SYSTEM INSTALLATION & INITIALIZATION: (continued)
6. Attach the blue product line to the rear port (after the “tee”) of the right-hand
DI housing.
7. Attach the black tubing and elbow(s) to the membrane housing cap(s).
8. Attach the garden hose adapter
(connected to the black tubing)
to your
cold water source. Never run hot water (greater than 100° F/38° C) through
the system.
9. Remove the two DI filter cartridges from the two right-hand filter housings.
Reconnect the two housings to their threaded caps. Hand tighten.
10. An optional ball valve can be located at a convenient place on the black tap
water line. Cut the black tubing in two and reconnect the two cut ends with
the ball valve, if desired
11. Place the
yellow concentrate (waste) tubing
and the
blue purified
(product) water tubing
temporarily into a drain. Do not restrict flow from
these lines.
12. Let both tubings run water down the drain for one hour.
13. Reinstall the two DI cartridges into the DI housings. Hand tighten.
14. There are two groups of red, white, and blue sensor wires. At the end of
the wires, you will find a white connector. Just insert the connector into the
receptacle on the top of each TDS monitor. You can then use the Velcro on
the back to mount the meters where ever it’s convenient. For example, even
on a wall for easier viewing.
15. Open the cold water supply valve. The pressure should not exceed 80 psi.
16. Upon startup, air may be trapped in the DI cartridges (housing may not appear
full), this is a normal condition and it will not affect the operation of the DI
system. However, if you later install an ASO Valve/Check Valve/Float Valve for
automatic operation, all air must be kept purged from the housings by slightly
unscrewing the housing(s) and letting the running water displace the air until
the housings are full of water. When full, hand tighten the housings.
17. Set the right-side meter to “OUT” and run the system until that meter reads
zero. The water is now ready to use.
You can set either meter to read either
probe at any time
.
18. Close the cold water supply valve.
19. Finish the installation by directing or connecting the yellow line to a
permanent drain.
20. Check the system to ensure that all fittings are tight and leak-free before
leaving the system unattended. (If anything is leaking, contact SpectraPure
for assistance.)
NOTE: It may take several days of normal operation for the membrane to
reach its full production rate.
CAUTION:
•
Ensure that all fittings are tight and leak-free before leaving the system unattended.
•
The concentrate (waste) line includes a smaller capillary tube (flow restrictor)
that is located “inside” of the tubing. Do not remove or discard this restrictor. The
system will not produce permeate (product) water without the flow restrictor.
