Notice to Installers

• Connect the system to cold water supply only. Water Temperature

cannot exceed 100°F (38°C).

• System must be installed in a vertical, upright and level position.

• Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of

unknown water quality.

• Notice to user/owner/operator: Please retain this manual for future

reference for parts, maintenance, or troubleshooting.

• It is recommended that all personnel responsible for operation and

maintenance of this product read the precautions, maintenance,
and operation sections of this manual.

Installation Precautions

• Do not install system on line pressure above the rated pressure as

noted in System Specications above.

• Do not install the system on a hot water line. Failure to limit the

water temperature to 100°F (38°C) can result in housing failure and
property damage.

• Do not connect the system backwards with the feed water line

connected to the outlet.

• Do not use liquid pipe thread compounds for threaded
connections. Use Teon

• Do not solder plumbing connections that are attached to the
housings or inlet/outlet ttings. System damage may occur due to
high temperature.

• Do not allow the system to freeze. Turn off water supply and drain

the system if temperature falls below 32°F (0°C).

• Do not install system in direct sunlight or where the system will be

exposed to harsh chemicals or may be subjected to being hit by
moving equipment, carts, mops, or any other item that may cause
damage.

• Allow 3" (76mm) minimum clearance under the housings for lter

replacement.

• If water hammer is evident, install water hammer arrestors before

the system.

• Do not over tighten tting connections.

• Always back up valves and ttings with a wrench when installing

ttings to avoid over tightening or loosening existing ttings.

• Do not install the unit behind equipment where it may be difcult to

access the system for future lter replacements.

Position the system in a suitable location. The direction of ow
through the system is left to right. Keep this in mind when determin­ing installation locations. Do not mount the system near any source
of heat. Also do not mount this system over anything that may be
adversely affected by water.

tape only.

Operation

With sufcient pressure, operation of this system is completely auto­matic. Dependable operation involves only monitoring system pres­sure differential, periodic lter changes, and service documentation.

NOTICE

Filter cartridges should be changed at end of filter life, due to lack of
filtering performance, or whenever a 15 psi pressure drop or greater
is experienced during normal operation, whichever comes first.

For all replacement filters and components contact your authorized
Hydro-Safe Foodservice representative.

*Note: The QTCB15S is the same filter as the QTCB15. Only the
label position has been changed so that the label faces forward on
single cartridge systems.

NOTICE

Cartridge capacities are estimates and may be less depending
on incoming water quality.
