Section 2
Installation
General
These instructions are provided to assist the qualified
installer. Check your local Yellow Pages for the name of the
nearest Manitowoc distributor, or call Manitowoc Ice for
information.
The ArcticPure® Plus water filtration systems are designed
to reduce coarse and fine particulate matter from the
incoming potable water supply. Chlorine will be reduced in
the water so as not to adversely affect the ice produced or
the equipment components. Scale inhibitor is automatically
fed into the water to inhibit the formation of scale on
water solenoids and evaporator plates. The IAPMO R&T
mark indicates that these products have met certification
requirements under the NSF/ANSI & CSA standards listed in
the Performance Data Sheet. The UPC mark indicates that
these products have met the applicable U.S. and Canadian
requirements for plumbing products.
• DO NOT install on line pressure above 125 psi (862 kPa).
• DO NOT install on hot water line. Maximum temperature
allowed is 100°F (38°C).
• DO NOT install in direct sunlight.
• DO NOT reverse connections. The system must be
installed with the inlet and outlet as labeled.
• DO NOT install ArcticPure® Plus filter systems in locations
where they can be damaged by other free-standing
equipment.
• PROTECT from freezing.
• INSTALLATION must comply with existing state or local
plumbing codes.
This piece of equipment has American sizes on hardware. All
metric conversions are approximate and vary in size.
Safety
Always follow these safety precautions when installing and
operating the water filter system.
nWarning
DO NOT use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or
of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before
or after the system.
Notice
DO NOT use a torch or other high temperature sources
near filter or cartridge.
https://www.iapmort.org/media/5271/rt_markguidelines.pdf
AR-Pre-P, AR-10000-P, AR-20000-P and AR-40000-P systems are certified by IAPMO R&T against CSA B483.1; NSF/ANSI 372 for
Low Lead Content; NSF/ANSI 42 and/or *NSF/ANSI 53 for the reduction of claims listed in the Performance Data Sheet.
*NSF/ANSI 53 Cyst reduction claims are valid only when system flow is restricted at or below the specified range and/or
as specified in the ice machine capacity ranges on page 5. System flow rates should be verified after installation to ensure
filterable cyst reduction per the above.
Please see ice machine manufacturer’s technical publications for internal flow controller maximum operating flow rate
specifications.

8 Part Number: 000016341 Rev00 1/21
Installation Section 2
Location
ArcticPure® Plus water filtration systems must be located
on the incoming cold water line and preferably away from
heavy traffic areas. The system must be mounted on a wall
or structure that will support the weight of the system when
filled with water.
Notice
This product is designed for cold water use only (less than
100°F [38°C]). Passing hot water through this product
may seriously damage filter housings and/or cartridges
and affect warranty coverage.
Important
Do not disassemble manifold head. No user serviceable
parts are available. The entire manifold head is the only
available replacement part.
ArcticPure® Plus systems may be used with metal or non-
metallic piping systems.
NOTE: Any non-metallic fittings used in the installation must
be of adequate rating for the line pressure.
Water Service
All ArcticPure® Plus systems come with 3/8" Parker
connections on the inlet and outlet ports.
Parker connections are suitable for use with the following
tubing:
• Polyethylene
• Nylon
• Polyurethane
• Seamless Brass (soft)
• Seamless Copper (soft)
• Seamless Mild Steel (soft)
Notice
DO NOT use with hard metal tubing such as:
• Stainless steel
• Chrome plated copper
• Hard metal polished tubing

to leave enough clearance (a minimum of 2" [5 cm]
beneath the filter cartridge length is recommended) to
allow for cartridge change out.
2. Mark and drill mounting holes.
3. Mount filter head, using key hole slots in the mounting
bracket.
4. Remove the protective cap from the cartridge.
5. Inspect the cartridge and o-rings for damage. See
Recommended Replacement Parts List in Replacement
Filter Part Numbers if replacement is required.
,Caution
Do not use petroleum jelly to lubricate o-rings.
6. Lubricate o-rings with food grade lubricant - Do not use
petroleum jelly.
7. With the product label facing to the left, insert the
cartridge into the filter head. Rotate 1/4 turn to the right
to secure. Product label will face forward.

NOTE: If the AR-Pre-P is being retrofitted to an existing
ArcticPure® Plus system, shut off the incoming water supply,
relieve the filter pressure by removing the existing filter
cartridge(s), and disengage the water inlet line. A small
quantity of water will be vented from the cartridge body.
1. Mark and drill the mounting holes for the AR-Pre-P.
2. Insert the precut tubing into the outlet fitting of the AR-
Pre-P head.
3. Insert opposite end of the tubing into the inlet fitting of
the primary filter assembly.
Notice
The fitting will grip before it seals. Tubing must be pushed
into the tube stop to prevent leaks.
4. Pull on the tubing to be sure it is secure. If the tubing
releases, refer to the Troubleshooting section of this
manual to reinstall.
5. Align the prefilter mounting keyhole slots with the
predrilled holes.
6. Install mounting screws and tighten.
7. Insert incoming water line into the inlet port of the
AR-Pre-P. Follow notes and steps 1-3 under “Installation -
AR-10000-P/AR-20000-P/AR-40000-P”.
8. Remove the protective cap from the cartridge.
9. Inspect the cartridge and o-rings for damage. See
Recommended Replacement Parts List if replacement is
required.
,Caution
Do not use petroleum jelly to lubricate o-rings.
10. Lubricate o-rings with food grade lubricant - Do not use
petroleum jelly.

ArcticPure® Plus cartridges will need to be changed for one
or more of the following reasons:
• The filter has trapped water-borne sediment and the
water flow has stopped or water pressure through the
filter has dropped below 20 psi (138 kPa).
• The maximum life of the carbon filter has been reached
and the filter will no longer reduce chlorine to acceptable
levels.
• The scale inhibitor has been completely dissolved and
hard scale build-up may accelerate.
It is recommended that ArcticPure® Plus filter cartridges be
changed out:
• Every 6 months or when water pressure through the
system drops below 20 psi (138 kPa), whichever occurs
first.
To change the filter:
1. Rotate the cartridge 1/4 turn to the left and pull down.
The cartridge should easily release. Dispose of used
cartridge.
Important
ArcticPure® Plus systems are equipped with internal shut-
off valves. It is not necessary to shut off the incoming
water supply during cartridge change out.
2. Remove the protective cap from the cartridge.
3. Inspect the cartridge and o-rings for damage. See
Replacement Parts list if replacement is required.
Lubricate o-rings with food grade lubricant.
,Caution
Do not use petroleum jelly to lubricate o-rings.
4. With the product label facing to the left, insert the
cartridge into the filter head and push up. Rotate 1/4 turn
to the right to secure. Product label will face forward.
,Caution
Should the cartridge drop from a height of greater than 3
feet, inspect the outer casing. If there is any evidence of
the case cracking do not use.

Problem Cause To Correct
No water through filter system Water to filter system shut off Turn on water supply
Filter cartridges plugged Replace filter cartridges — See “Changing Cartridges”
Low water flow through filter System below 25 psi Restore system pressure Repair water supply to filter
Filter cartridges plugged Replace filter cartridges — See “Changing Cartridges”
Water leak on water inlet/outlet Water line ends are damaged Trim water line to remove damaged area — See
“Repairing Inlet/Outlet Connections”
O-ring in filter head is damaged Replace o-ring — See “Changing Cartridges”
Water leak between head and filter cartridge Damaged o-ring on filter cartridge Replace o-ring — See “Changing Cartridges”
Repairing Inlet/Outlet Connections
A leak may occur at the inlet/outlet connections because of
defective tubing. To repair:
1. Turn off incoming water supply and depressurize system
by removing the filter cartridge(s).
2. Disconnect the water line by pushing the collet squarely
against the face of the fitting.
3. Pull the tubing to release.
4. To repair the connection, cut off at least 3/8" (6.4 mm)
from the end of the tubing. Tubing ends must be cut
square to ensure a positive seal.
5. Refer to notes and instructions under “Installation -
AR-10000-P/AR-20000-P/AR-40000-P” to reconnect the
water line.
