Sterlitech SEPA CF CELL Assembly & Operation Manual page 8

To assemble the Sepa CF Cell Body:
1. Connect the concentrate flow control valve to the cell bottom by wrapping PTFE tape
around the valve's male NPT end and screwing it into the concentrate outlet port.
Note: The cell bottom is the half of the cell body that has the four alignment pins. The
cell top has the holes to accept the alignment pins.
2. Install the O-rings into the grooves on the cell bottom and wet them with a small
amount of water or the fluid to be processed.
Caution:
Make sure the O-rings lie flat in the grooves of the cell bottom. Leaking may
occur if the O-rings do not lie flat in the grooves. The O-rings will be cut or crushed when
the system is operating if the O-rings are not installed correctly.
3. Place a shim, if needed, in the cavity inside of the inner O-ring.
