figure 3
NOTE: The inlet solenoid valve of the surface water option kit
creates a non-pressurized draining of the system. The entire
drain line, including the floor drain, must be below the drain
port of the system.
WARNING:
water sources, an external prefilter of 20-microns
(e.g. Pentek S1-20BB) nominal micron size is required.
Failure to provide this level of prefiltration may lead to
system damage and will void the warranty. A damaged
system may cause serious personal injury, illness, and/
or death.
Tools, Supplies and Parts
WARNING:
system should be maintained in sterile condition so that
the risk of cross-contamination is minimized. Bacteria,
parasites, and viruses can live for long periods of
time. As a result, dangerous organisms can be carried
from one installation or maintenance site to another
and may potentially cause serious personal injury,
sickness and/or death. Proper tool care and disinfection
procedures will minimize these risks.
