nstallation Procedure (continued):
6. Select the appropriate size tubing for the equipment being fed and connect it to the OUTLET
of the OptiPure System.
Unless Flush Valve Assembly or Flushing Line is installed prior to making connection to the
e
quipment, DO NOT connect the tubing from OUTLET of OptiPure System to the equipment
at this time, this tubing from the OUTLET can be used to flush the system.
7. With OptiPure Multi-Function Valve set in the off position (See Figure 2 on page 10), slowly
open the full-flow ball valve at the water source.
Check for leaks from plumbing leading into the OptiPure System.
8. Flushing of system before use.
NOTE: NO ACTIVATION IS REQUIRED FOR THE OPTIPURE SYSTEM TO PERFORM PROPERLY.
FLUSHING IS RECOMMENDED TO ALLOW AIR TO ESCAPE THE SYSTEM AND REMOVE ANY
CARBON FINES PRIOR TO CONNECTING TO EQUIPMENT.
Three possible flush port connections:
(NOTE: a. and b. allow for convenient flushing after filter replacement.)
a. A Flush Valve Assembly included in the parts pack can be attached to the Multi-Function
Valve port opening. See page 15 for more information. When using this option, connect
the system outlet tubing to the equipment before flushing.
b. A tee (not supplied) can be added on the outlet line from the system. Install a manual
shut-off valve (not supplied) on the branch of the tee. When using this option, connect
outlet tubing from the tee to the equipment before flushing.
c. If no flush valve is installed, use the outlet tubing that is not yet connected to the
equipment for flushing.
Flushing steps:
1. Hold tubing from the chosen flush connection in a bucket or over a sink or drain.
2. Slowly turn the Multi-Function Valve top handle into the Operating Position.
(See Figure 1 on page 10.) Turn Flush Valve Options a. / b. to open positions.
3. Allow water to flush through the OptiPure System for 5 to 10 minutes or until the water
runs clear.
4. Turn Multi-Function Valve to the Off Position. (See Figure 2 on page 10.)
5. If flush connection a. or b. is used, be sure to turn the shut-off valve to the Off position.
If flush connection c. was chosen, connect the outlet tubing to the equipment at this
time. Ensure that the tubing is clean before connecting to the equipment.
9. With tubing connected to equipment. Turn Multi-Function Valve to the Operating Postion
(See Figure 1 on page 10) and check for leaks.
10. If no plumbing leaks, turn on equipment and check for normal operation of equipment.
