System Operation
When the power switch it turned ON, the status LED will light Green, the inlet valve with OPEN and, after a
5-second delay, the RO pump will start.
Under normal operation, the RO unit will run until: (A) the storage tank is full (status LED Amber) or (B) Pretreat
lockout has occurred (status LED flashing Green). When A or B has cleared, after a time delay, the RO unit
will restart, and the status LED will return to Green. Jumper setting J-6 selects a 2-second or 15-minute tank
full restart time delay.
Upon an alarm signal for Pressure Fault, the status LED will turn RED, the RO pump will stop, and the inlet
valve will close.
If jumper J-4 and J-5 are in Position B (disabled), the status LED will flash RED and the RO unit will not restart
until the Power Switch has been manually cycled OFF and then ON to reset the unit.
If jumper J-4 is in Position A (auto reset), every 60 minutes the controller will check the pressure fault and
either stay OFF or START accordingly.
If J-5 is in Position A (pressure fault retry), the RO unit will attempt to restart after 30 seconds, then 5 minutes,
then 30 minutes.
If the pressure alarm has not cleared after the third attempt, the RO unit will remain off until manually reset.
If jumper J-4 and J-5 are in Position A, after a pressure fault condition, the RO unit will continually attempt to
restart after each 60-minute cycle until the pressure switch input has cleared.
If jumper J-8 is in Position A, the RO unit will flush every 24 hours of elapsed time. If jumper J-8 is in Position
B, the RO unit will flush on tank full. During Flush, the inlet and flush valves are open and the RO pump is
On. The flush time is 5 minutes. The status LED will double-flash AMBER.
1. There are live circuits inside the controller even when the power switch on the front panel is in
the OFF position. Never open the front panel without first disconnecting power from the outlet.
Prewired controllers are supplied with an 8 foot, 18 AWG power cord with USA style plug. A #1
Phillips driver is required to open the front panel.
2. Low voltage signal wires (probes, flow switch, water meter, etc.) should never be run
in conduit with high voltage (like 115VAC) wires.
3. Never attempt to land connections to the controller without first disconnecting power from the outlet.
4. Do not block access to disconnect power during mounting and installation.
5. The controller should be connected to its own isolated circuit breaker, and for best
results, the ground should be a true earth ground, not shared. Any attempt to bypass the grounding
will compromise the safety of users and property.
6. The electrical installation of the controller must be performed by trained personnel only and
conform to all applicable National, State and Local codes.
7. Operation of this product in a manner not specified by the manufacturer may result in damage
to equipment or persons.
8. Avoid mounting in locations that expose the controller to direct sunlight, vapors, vibration,
liquid spills or extreme temperatures; less than 0°F (-17.8°C) or greater than 120°F (50°C).
EMI(electromagnetic interference) from radio transmissions and electric motors can also cause
damage or interference and should be avoided.
