ding our product.
Introduction
Aquaphor RO operates by removing contaminants from water at the molecular level. By using your
household water pressure to squeeze the water against a special membrane, the water molecules
are separated from any impurities that exist.
Rejected dissolved solids are automatically rinsed away through the drain leaving you with only
high-quality, delicious water for your use.
1. Operational parameters
Operating temperatures: Maximum 38 ºC (100.4 ºF) Minimum 5 ºC (41 ºF)
Operating pressure: Maximum 0.63 MPa
(6.3 bar / 91.4 psi)
Minimum 0.19 MPa
(1.9 bar / 27.6 psi)
The operating pressure in your home should be tested over a
24 hour period to attain the maximum pressure. If it is above 0.63
MPa (6.3 bar / 91.4 psi), then a pressure regulator is necessary,
and will be required.

ATTENTION!
The efficiency of RO depends on the incoming
tap water mineralization and tap water pressure
(please see Table 1). The recommended operation
of RO requires tap water pressure of at least 0.2
MPa (2 bar / 29.01 psi).
When tap water pressure is less than illustrated
in the Table 1, it is highly recommended to install
a booster pump in order to obtain drainage ratio.
2. Safety instructions
WARNING: RO must be applied to potable
water only.
It is highly recommended that a water treatment
specialist be hired to install and maintain this
appliance.
When installing the appliance into a local water
supply, it is recommended that you conduct a
full water analysis. If the water analysis does
not correspond with the requirements, the life
of the filtration and membrane cartridges may
be significantly reduced. In this case, it is rec-
ommended to use auxiliary water treatment
systems (e.g. mechanical filter, de-ironing filter
with, or alongside a water softener). Only use
microbiological safe water with your Reverse
Osmosis system appliance.
CAUTION: Do not use water that is microbi-
ologically unsafe or water of unknown quality
without adequate disinfection before or after
using the appliance.
CAUTION: Reverse Osmosis water should not
be run through copper tubing as the purity of
the water will leach copper and cause an objec-
tionable taste in the water. Additionally, it will
form pinholes in the tubing. Be sure to follow
any state or local regulations.
CAUTION: The Reverse Osmosis system is de-
signed to be connected to cold water only. Never
run warm or hot water through your appliance.

4. RO design
and operation principles
• RO housing (1) consists of an upper plate,
with four collectors fixed onto it, to place the
replacement cartridges and the RO-hydro
automatic unit RO. The upper lid comes with
a decorative cover, fixed in place with three
plastic latches. An integral part of the RO
housing is the treated water storage tank (6).
Treated water goes into the storage tank upon
exiting the membrane cartridge. This storage
tank ensures availability of the required amount
of filtered water always.
• Preliminary water treatment block (2, 3) includes
replacement filter cartridge includes replace-
ment filter cartridge K5 (for RO-101S, RO-102S,
Aquaphor RO-101S IL, Aquaphor RO-102S IL) (3)
or cartridge K1 (for RO-101S EU, RO-102S EU)
(3) and K2 (2). The preliminary water treatment
block removes any impurities that can damage
membrane cartridge, such as ferric hydroxide
and active chlorine.
• Reverse Osmosis membrane block (4) includes
the replacement membrane cartridge Aquaphor
RO-50S (for RO-101S, RO-101SEU, Aquaphor
RO-101S IL) or Aquaphor RO-100S (for RO-102S,
RO-102SEU, Aquaphor RO-102S IL) and puri-
fies water by removing organic compounds,
non-organic compounds, and salts while sof-
tening water.
• Water conditioning block (5) includes the min-
eralizing cartridge K7M (for RO-101S, RO-102S,
Aquaphor RO-101S IL) or K7BM (for RO-101S
EU, RO-102S EU, Aquaphor RO-102S IL). The
water conditioning block eliminates unwanted
odors and flavors from water while mineralizing
the water.
How RO works
The water coming from the cold water mains
enters RO and passes through the preliminary
water treatment block. From there, water enters
the Reverse Osmosis membrane block via the
automatic check valve. The unit housing the
membrane cartridge has two outlets: the treated
water outlet and the drain water outlet. On its
way to the drain, the water will also pass through
a flow restrictor. The flow restrictor flushes the
drain water that goes down the drain.
The treated water enters the storage tank that
has a built-in membrane. This separates the tank
into two chambers: storage and technical. The
storage chamber contains the fully purified drink-
ing water, while the technical chamber contains
water from the mains. As clear water collects,
water from the mains is forced from the techni-
cal chamber into the drain, also preventing the
accumulation of clear water. When the storage
tank is full, the automatic check valve cuts off
the water intake into RO.

When the clean water faucet is opened, water
from the mains enters the technical chamber
via the shutoff valve and forces treated water
from the storage chamber through the faucet
via the conditioning block. The automatic check
valve then triggers and opens water supply to
the RO-storage tank.
5. RO installation
ATTENTION! Only install your RO by a qualified
plumber who is certified to perform the instal-
lation in accordance with state law.
Locate the appropriate installation place for the
faucet and RO. Take care to ensure that the de-
livery tubes are pulled freely, without over bend-
ing. RO must be installed on a flat, even solid
surface as installation on an uneven surface may
cause vibration or noise. Additionally, RO must
be located away from heat sources, such as
kitchen ovens, hot water supply pipes, dishwash-
ers or washing machines, or at least isolated
from such heat sources.

• Turn the water off at the cold water main.
• Open the kitchen faucet to discharge pressure
into the water line.
• Unscrew the nut from the flexible line cap,
leading to the faucet on the cold water main.
ATTENTION! Residual water will be left inside
of the flexible JG tube after discharge of water.
When disconnecting the flexible line, please use
a 200 ml or similar size container to drain the
water left behind in the tube.
• Screw the cap nut off the connection node and
on the cold water main thread.
• Screw the cap nut off the flexible line, and then
on the connection node thread.
• Set the shutoff valve on the connection node
to the closed position and then make sure that
the connection is completely leak-proof by sup-
plying water to the cold water main.
• Connect JG tube (follow the instructions below
to correctly connect the JG tubes).
ATTENTION! Make sure that the sealing O-Ring
is located correctly in its place and not damaged
during installation.
Connection of JG tubes
Pull the locking clip (2) off the plastic plug (1).
Then install the previously wetted end of the
tube (3) into the fitting piece approx.15 mm up
to the stop. Next, put the locking clip (2) back.
Make sure that the tube (3) is tightened correctly:
the tube should not be pulled out by force greater
than 8-10 kgf.
Disconnection of JG tubes
Pull the locking clip (2) off the plastic plug (1),
then pull the tube (3) out by applying pressure
on the face of the connecting piece. To apply
pressure, use the tube disconnection key (4)
included in the water filter set.

(6) lock washers on the thread bushing and
screw on the fastening nut (7);
• Put on the captive-nut (9) on the plastic pipe
(10) with pressed metal bushing (8) (fig. 8) and
screw on the nut onto the tail end of the faucet.
ATTENTION!
• When you replace the original tap with a dif-
ferent one, there may be noise when you open
it, and clean water flow reduction from the tap
may occur.
• When you replace the original pipes with the
longer ones, there may be noise and clean
water flow reduction from the tap.
• If the water filter has not been used for a long
time, the valves may turn on, making short-term
noise. It is not a sign of the system malfunction.
• Open the clean water tap fully when you use
the water filter, otherwise noise may occur. It
is not a sign of the water filter malfunction.
7. Drain saddle installation
It is best install the drain saddle on the sink drain
before the siphon trap or bend (the drain saddle
on most drain pipes is of ~40 mm diameter).
1. Apply the part of the collar with the fitting to
the pipe to determine the optimal position of
the collar and the pipe hole.
2. Drill a 7 mm hole in the planned tube location
on the tube pipe.
3. Remove the cut circle from the sealing
gasket (1).
4. Remove the protective tape (2) from the seal-
ing gasket (1). Place the sealing gasket (1) on
the collar inner side, so that the hole in the
gasket meets the hole in the collar fitting.
5. Install the collar onto the pipe, carefully align-
ing the hole in the fitting with the drilled hole;
tighten the bolts(3). The bolts must be tight-
ened evenly in such a way that the two parts
of the collar are located in parallel.
6. Put the plastic nut onto the JG drain tube (1/4”,
black) so that the tube is protruding from the
other side of the nut by a length of 20 mm
(see figure 9b).
To eliminate any noise from the water in the drain
saddle, push the JG tube deeper into the pipe.

11. Recommended filter
replacement
The frequency at which the filter and membrane
cartridges should be replaced depends on the
quality of the water that enters the appliance.
Contact your water treatment specialist for re-
placement filters and parts.
NOTE: The installation of the RO appliance on
a pre-treated water supply will greatly increase
the life of its filters.

12. Recommended filter
maintenance
The frequency at which the filter and membrane
cartridges should be replaced depends on your
tap water quality.
Note: Any filter that demonstrates reduced water
production or a slower rate of flow is likely to be
overdue for a change.
WARNING: Shut off the water to the appliance
before beginning any maintenance work.

13
Replacement of filter cartridge
К5 / К1 (1)
Reduces dirt and other sediment particle matter
of 5 micron or larger in the incoming water.
Replace the К5 / К1 filter cartridge every three
months.
Replacement
of filter cartridge K2 (2)
This reduces free chlorine from the incoming
water and protects the membrane from any chlo-
rine degradation. Changing frequency of the
replacement filter cartridge K2 should be based
on the free chlorine levels in the incoming water.
If the free chlorine is 1 ppm or less, then the re-
placement filter cartridge K2 should be replaced
once a year. If the free chlorine level is greater
than 1 ppm, then the replacement filter cartridge
K2 should be replaced once in every six months.
Replacement membrane
cartridge RO-50S /
RO-100S (3)
The semi-permeable membrane cartridge (3) sep-
arates the majority of the remaining suspended
solids and most of the dissolved solids from the
water molecules. These separated impurities are
then washed down the drain.
The membrane cartridge (3) is critical for the
effective reduction of total dissolved solids (TDS).
The treated water should be tested periodically
to verify that the appliance is performing satis-
factorily. A noticeable change in water quality
and taste may occur. If this happens, it is an
indicator that a filter change is needed. Replace
the membrane cartridge at least once a year.
Replacement filter cartridge
K7M / К7ВМ (4)
The replacement filter cartridge K7M or К7ВМ (4)
is the final stage of filtration. It filters the water
and enriches it with useful minerals that improve
not only the taste, but also maintains the correct
drinking water salt balance. You should replace
the post filter every 6 months.
