    SpectraPure ® PREPARATION 1. CHOOSING THE BEST MOUNTING LOCATION: LIGHT SOURCE: Algae is more likely to thrive inside clear housings when exposed to ultraviolet light and other sources like metal halide lighting. Avoid installing the unit in bright light or direct sunlight.
  • Page 9: Setup Procedures

    SpectraPure ® SETUP PROCEDURES STEP 1: INSTALLATION OF THE HIGH & LOW FLOAT SWITCHES: A. Install both the High and Low Floats onto an open container, such as a Rubbermaid trash can. The floats ® can be mounted by drilling a 5/8" hole. The white washer should be located on the inside of the reservoir.
  • Page 10: Installing The Float Valve

    SpectraPure ® SETUP PROCEDURES (continued) STEP 3: INSTALL THE FLOAT VALVE near the top of the reservoir. This will act as a fill valve and as a safety backup float. The Float Valve should be mounted higher than the High Float and offset to one side so that it does not interfere with the High Float when the reservoir is being filled.

    SpectraPure ® SETUP PROCEDURES (continued) STEP 5: Direct the waste line (yellow) to a drain or connect it permanently to a drain pipe via a Drain Saddle. (Drain Saddle is not included with system.) CAUTION An extremely long drain line may cause excessive back pressure on the system. For drain lines longer than 10 feet, 3/8"...
  • Page 12: Erratic Operation Warning

    SpectraPure ® SETUP PROCEDURES (continued) ERRATIC OPERATION Erratic operation can almost always be determined to be caused by the electric floats or the wires connecting them to the control module. Here is a test to determine if the problem lies with the floats or the control module. Disconnect the 3 pin cable to the floats at the control module.
  • Page 13: Maintenance Procedures

    SpectraPure ® MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES Maintenance and troubleshooting procedures have been made easy and effective with a combination of the two dual- probe TDS meters and a built-in pressure gauge. It is recommended that you keep replacement cartridges on hand, ready to install as soon as the monitor indicates that the cartridge in use is exhausted.

    SpectraPure ® MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES (continued) CARBON BLOCK PREFILTER REPLACEMENT For maximum contaminant removal and long membrane life, the Carbon prefilter must be changed when the Chlorine Test Kit shows more than 0.1ppm of chlorine in the waste water stream. Materials Required: 0.5 micron Carbon Block Filter (CF-0.5-10), Filter Wrench, Chlorine Test Kit (TK- CL-10 - KIT) Procedure: (SECOND FILTER ON LEFT WHEN FACING SYSTEM) 1.
  • Page 15: Reverse Osmosis Membrane Production Calculation

    SpectraPure ® MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES (continued) REVERSE OSMOSIS MEMBRANE PRODUCTION CALCULATION Actual production of a membrane is dependent on two factors: Tap Water Pressure and Tap Water Temperature. In order to characterize a membrane, there must be common testing data. Industry standards for testing membrane performance are: 60 PSI tap water pressure and 77°...
  • Page 16: Reverse Osmosis Membrane Replacement

    SpectraPure ® MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES (continued) REVERSE OSMOSIS MEMBRANE REPLACEMENT 1. Turn off the water supply to the RO system and unplug the transformer. Place the system where the membrane housing is easily accessible. 2. Remove the black tubing from the membrane feed push fitting by depressing the collar on the fitting with your thumb and pulling the tubing from the push fitting.
