INSTRUCTION MANUAL ECOSOFT RO SYSTEM MINI (MO-6500, MO-12000, MO-24000)
3. INSTALLATION AND STARTUP
Caution! Electrical installation should only be done by a qualified electrician.
3.1
Rest the unit on a flat level surface capable of supporting its weight (see Table 1). Install
permeate tank next to the unit. Inspect the RO system carefully for damage, including piping, valves
and instruments, pump, pressure vessels, pre filter housings, power cabinet before proceeding
with connection and startup.
3.2
Install membrane in each pressure vessel as follows.
Remove PVC piping with the pressure vessel ports. To remove PVC pipes, take apart pipe unions
at the pressure vessel ports. If necessary, also loosen next closest downstream union to remove
the entire piping fragment leading to the vessel. Remove the lid at the feed end of pressure vessel.
First, remove spiral retaining ring by pulling bent tab towards the center of circle. If the pressure
vessel lid is retained by half rims, remove the fastening screws and pull half rims out of circular
groove. Take out the lid with membrane adapter.
Observe direction of arrow on pressure vessel when installing membrane. Use glycerol
or a similar RO-compatible lubricant as needed. Avoid touching membrane with hands.
Use sterile rubber gloves when handling membrane.
Make a cut in membrane packaging bag and insert membrane in the pressure vessel brine seal last.
Central tube of the membrane has to mate with membrane adapter installed at the concentrate
end of pressure vessel. If necessary, remove the lid at the concentrate end before installing the
membrane.
Install the lid back in place. Put spiral retaining ring (or half rims) in the groove, fasten half rims
with screws. Re-assemble the RO system in reverse order.
3.3
Connect raw water pipe from water main/pump, drain tube or hose and permeate pipe
to the connection port of the RO system (see picture below). Recommended pipe size is at least
that of the connection port, plastic/composite pipe or rigid non-kinking hose. Use appropriate
fittings as necessary. Ensure air gap at the end of drain line to prevent backsiphonage. Connect
tube or hose to permeate outlet and extend it to permeate tank. Cut or bore an aperture at the top
of tank wall, install pipe gland and pull the permeate tube through the gland (note: run permeate
line to drain when carrying out initial membrane rinse).
It is strongly recommended to use short runs of pipe or hose the size of which matches
or exceeds that of the connection port.
3.4
Put the float switch inside permeate tank after moving ballast the necessary length up
the cord to provide enough level difference between activated and deactivated position. After the
first filling of the tank, verify that the float switch activates and deactivates in the right positions.
