OPERATION

NOTE - Automated Operational
Sequence: During operation, touching
STOP at any time immediately stops all
functions of the System. Touch STOP
ONLY in case of an emergency such as
human safety concern, substantial water
leak, electrical safety issue, etc.
AUTOMATIC SEQUENCE
Be prepared for the following automatic sequence. After
the System has been started the following will occur:
1. Booster Pump electric motor will start and a
screen will indicate that it has started.
2. Low Pressure Transducers will signal the System
Control Logic which will look for adequate feed
water pressure from the Booster Pump.
3. After a 20 seconds delay timer, the High Pressure
Pump electric motor will start and a screen will
indicate that it has started.
4. Feed Water Flow Meter will signal the System
Control Logic which will look for adequate feed
water flow through the System.
5. After a 20 seconds delay timer, the Automatic
Back Pressure Regulator will rotate clockwise to
build up operating pressure.
6. Product Water Flow Meter will register product
water flow, as operating pressure exceeds the
osmotic pressure of the feed water. Product Water
Flow will take priority to inform the control logic to
increase or decrease operating pressure in order
to maintain the product water flow specification.
7. Salinity Probe will register the quality of the
Product Water. When the salinity of the Product
Water lowers to the set point the UV Sterilizer will
energize if installed.
8. The 3-Way Product Water Diversion Valve will
energize sending the Product Water to the Post
Filtration section. This may take up to 30 minutes.
9. Feed Pressure, Feed Flow, Operating Pressure,
Brine Flow, Product Flow, and Product Salinity
are all being monitored and the values of
these readings cause the System Control Logic
to perform various tasks to maintain proper
functioning of the System.

10. The System may be manually stopped, or it may
be programmed to stop at a given time or given
volume of Product Water production.
11. If the STOP is touched the System will immediately
stop all functions.
12. When the System is signaled to perform a
non-emergency stop:
a) The Automatic Back Pressure Regulator
Valve will rotate counter clockwise to lower
operating pressure.
b) The 3-Way Product Water Diversion Valve will
revert to unpotable water.
c) The UV Sterilizer will stop.
d) The High Pressure Pump will stop.
e) The Booster Pump will stop.
f) If the System does not include the
Automatic Fresh Water Flush option this
ends the stop sequence.
or
g) If the System includes the Automatic Fresh
Water Flush the Automatic Fresh Water Flush
Valve will energize to Fresh Water.
After 7 to 15 minutes the Fresh Water Flush
Valve will de-energize and the Stop sequence
is complete.
13. The System will go to a Fresh Water Flush Stand-
by mode and count down until the next automatic
Fresh Water Flush Cycle. The Fresh Water Flush
Cycle will automatically initiate every set number
of days until canceled or power is disconnected
from the System.
SYSTEM WARNINGS
PRIOR TO OPERATION AND DURING NON-OPERATION OF
THE SYSTEM, REVIEW AND ADHERE TO THE FOLLOWING
WARNINGS AND RESPECTIVE ACTIONS.
WARNING: The R.O. Membrane
Elements must be kept wet at all times.
WARNING: The System must be
protected from biological fouling if it will
not be operated within the next 2 weeks.
