Page 15: Procedure For Measuring Waste To Product Water Ratio
Membrane Warranty. In order to maximize the life of your SpectraPure RO Membrane, you may need to adjust the ratio of the concentrate to purified water. If not enough concentrate is allowed to flow past the membrane during operation, the impurities will precipitate out on the membrane surface, clogging the RO Membrane. -
Page 16: Maintenance
® SpectraPure MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE For maximum contaminant removal and long membrane life, the sediment and carbon pre-filters should be changed at 6-month intervals. If your water contains a great deal of sediment or chlorine, the pre-filters might have to be changed at more frequent intervals to maintain an adequate production rate. -
Page 17: Post-Filter Replacement
® SpectraPure MAINTENANCE continued Post-filter Replacement Maintenance Regime: At least once in 12 months or whenever odor or bad taste occurs. Materials Needed: Replacement Carbon Post-Flter. Procedure: 1. Turn off feed supply valve and tank shut-off valve. 2. Remove the filter housing from its cap by unscrewing it clockwise as viewed from the top or side. -
