3. Safety information
For your own safety, please observe the above safety precautions!
Each system of the Puranity PU 15 series is a modern ultrapure through out water
system, exclusively designed for the purification of tap water of drinking water
quality.
Please do not start to install and operate your system until you have read through
the information given in these operating instructions.
Please note that the manufacturer is freed from all liability when the system is used
for other than the intended purpose and/or is improperly operated.
Lifting and carrying the ultrapure water system, e.g. to the installation location,
should be carried out by two people. To lift it, each takes hold of it under the base
plate at two corners.
The CE-mark is invalidated when constructional changes are made to the system
or foreign products are installed in it.
Protect the system from frost. The temperature at the installation area must be at
least + 2°C.
Observe all general rules and regulations that are valid at the installation location,
including the current accident prevention regulations.
The feedwater pressure must be min. 1 bar and max. 6 bar. An additional pressure
reducer must be installed should it be higher.
According to DIN EN 1717 (for German and Europe), water purification systems
must be equipped with a device that safeguards the tap water against
contamination.
A suitable electric socket must be made available for the system (refer to Technical
Specifications).
The installation area must have a drain floor or a gravity floor with at least
DN(nominal diameter) 50 pipe and which allows free run off. Should no such drain
be available, we recommend the installation of a water watcher (article no. 171-
1126), otherwise the manufacturer will not accept any liability for water damage.(
specifically for Europe)
When the system is to be wall-mounted, please previously check that the wall has a
sufficient load-bearing capacity (refer to Technical Specifications for the weight).
The ultrapure water system only be mounted on a concrete wall or a solid masonry.
The maximum operating temperature of the system is 40°C.

If neither a floor drain is not is available, then proceed as follows during longer
system standstills (e.g. long holidays):
Switch the system off (unplug the mains plug).
Shut off the supply of water to the ultrapure water system.
Do not re-start the system with the water supply still in the shut off condition, as the
pump would then suffer damage. The manufacturer will not accept any liability
should this occur. When restarting your system, please open the feedwater to the
ultrapure system and follow our sanitization instructions to put your system into
operation.
When installing the ultrapure water system, ensure that there is sufficient working
room around it for problem-free operation of it as well as for filter replacement,
checking connections etc.
The warranty is valid for a period of 2 years!
Never look directly at a switched-on UV-lamp, because UV light endangers
eyesight!
Never switch the UV-lamp on when is has been taken out of the metal cylinder!
