RO-MAN REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM INSTALLATION GUIDE PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE GUIDE PRIOR TO BEGINNING INSTALLATION. THIS WATER SYSTEM HAS BEEN DESIGNED FOR QUICK AND SIMPLE INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE. BY CAREFULLY READING THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL AND FOLLOWING THE OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES YOU WILL INSURE A SUCCESSFUL INSTALLATION AND RELIABLE OPERATION. ESSENTIAL TO THE LONGEVITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE SYSTEM.
RO-MAN REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM INSTALLATION GUIDE 3 STARTING YOUR INSTALLATION PREPARATION THE LOCATION FOR THE INSTALLATION OF THE SYSTEM. AVOID LOCATIONS WHERE THE SYSTEM MIGHT COME IN CONTACT WITH HOT WATER PIPES OR OTHER HAZARDS. DETERMINE DETERMINE THE LOCATION FOR THE OUTLET PIPE. DETERMINE THE LOCATION FOR THE INLET PIPE. SOURCE & DRAIN WATER SADDLE VALVE SHUT OFF THE WATER LOCATE THE WATER SHUT-OFF VALVE FOR THE COLD WATER FEED LINE OF YOUR MAINS SUPPLY.
RO-MAN REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM INSTALLATION GUIDE CONNECTING THE RED PIPE TO THE SADDLE VALVE IS NOT DIFFICULT, REMOVE THE NUT FOR THE VALVE AND PUT IT OVER THE PIPE, THEN PUSH THE SMALL COPPER RING OVER THE END OF THE PIPE AND PUSH THE INSERT INTO THE END OF THE PIPE. THEN PUSH THE END OF THE PIPE INTO THE VALVE ASSEMBLY AND TIGHTEN THE NUT (DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN). WHEN FITTING THE VALVE MAKE SURE THE SADDLE VALVE IS IN OPEN POSITION. WITH A SPANNER FIT THE SADDLE VALVE TO A 15/9 MM PIPE.
RO-MAN REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM INSTALLATION GUIDE 5 THE MEMBRANE HAS A PLASTIC CORE IN THE CENTER OF THE MEMBRANE MATERIAL. YOU WILL SEE THERE ARE TWO SMALL BLACK O-RINGS. HOLDING THE HOUSING INSERT THE MEMBRANE WITH THE TWO SMALL, BLACK O-RINGS FIRST, IT WILL STOP AT THE LARGE BLACK GASKET SEAL LOCATED ON THE OUTER EDGE OF THE MEMBRANE MATERIAL. PUSH THE MEMBRANE INTO THE HOUSING SOMETIMES IT’S A TIGHT FIT SO PUSH WITH ADEQUATE FORCE. YOU WILL FEEL IT “SEAT” INTO THE HOUSING.

RO-MAN REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM INSTALLATION GUIDE STARTING THE SYSTEM FOR THE FIRST TIME MAKE SURE ALL WATER SUPPLY / DRAIN LINES ARE SECURE AND FREE FROM LEAKAGE. BY SLOWLY TURNING THE SADDLE VALVE COUNTER CLOCKWISE UNTIL FULLY OPEN. CHECK SEAL FOR LEAKAGE. IF NECESSARY, TIGHTEN STEM NUT LIGHTLY. IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT USE THE FIRST 10 GALLONS OF WATER DISPENSE THIS WATER TO DRAIN. THIS PROCESS REMOVES THE FACTORY INSTALLED SANITIZING SOLUTION FROM THE ENTIRE SYSTEM AND SENDS IT TO THE DRAIN.
RO-MAN REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM INSTALLATION GUIDE TROUBLESHOOTING: IT'S OK TO CONTACT YOUR RETAILER OR SEND RO-MAN AN EMAIL. IT IS BEST TO TRY FIRST AND REMEMBER, WE CANNOT SEE IT FROM HERE.... DIGITAL PHOTOS ARE GREAT.... ALL PROBLEMS ARE FIXABLE AND IN GENERAL THEY WILL SHOW UP IN THE FIRST 24-48 HOURS AFTER THE SYSTEM IS FULLY CHARGED. 1) "I HAVE LEAKAGE FROM A PUSH-IN FITTING" SOLUTION: THE PUSH-INS NEVER LEAK (NEVER SAY NEVER???). TRY PUSHING THE LINE IN HARDER.
RO-MAN REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM INSTALLATION GUIDE RO-MAN OPTIONS / FITTED ACCESSORIES PRESSURE GAUGE THERE ARE TWO REASONS FOR FITTING A PRESSURE GAUGE 1. TO READ THE WATER PRESSURE IN ORDER TO CHECK WHETHER IT IS WITH IN SPECIFICATION a. SYSTEM PRESSURE IS VERY IMPORTANT TOO LITTLE PRESSURE WILL MAKE THE PRODUCTION RATE VERY SLOW, TOO MUCH PRESSURE WILL MAKE THE SEALS FAIL. b. LOW PRESSURE WILL MAKE THE TDS HIGHER I.E. A SYSTEM RUNNING AT 65 PSI MAY HAVE A TDS OF 5.

WE MEASURE HOW WELL RO SYSTEMS WORK WITH A “TOTAL DISSOLVED SOLIDS” (TDS) METER, WITHOUT ME
RO-MAN REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM INSTALLATION GUIDE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT TDS IN WATER: WHAT ARE TOTAL DISSOLVED SOLIDS? 1. "DISSOLVED SOLIDS" REFER TO ANY MINERALS, SALTS, METALS, CATIONS OR ANIONS DISSOLVED IN WATER. THIS INCLUDES ANYTHING PRESENT IN WATER OTHER THAN THE PURE WATER (H20) MOLECULE AND SUSPENDED SOLIDS. (SUSPENDED SOLIDS ARE ANY PARTICLES/SUBSTANCES THAT ARE NEITHER DISSOLVED NOR SETTLED IN THE WATER, SUCH AS WOOD PULP.) 2.

COLLOIDAL SILVER WATER TDS LEVELS MUST BE MONITORED TO PREVENT MAINTENANCE PROBLEMS. HIGH TDS LEVELS COULD IMPEDE THE FUNCTIONS OF CERTAIN APPLICATIONS. TDS LEVELS MUST BE CONTROLLED PRIOR TO MAKING COLLOIDAL SILVER.
RO-MAN REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM INSTALLATION GUIDE PERFORMANCE OF THE REVERSE OSMOSIS MEMBRANE ELEMENT IS AFFECTED BY TWO KEY FACTORS; TEMPERATURE OF THE FEED WATER AND THE NET DRIVING PRESSURE ACROSS THE ELEMENT. THESE TWO FACTORS MUST BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT BEFORE COMPARING OR EVALUATING THE PERFORMANCE OF A MEMBRANE ELEMENT OR A REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM. THE WATER TEMPERATURE IS ONE OF THE KEY FACTORS IN THE PE5RFORMANCE OF THE REVERSE OSMOSIS MEMBRANE ELEMENT.
RO-MAN REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM INSTALLATION GUIDE TO ESTIMATE THE EFFECT OF NET PRESSURE, FOLLOW THESE STEPS: CALCULATE THE NET PRESSURE AT WHICH THE MEMBRANE IS RATED (PR) PR = (RATE PRESSURE) - (OSMOTIC PRESSURE OF TEST SOLUTION) Nominal Rejection Characteristics of Thin Film Composite Reverse Osmosis Membranes Ion Calcium Sodium Magnesium Potassium Manganese Iron Aluminium Copper Nickel Cadmium Silver Zinc Mercury Hardness Ca&Mg Radioactivity Chloride Ion Bromide Phosphate Cyanide Sulphate Thiosulfat
