SpectraPure ® FEED SUPPLY VALVE INSTALLATION STEP 1. Follow the cold water line from shutoff valve to the existing faucet and unscrew the threaded connection. STEP 2. Insert feed supply valve between cold water line and existing connection. STEP 3. Follow the assembly sequence shown for attaching valve to the existing cold water line.
Membrane Warranty. In order to maximize the life of your SpectraPure RO Membrane, you may need to adjust the ratio of the concentrate to purified water. If not enough concentrate is allowed to flow past the membrane during operation, the impurities will precipitate out on the membrane surface, clogging the RO Membrane.
SpectraPure ® FLOW RESTRICTOR REMOVAL, ADJUSTMENT AND REPLACEMENT 1. Locate the yellow concentrate tubing. Remove the tubing from its push fitting at the membrane as follows: a.) Firmly depress and hold the push fitting collar down with your thumbnail. b.) While the push fitting collar is depressed, pull the tubing straight out of the push fitting. Once the tubing is removed, release the collar.
SpectraPure ® AIR GAP FAUCET INSTALLATION A. Place the chrome counter plate and rubber washer over the threaded shaft and barbed nipples on the faucet (Refer to Figure 3 below). B. Pass the Blue 3/8" tubing, the Yellow 1/4" tubing, and the Black 3/8" tubing up through the drilled countertop hole and temporarily secure them so they don’t fall back through the hole.
SpectraPure ® DRAIN SADDLE INSTALLATION 1. Refer to Figure 7 and determine the location for the drain saddle assembly and drain hole. It must be located above the “P” trap (“U” shaped bend in drain pipe) on the sink side of the drain pipe.
SpectraPure ® INSTALLING BALL VALVE ON TANK STEP 1. If there is not Teflon tape applied to the nipple on the tank, wrap (7-12 turns) around the pipe threads (MPT) on the Stainless Steel fitting. STEP 2. Thread the Ball Valve (supplied in the parts bag) onto the stainless steel nipple on top of the tank.
SpectraPure ® ICE MAKER HOOKUP (OPTIONAL) 1. Turn off feed supply valve and the ball valve on tank. 2. Locate the Blue tube that leads to the faucet. 3. Cut the tube and reconnect the cut ends with a 3/8" x 3/8" x 1/4" Tee.
SpectraPure ® MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES Prefilter Replacement For maximum contaminant removal and long membrane life, the sediment and carbon prefilters should be changed at 6-month intervals. If your water contains a great deal of sediment or chlorine, the prefilters might have to be changed at more frequent intervals to maintain an adequate production rate.
SpectraPure ® MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES (continued) Post Filter Replacement Maintenance Regime: At least once every 12 months or whenever odor or bad taste occurs. Materials Needed: Replacement Carbon Post Filter (CF-0.5-10) Procedure: 1. Turn off feed supply valve and tank shutoff valve.
SpectraPure ® MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES (continued) SANITIZING THE DRINKING WATER SYSTEMS Sanitizing is recommended at least once every year or if water smells or tastes bad, even after a post carbon filter replacement. A convenient time for sanitization is during a filter changeout. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU HAVE CLEAN HANDS WHILE HANDLING INNER PARTS OF THE SYSTEM.
SpectraPure ® CALCULATING EXPECTED OUTPUT FROM THE MEMBRANE Membranes produce the rated gallons per day (GPD) at 60 psi (4.1 bars) operating pressure, 77°F (25°C) operating temperature and 500 ppm total dissolved solids. Membrane output gallons per day (GPD) depends on operating pressure, water temperature and the ppm TDS in the feed water.
SpectraPure ® TESTING THE QUALITY OF THE MEMBRANE The performance of a RO membrane is measured in terms of its rejection characteristics. Note:Test the quality of the membrane once every 6 months. Method 1: Using a test kit The rejection of the membrane is measured using the following procedure: 1.
