1. INSTALLATION

1.1 RECEIVING

A. Each unit is completely tested and thoroughly inspected before shipment. At the time of

shipment, the carrier accepts the unit and any claim for damage(s) must be made with the carrier. Upon receiving units from the delivering carrier, carefully inspect carton for visible indication(s) of damage. If damage exists, have carrier note same on bill of lading and file a claim with the carrier.

1.2 UNPACKING

A. Remove the unit from carton. B. Remove inner carton pads and plastic bag. C. Remove Installation Kit of Loose parts. D. Inspect for concealed damage(s); if evident, notify delivering carrier and file claim against same.

1.3 SELECTING INSTALLATION LOCATION (SEE FIGURE 1)

A. The Pure Link unit is designed to attach to a vertical wall that

must be capable of supporting a minimum weight of 61 pounds (27.7 kg). Select a location that is close to a drain, a municipal water supply, and an electrical outlet (if required). If the unit does not have a delivery pump, it should be mounted high enough on the wall to allow gravity feed to the point of use.

NOTE: Lancer recommends installation height seven (7) feet (top of unit) for gravity feed units. A minimum height of seven (7) feet is

required for use with the optional 38.5 Gallon Pure Storage unit. If the building does not have a pre-filter and a carbon filter on the incoming water supply to the unit, then allow enough space to mount a dedicated pre-filter and a carbon filter.

B. Mount unit to wall in desired location. Ensure that unit is properly

secured based on operating weight.

1" (Minimum)

Refer to Local Plumbing Code for Specific Requirement

1.4 FILTERING THE WATER SUPPLY

The Pure Link System is intended for use with potable water only. Excessive levels of chlorine, bacteria, iron, turbidity, and/or hardness may affect the RO membranes or other components and may require additional pre-filtration of the incoming water supply.

A. Water supplied to the Pure Link unit must first pass through a maximum 5 micron pre-filter and

then through a maximum 5 micron carbon block filter. The pre-filter removes suspended solids

and protects the carbon block filter from premature failure. The carbon block filter removes chlorine and some organic compounds from the incoming water supply which can damage the module.* The building must

have an adequate filtering system if a dedicated filter system is not

provided to the Pure Link unit. A Block Carbon pre-filter is required; otherwise, granular carbon

filters will release salt and carbon fines that will cause the booster pump to fail and not build pressure.

* Not performance tested or certified by NSF.

CAUTION

FAILURE TO PROPERLY MAINTAIN AND CHANGE FILTER CARTRIDGES IN A TIMELY MANNER WILL CAUSE THE PURE LINK UNIT TO REDUCE PRODUCTION AND/OR FAIL TO OPERATE.

B. In the event the building is not equipped with these filters, then a suitable pre-filter and a

carbon block filter must be installed and maintained at proper intervals. For selection of the

proper filtration system, refer to your Lancer Catalog or contact Lancer Customer Service.

1.7 CONNECTING UNIT TO POINT OF USE (POU)

NOTE:

For selection of the proper filtration system, refer to your Lancer Catalog or contact Lancer Customer Service.

The Pure Link unit has a connection on the bottom of the unit (marked “Product Water Out”) which is the gravity feed port. For gravity feed applications, connect 3/8” OD tubing to port and to the POU.

A. For Pressure Applications, connect 3/8” OD tubing to appropriate

Remote Delivery Pump.

B. Ensure that the Delivery pump is properly sized to meet the demand of

the Point(s) of Use (POU). Refer to Delivery Pump installation instructions for proper installation.

Connect to Drain

1.5 CONNECTING UNIT TO DRAIN

The module drain is located on the bottom left hand side of the unit, marked “DRAIN”. Install the siphon break (included in the Installation Kit) to the “Drain port” of the unit (see Figure 2). Using 1/4” OD tubing, connect the siphon break to the nearest suitable drain. Follow local plumbing codes for air gap requirements (see Figure 1a).

1.6 INSTALLING OVERFLOW

A. The only time any water will vent from the overflow is if there is a

failure of the shut off valve to operate correctly and the unit continues to produce water and overfills the storage bag causing the overflow valve to vent water.

B. Insert six (6) inch length of 1/4” tubing (supplied with the Install Kit) into

the overflow valve on top right of unit (at location marked”VENT”). Install the supplied 1/4”tee to tubing, as shown in Figure 3.

CAUTION

FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL THE OVERFLOW ASSEMBLY OR PLUMB IT TO THE DRAIN COULD RESULT IN WATER DAMAGE.

C. Plumb the overflow valve to drain (see Figure 3). Make sure that the

top of the tee is open to prevent siphoning of water from the storage bag or backflow into the storage bag.

C. For High Volume Applications, connect to optional storage unit. D. When used with the optional 38.5 Gallon Pure Storage unit, the Delivery Pump must be installed

below the tank level to ensure proper operation..

1.8 CONNECTING UNIT TO WATER SUPPLY

A. The water inlet connection for units without

a water boost pump is on the top left hand side of

the unit. Connect to filtered water source using 3/8” OD tubing.

B. The water connection port, for units equipped with a water boost pump, is the inlet port on the

pump (see Figure 1). Connection can be accomplished using 3/8” OD tubing. As an alternative, the Installation Kit contains an adaptor with a 3/8” barbed fitting. This allows the use of 3/8” ID beverage tubing as the inlet water tube.

C. Use cold water supply ONLY.

CAUTION

THE UNIT COVER MUST BE PROPERLY INSTALLED ON UNIT DURING OPERATION WITH ALL FIVE (5) SCREWS IN PLACE. FAILURE TO PROPERLY SECURE COVER TO UNIT WILL RESULT IN FAILURE OF THE UNIT TO SHUT OFF AND/OR BOOST PUMP WILL OPERATE CONTINUOUSLY IN BY-PASS.

1.9 TURNING WATER ON

Turn water on to unit and check for leaks. Membrane will begin to produce water to fill storage bag. The time required to fill the bag is dependent upon the Pure Link model.Water production can be verified by observing flow rate to drain. If equipped with internal delivery pump, disconnect 3 pin pump connector from power supply. Follow Sanitizing Instructions in Section 1.12. Allow unit to fill with water, then reconnect delivery pump.

1.10 CONNECTING UNIT TO ELECTRIC POWER SUPPLY (IF EQUIPPED WITH POWER SUPPLY)

ARNING

THIS UNIT MUST BE PROPERLY ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED TO AVOID POSSIBLE FATAL ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR SERIOUS INJURY TO THE OPERATOR. THE POWER CORD IS PROVIDED WITH A THREE PRONG GROUNDED PLUG. IF A THREE HOLE GROUNDED ELECTRICAL OUTLET IS NOT AVAILABLE, USE AN APPROVED METHOD TO GROUND THE UNIT.

DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORDS WITH THIS UNIT. DO NOT “GANG” TOGETHER WITH OTHER ELECTRICAL DEVICES ON THE SAME OUTLET.

Plug unit power cord into transformer control box and into the proper electrical outlet. The water boost pump will begin to operate. Product water will begin to fill the product water storage bag. The boost pump will shut off when the storage bag is full.

1.11 Boost Pump Bypass Pressure Setting (if so equipped)

A. Install pressure gauge (0-160 psi) on outlet side of boost pump (PN 86-0112). Connect feed

water line from Pure Link unit to other side of gauge. B. Turn on water supply. C. Connect unit to electrical supply. D. With boost pump operating, insert 1/16" hex key into bypass adjustment screw on pump head.

Turn clockwise to increase bypass setting, or turn counterclockwise to decrease bypass setting.

Set to 110 psi. E. Disconnect electrical supply. F. Turn off water supply. G. Remove gauge and reconnect feed water line from Pure Link to boost pump outlet. H. Turn on water supply and connect unit to electrical supply. Check for pump operation and leaks.

NOTE:

Pressure Test Gauge is available through Lancer Customer Service.
