Description The VWHDOWK52100 ™ is a customized Reverse Osmosis water filter that is capable of reducing up to 99% of most contaminants. This system is designed for use with hydroponic or horticultural applications. This system is built to give the maximum amount of flow from the membrane while sending less waste water to the drain, compared to similar RO filters. Please read the following setup and maintenance guide to get the maximum results from your filter.
Precautions: t Do not install the unit where the source/inlet pressure may be more than 80 psi or there are excessive water hammer/spike problems. If your inlet pressure is more than 80 psi, install a 3/8” pressure regulator (HL#10071 see pg. 12), available at your dealer or through Hydro-Logic. If you suspect you may have a problem with water hammer or pressure spikes, use the high limt pressure gauge (HL#19306 see pg. 13) to determine what your upper pressure reading is.

VWHDOWK52100 ™ Setup &RQQHFWLRQV Feed Line From Carbon Filter to Membrane Purified Water Line Waste Water Line (Black) Automatic Shut-off Valve Flow Restrictor ,QLWLDO 6HWXS Push in the 3/8" white inlet tubing into the 3/8” QC pressure gauge fitting. Connect the 1/4” blue purified water tubing to the outlet of the Automatic Shut-off valve. The system comes with a 3:1 waste water to purified water ratio.
VWHDOWK52100 ™ Setup (cont) Source/Inlet Line (White) Purified Water Line (Blue) Waste Water Line (Black) Upon intial start up of system, slowly turn the source water on until both the carbon and sediment filters have water in the housings. Next, open source water up all the way (do not exceed 80 psi). Flush the system for 30-45 minutes when the system is new and/or when you replace your membrane. This will flush out the food grade preservative in the membrane .
Push In/QuickConnect Fittings &RQQHFWLQJ 3XVK ,Q )LWWLQJV /LQN 7R ,QVWUXFWLRQ 9LGHR youtu.be/EhWXj6DWcH0 Push tubing firmly into the fitting, all the way to tube stop. The collet (gripper) has stainless steel teeth which hold the tube firmly in position while the 'O' Ring provides a permanent leak proof seal. Pull tubing to check for security. If some tube pulls out, then push all the way in again until it stops. It is good practice to test the system prior to leaving site and/or before use.
Filter Changes / Maintenance (cont.) Dirt can become embedded and cause slower flow rates. Use the included filter wrench to loosen the clear filter housing. Be careful not to overtighten when reinstalling. It is preferable to hand tighten filter housings after a filter change.
Filter Changes / Maintenance (cont.) 67(3 Firmly grip the membrane housing and twist the membrane cap counter clockwise using the provided filter wrench. 67(3 You can now remove the membrane with either a strong set of needle nose pliers or something similar. Hold onto the membrane housing body and pull straight out until you release the membrane. It may seem tight, but with even pressure it will come out.
Changing the RO Membrane (cont.) 67(3 Push the new membrane back into the housing with the end that has the two black o-rings going in first. Push firmly until it bottoms out and can’t go in further. Then thread the cap back on tightly and reconnect the white 1/4" tubing. 67(3 Flush the system for 30-45 minutes before using. ,PSRUWDQW ,QIRUPDWLRQ 3HUIRUPDQFH 3DUDPHWHUV Reverse Osmosis is the most efficient and cost-effective way to remove the majority of all contaminants from your water.
