NSTALLATION The DIamond RO utilizes two different types of fittings. Please refer to the installation sections when necessary. Tubing Adapter Installation These instructions will be needed when making connections at the inlet water supply, atmospheric drain and at a storage reservoir.
NSTALLATION Tubing Installation Figure 3 Tubing Installation The following instructions will apply when you need to install the memranes and to attach a piece of tubing to your DIamond RO during installation, unless otherwise noted in the installation instructions. To make tubing connections: COLLET Make sure the tubing is cut off reasonably square and that no plastic burrs or ridges...
NSTALLATION Bench Mounting Warning Do not locate the DIamond RO directly Place DIamond RO on a bench top that is over equipment that requires electrical accessible to water, atmospheric drain and service. Routine maintenance of this electricity, and that is convenient to your unit may involve water spillage and work area, noting clearance requirements.
NSTALLATION Carbon filter Prefilter MPS cartridge Cartridge and Membrane Installation Your DIamond RO has been shipped with a prefilter, car- bon filter, MPS cartridge and one membrane (for 12 lph unit) or two membranes (for 24 lph unit), that you will install.
NSTALLATION Carbon Filter Installation Chlorine can also damage your membranes, resulting in Figure 7 Single Membrane Installation premature membrane failure. Therefore, your DIamond RO uses an extruded carbon filter to remove chlorine from your feed water. Install the carbon filter as follows: Remove the carbon filter (Part Number D502115) from its packaging and wet the o-rings with water.
NSTALLATION 24 LITER PER HOUR UNITS (2 MEMBRANES) Figure 10 Double Membrane Installation Remove the RO membranes from their packaging. Note the location of the FEED, PRODUCT, and REJECT connections on the housing. The correct orientation for the installed membrane will be verti- cal with the FEED connection down.
NSTALLATION Water Connections Product water outlet (to storage) Feedwater Inlet Feed Water Connection Locate the length of .95 cm (3/8”) O.D. tubing provided with a quick disconnect insert on one end and a .95 cm (3/8”) O.D. X .64 cm (1/4”) NPT tubing adapter on the other.

Initial Operation Electrical Connection Fuse Draw The DIamond RO comes with two power cords. Each power cord is supplied with a set (2) of fuses (attached to each cord). Choose the cord that applies to you. The DIamond RO is not shipped with fuses installed in the fuse draw of the power entry module.
Normal Operation Normal Unit Operation Below is a brief description of the normal automatic opera- tion of the DIamond RO. If the unit does not operate as described below, refer to the troubleshooting guide. When you activate the main power switch, the following events will occur: All LEDs will sequentially flash, to indicate that they work.
ORMAL PERATION While the unit is flushing, the “UNIT FLUSHING” and “OPERATING/STBY” LED lights will remain lit and membrane pressure will drop. The flush can be terminated at any time by pressing the flush button. Resetting the Carbon Timer The red “Replace Carbon Filter” light on your control panel Note illuminates when it is time to replace the carbon filter.
ORMAL PERATION Prefilter Outlet—Provides the pressure reading of the water exiting the prefilter. If there is a 5 psig pressure differential between this reading and the prefilter inlet reading, or if there are visible particulates in the sec- ond position, MPS filter, the prefilter should be replaced.
Maintenance General Cleaning Instructions Wipe exterior surfaces with lightly dampened cloth containing Warning mild soap solution. Disconnect from the power supply prior to maintenance and servicing. Main Fuse Replacement Refer servicing to qualified person- nel. Turn off the DIamond RO and disconnect it from the power supply by removing the power cord directly below the I/O switch.
AINTENANCE Disconnect the product to storage tubing at the reservoir and route to drain. Membrane Rinse- Restart unit and allow it to operate and send water to drain for a minimum of two hours. This will rinse the membrane(s) of its preservatives. It is possible that during this time the “Low Product Purity”...
AINTENANCE MPS Replacement The MPS cartridge incorporated in your DIamond RO is designed to prevent scale buildup on the membrane(s). This cartridge must be replaced when the anti-scalant level is approximately half dissolved. At this point, the quantity of anti- scalant entering the water is insufficient to effectively prevent scale accummulation on the membrane(s).
Troubleshooting Guide Problem/Symptom Possible Causes Solutions DIamond RO completely • No electrical power to DIamond RO • Ensure DIamond RO powercord is inactive (controls not operating and installed and connected to live power no LEDs illuminated). • Blown Power Entry Fuses •...

Where practical, Barnstead International recommends the fre- quency of replacement, or provides information on life expectancy from which you may calculate a replacement interval compatible with your usage pattern.
General maintenance parts are defined as laboratory level repair parts which do not require great expertise or spe- cial tools for installation. Barnstead International recommends that you stock the general maintenance parts as an aid to ensuring the continued operation of this equipment.
