USEFUL TIP: The V
2
Pure RO System is supplied with a drain saddle clamp (27) which can be
installed on a suitable section of 1
water and drains away easily for example a section of waste pipe beneath a kitchen sink) and
used to make a permanent connection for the RO reject water tubing.
To install the drain saddle clamp follow the steps below (see photo 10):-
a. Position the saddle clamp on a suitable section of 1
waste pipe where the RO flexible tubing (RED reject water tubing) will be entering the
waste pipe.
b. Using a 6mm drill bit, carefully drill a hole in the waste pipe.
c. Re-position and secure the saddle clamp ensuring that the foam seal in the saddle clamp is
located correctly. Please Note: Failure to do so
could result in operating problems and/or leaks.
d. Carefully unscrew the hosetail locking nut on the
drain saddle clamp reject water inlet hosetail and
thread the end of the RO flexible tubing (RED reject
water tubing) (25) through the hole in the end of the
locking nut, and insert this end into the saddle clamp
reject water inlet hosetail.
e. Tighten and secure the drain saddle clamp reject
water inlet hosetail locking nut.
Please Note: The RO system MUST be stored at
temperatures above 0° C. Temperatures below 0° C
will destroy the RO membrane and filtration components.
OPER TION
1. Ensure all connections have been made correctly and
are tight and secure.
2. Turn on the mains water supply.
3. Carefully unscrew the T bar on the "C" clamp water
connection fitting (see photo 11) to allow mains water
to enter the RO system.
4. Check to ensure that there are no leaks. If leaks are
found, immediately tighten the T bar on the "C" clamp
water connection fitting to stop the water supply to
the RO system and then turn off the mains water supply.
5. Rectify any leaks and then repeat steps 1 to 4 above.
6. Once the water enters the RO system, water may
initially only be seen to exit through the RED reject water tubing (25) - this is perfectly
normal. However, after a few moments water should start to exit through the BLUE pure
water tubing (24).
Caution: For the first 30-60 minutes of operation all water collected should be disposed
of and not used because the pure water may still contain contaminants in this early stage
of operation.
Please Note: You may hear a faint hissing sound from the flow restrictor fitted on this
RO System. It is perfectly normal and the noise occurs due to the flow restrictor reducing
the water flow through the RO membrane to ensure that the RO membrane is not
overburdened and the flow through the membrane is at its optimum.
7. The RO system should be operated as and when pure water is required but in order to
prevent contamination of the filter components, it is recommended that the RO system is
operated at least every 1- 2 weeks.
8. It is also advised, if the RO system is switched on after an extended period of not being in
operation, that the membrane is immediately flushed for approximately 15-20 minutes (see
procedure 2 in 'maintenance' below) and that all water collected in the first 30-60 minutes
after flushing should be disposed of and not used.
9. Never allow the RO membrane to dry out as this will result in damage to the RO membrane.
10. It is strongly advised not to leave the RO system running unattended for any length of time
in case leaks or other operating problems occur.
