1.2 Proper use
The RoMatik XS reverse osmosis unit serves for the treatment (demineralisation) of
cold raw water (max. 35 °C) for ultimate use in commercial warewashers. The
RoMatik XS reduces the overall salt content of the raw water. The treated water is
comparable to the purity of distilled water.
The quality of the raw water must conform to the requirements of the German potable
water ordinance. In addition, limits must be respected (
9).
The device may only be used in connection with a commercial warewasher.
The device is a technical device for commercial use and is not intended for private
use.
1.3 Improper
use
The raw water treated with the RoMatik XS may not be utilized as drinking water.
This device is not intended for use by persons (including children) with limited
physical, sensory or mental capabilities or who do not have the required experience
with and knowledge of this device. Such persons must either be instructed by a
supervisor who is responsible for their safety or must be supervised during the
operation of the device.
Winterhalter Gastronom GmbH does not assume liability or warranty in the event that
the device is used improperly.
1.4 Requirements for the warewasher connected to the device
The RoMatik XS may only be used in connection with a commercial warewasher with
a pressure independent boiler. Operation on warewashers with pressure boilers in
conjunction with a diaphragm pressurised boiler is possible (see Connection
diagram). The yield is reduced, however, and the fill time of the warewasher is
extended.
All components of the warewasher which come into contact with water must be
suitable for osmosis water. Use of non-ferrous metals is not permitted. Only synthetic
components and stainless steel components may be utilized.
1.5 General safety notes
Carefully read the safety notes and operating instructions. Winterhalter Gastronom
GmbH does not assume liability or warranty in case of non-adherence to these safety
notes.
Use the device only after you have read and understood the operating instructions.
Allow the Winterhalter Customer Service Department to provide information about the
operation and function. Always operate the RoMatik XS as described in these
operating instructions.
Train the operating personnel as regards handling the RoMatik XS and inform them
about the safety notes. Repeat the training sessions at regular intervals to prevent
accidents.
Keep the operating instructions accessible.
Do not make changes, additions or reconstructions without the approval of the
manufacturer.
Danger of electric shock: Do not open any covers if it requires tools. Do not
manipulate the electrical components of the device yourself, always call a
professional (electrical technician).
Disconnect the water supply immediately if the device becomes leaky at any location.
Pull the mains plug in order to disconnect the power to the device and close the water
stop cock.
In case of danger and/or defects, switch off the device immediately. Pull the plug.
Only then is the device without power.
Do not insert the plug or pull it out with wet hands.
Pull the plug from the outlet only by the plug, not using the cord.
Contact the Winterhalter Customer Service in case of defects that are not caused due
to the on-site water or electricity supply. Switch on the RoMatik XS again when the
defect has been resolved
For your safety, test the on-site residual-current circuit breaker (FI) regularly by
pressing the test button.
2 Before working with the RoMatik XS
Have the device connected to water supply and the sewer as per the locally
applicable standards and the regulations of the authorised mechanics. For more
information, please see page 8.
Have the device installed and commissioned by an authorised service technician.
Have yourself and your operating personnel trained in the operation of the device.
3 Product
description
The water treatment of this device is based on the principle of reverse osmosis
(mechanical filtration). First, the water passes through an active charcoal filter that filters
out chlorine and sediment. The water is then forced at high pressure through two
membranes, so that about 98 % of the content is removed. The treated water is
comparable to distilled water.
