Sanitation procedure
• Pay special attention to sanitizing the tap pipe. Use
the sanitizing spray (or alternatively, hydrogen peroxide,
dosing it in such a way that it penetrates the tap) and
single-use drying paper towels. Spray the spray on the
tap nozzle (11), rub the spout and the tap nozzle with
the disposable paper and do not touch it directly with
your hands (12).
3. RINSING
• Since sanitation and rinsing do not ensure complete
removal of carbon dust from new filters or sanitation
residues, rinse the osmosis equipment with plenty of
water, after each sanitation, circulating mains water of
adequate quality during 5 minutes or more. Discard the
first 5 liters of water before consuming it.
• Proceed with a pre-filter rinse each time you replace
it and prior to each sanitation of the equipment.
• Rinse the pre-filter, preferably isolated from the rest
of the equipment even before installation.
• Rinse with plenty of water that complies with local re-
gulations regarding water potability parameters.
• Fill the pre-filter slowly in order to evacuate the con-
tained air and avoid internal turbulences that alter
the different stages of filtration. When water sprouts
through the outlet opening, increase the flow rate pro-
gressively. Extract at least 4L and make sure that this
water no longer contains fines from coal.
• Keep, throughout the process, the filter in the same
position it will occupy once installed in the equipment.
• At the end, take a paper towel, dry all the parts that
could have been wet and especially the Aquastop leak
detection probe (if the equipment includes one).
