INSTALLATION
1. Position the V
2
Pure RO System in a location where it can be easily mounted and secured
(ideally to a vertical surface such as a wall) and where it can be easily connected to a cold
water mains supply. Please Note: the RO system must not be positioned in a location
where the temperature may fall below 0
o
C.
2. Ensure it can be easily accessed for cleaning and maintenance and in a position that allows
the pure water to run into a suitable collecting container or directly into your aquarium
sump, and the reject water to be disposed of or collected for other purposes.
Caution: The reject water will contain a high concentration of contaminants which should
be directed to a drain and disposed of, or be collected for use in processes that do not
require pure water, e.g. watering plants.
Caution: Reject water is NOT suitable for use as drinking water.
3. Turn off the mains water supply.
4. Ensure the surface of the cold water mains supply pipe is clean and free from dirt or
corrosion. Please Note: Failure to do so could result in operating problems and/or leaks.
5. Attach the self piercing “C” clamp water connection
fitting (22) to your cold water mains supply pipe, using
whichever side of the metal compression fitting fits your
pipe best and secure it by turning the securing bolt at the
side of the clamp in an anti-clockwise direction. Securely
tighten using a spanner or similar tool (see photo 3).
Please Note: Failure to do so could result in
operating problems and/or leaks.
6. Unscrew the hosetail locking nut (see photo 3) from the
outlet hosetail on the “C” clamp water connection fitting
(22).
7. Thread one end of RO flexible tubing (WHITE feed water
tubing) (23) through the hole in the end of the locking nut,
slide the white plastic compression ring over the end of
the tubing and then push the white insert fitting into the
end of the tubing (see photo 4).
8. Re-attach the hosetail locking nut to the outlet hosetail of
the “C” clamp water connection fitting (see photo 5) and
then securely tighten using a spanner or similar tool.
Please Note: Failure to do so could result in operating problems and/or leaks.
9. Carefully cut the RO flexible tubing (WHITE feed water
tubing) (23) so it is a suitable length to successfully connect
to the feedwater (mains water) inlet 90° hosetail (2) without
any kinks.
Caution:When cutting the RO flexible tubing always
ensure that the tubing is cut straight and cleanly. Failure to
do so could result in leaks.
