OPERATING CONDITIONS & REQUIREMENTS
APPLICATION LIMITATIONS:
pH: for Iron removal: 6,8 - 9,0
for Manganese removal: 8,0 - 9,0
for Iron & Manganese removal: 8,0 - 8,5
maximum contaminant content:
Iron (Fe
Manganese (Mn
Hydrogen Sulfide (H
organic matter: max. 4,0 mg/L; higher level may hinder the correct operation of
the system and may require more frequent regenerations and/or a higher
backwash flow rate. In case of excessive amounts of organic matter or suspended
solids, install a sediment filter ahead of the appliance.
chlorine: max. 1,0 mg/L
iron bacteria: if iron bacteria are present, frequent service may be necessary,
while the life of the system may be limited; by properly controlling the iron
bacteria with chlorine or another approved method of bacterial reduction, the
system will function properly.
OPERATING PRESSURE MIN-MAX: 2,5-8,0 bar / 36-116 psi
low operating pressure may lead to insufficient backwash of the filter media,
resulting in an increase in pressure drop and/or a reduction of the filtration
capacity during the service cycle.
if installed on a well, verify that the well pump is powerful enough to provide
sufficient flow rate for the backwash cycle.
check water pressure regularly; it may fluctuate severely depending on the time
of day, the day of the week or even the season of the year.
take into account that night time water pressure may be considerably higher than
day time water pressure.
install a pressure reducer ahead of the appliance if necessary.
install a pressure booster, if it is likely that water pressure may drop below the
minimum.
OPERATING TEMPERATURE MIN-MAX: 4-48 °C / 39-120 °F
do not install the appliance in an environment where high ambient temperatures
(e.g. unvented boiler house) or freezing temperatures can occur.
the appliance cannot be exposed to outdoor elements, such as direct sunlight or
atmospheric precipitation.
do not install the appliance too close to a water heater; keep at least 3 m (10 ft)
of piping between the outlet of the appliance and the inlet of the water heater;
water heaters can sometimes transmit heat back down the cold pipe into the
appliance; always install a check valve at the outlet of the appliance.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION:
this appliance only works on 24 VDC; always use it in combination with the
supplied transformer.
make sure to plug the transformer into a power outlet, which is installed in a dry
location, with the proper rating and over-current protection.
