessary UV dose to inactivate all pathogens.
Safety Information
WARNING: Potential Shock Hazard
Use only a grounded electrical outlet when connecting the unit to a
power source. If you do not know whether the outlet is grounded,
check with a qualified electrician. If an extension cord is necessary, the
cord should contain a ground and be rated for the same amperage as
the unit or combined units. The piping connected to the Upstream unit
must also be properly grounded. Do not plug in unit if water is present
on the unit.
