Filter Assembly Installation Install the filter system in the desired location in the water treatment system. The caps are marked "IN" and OUT" on the top of the housings. The system will be built when it arrives flowing left to right. This can be disassembled and changed to match a right to left flow application.

Shut off the water and release the water pressure at the lowest sink or spigot. Cut the pipe and connect it to the filter. Connect the inlet plumbing to the inlet on the filter housing. Tighten with an adjustable wrench. Use Teflon tape to wrap the MPT threads on the provided stainless steel flex connec- tor.

Remove the sumps from the filter and install the . Ensure that the filters are installed in the correct order. The system utilizes a step down filtration method so the 5 Micron Magna will be the first, followed by the 1 Micron Magna, and finally the Interceptor.A very small amount of silicone grease or water can be used to lubricate the O-rings on the filter.

Lubricate the O-ring on the filter housing sump and install it. Tighten the filter sump hand tight. That should be adequate. Do not use abrasive tools to tighten the hous- ing or damage may occur. NOTE: Adding a little bit of lubricant/silicone to the sump threads will make the sump easier to remove when replacing the filter.
UV Installation The reactor can be installed either horizontally or vertically using the clamps provi- ded. Vertical installation is the preferred method with the inlet at the bottom (lamp connection at the top) as it allows any air that may be in the lines to be easily purged from the system.

Use the supplied fasteners to mount the UV reactor to wood or drywall. If mounting to an alternate material, you will need to purchase the proper corresponding fasten- ers. For water supplies where the maximum flow rate is unknown, a flow restrictor is recommended so that the rated flow of your particular UV system is not exceeded.

Mount the controller to the wall so it is above or beside the reactor to ensure that no moisture can deposit on any of the connections. Always mount the controller vertically. Do not plug the controller power cord in before the last step. Always hold UV lamps by their ceramic ends, not by the lamp quartz.

10. Plug the lamp connector into the lamp. Note the keying for proper alignment. Insert the lamp connector into the gland nut and turn the connector approximately 1/4 turn to lock the connector to the gland nut. 11. Tighten the captive ground screw to the ground lug on the UV reactor to ensure proper grounding.
Filter Startup Instructions Open a faucet or spigot down stream of the filter. Slowly open the water shutoff valve and let the filter fill. Air will be pushed out of the system through the open spigot or faucet downstream. Once there is no air coming out of the faucet or spigot, turn the water supply on fully and shut the faucet or spigot.
Diagnostic Steps Pulsar systems come with a feature laden controller that incorporated both the lamp driver (ballast) and control features in one water-tight case. A full color LCD screen provides the user with a detailed description of the system's per- formance in addition to providing any applicable fault messages and system diagnostics.
Filter Cartridge Replacement Instructions Shut off the water supply Open the faucet or spigot closest to the filter housing and allow all the water to empty from the plumbing systems WARNING! If the pressure is not released, the filter sump will be very difficult to get loose.

Lubricate the O-rings and install the new filter in the filter housing cap. Lubricate the O-Ring for the sump and the sump threads with food grade silicone grease. Install the filter sump in the filter cap by turning it counter-clockwise until it is hand tight.
Cleaning/Replacing the Quartz Sleeve Depending on the water quality, the quartz sleeve may require periodic cleaning. At a minimum, the quartz sleeve should be cleaned on an annual basis. The following steps outline a basic cleaning procedure. Turn off the main water inlet valve (and / or turn off the water pump). Disconnect the power cord of the UV system from the electrical outlet.
Replacing the Lamp Ensure the system is powered down and the UV controller is turned off. Remove the lamp connector from the reactor by pushing the lamp connector in and turning it 1/4 turn counter-clockwise. Disconnect the lamp connector from the lamp. CAUTION: The lamp may be hot.
