the System for Installation”
Step 2 for use in this section.
See Installation Diagrams on page 12 for additional
information.
Step 1 -
The system must be installed in a vertical position.
Place the system in the desired location. Make sure that the
mounting surface is level and sturdy enough to support the
weight of the system while in operation.
Step 2 -
Prepare the filter housing for installation by first
unthreading and removing the union nuts of both the inlet and
outlet ports in a counterclockwise motion. Install the plumbing
adaptor O-ring into the O-ring grove of each inlet and outlet port,
attach plumbing adaptors and reattach union nuts tightening
hand tight only, DO NOT use wrenches. DO NOT use thread
sealant of any kind on the union threads. Use only silicone
lubricant on O-rings.
Note:
System has an optional outlet port to accommodate
different plumbing arrangements. Outlet plumbing adaptor can
be relocated to optional outlet port if desired.
Step 3 -
Using a primer and glue system approved for pres-
surized PVC potable water plumbing applications, install the 2"
Male Glue X 1" FNPT PVC plumbing bushings into the inlet and
outlet plumbing adaptors.

Step 4 -
Apply plumbing tape to the inlet thread of the 1" inline
flow meter. An arrow on the flow meter indicates the direction of

system outlet plumbing port with the arrow pointing in the direction
of flow. Hand tighten only, clockwise, DO NOT use wrenches.
