Introduction to the main functions of the reverse osmosis system
RO-membrane:
0,0001 µm effective filtration of
bacteria, viruses, heavy metals,
pesticides, insecticides, residues,
and other harmful substances.
Booster pump 400/ 600 GPD:
Increases the pressure in the membrane
housing to overcome the osmotic
pressure.
Stage 1: „Melt blown“filter:
10 µm filtering sediments as rust,
sand, dust etc.
Stage 2: Granular activated carbon filter:
Filtration of chlorine, org. substances,
taste and odor impairments, oils, flavors,
etc.
Stage 3: Sediment filter 1 µm:
For filtering finest particles and
chemical residues, protects the RO-
membrane.
Stage 5: T33 activated carbon post filter:
Improves the taste of the water and keeps
it fresh.
Combination valve: Controls the
concentrate flow rate during
operation and flush modes.
Inlet solenoid valves:
Controls the system's water flow.
Manometer:
Measuring range 0 –1,6 MPa and 0
–220 psi.
Check valve:
Prevents a backflow of the permeate in
standby mode.
High pressure switch (HPT):
The booster pump switches off
automatically when the pressure is
reached.
Low pressure switch (LPT):
The booster pump switches off
automatically when the flow pressure falls
below the minimum.

4. Installation of the water supply
4.1 Shut off the water supply.
4.2 Release the flex tube of your faucet in the cold water and screw the 3-way inlet valve to the water pipe.
4.3 Ensure a correct fit of the washers.
5. Install the ball valve to the reverse osmosis system.
5.1 Wrap Teflon tape around the male thread of the
ball valve and screw it into the 3-way inlet valve.
5.2 Take the 3/8“ tube and carefully cut it to the
desired length with the cutter. Make sure that
you do not squeeze the tube end when cutting
because it can lead to leaks.
5.3 Guide the union nut over one end of the 3/8“
tube, push the tube over the broadening on the
ball valve and fasten the union nut.

6. Installation of the faucet
6.1 Mark the place where you want to mount your osmosis
faucet.
6.2 Use a drilling machine to drill a 12 mm diameter hole through
the sink or worktop.
6.3 Guide the base and the white rubber seal over the threaded
rod and place the fitting in the hole in the worktop or sink.
6.4 Guide the black washer onto the threaded rod and secure the
fitting by hand-tightening the wing screw.
6.5 Push the tube adapter onto the tube connector to the end and
pull it out a little to secure it.
6.6 Finally, insert the ¼ “tube into the tube adapter and secure
with the blue safety clips.
7. Installation wastewater
6.1 Drill a 6 mm hole above
the siphon bend.
6.2 Mount the supplied drain clamp with
the seal on the hole and tighten the screws
with a screwdriver.
6.3 Insert the wastewater
tube into the quick-
change adapter.

8. Installation Aquastop leak sensor (optional)
An Aquastop leak sensor with two separate inserts is included in the scope of delivery for further protection
against leaks. An insert is placed in the mount and swells as soon as it gets in contact with water. This opens
the flap and immediately cuts off the water supply to the system. Store the extra insert in a dry place.
Make sure that the leak sensor is installed on a dry location below the RO unit. First connect the 3/8" tube
of the water inlet to the leak sensor and run another 3/8" tube from the outlet of the leak sensor to the inlet
of your RO unit.
When installing the device for the first time, leave out the insert, as leaks can still occur. Use the insert only
after the installation has been completed and when the system is leakproof after the test run.
9. Installation of the reverse osmosis membrane
9.1 Remove the tube from the L-adapter on the housing
lid and open it with the appropriate spanner.
9.2 Take the new membrane out of the packaging and
press the end with the two O-rings into the membrane
housing first (Pay attention to the installation direction
and make sure that the connection piece of the
membrane has two O-rings).
9.3 Screw the housing lid back on hand-tight and insert the
tube into the L-adapter.

Initial start-up
Please make sure that the faucet of the reverse osmosis system is closed when the system
is started up for the first time, so that the system can perform an automatic flush after
plugging in the power switch. This ensures that any possible coal dust from the prefilters
will be flushed out and does not reach the membrane!
Usage hint
To prevent microbial contamination on the membrane during storage and transport, the membrane was
coated with a light protective solution. Therefore, dispose of the first 50-100 liters of osmosis water and do
not use it as drinking water.
When you start to operate the device, the TDS value of the water may be slightly increased. After a short
runtime, this value drops again and stabilizes.
If the inlet pressure is greater than 4 bar, please install a separate pressure reducer in the inlet of your
reverse osmosis system.
Maintenance and Care
Regular use of your system prevents it from drying out and possible hygiene problems.
If you are not going to use the device for a long time, please disconnect the water supply and the power plug
of your reverse osmosis system.
You should change the filter when you have reached the maximum service life or water volume.
The service life of six months based on DIN standard maintenance of drinking water systems DIN EN 806-5:
2012 must be complied with for reasons of hygiene.

In addition, you should consider changing early if the following situations arise:
▪Bad water quality (Taste changes, the TDS value of the water increases).
▪Noticeable reduction in production volume.
▪Pressure fluctuations, high indicated pressure (> 10 bar).

Filter change
1. Installation prefilters
Before you start changing the filters, disconnect the water supply to your RO unit and pull the 230 V power
plug out of the socket! When the system is empty and depressurized, the filter bowls can be opened more
easily.
Loosen the filter bowl with the help of
the appropriate spanner.
Remove the filter bowls including the
filter cartridges.
Pull the used filter cartridges out of
the filter bowl.
Unwrap the new filters and place
them in the filter bowls.

2. Installation of the T33 post filter:
2.1 Loosen the quick-change adapters on the T33 postfilter and disconnect them.
2.2 Prepare the new cartridge by screwing the supplied ¼” L-adapter into the cartridge. Before doing this,
wrap the threads with sufficient Teflon tape to prevent possible leaks.
2.3 Insert the tubes into the quick-change adapters as usual.
The replaced filter cartridges cannot be reused. Please dispose of all used filter cartridges exclusively in the
residual waste!
Make sure that the filter cartridge and
the internal O-ring are properly seated in
the filter bowl and fasten it onto the filter
head.
Close the filter bowls only hand tight.
Do not use the spanner!
