Important
If needed, training videos can be found on the Streamline®website: www.streamline.systems
2Responsibilites
• If the powerful booster pump overheats on the Bravo® tank system,
an activation switch is triggered and the system will automatically
switch o.
• As the Bravo® tank system is powered by an electrical source, never use
the equipment in the rain, snow or strong winds.
• Never use the filtration system to clean people and/or animals.
• Before each use, undertake a visual check on all electrical cables for
damage. Never use the filtration system with a damaged cable.
• To avoid all mechanical hazards, place the Bravo® tank
system on an even surface, and ensure
sucient stability.
Over Heating
Electrical Hazards
Mechanical Hazards
The Bravo® tank is manufactured with the safety of the operator in mind, including some key
features such as result in serious personal injury.
• If the water pressure in the Bravo® tank trolley system is above the
standard 10bar pressure, the pressure relief valve opens on the pump
allowing a greater flow through the waste water outlet, reducing the
pressure in the system and through the pure water outlet.
System Safety
Over Pressure
Use only original accessories that come with the
Bravo® tank system, oering maximum quality
and security. Failure to use original accessories
absolves Varitech Systems Ltd, the manufacturer
from all liability.

Personal Safety
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating the Bravo® tank
system. Do not use the Bravo® tank system while you are tired or under the influence of alcohol,
drugs or medication. A moment of inattention while operating the tank system may result in serious
personal injury.
Additional protective equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing
protection may be required depending on the safety regulations in the operator surroundings.

3Filling The Tank
Filling The Tank
1. Ensure that the flush valve is closed and
needle valve on the R.O. filter is fully
open (turn anti-clockwise).
2. Switch the solenoid switch ‘on’ to fill. (Hold
the Up and Down Arrow on Controller 2)
3. Connect a hose to the port marked ‘Waste’.
This hose is the waste water hose and must
discharge into the nearest suitable drain.
4. Connect a hose from the mains water
supply, to the port marked ‘Water Inlet’ and
turn on the water supply. Allow the water to
flow through the system and out the waste
water hose, until all air has been
purged from the system.
5. Adjust the needle valve, by turning it
clockwise, until a 50:50 ratio of water to
tank and water to waste is achieved. (Ideally
a ratio of 40:60, pure/waste is required for
maximum R.O. eciency). Use a measuring
jug to set this ratio. Once the ratio is
accurate, count the number of revolutions
which the needle valve has been opened.
By remembering this number, future set
ups will not require the use of a measuring
jug , simply count the revolutions when
closing the needle valve.
6. The solenoid valve will automatically shut
o when the tank is full. Remember to
switch o the solenoid if you wish to turn
filling o earlier. Hold up and down arrows
to turn o the solenoid valve.

To Dispense Pure Water
1. Attach the 5mtr hose supplied to the port
marked ‘Feed’ and to the hosereel. If you
have a static hose reel mounted in the
vehicle, it would already be connected,
ready for use. Connect the other end of the
hose on the hosereel to the waterfed pole.
4. When you have completed the cleaning task, switch the pump o before disconnecting the
hoses from the poles and hosereels, by pressing and holding the button.
The system must not be stored under pressure as this with invalidate the warranty.
2. Switch the flow controller ‘on’ by pressing
the button, and adjust the flow of water
to the pole by increasing the number, until a
desired flow is achieved.
3. The pump MUST run continuously. If it is running intermittently whilst water is flowing to
the pole, decrease the speed on the flow controller by pressing the button, until the pump runs
continuously. Dierent pole lengths may require this setting to be altered.
4To Dispense Pure Water
Maintenance
Streamline water filtration systems are designed
to be used for window cleaning, bus cleaning,
and boat cleaning, etc. where a spot-free finish
is required. To achieve this, the system has a
series of filters to produce pure water with a
reading of 0ppm. However, the filters require
maintenance from time to time to maintain
optimum eciency.
If you have purchased a de-ionising resin bead
system, only recommended for use in soft water
areas, you are required to regularly take water
samples from the outlet of the last resin filter
and test the ppm reading with the TDS meter
supplied. Anything from 0ppm to 5ppm is
acceptable. Any reading above 5ppm indicates
that the resin beads are becoming spent and
need replacing. Debris and carbon filters should
be replaced at least every three months.
If you have purchased a reverse osmosis
(hereafter referred to as r.o.) filter system,
suitable for use in hard water areas, it is very
important that the maintenance and
procedures are carried out regularly and
accurately to ensure that your system
produces water inexpensively and eciently.
The third blue filter vessel is a softening resin
filter which removes the hardness from the
water before it enters the r.o. filter. The resin
becomes spent and can be regenerated with
softening salt. The frequency of the regenera-
tion depends on the TDS reading of the water
supply.
As an example, if the TDS reading of the water
supply is 100ppm, the softener resin is able to
treat approximately 2250-litres of water. If the
TDS reading of the water supply is 200ppm the
softener resin is able to treat half this amount.
Therefore, given a reading of 100ppm, the resin
will need to be regenerated every 900 litres
of water collected, as the r.o. filter only retains
40% of the total incoming water. To regenerate
the softener resin, fill the cartridge in the salt
housing with softening salt.
Disconnect the red hose from the outlet of the
r.o. filter and connect it to the outlet of the
softener resin filter (filter 3), thus allowing the
softener salt to run to waste. Connect the mains
supply hose to the filling port and turn on the
mains water supply. Allow the brine solution to
flow through the softener resin filter slowly until
the salt has completely dissolved. Turn o the
water supply, allow the water pressure to drop
completely, and repeat the above process with
a second fill of salt. Once the second fill has
dissolved, allow the water to flow for a further
five minutes in order to flush the salt out of the
softener resin filter. This final rinse is very
important, as salt ingress into the RO filter
could cause damage to the membrane.
The first two filters are debris and carbon
pre-filters and we recommend that these are
replaced at least every three months. This can
be done by simply unscrewing the filter bowls,
replacing the cartridges and then screwing the
bowls back on again, hand tight only!

RO Membrane
DI Filters
The Pumps
Once this regeneration process is complete,
remove the red hose and re-connect the blue
hose as before.
Then open up the Flushing Valve for 30 minutes
allowing water to flow out the rear pipe down
the drain. This operation flushes the RO
Membrane of any Debris and keeps it in
prestige condition.
The pumps are protected by a pre-filter with a
clear top, allowing for visual inspection. If any
debris accumulates in the pre-filter, unscrew the
top and flush out with clean water.
The pumps have a built in pressure switch.
When switched on it will pump until it has
reached the maximum pressure setting before
cutting out. This is a safety feature. However,
the pressure switch may burn out if the pump
is allowed to run intermittently. To avoid this
happening, make sure that the pump speed is
correctly set on the flow controller.
The pump must not be stored under pressure
as this will invalidate the warranty.
The reverse osmosis filter requires a backwash
periodically and we would recommend doing
this every time you do a regeneration pro-
cess on the softening resin filter. This can be
done using the purified water from the tank.
To do this, open the needle valve completely
(anti-clockwise). Disconnect the two quick
couplers from the Filter Five inlet and Filter
Three outlet respectively and join them using
the joiner supplied. Switch on the pump. Run
this mode for five minutes, and then reconnect
all hoses as before.
The last blue filter vessel contains deionising
resin. This filter polishes the water as it is
pumped from the tank to the pole. The
de-ionising resin cannot be regenerated and
needs replacing should your TDS reading rise
above 005ppm.
