The F OX iron removal filter oxidizes any dissolved iron in the water with oxygen and ozone. The
oxygen is pulled in from ambient air and the ozone is generated on site with a small ozone generator.
The oxidized iron is filtered out with the back washable sand filter.
Principles of operation: The ozone component provides protection from the common problem of iron
bacteria bio-film which will plug up iron filtration systems unless the bacteria are controlled. Ozone is
an energized O3 form of oxygen which not only accelerates oxidation of iron, but also destroys bacteria
in the process.
HTU-500 O one Generator: The ozone generator that comes with the F OX series is an industrial
grade ozone generator that will provide years of reliable service. The ozone generator turns on with a
12 volt signal from the filter valve head during the 40 minute brine cycle. While the ozone generator is
on, the valve head draws in dry air and ozone into the head
space of the filter tank. The air and ozone mixture oxidizes any
dissolved iron in the water so that it can be filtered.
O one generator Install:
1. Mount the ozone generator on a wall near the filter
within range of the signal wire and an outlet to power
the unit.
2. The orange dessicant cylinder is plumbed into the feed
gas 1/4” barb fitting. The dessicant will dry the
incoming air to
prevent the buildup of
nitric acid from
moisture.
3. Plumb ozone to the
brine elbow with 1/4”
D ozone resistant tubing (included).
4. Remove the face cover
from the valve head
and identify the
terminal for the signal wire. (red circle)
5. After threading the signal wire through the same opening
for the power adapter, secure the red and black wire to
the terminal block.
6. Replace the cover.
7. Plug both the ozone generator and the filter head to a
powered outlet.
8. Turn the ozone generator switch on. Turn the power
level knob all the way counter clockwise.

9. Hold the far right “Regen” button for 5 seconds to begin the backwash cycle.
10. Press the button again to begin the brine cycle.
11. Observe the ozone generator turn on (orange light) after one minute of the brine cycle. Ozone
production will continue for the duration of the brine cycle.
Continue installation and setup of the filter tank and plumbing with the next section of this manual.
