    Section 1. Frequently Asked Questions Before getting started, take the time to familiarize yourself with your new Waterite system by reading some FAQs listed below. Call us or ask your dealer if you have any other questions about your system’s operation.

  • Page 4: Section 2. Designing Your Installation

    Q: How much water does the VectaMaxx™ RSR system produce? VectaMaxx™ RSR systems use membranes each nominally rated for 1200 or 2400GPD. Actual output will be dependent upon the factors explained above. In optimal applications (low feed water TDS, feed water =25°C, you may expect 700-1000 (RSR1200) and 1600-2100 (RSR 2400) USG from each membrane to be available over 24 hours.
  • Page 5 precipitate. Concentrations in excess of .05 ppm must be pre-treated with an iron remover (concentrations > 2 ppm) or combination softener (for iron concentrations < 2 ppm); otherwise premature membrane and system equipment failure through iron deposit fouling will result. Manganese: Manganese is a commonly occurring mineral found in ground water.
  • Page 6 corrosion on metallic parts or scaling internal components upstream from the membrane, and likely the membrane itself. Keep in mind that reverse osmosis lowers the pH of the feed water, by up to 1.0, depending on the water chemistry. This will be a consideration for the end use of product water and for the vessels and plumbing system that will be used to store and control it.

    RO unit’s switchbox. Do not break the current at the pump motor, as this will cause the inlet solenoid to remain activated and open when the machine is shut down. Waterite offers an optional factory-installed permeate high pressure cut-off (Waterite P/N RSRPSO) for this application.

A Note on Fittings Your RO system has been equipped with quality compression and push on fittings throughout.
  • Page 11 3. Plumb a connection from the COLD water supply line, ensuring that the feed line is at least 1/2” in diameter. Install a shut off valve on the connection, so that the RO system can by isolated from the main water supply. Note that the inlet connection to your RO system is 1/2”. We recommend that you also install a pipe union near the RO to allow easy disconnection should it be required for maintenance.
  • Page 12 3.5. Complete the Electrical Connection VectaMaxx RSR systems operate using a 120V 20A service and a grounded receptacle. Assure that the power source is rated to the necessary amperage (see page 8) and that the connection meets the local electrical code.

  • Page 13: Section 4: System Set-Up

    Section 4: System Set-Up Set-up of your RO system will be dependent upon the TDS of your feed water. Make sure that you specify the TDS of your feed water at the time the unit is ordered. The system has been shipped with a waste control orifice that will be intended for feed water of less than TDS of 1000.

  • Page 16 4.0 Once the pump is primed, connect the power plug to the electrical source. The system will start in the ON position. Let the system operate for about 5 minutes with the valve fully open. The system is now flushing and clearing any dust or debris from the lines. There should be little or no water production from the machine during this process.

    To change the cartridge, turn off the system’s power and as a safety precaution, close the water supply to the unit. Repeat Step 7 (1) from the installation instructions above. Thoroughly flush and clean the filter housings while they are disassembled. Always use Waterite factory cartridges as replacements.
