Float Valve Installation - SpectraPure Mega MaxCap Installation And Operating Manual

SpectraPure
SYSTEM INSTALLATION & INITIALIZATION: (cont.)
11. Insert the connectors at the end of the red, white and blue sensor wires into
the tops of the TDS meters. You can then use the Velcro on the back to mount
the meters wherever it is convenient. You may mount the meters on the
system itself (as shown) or on a wall for easier viewing.
12. Open the cold water supply valve. The pressure should not exceed 80 psi.
13. Upon startup, air may be trapped in the DI cartridges (housings 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 the 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.
14. Close the cold water supply valve.
15. Finish the installation by directing or connecting the yellow line to a
permanent drain.
16. Install the included Float Valve onto a collection reservoir. (See below.)
17. Attach the blue line to the Float Valve.
18. 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.)
19. It may take several days of normal operation for the membrane to reach its full
production rate.

FLOAT VALVE INSTALLATION:

1. Drill a 1/2" hole near the top of your reservoir.
NOTE: If you are installing the Float Valve onto an acrylic tank we recommend
using a new Fostner Bit to reduce the chance of cracking the acrylic.
2. (Refer to Diagram on Page 12) Remove the Compression Nut from the float
body.
3. Insert the 1/4" Blue Tubing into the 1/2" Compression Nut with the threads
towards the end of the tube.
4. Unscrew and remove the remaining nut from the float body.
5. Insert the float body and washer into the 1/2" hole and tighten the nut, which
securely tightens the float to the tank wall.
6. Push the Compression Nut towards the end of the tubing and screw the
Compression Nut back onto the float body.
7. To tighten, use one 1/2" wrench on the flats of the plastic threads and another
1/2" wrench on the Compression Nut.
