LOCATION
For optimal performance, the water needs time and
turbulence after passing though the unit so that the particles
will flocculate (clump together), and be easier to remove.
The pump provides this turbulence, so the ideal location for
the K40 (A) is before the pump (B), as far back as possible
in order to allow the maximum time for flocculation.

INSTALLATION
1. Connect the main body of the unit to the pipe with the
two tie wraps (C & D).
2. Loosely assembly the ferrite ring around the pipe using
the thumbscrews and nuts (E).
3. When the ring is assembled, tighten the screws by hand (F).
4. Plug PSU into unit and connect to mains power (G).
ELECTRICITY
As with all electrical equipment, ensure that the equipment
is connected in accordance with current electrical
regulations in your area.

TROUBLESHOOTING
The red light shows that the signal is being transmitted
into the water - it should be bright. If this is not the case
check the following:
1. The ferrites should be assembled and the screws tight.
2. The mains supply should be on. Check that the PSU
is fully plugged into the mains and that the DC jack
is fully plugged into the unit.
3. If fitting to metal pipework, avoid placing unit into an
electrical loop (see below).
If the unit is fitted in a loop, move the unit to a location
outside the loop.
LOOPS
An electrical loop occurs when the signal can travel through
metal from one side of the unit to the other (I). If the unit
is fitted in a loop, the signal does not propagate correctly
and is trapped in the loop. Earth bonding or pipework is a
common cause. Loops cannot be formed if the unit is fitted
to plastic pipe.
Moving the unit to a location outside the loop – for example
“before” the earth bonding - allows the signal to propagate
correctly (J). To remove the unit from the pipe, re-insert the
split pin.
A quick test to see if the unit is in a loop is to remove
the unit from the pipe, reassemble it off the pipe,
and see if the light becomes brighter.

GUARANTEE
Should a fault occur with this product within the first 3 years
after purchase, then the product will either be repaired or
replaced free of charge under the manufacturer’s product
guarantee. Guarantee claims are strictly limited to the value
of the original purchase price and HYDROPATH accepts no
responsibility for any consequential loss that may result from
a product failure.
• It is a condition of this guarantee that no unauthorised
repairs are carried out or attempted as they will invalidate
the guarantee. Faulty product that is within the guarantee
period should be returned to the point of purchase
together with a copy of the bill of receipt.
• HYDROPATH recommends that the unit is wired to a
surge-protected power supply, and no claims will be
accepted where product failure or damage is the direct
result of a surge from an unstable power supply.
• Customers should be aware that water leaks from
plumbing systems may result as a consequence of
limescale removal. Customers are advised therefore
to periodically inspect the plumbing system to ensure
that the system and compression joints in particular
remain water-tight.
• No claims will be accepted by HYDROPATH for products
purchased through un-authorised vendors or re-sellers.
A list of authorised vendors can be found on our website.
• This guarantee does not affect a customer’s statutory rights.
