3.2 Start-Up
1. Re-check the function and integrity of your pretreatment equipment.
Ensure that your water softener, activated carbon filters and iron filters
(where applicable) have been leak checked, backwashed, and thoroughly
rinsed for service, before starting up your RO unit.
2. Attach the feedwater pipe work to the inlet of the machine.
3. Check for leaks at all connection points.
4. Turn on the feedwater gradually and check for leaks in the inlet plumbing.
No flow should go through the machine while the power is off and the inlet
solenoid is in the closed position.
5. Attach tubing from permeate and concentrate outlet points, and run the
tubing to drain.
6. Be sure the power to the motor starter is de-energized.
7. Ensure that you made provisions for both voltages required to operate
your machine. The machine requires two power supplies, (1) the high
voltage for the motor operation, and (2) the control circuit power supply.
The factory provides the 115 VAC (or 220 VAC 50 Hz) power cord needed
for the control circuit. The motor electrical service must be field wired
directly into the motor starter on the machine. Bring your motor service to
terminals labeled “T” on the motor starter. Check the voltage label to
ensure that you have brought the correct voltage to the starter.
8. With the machine ON/OFF switch in the OFF position, plug in the factory
supplied 115 VAC (or 220 VAC 50 Hz) power cord.
9. Open your concentrate and recycle flow control valves two complete turns.
These valves are positioned on the flow control center of the machine.
This plumbing is located on the right rear section of the machine, near the
sepralator housings. The flow control center features a concentrate flow
control valve, a recycle flow control valve, and a pressure gauge sensor
point plumbed into the panel-mounted pressure gauge.
