1. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the EMERALD HOME 60 Device for water purification
and electrochemical treatment. You have invested wisely in the well-being of your family, and you
have also taken a very important step towards improving your health!
EMERALD HOME 60 Device is a professional compact system to produce from ordinary tap
water in flow-through mode pure drinking water with antioxidant properties (CATHOLYTE),
purified from microbes and microbial toxins, iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide, heavy metal ions
and harmful organic compounds (including herbicides, pesticides, hormones, antibiotics,
antidepressants). Antioxidant water enriched with molecular hydrogen using electrochemical
activation (ECA) technology, has a beneficial effect on the entire body, normalizing metabolism and
the functioning of internal organs, cleansing them from toxins, strengthening the immune system,
and toning up the whole body.
EMERALD HOME 60 Device is used in apartments, offices, country houses, cottages, fitness
centers and spas to obtain clean and biologically beneficial antioxidant drinking water.
EMERALD HOME 60 Device is certified both in Russia and abroad, including European CE
certificate of conformity, European ROHS declaration (environmental certificate), ISO 9001 quality
management system certificate, hygiene certificate (expert report) of Rospotrebnadzor, EAC
certificate of conformity, GOST R certificate of conformity.
EMERALD HOME 60 Device is developed jointly with the Vitold Bakhir Institute of
Electrochemical Systems and Technologies, which is the world's main scientific center in the field
of electrochemical activation. Many years of experience and modern discoveries, as well as the
direct participation of V.M. Bakhir, Doctor of Technical Sciences, professor, have made it possible
to combine the most advanced water purification and activation technologies in the EMERALD
HOME 60 Device.

2. INFORMATION ABOUT ANTIOXIDANT WATER - CATHOLYTE
Theoretical concepts
Electrochemically activated catholyte is antioxidant water with pronounced electron-donor
properties. Catholyte is obtained from fresh water, in which powerful unipolar action (in the double
electric layer at the cathode of the electrochemical module) causes formation and storing of
metastable products of cathode electrochemical reactions, in particular, molecular ions НО2¯, О2¯,
ОН¯.
Electrochemically activated catholyte exhibits an electron-donor ability, i.e., it is a strong
reducing agent and reduction catalyst in various physicochemical reactions, including biochemical
ones. Catholyte provides for effective neutralization of toxic forms of active oxygen, including free
radicals, and restoration of the optimal balance of oxidative and reduction reactions (REDOX-status)
of the body in the intercellular fluid and in cells, which is directly related to the correct course of all
fundamental life processes of the body.
Practical application of catholyte
Electrochemically activated catholyte is one of the best antioxidants. Antioxidants found in
foods, vitamins or dietary supplements do not give a person proper protection. Due to their large
size, their molecules are not able to penetrate into cells and neutralize toxic oxidants (including free
radicals).
Antioxidant water from EMERALD HOME 60 Device has a beneficial effect on the entire
body, normalizing metabolism and the functioning of internal organs, cleansing toxins, and also
strengthening the immune system, improving memory and toning up the body.
Antioxidant water has a positive effect on the body when consumed as part of a regular diet and
protects against the action of strong toxic oxidants. The mechanism of action of antioxidant water is
based on the transfer of protective electron-donor properties to the body's internal environments,
helping the body's internal antioxidant system to cope with excessive exposure to various oxidative
factors of technogenic origin (polluted air, poor quality of drinking water and food, stress and
overwork, alcohol and cigarettes). Catholyte stimulates tissue respiration, which enhances the action
of vitamins and chemical antioxidants in the body. Antioxidant water also weakens the effect of
ionizing radiation, i.e. exhibits radioprotective properties characteristic of antioxidants. Antioxidant
water improves passive immunity and general condition of the body, improves the functioning of the
gastrointestinal tract and urinary tract, and normalizes blood counts.
Water treated in EMERALD HOME 60 Devices, like any natural antioxidant water, retains its
electron-donor properties for no more than a day from the date of obtaining. After this period, the
redox potential (ORP) of the treated water returns to the original ORP values of non-activated water,
on average, in the range (+100) ÷ (+250) mV, SCE. When boiling, the electron-donor properties of
antioxidant water also decrease. Antioxidant water produced in the EMERALD Device should be
stored for no more than a day in glass containers with a closed lid, away from direct sunlight and
heat sources.

SOME APPLICATIONS OF CATHOLYTE
Consuming as part of a normal diet - The human body is more than 70% water. Water plays
the most important role in the life of the human body. An adult needs to consume about 2 or 3 liters
of water per day to maintain the normal functioning of the body.
Cooking - food on antioxidant water is cooked faster and retains more beneficial properties.
Antioxidant water is great for soaking fruit, vegetables, fish and meat - due to its strong extraction
properties, catholyte actively removes harmful chemicals from foods, such as growth hormones and
antibiotics.
Making drinks - in addition to drinking antioxidant water from EMERALD Device, you can
enhance the antioxidant effect due to synergistic phenomena and make antioxidant drinks using
natural antioxidants - freshly squeezed juices of carrots, apples, various berries, by adding
antioxidant water from EMERALD Device to them. Herbal teas prepared with this water acquire a
special taste and aroma. Ice cubes made of frozen antioxidant water will give the drink an extra
benefit.
Air humidification - antioxidant water is useful in the form of a mist when used in
humidifiers. Humidified air with microdrops of antioxidant water, having the properties of a
reducing agent, produces a beneficial effect on the respiratory and cardiovascular systems, prevents
asthma attacks and allergic diseases.
Cosmetic purposes - for cosmetic purposes, antioxidant water is useful for washing, in the
form of ice cubes for wiping the face, or in the form of a spray to moisturize the skin. Moisturizing
masks based on antioxidant water will have a special effect.
Pets, plants and seeds - pets will prefer antioxidant water to regular tap or bottled water. The
use of water from the EMERALD Device for watering houseplants or germinating seeds will
promote their accelerated growth and development.
Important!
The latest technology in the EMERALD Device allows you to get clean and healthy antioxidant
water while maintaining a neutral acid-base balance (pH level). pH neutral antioxidant water is
suitable for regular consumption as part of a normal diet. Due to the similarity with the internal
environment of a human, such water is instantly absorbed by the body and holistically restores it.
EMERALD HOME 60 Device is not a medical device. Before using catholyte for preventive or
therapeutic purposes, consult a specialist. The information on the properties and methods of using
catholyte presented in this section is for reference only and does not apply to medical reports.

3. PRINCIPLES OF WATER TREATMENT
The EMERALD Device is high performance and runs on cold tap water, producing 40 to 60
liters of purified antioxidant drinking water (catholyte) per hour.
EMERALD Device ensures high quality of drinking water purification due to the consistent
combination of water activation in electrochemical modules and the use of auxiliary
environmentally friendly filter elements. The main elements of the EMERALD Device are 2 (two)
MB-11 type electrochemical modules (diaphragm flow-through electrochemical Bakhir modular
elements), in which oxidation reactions take place at the anode and reduction reactions at the
cathode (Fig. 1). Auxiliary elements in the Device are a catalytic filter and an electrokinetic filter. A
distinctive feature of EMERALD Device is the absence of replaceable and wear parts.
All processes of water purification and electrical treatment in Device are as close as possible to
what happens to water in wildlife. It has become possible to repeat the natural processes of water
purification and treatment due to the creation of reliable electrochemical modules, which are the
main elements of the system. The modules consist of two flow-through chambers: anode and
cathode. It is in these chambers that, under the influence of a positive current on the anode and a
negative current on the cathode, the water treatment processes suggested by nature are reproduced.
In the anode chamber of the module oxidative reactions take place, during which microbes and
microbial toxins are destroyed. In nature, a similar process of antimicrobial protection, phagocytosis,
has been occurring in all living organisms for millions of years without any failures. Also, in the
anode chamber, harmful organic compounds (including hormones and antibiotics), iron, manganese
and hydrogen sulfide are oxidized.
In the cathode chamber, reduction reactions take place during which water again acquires
useful antioxidant properties due to enrichment with hydrogen. In nature, similar processes occur
during the contact of spring water with rocks, as well as during phase transitions in the process of
melting glaciers. Also, cathode water treatment can effectively remove heavy metals.
The auxiliary catalytic filter consisting of natural coal of the highest standard (grade A
hydroanthracite) is used to purify water from oxidized organic and organochlorine compounds
(including herbicides, pesticides, surfactants, phenols, antibiotics, antidepressants, hormones).
The auxiliary electrokinetic filter, consisting of the purest natural mountain quartz, is an
environmentally friendly analogue of a mechanical fine filter and serves to purify water from
mechanical impurities, heavy metal hydroxides, oxidized forms of iron, manganese, hydrogen
sulfide.

Useful information!
All water purification and activation processes in EMERALD Devices are as close as possible
to what happens to water in living Nature, since the mechanism of fresh water purification in Nature
is represented by two main processes: redox reactions and filtration.
Therefore, in EMERALD Devices the combination of electrochemical anode and cathode water
treatment with environmentally-friendly filter elements requiring no replacement provides deep
water purification from microbes, microbial toxins, biofilms, heavy metals, iron, manganese,
hydrogen sulfide and harmful organic compounds.
The safety of water treatment using ECA technology is ensured by the complete absence of any
chemicals in EMERALD Devices. MB-11 type electrochemical modules in which electrical
treatment of water takes place, exchange only electrons with water, taking them from the water in
the anode chamber, where oxidative reactions take place and the water is enriched with oxygen, and
introducing the electrons into the water in the cathode chamber, where reduction reactions take place
and the water gets enriched with hydrogen.
This allows the catalytic and electrokinetic filters to work in «clean condition». In the hydraulic
scheme of the EMERALD Device, they are located after the anode destruction of microbes,
microbial toxins and biofilms, which significantly increases their efficiency and service life.
Therefore, the filter elements in the EMERALD Device are protected from microbial growth,
fouling with harmful biofilms and water pollution by microbial toxins!
It is important to note that EMERALD Device has no consumables or wear parts.
Electrochemical modules and auxiliary filter elements (catalytic filter and electrokinetic filter) do
not require periodic replacement under the operating conditions described in this Operating Manual.

u Shut off the cold water supply to the sink, and then open
the cold water shutoff valve on the kitchen faucet to
relieve pressure in the pipe;
u When using the flexible connection, unscrew the union
nut of the flexible cold water connection (7), through
which water is supplied to the faucet. Insert a t-bend with
a ball valve (1) into the gap between the cold water line
(3) and the flexible hose. If there are no sealing rings (2)
at the threaded connections, seal the connections (for
example, using Tangit uni-lock ® plumbing thread);
u Insert the union nut from the t-bend nipple (4) through the
1/4" tube (5);
u Push the 1/4" tube up to the stop on the t-bend nipple (4);
u Tighten the union nut to tightly fix the tube on the nipple;
Water is supplied through the t-bend by the valve (6).
For details, see the DEVICE OPERATING section.
Important! When
connecting these elements,
do not overtighten the
connections! This can lead
to a damage of the t-bend
or valve, including a
hidden one (with long-
term consequences). The
amount of plumbing
sealing material used must
not be excessive! In the
event of any mechanical
damage to the connection
node due to improper
installation and use,
warranty claims may be
rejected.

CONNECTING PRE-FILTERS BEFORE WATER INLET INTO THE DEVICE.
The delivery set includes a mud filter (Fig. 11.1) with a set of
connection fittings, which serves for preliminary rough mechanical water
purification before being supplied to the Device. Water filtration is carried
out by a stainless steel metal mesh built into the screw-of part of the case
(3, Fig. 11.1). The mud filter is connected in accordance with the diagram
in Fig. 8. When connecting the mud filter, make sure that the direction of
the water flow corresponds to the arrows on its case. Locking blue clip-
locks are installed in all quick-release connections. The two main
connection options are described below:
Option 1. Connection to the gap of the water supply tube (Fig. 11.2):
u The first part of the water supply tube from the t-bend (4, Fig. 8) is
connected to the inlet fitting (1) on the case of the mud filter;
u The second part of the water supply tube is connected from the outlet
fitting (2) on the mud filter case to the INLET fitting (5, Fig. 8) on the
Device;
Option 2. Connection directly to the Device using an elbow fitting
nipple (Fig. 11.3):
u The first part of the water supply tube from the t-bend (4, Fig. 8) is
connected to the inlet fitting (1) on the mud filter case;
u The outlet fitting (2) on the mud filter case is connected with a short
piece of connecting tube to the corresponding fitting of the elbow
fitting (4) with nipple; The nipple of the elbow fitting (5) is connected
to the INLET fitting (5, Fig. 8) on the Device casing. For ease of
connection, the mud filter is immediately supplied assembled with an
elbow fitting.
Important! If the source water does not comply with the requirements
of SanPiN 2.1.4.1074-01, it is possible to install an additional pre-
treatment system instead of the mud filter or before it (purchased
separately, see Table 6). To do this, by analogy with the mud filter, before
the Device the Slim Line 10" flask is connected (Fig. 11.4), into which,
depending on the type of contamination in the source water, various
replaceable filters are installed: polypropylene, carbon, ion exchange or
iron removal filter):
u The necessary filter is installed inside the flask;
u The corresponding threaded parts of the connecting fittings (3.4) are
screwed into the threaded fittings of the flask (1.2). Threaded
connections are sealed;
u In accordance with the arrows of the water flow on the flask case, the
water supply tube from the t-bend (4, Fig. 8) is connected to the water
inlet fitting into the flask (3), and the water outlet fitting from the flask
(4) is connected to the INLET fitting ( 5, Fig.8) on the Device; Blue
fixing clip-locks are installed in all quick-release fittings.
