VII. Pre-Installation Checklist

Getting Started

The following procedures have been developed to assist during the installation of your ROAX KPRO-Series system.
The installation of this ROAX KPRO-Series system should be performed by a qualified service person with an
understanding of local and regional codes that may affect the installation requirements.

Pre-installation Review

Before beginning the installation of the ROAX KPRO-Series system, confirm system configuration to be installed, and
components that have been ordered. Please review ROAX KPRO-Series system specification sheet that includes required
components.
Review of the customer's facility is also recommended, especially critical operating data that could affect the operation
of the system:

Water Pressure

Water pressure to the ROAX KPRO-Series system will affect the maximum flow permitted by the system. The ROAX KPRO-
Series system will not operate if the inlet pressure fluctuates below a dynamic pressure of 30 psi. This minimum pressure must be
maintained to the system at all times. Should the pressure fluctuate below this level, a booster pump may be required.

Temperature

Ambient temperature must be maintained above 36°F (2°C). Freezing temperatures will cause breakage of equipment and
void all warranties.

Water Temperature

Inlet water temperature must be maintained between 36°F and 100°F to prevent damage to the system's membranes.

System Location

The unit must be installed indoors. Failure to comply with this requirement can cause significant damage to the system and
will create a safety concern. It will also void the system limited warranty.
VIII. Installation

Tools and Installation Materials

Since the ROAX KPRO-Series system processes high quality water, plumbing runs on the process, purge and drain outlets
should all be completed with PVC piping. Copper and galvanized pipe will be chemically attacked by the permeate water.
• Teflon® tape
• Fitting sealant
• 1/2" tubing
• Plastic tube cutter
• Flat head screwdriver (medium)
• Phillips head screwdriver (medium and small)
• Multimeter
• Wire strippers/cutters

Skid Positioning

The ROAX KPRO-Series system can be moved by forklift, pallet jack or two-wheeler. The skid is heavy and caution
should be used whenever moving the equipment. Move the ROAX KPRO-Series assembly to the location of its
installation. Make sure the area meets the following requirements:
• Indoors
• Level
• Dry
After moving the unit to the installation site, select an area where the unit can be serviced from the front and sides.
When installing next to a wall, leave a minimum of a 12" access path to allow service to the back of the unit. Leave a
minimum of 12" on both sides of the system. This will allow for easy removal of membranes, should they need to be
changed. 36" access in front of the electrical control box is required.
