Inline Tds Monitor - Reo-Pure LP3 Series User Manual

INLINE TDS TEST MONITOR
THE INLINE TDS TEST MONITOR
The INLINE TDS TEST MONITOR takes the guesswork out
of determining system-servicing requirements. By pressing a
button, owners may determine if their system is effectively
reducing dissolved solids in the water. If dissolved solids rise
above acceptable limits, a red light indicates that service is
required.
NOTE: The monitor measures the conductivity of the
product water. It will not detect the presence of organic
contaminants
INSTALLING THE TDS MONITOR PROBE
1. Locate the 3/8" tubing to the faucet. Cut the tube
approximately midway with a sharp knife or razor
blade.
CAUTION – Do not cut the tubing at an angle.
2. Position the tee connector between the cut tubing and
firmly insert the tubing into either side of the tee
connector.
3. Locate the black cable included with the Monitor Kit.
Insert the probe end into the center of the tee
connector.
4. Remove the screw on the back of the TDS monitor
and remove the back cover.
5. Unwrap and install the 9-volt battery (included) and
connect battery to the battery plug.
6. Locate the eight-position selector switch inside of the
box. Each position corresponds to a specific TDS
setting (See Chart).
7. Push the desired switch setting to "ON". Only one
switch should be set to "ON".

The Inline TDS Test Monitor should be set based upon raw
(feed) water characteristics and expected system performance.
For Example: Your municipal water supply has a TDS rating
of 200 PPM. You expect to reduce that rating to
approximately 10-30 PPM. You would then set the TDS Meter
to alert you if the TDS reading was to reach 50 PPM or above.
To do so you would set dipswitch 1 to the on position.

8. Replace the back cover and fasten it with the screw.
9. Place the monitor in an easy access location. The
only limitation is the length of the cable. Affix the
monitor by peeling the tape from the back, then
pressing onto desired mounting surface.
10. Plug the cable into the socket on the bottom of the
monitor. Bundle the excess cable using the enclosed
tie strap.
OPERATING THE TDS MONITOR
Before operating the TDS Monitor, run at least one cup of
water from the drinking water faucet. To test, press the red
"Push To Check" button on the front of the monitor, and hold
button for three seconds.
If the GREEN light glows, the level of dissolved solids is
below the monitor set point.
The RED light will glow if the level of TDS exceeds the
monitor's set point. Drain the holding tank completely and
allow it to refill. Then re-test, using the procedure above. If
the Red light continues to glow, the unit may require
servicing, or the membrane element may need to be replaced.
Contact your Reo-Pure Dealer for assistance.
If no light glows, replace the monitor battery. For best results,
replace the 9-volt battery once a year.
