TM
Presenting the Prime TC Mineral RO Water Purifier; it uses futuristic and state-of-the- art technology to provide pure and healthy drinking water.
TM
The heart of Prime TC Mineral RO Water Purifier is a Reverse Osmosis membrane
having capillaries as small as .0001 microns that reduces even dissolved impurities (salts and
heavy metals) and even converts hard water to sweet and pure drinking water. Prime TC
TM
Mineral RO Water Purifier also allows the user to control the Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
level in purified water.

The maximum distance between the water source and the purifier should not be more than 3 meters.
Make sure that the purifier is connected to cold water supply only.
Do not try to service the purifier on your own. Instead, call service technician for help.
To keep the storage tank clean, it should be drained once in 15 days.

“Make sure that the reject water pipe is not placed at a level higher from the purifier, otherwise reject water may flow backwards into the purifier”.
Reject Water
Drain
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and installation in damp areas.
Do not confine the purifier in a cabinet.
Avoid sharp bends in the pipe. Do not bend or block the reject water pipe.
In case of not using the purifier for more than two days, kindly switch off the power supply and drain the storage tank.
The buzzer sound indicates a fault in the purifier. In case you hear an audible alarm, please take a corrective action or call service engineer for help.

The Reverse Osmosis process, also known as hyper filtration, is the finest filtration process known till date. The process ensures removal of particles as small as ions from a solution. Reverse Osmosis uses a semi­permeable membrane to remove salts from potable / brackish water. In Reverse Osmosis, water pressure applied to the concentrated side forces the process of osmosis into reverse. Under enough pressure, treated water is ”squeezed” through the membrane from the concentrated side to the diluted side. Salts dissolved in water as charged ions are repelled by the RO membrane. The rejected impurities on the concentrated side of the membrane are washed away in a stream of waste water and thus do not get accumulated as in a traditional filter.
UV Process
The UV light has shorter wavelength (higher energy) than the visible light. It is called ultra­violet because it is just beyond violet light in the light spectrum. Technically, the ultra-violet light is defined to be any wavelength of light, which is shorter than 400 nanometer.
UV rays, which penetrate into the micro-organisms, are absorbed by the DNA of the pathogen in the water. The DNA is altered in such a way that the pathogen cannot reproduce itself. Thus, it is essentially killed and cannot cause infection. This process of DNA modification is called inactivation.

UV Fail Alarm
To ensure delivery of 100% pure and healthy water, a micro-processor is installed in the purifier that performs the following functions: -
UV Stabi lizatio n Del ay: To ensure that th e UV lamp is pre- heated and is worki ng at its optimum lev el before i t starts disinf ecting wa ter, the co ntroller provi des a two seconds d elay to UV lamp when t he purifi er is switched on. During this period, only th e UV lamp i s sw itched on and other electrical device s of the puri fier are switch ed off.
Purifi cation Delay: T o ensure that the i dle water lyin g in the inte rnal pipes and in t he UV chamber is disinf ected before being pa ssed into the storage tan k, the system provide s 5 secon d del ay when the purifi er is switched on. During this time, the UV lamp kills all micro-orga nisms that may be in the water inside U V chamber. Afte r this delay, all ot her electrica l devices such as b ooster pump and so lenoid valve are switched on to star t nor mal purif ication process.

Filter Change Alarm
KENT Prime TC Mineral RO has an in-built feature that sounds an audible alarm to indicate replacement
time for filters. This alarm will be audible after 700 hrs of use since the last filter change (or since the time of installation). The Filter Change Alarm will sound like following:
4 short beeps after every two seconds; for 30 seconds. The alarm will repeat after every 2 hours of use.
In case such an alarm is audible, please call the service technician and request him to change the filters of the purifier. However, if the filters are not changed within the next 60 hours of operation, the purifier will stop functioning to ensure purity and hygiene. The following alarm will be audible after 60 Hrs. A continuous beep for an infinite time.
In case, such an alarm is audible, kindly switch off the purifier and call the service technician to replace the filters. In such a circumstance, the purifier will not function unless the filters are changed.

Note: Filters and membrane are consumables. Their replacement time is dependent on the quality of raw water and water consumption. They are not covered under the warranty. However, if a filter chokes within six months and a membrane within a year, it will be cleaned/repaired/replaced free of cost. Changing the filters and system inspection is available on call. The treatment capacity of RO membrane will reduce with time due to clogging of pores of membranes.
