vGeneral Information

OPS70 Simple Install Guide 3
vInstallation Requirements
Operating a system on water supplies outside
of the parameters listed below may lead to
premature membrane failure. This product
is for commercial use only and must be
installed and maintained in accordance with
manufacturer’s guidelines and local regulatory
plumbing codes.
Operating Parameters
Typical Membrane TDS Rejection: 97+%
Feed Temperature: 40˚ - 100˚F (4˚ - 38˚C)
Feed Pressure: 50 - 80 psi
(3.4 - 5.9 bar) at 1 gpm
Production (at 77˚F, 60 psi): 70 gals./day
(2.9 gals./hr.)
Recovery: Up to 33%
IMPORTANT NOTE: The production rate is
strictly dependent on feed water temperature
and pressure.
For example: Operating pressure of 30
psi will reduce production by 50%, or
48˚F feedwater will reduce production by
50%.
Location
The system should be installed indoors,
within 25 feet of the equipment water is being
supplied to, and protected from the elements.
Do not let the processor or storage tank
freeze or be exposed to rain or direct sunlight.
Feed Water Connection
An adequate ow and pressure of water to
the unit is essential for successful operation.
Drain
A drain should be located within 10 feet of
the system. Drain must allow a minimum
ow of 2 gals/min. Compliance with most
local plumbing codes requires installation
of an approved air gap in the drain line. The
drain connection should be accessible for
system set-up and service.
Feed-Water Chemistry
Feed TDS: Up to 1200 ppm
Feed pH: 6 - 10
Hardness: 12 grains or less
Free Chlorine: <2 mg/L
Iron (Fe): 0.1 mg/L maximum
Turbidity: <0.05 NTU
Manganese: 0.05 mg/L maximum
Hydrogen Sulde: 0.0 mg/L
Note: The presence of silica or occulants
such as alum or cationic polymers in the
feedwater may cause membrane fouling and
may require special pretreatment. Please
note that membrane failure due to fouling is
not covered by the warranty.
Storage Tank
The tank must be located within 10 feet of
the water processor. The oor beneath the
storage tank should be smooth, clean and
free of sharp objects that could puncture the
bottom of the tank.
Optimized Water Lines to Equipment
Tubing, piping and associated ttings used
to connect optimized water to equipment
should be food grade material with a minimum
pressure rating of 75 PSI. Non-metal, plastic
pipe or reinforced hose or tubing are
recommended. For distribution runs longer
then 15 feet use larger inside diameter tubing
or hose to minimize pressure drop.

When installing, locate the storage
tank as near the equipment as
possible to maximize water pressure
and ow. Cut tubing to an ecient
length using a tubing cutter or sharp
blade. Do not cut with wire crimpers
or dikes. When routing and securing
tubing avoid loops or kinks.

Mount the system with the Pre-Installed Drain
Line (1/4” black) and Bypass Assembly (3/8” red)
as shown below. Step 1
Attach the system with 2 screws (user supplied)
through the attachment keyholes shown below.
Use anchors or attach directly to studs. Be sure
to allow at least 3” clearance below cartridges
for removal.
vMount Processor
Use Keyholes in Bracket

Step 2a
Insert the AMS-QT10 Membrane into the center
head and rotate it to the right 1/4 turn to lock.
Step 2b
Remove the plug from the tting at the bottom
of the Membrane and insert the end of the
black tubing coming from the lower left part of
the Permeate Pump.
Attention: Warranty will be void if
this step is not performed properly.
Step 3
Insert and lock the CTO-Q10 Cartridge into the
Pre-Filter Head as shown.
NOTE: The pre-lter head has a built-in shut o
valve. When the lter is removed, water will not
ow. When the lter is installed, water will ow
to the system.

Step 4
Route and connect the loose end of 1/4”
black tubing coming from Permeate Pump on
processor to a suitable drain; cut to length and
fasten to the wall and at the drain connection.
(Some locations may require an approved air
gap. Optional OptiPure Air Gap available, part
number: 164-89905)
Step 5a
Install the Feedwater Adapter (from the
installation kit) into the user-supplied 1/2”
Feedwater Supply Valve. (Do not over-tighten.)
Step 5b
Connect a piece of 3/8” green tubing to the Feed
Water Supply Valve. Connect the other end to
the Feed Water Inlet on processor.
Step 6
Install the Tank Valve – hand tighten. Install the
3/8” Tee (tubing is in the tee) as shown above.
Ensure the Valve is CLOSED.

Connect a piece of 3/8” blue tubing to the
Optimized Water Fitting from the processor.
Connect the other end to the Tank Tee as
shown below.
Step 7b
The remaining connection at the Tank Tee is the
Optimized Water Outlet. Insert the barbed end
of the connector tting into the 1/2” gray hose
and secure with clamp. Insert into the Tank Tee
as shown. This will later be the water supply
connection to downstream equipment.
Do not connect to equipment at this time.

Close the Feed Valve after ushing.
Note: During normal operation, the water
ow alternates between the optimized water
line and the drain line. You will notice that the
water ow pulses when the system is making

Step 11a
Route and secure the 1/2” gray hose from the
Optimized Water Outlet on the Tank to the
downstream equipment connection.
Step 11b
Make the connection to the equipment. If used,
insert the barbed end of the 3/4” GHT connector
(supplied) into the 1/2” gray hose and secure
clamp. Connect ONLY to the treated/steam
water connection at the equipment. Do not
connect to the drain/condensate supply.
Step 12
Turn the Tank Valve to the OPEN position. The
installation is complete and the system is ready
to be placed into service.

Step 13
OPEN the Feed Supply Valve and check for
leaks. Allow time for the tank to ll before
using connected equipment (this could take 30
minutes to several hours depending on the tank
capacity).
vPlace in Service vQuick Tank Fill
If a water supply to downstream
equipment is immediately
needed, the storage tank can be
quickly lled.
Step 13
Simply OPEN the Bypass Valve and un-ltered
water will ow directly into the storage tank.
When the tank is full, or a desired level is
reached, CLOSE the Bypass Valve. The system is
now in normal operating mode and the opti-
mized water will ow to the tank.
IMPORTANT: Do not leave the system in
bypass. This could result in damage to the
downstream equipment.

vOperation
The system operates normally when water,
under pressure, is supplied to the system.
Typical lter replacement is every 6 months
(CTOS-Q10 and ILMA-10.14). Typical membrane
replacement is every 24 months (AMS-QT10) or
less, based on water quality.
EMERGENCY BYPASS
In the event the water supply or pressure to
downstream equipment becomes inadequate
OPEN the Built-In Bypass Valve and resume
normal use of equipment. When nished using
equipment return the Valve to the CLOSED
position. DO NOT leave the system in bypass
mode for prolonged periods of time.
IMPORTANT: Leaving the system in bypass
could cause damage to downstream
equipment. If the problem persists contact
your OptiPure dealer for assistance.
Step 1

other maintenance.
To return to normal operation reverse these
steps.
