EVERY WEEK
Lubrication of the pump
The pump is lubricated with grease at the
indicated area. Remove the black plug on
the front of the BlueBox to reach the grease
point. Be generous. We recommend 3-4
squeezes with a grease tool (you cannot
overgrease the pump). Some grease might
run out of the pump if it is full, but this is not
damaging to the pump or the purifier.
EVERY MONTH
• Check that all the connections and clamps are tightened correctly.
• Ensure that filters cartridges, membranes and UV-light bulb are fittet correctly.
• Check that the drainage pipes in the container are not blocked.
• Check all hoses for holes, tears and other signs of damage and water leakage.
• Check the pump’s membrane. If there is water leaking out of the small hole at the bottom of
the pump, the membrane is not watertight and must be changed.
EVERY YEAR
We recommend that the UV glass tube is removed from the chamber and cleaned using a damp
cloth infused with a solution of a mild cleaning agent.
PUMP MAINTENANCE
The membranes must be renewed once a year.
1Remove the two bolts on top of the motor and replace filter.
2Remove the four bolts either side of each cylinder and replace filter.
3Assemble in reverse order.
IMPORTANT
The BlueBox 1200RORS must be started every 3 months in order to maintain flexibility in rubber
parts and to avoid build up of contaminants.

10 minutes.
3Turn the blue pressure valve clockwise to show approximately 8 bars of operating pressure.
Run the BlueBox at this setting for 30 minutes.
4Open the pressure valve all the way and run the system with clean water for 10 minutes
without pressure, and then again for 10 minutes with 8 bars of pressure.
5Alkali cleaning (RoClean P111)
Dilute 1 kg of RoClean P101 in 50 litres of water.
Insert all three hoses into the container with the cleaning fluid (Flush water outlet, Raw water
inlet and Clean water).
6Start the BlueBox and let the system rinse without pressure (open the blue pressure valve) for
10 minutes.
7Turn the blue pressure valve clockwise to show approximately 8 bars of operating pressure.
Run the BlueBox at this setting for 30 minutes.
8Open the pressure valve all the way and run the system with clean water for 15 minutes
without pressure, and then again for 15 minutes with 8 bars of pressure.
9Turn off the BlueBox, following the procedure in ‘PART 3 After using BlueBox’.
If the first filter, 25 micron, is not too damaged (clogged), it can be rinsed and brushed down
and reinstalled.
NOTE For a thorough cleaning, please repeat step 2, 3, 6 and 7, 2-3 times and/or let the
membranes soak for up to 4 hours.
Preservation of membranes during storage or period of stand-still.
If the unit is to be stored (not used) for longer than 14 days, the membranes must be treated with
a 20 % glycol solution or RoCide preservation mixture, which will also protect it against freezing
temperatures. Remember to run a cleaning process of the system before taking into use.
IMPORTANT
The cleaning fluid must not exceed 45 ºC
The pH value of the cleaning fluid must remain within 2-11 pH

SLEEVE CLEANING & LAMP REPLACEMENT
Lamp replacement
Unplug the BlueBox from the electrical socket.
Let the unit cool for 10 minutes.
Remove the UV-lamp from the container.
Sleeve cleaning
Minerals in the water slowly form a coating on the sleeve. This coating must be removed because
it reduces the amount of UV light reaching the water, thereby reducing purification performance.
Equipment required
Clean cotton Latex or plastic gloves are preferred
Scale remover Vinegar or a citrus-based product
Cloth Must be soft, lint-free, and chemical-free. No clean-wipes must be used
Cotton swab
Lamp life
The amount of UV light created by the lamp decreases over time, requiring a replacement of the
lamp every 12 months. The controller displays the total lamp life remaining in days.
At 0 (zero) days, the controller will display ‘A3’ and supply an intermittent audible chirp (1 second
on, 5 seconds off), indicating the need to change the lamp.
NOTE
The UV system is designed to operate continuously and should not be shut
off for short periods of time, such as over a period of less than three weeks.
RESETTING LAMP LIFE
1Disconnect the lamp from the controller.
2Hold the ‘RESET’ button down while reapplying power to the Controller until you see ‘rSet’
on the display, then release.
3A 5 second delay will occur until your hear an audible tone and the display will once again
read ‘365’.

IMPORTANT NOTE
Please be aware of the following:
• Make sure that the electricity supply is stable.
• The Reverse Osmosis membranes (RO filters) in the BlueBox system normally have to be changed
every 2 years depending on the working hours and quality of feed water.
• Please do not place the system in directly sunlight. Heat may affect the electronics in the switch
board box.
• As the UV-light contains glass, the system must not be affected by hard shock.
• The system must be free of dust and dirt.
• The system must not be exposed for frost. Temperatures below 0 ºC (zero degrees Celsius) can ruin
the RO membranes. E.g. during a long-haul flight, the BlueBox should be started with low pressure
for a while in order to defrost the membranes without damaging them. For long term storage in
freezing temperatures, please contact Much More Water at [e-mail].
• As an industrial standard for Reverse Osmosis, the output of the membranes decreases in
proportion with the temperature of the raw water: 3 % reduction per 1 ºC measured from 25 ºC.
• Beware of silt, humus and high levels of iron in the raw water. These compounds will eventually spoil
the membranes, since very small ‘plates’ from these compounds will fill up the membranes over
time. The only way to deal with this is to install an improved pre-filtration system.
• Beware of high content of iron/manganese. Especially coming from boreholes, high levels of iron
and manganese will clog the membranes and render them useless. It may be advisable to install an
improved pre-filtration system, using anti-scalants.
