Solenoid Valve Maintenance Each RO-compact unit has two solenoid valves which operate in opposite orientations. The feed solenoid valve normally closed and the process solenoid valve normally open. Occasionally, debris may become trapped in the diaphragm of the valve, causing the valve to not close completely.
When replacing the new pump head make sure the shaft and coupler are inline This ensures the pump head is completely inserted into the old motor coupling. Reconnect the clamp Fasten with the screw provided. www.kinetico.eu...
Flow Restrictor Maintenance Two flow restrictors are used with each RO-Compact unit. These restrictors have a fixed orifice and should be checked at least four times per year. Blockage of the flow restrictor will change the operation of the membrane, and may cause rapid fouling of the system.
