Inlet and Outlet Connections

The water inlet is on the left side rear and the outlets are on both sides and are identified with labels. The fitting
size is 3/4" NPT (Male). Built-in check valves (non-return) are incorporated into both outlets.

How to Use "Push-in" Connectors

To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:
• Do not install unit if collet is missing. Contact your Sales Representative if collets are missing
Some manifolds are outfitted with with a user friendly 'Push In' connector at the vent valve. Proper use of the con-
nectors is shown in the figure below. It is most important that the tubing selected for use with these connectors
be of high quality, exact size and roundness, and with no surface nicks or scratches. If it is necessary to cut the
tubing, use a plastic tubing cutter or sharp razor knife. Make a clean square cut. Should a leak occur at a
"Push-In" connector, the cause is usually defective tubing.

Equipment Installation

To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:
• Do not use a torch or other high temperature sources near filter system, cartridges, plastic fittings or plastic
plumbing.
• On plastic fittings, never use pipe sealant or pipe dope. Use PTFE thread tape only, pipe dope properties may
deteriorate plastic.
• Take care when using pliers or pipe wrenches to tighten plastic fittings, as damage may occur if overtight-
ening occurs.
• Do not install near water pipes which will be in path of a drilling tool when selecting the position to mount
the system.
• Mount filter in such a position as to prevent it from being struck by other items used in the area of installation.
• Ensure that the location and fasteners will support the weight of the system when installed.
• Ensure all tubing and fittings are secure and free of leaks.
