GENERAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION:

This SpectraPure® RODI System gives you a continuous supply of sparkling
clear water. The reliability with the SpectraPure® Water Treatment System is
greatly improved over other systems. Costly maintenance can be avoided,
providing high quality water at your fingertips.

The incoming feed water from a cold water source is directed through

BLACK tubing with an inline ball valve and is first passed through a
sediment prefilter. This filter is used to remove excessive turbidity, sand,
dust, silt, etc., that would otherwise cause the carbon filter to plug up.
The next stage of filtration is the carbon block prefilter. This filter is used to
remove organics and chlorine from the feed water that can damage the
membrane. The next stage of the system is the RO membrane.

Household water pressure is used to force tap water through the
semipermeable RO membrane. The membrane only allows the purest of
water molecules to pass through it while over 98% of

all microorganisms and almost all high molecular weight organics in the
water

are rejected by the membrane and sent down the drain.

These RODI systems have two stages of Deionization that polish the RO
water to less than one ppm purity.

MaxCap® Extended Life Super DI cartridge and our SilicaBuster™ Extended
Life Super DI cartridge.

The MaxCap® Extended Life Super DI is used as a high-capacity “roughing”
cartridge and is followed by our SilicaBuster™ Extended Life Super
DI. Typically, if the RO water has 25 ppm TDS (Total Dissolved Solids)
entering a SilicaBuster™ DI cartridge alone, it might process about 266
gallons of pure DI water. By placing a MaxCap® DI cartridge in front
of the SilicaBuster™ cartridge, 800 gallons of water will pass through
both cartridges before the MaxCap® DI is exhausted. The SilicaBuster™
DI cartridge will be only one-third exhausted. A second MaxCap® DI will
process another 800 gallons and the SilicaBuster™ DI cartridge will now
be two-thirds exhausted. Only after a third Max Cap® DI cartridge processes
another 800 gallons should the SilicaBuster™ DI cartridge finally become
fully exhausted.

This example illustrates that three MaxCap® Super DI cartridges plus the
original SilicaBuster Super DI cartridge will process 2400 gallons of pure DI
water. It would have taken as many as ten standard mixed-bed cartridges
to produce the same amount of pure DI water.

The fourth and fifth stage filters are our

most inorganic salts,

The MaxCap® RODI system comes equipped with two Dual Inline TDS
monitors. The two TDS meters can monitor every step in the purification
process. The IN probe of the left side meter shows the tap water TDS. The
OUT probe of the left-side meter shows the RO water TDS. The IN probe
of the right-side meter shows the TDS coming out of the MaxCap DI and
the OUT probe of the right-side meter shows the TDS of the final product
water (out of the SilicaBuster DI).

A pressure - operated Shutoff Valve and a Float Valve are provided for
convenient filling of a storage reservoir.

A Manual Flush Valve (-MF) may be used to periodically rinse the
accumulated impurities and concentrated waste water from the surface of
the RO membrane to help increase the life of the membrane. If increased
pressure is needed or desired, use the BPHF-MF-115 Booster Pump Kit for

-MF Systems. This kit has a 24VDC, 2.5A Power Supply.

An Automatic Flush System (-AF) may be used to periodically rinse the
accumulated impurities and concentrated waste water from the surface
of the RO membrane to help increase the life of the membrane. This
system will flush the membrane at startup, every hour, and at shutdown.
If increased pressure is needed or desired, use the BPHF-AF-115 Booster
Pump Kit for -AF Systems. This kit has a 24VDC, 2.5A Power Supply.

WORKING WITH PUSH FITTINGS:

Push fittings are very reliable and convenient tubing connectors.

To remove the tubing from its push fitting:

1. Firmly depress and hold the push fitting collar down with your thumbnail.

2. While the push fitting collar is depressed, pull the tubing straight out
of the push fitting. Once the tubing is removed, release the collar.

To reinsert the tubing into its push fitting:

1. Moisten the O -ring seal inside the push fitting by dripping a few drops
of clean water into the fitting.

2. Grasp the tubing near the end, and insert the tubing into the push
fitting.

3. Push the tubing into the fitting until resistance is felt, approximately
1/2 inch (12.7 mm). The tubing is now resting on the O-ring seal
inside the fitting.

4. Firmly push the tubing approximately an additional 1/4 inch (6.35 mm)
further into the fitting to completely seat the line into the fitting and
past the O-ring seal.

5. Turn on the system water supply and check for leaks prior to further
use or testing. If a leak is observed, you may not have pushed the
tubing into the push fitting far enough to seal the tubing against the
O-ring. Turn off the system water supply and reseat the tubing as
described above.

SYSTEM INSTALLATION & INITIALIZATION:

1. Most of the components of this system are plastic and are subject to damage by
ultraviolet light from the sun and other sources such as metal halide lighting.

2. Avoid installing this unit in an area where it may be subjected to bright light
or direct sunlight, as algae is more likely to thrive inside the clear filter housings
when exposed to bright light. The unit must be kept out of areas that are
subject to freezing temperatures.

3. High temperatures greater than 113° F (45° C) must be avoided. If the unit is
used outside, avoid putting the system in direct sunlight or connecting it to a
garden hose that may be exposed to sunlight.

4. Attach the black tap water tubing to the left side of the Sediment Filter Housing
(See page 8 or 9).

5. Attach the yellow drain line to the “Y”- connector at the rear of the system. This “Y”

-connector already has a yellow and green tube attached to it.

6. Attach the blue product line to the rear port (after the “tee”) of the right-hand
DI housing.

7. Attach the black tubing and elbow(s) to the membrane housing cap(s).

8. Attach the garden hose adapter (connected to the black tubing) to your
cold water source. Never run hot water (greater than 113° F/45° C) through
the system.

9. Remove the two DI filter cartridges from the two right-hand filter housings.
Reconnect the two housings to their threaded caps. Hand tighten.

10. A provided ball valve can be located at a convenient place on the black tap
water line. Cut the black tubing in two and reconnect the two cut ends with
the ball valve.

11. Place the yellow concentrate (waste) tubing and the blue purified (product)
water tubing temporarily into a drain. Do not restrict flow from these lines.

12. Let both tubings run water down the drain for one hour.

13. Reinstall the two DI cartridges into the DI housings. Hand tighten.

14. There are two groups of red, white, and blue sensor wires. At the end of the
wires, you will find a white connector. Just insert the connector into the
receptacle on the top of each TDS monitor. You can then use the Velcro on
the back to mount the meters where ever it’s convenient. For example, even
on a wall for easier viewing.

15. Open the cold water supply valve. The pressure should not exceed 80 psi.

16. Upon startup, air may be trapped in the DI cartridges (housing may not
appear full), this is a normal condition and it will not affect the operation of
the DI system. However, when you later install the Float Valve for automatic
operation, all air must be kept purged from the housings by slightly
unscrewing the housing(s) and letting the running water displace the air until
the housings are full of water.

17. Set the right -side meter to “OUT” and run the system until the right-side meter
reads zero. The water is now ready to use. You can set either meter to read
either probe at any time.

18. Close the cold water supply valve.

19. Finish the installation by directing or connecting the yellow line to a
permanent drain.

20. Install the included Float Valve onto a collection reservoir. See below.

21. Attach the blue line to the Float Valve.

22. Check the system to ensure that all fittings are tight and leak-free before leaving
the system unattended. (If anything is leaking, contact SpectraPure for assistance.)

23. It may take several days of normal operation for the membrane to reach its full
production rate.

24. (For - AF Systems) Connect the supplied power supply to the 2.1 mm black
female Mini Plug (see Page 10).

INSTALL THE FLOAT VALVE:

1. Drill a 1/2" hole near the top of your reservoir.

NOTE: If you are installing the Float Valve onto an acrylic tank we recommend

using a new Fostner Bit to reduce the chance of cracking the acrylic.

2. (Refer to Diagram on Page 14) Remove the Compression Nut from the float
body.

3. Insert the 1/4" Blue Tubing into the 1/2" Compression Nut with the threads
towards the end of the tube.

4. Unscrew and remove the remaining nut from the float body.

5. Insert the float body and washer into the 1/2" hole and tighten the nut, which
securely tightens the float to the tank wall.

6. Push the Compression Nut towards the end of the tubing and screw the Com­pression Nut back onto the float body.

7. To tighten, use one 1/2" wrench on the flats of the plastic threads and another
1/2" wrench on the Compression Nut.

FLOAT VALVE ILLUSTRATION:

HOW IT WORKS:

The increasing water level raises the Float Valve in the reservoir and stops
the flow of water. Pressure builds up in the product line and ASO Valve
until the ASO Valve shuts off the flow of waste water to drain. This “OFF”
condition will be maintained until the reservoir needs more water and the
Float Valve drops, allowing both product and waste water to flow again.

NOTE: This configuration maintains house pressure in the prefilters,
membrane, and pressure gauge when in the “OFF” condition. Also, this
system WILL NOT WORK with any kind of “bladder tank” attached to the
product line.

An optional float kit can be used for filling an additional sump or reservoir.
Our Float Kit (SPFK) includes a Float Valve and 1/4" Union Tee.

FLOW RESTRICTORS AND TEST STRIPS:

These systems are supplied with TWO Flow Restrictors (FR) - RED and
GREEN. See Pages 10 and 11. The RED FR (pre-installed) produces a preset
waste-to-product ratio of 3:1 and the optional GREEN FR has a 2:1 ratio.

Two Test Strips are provided to determine the Total Hardness (this is NOT
TDS) of your tap water. To test: Dip the colored end into a small tap water
sample for 3 seconds. Remove and do not shake. Wait for 20 seconds and
then match with the closest color block on the back of the package. Color
is stable for 1 minute.

If the Total Hardness is 180 or greater, you should keep the RED FR installed.
If the Total Hardness is less than 180, you may replace the RED FR with
the GREEN FR (see “Working with Push Fittings”). Be sure to note the
orientation of the small “plug” in the end of the removed FR and install the
new FR with the same orientation.

The RED FR has a waste-to -product ratio of 3:1, which will increase the
amount of water used, but also increase the lifetime of the RO membrane.
In hard water conditions, you may use the GREEN FR to save water, but
the RO membrane will not last as long, as it will plug up with hardness
much more quickly.

THE MANUAL FLUSH VALVE (-MF Versions):

The Manual Flush Valve is located in parallel with the flow restrictor (see
page 11) and, when opened, provides a high-flow bypass of waste water
used to purge concentrated brine from the membrane housing and rapidly
flush any particulates from the membrane surface. This is especially useful
in hard-water conditions. The valve can be turned ON for 30 seconds at
the start of a fill cycle and/or at the end of a fill cycle. BE SURE to turn the
Flush Valve OFF before making product water.

An optional Booster Pump can be added for installations with less than 40
psi tap water pressure. Be sure to use the BPHF-MF-115 Booster Pump Kit.

THE AUTOMATIC FLUSH VALVE (-AF Versions):

The Automatic Flush Valve is located in parallel with the flow restrictor
and, when electrically activated, provides a high flow by-pass of waste
water used to purge concentrated brine from the membrane housing and
rapidly flush any particulates from the membrane surface. This is especially
useful in hard water conditions. A Pressure Switch and Flush Control
Module (AFC) will activate the Flush Valve at the start of a fill cycle, at the
end of a fill cycle, and for a short time every hour during the fill cycle. This
module is powered by a 24VDC power supply. An optional Booster Pump
can be added for installations with less than 40 psi tap water pressure.
Only use a power supply rated at 24VDC, 2.5A that comes with the Booster
Pump Kit (BPHF-AF-115). Connect the Pump to the black/black wires on
the AFC Module.

Notice: Drinking water add-on kits and bladder tanks are

not compatible with Automatic Flush (AF) systems.

BOOSTER PUMP INSTALLATION (Both Versions):

If needed, install the Booster Pump on the black tap water feed line. Be
sure the arrow on the pump head is in the direction of the flow. Replace
the small black power supply (-AF Systems) with the larger black power
supply provided with the Booster Pump Kit. Connect the remaining free
wires and connector on the AFC module to the pump. Systems with
25- and 40-GPD RO membranes should first consider upgrading to the
90-GPD membrane before aquiring the Booster Pump.

METERING AND DIAGNOSTICS:

This SpectraPure purification system has been fully equipped with sufficient
instrumentation to make monitoring and troubleshooting an easy process.
The provided pressure gauge is used to determine the tap water pressure
and to evaluate the condition of the sediment and carbon prefilters. The
pressure will drop as the prefilters become clogged by dirt [turbidity] from
the tap water.

The digital TDS meter (left side) will provide a reliable means of evaluating
the efficiency of the RO membrane. This meter will indicate the tap water
conductivity (“IN”) and the RO water conductivity (“OUT”).

The difference between the two meter readings can be used to calculate
the percentage of rejection of the (TFC) RO membrane.

The Digital TDS meter (right-side) will be used to determine the condition
of the two stages of the DI system. As the reading on the meter begin
to rise above zero, the operator will be alerted to the possibility that the
DI system may have deteriorated past the exhaustion point and that the
DI cartridge(s) may need to be replaced.

USING THE PRESSURE GAUGE:

The pressure gauge is used to monitor the condition of the Sediment
and Carbon Prefilters. With the Sediment and Carbon filters removed, the
gauge will indicate the “actual” tap water input pressure. When the prefilters
are “new”, the pressure shown on the gauge will be slightly less than the
actual tap water pressure and as the filters age, the pressure will drop
due to the dirt that will collect in the prefilters. When the pressure on the
gauge drops below 40 PSI or as the filters collect particulates and the
pressure drop is greater than 15% to 20% of the normal water pressure,
the prefilters are in need of replacement.

NOTE: When the pressure on the pressure gauge drops below the normal
readings; do not “assume” that the sediment filter is the only cause. In some
geographical areas where the input water contains a high percentage
of very small micron particulates, the carbon filter may become clogged

water pressure to drop). Do not judge the condition of the prefilters by
their color, always use the pressure gauge to determine the condition of
the prefilters.

SEDIMENT PREFILTER REPLACEMENT:

A Sediment Filter will usually last approx. 4-6 months, depending on the
quality of the tap water and quantity of water being produced. (The life
span of the filter is determined by the turbidity, iron content, organics,
and total particulate volume in your water source). The best way to
determine when your Sediment Prefilter needs replacement is to monitor
the Pressure Gauge. When you have a drop in pressure of15-20% below
your normal gauge pressure, replace the filter. To verify this, run water
through the system without the filter in its housing. If the pressure returns
to your normal house pressure without the filter, you will know the filter
you just took out was plugged up and causing the pressure drop.

**NOTE: A drop in the system’s production is, in most cases, an indication
that the sediment filter has become saturated with contaminants and
will need to be replaced. If you remove the sediment and the pressure
does not return to normal, the carbon filter may be plugged. If your water
contains a great deal of sediment or chlorine, the prefilters may require
more frequent changes to maintain adequate production rate and
extended membrane life.

Sediment Prefilter Replacement

Materials Required: Sediment prefilter (SF-MT-0.5-10),

Filter Wrench (WR-UNIV)

Procedure:

1. Turn off water supply to the system.

2. Using the provided filter housing

CARBON BLOCK FILTER REPLACEMENT:

A Carbon Filter will usually lasts 4-6 months ,depending on the chlorine
(or chloramine) content of your tap water and quantity of water being
produced. The best way to determine when your Carbon Block Prefilter
needs replacement is to use a chlorine test kit.

Any chlorine level above 0.1 ppm will cause damage to the membrane
and indicates that the carbon block filter must be changed. To test for
chlorine breakthrough, collect a 10 ml sample of the concentrate from
the yellow tubing and test the chlorine concentration using test kit TK-CL­10-KIT. If the chlorine concentration is above 0.1ppm, replace the carbon
prefilter.

**NOTE: A drop in the system’s production is, in most cases, an indication
that the sediment filter has become saturated with contaminants, but a
carbon filter can also decrease production if it’s covered with extremely
fine sediment. If the carbon becomes plugged with sediment, it will no
longer be able to remove chlorine.

Carbon Block Filter Replacement

Materials Required: Carbon Block prefilter (CF-0.5-10), Filter Wrench,

Chlorine Test Kit (TK-CL-10-KIT)

Procedure:

1. Turn off water supply to the system.

2. Using the provided filter housing wrench, remove the second housing
from the left. Unscrew it clockwise as viewed from the top.

3. Remove the old filter and discard.

4. Thoroughly wash the housing with a mixture of hot soapy water and
a few teaspoons of household bleach. Rinse well with clean hot water.

5. Insert the new carbon block filter into the housing, Screw the housing
back onto the assembly and hand-tighten only.

NOTE: Do not use filter wrench to tighten housings. Over-tightening

will damage housings and void your warranty.

6. Turn on system water supply and check for leaks.

RO MEMBRANE DIAGNOSTICS:

In order to accurately determine the condition and performance of the
RO Membrane, a conductivity tester capable of reading the tap water
conductivity (or TDS) and the product water conductivity (or TDS) would
typically be required.

You may also use an alkalinity test kit (on softened water sources) or a
hardness test kit (on non-softened water sources).

NOTE: All water sources are different and are subject to changes in

conductivity from season to season which could affect the TDS
reading depending on the time of the year. For this reason, we
recommend the use of a conductivity (TDS) tester in order to
determine the most accurate measurement for determining the
condition of the RO membrane.

TESTING THE QUALITY OF THE MEMBRANE:

The performance of a RO membrane is measured by its ability to reject
salts or TDS (Total Dissolved Solids). This procedure will require a TDS
Meter. SpectraPure offers several models:

MTR-TDS-EZ HM Digital Hand-held TDS Meter
MTR-TDS-DM1 HM Digital Inline Dual Probe TDS Meter

General Procedure:

1. Measure tap water TDS. (Call it X)

2. Run the system for 15 -20 minutes.

3. Rinse test instrument cell 2-3 times with RO water.

4. Measure RO water TDS directly from the blue product water line.

(Call it Y).

5. Subtract RO water TDS from tap water TDS. (X - Y)

6. Divide this quantity by tap water TDS. (X - Y) ÷ X

7. Rejection = [(X - Y) ÷ X ] ×100

TDS in the above procedure is measured in ppm or mg/l.

Important: Test the quality of the membrane once every 6 months.

Rejection of the RO Membrane Calculation Example

1. Tap water TDS = 150 ppm (X)

2. RO water TDS = 15 ppm (Y)

3. X - Y = 135 ppm

4. (X - Y) ÷ X = 135 ÷ 150 = 0.90

5. Rejection = [ ( X - Y) ÷ X ] ×100 = 0.90 ×100 = 90%

NOTE: Rejection rates less than 95% may indicate that the membrane should be

replaced.

MEMBRANE PRODUCTION CALCULATION:

Membranes produce the rated gallons per day (GPD) at 60 psi (4.1 bars)
operating pressure, 77°F (25°C) operating temperature and with no more
than 500 ppm total dissolved solids.

Membrane output gallons per day (GPD) depends on operating pressure,
water temperature and the TDS in the feed water.

Expected GPD = Rated GPD × PCF × TCF

PCF is the pressure correction factor

TCF is the temperature correction factor

Calculation of Pressure Correction Factor (PCF): The output (GPD) from

the membrane is directly proportional to the applied pressure.

NOTE: The membrane is rated to produce the rated GPD at 60 psi. For any

pressure other than 60 psi the output GPD is multiplied by the PCF.

PCF = Line Pressure (in psi) ÷ 60

Calculation of Temperature Correction Factor (TCF): The output (GPD)
decreases with a decrease in temperature. This is due to water viscosity
increasing with a decrease in water temperature.

57.2/14 0.707 75.2 /24 0.970 93.2 /34 1.304

Membrane Output Calculation Example

What is the expected GPD from a 100 GPD System at 40 psi pressure
and 60°F water temperature?

PCF = 40 ÷ 60 = 0.666
TCF = 0.754 (from Table above)

Expected GPD = 100 × 0.666 × 0.754 = 50.2 GPD ± 15%

50.2 GPD would be the Actual Production Rate

TIPS FOR LONG MEMBRANE LIFE:

1. Replacement of sediment filter at least once every 6 months.This will

prevent mem brane fouling due to silt or sediment depositing on the
membrane.

2. Replacement of carbon block filter at least once every 6 months or

when chlorine breakthrough occurs. This will ensure good membrane
life and protect the membrane from chlorine damage.

3. Membrane should not be operated at lower than the minimum 2:1

concentrate to purified water ratio.

4. Operating reverse osmosis systems on softened feed water greatly

reduces the chances of membrane fouling.
