1. Introduction
1.1 Purpose of This ManualThe purpose of the Installation, Operation & Maintenance Manual isto give users a reference for Technical Specifications, ConnectionDiagrams, Installation Procedures, System Operation and SystemMaintenance of their BMB Technology Reverse Osmosis System.The essential information contained in this manual will allow theuser to make full use of the system. In the interest of brevity, anattempt has been made to include only that information which willbe used under normal operating circumstances. For specialsituations, it is recommended that the user contact their authorizeddealer or BMB Technology (www.bmbtechnology.com).
1.2 Purpose of This ProductReverse Osmosis is the most advanced technology of waterpurification in use today. The technique uses a nanotechnologyenabled semipermeable membrane which can reduce or removemost harmful impurities found in water including: microorganisms,nitrates, heavy metals, insecticides and much more (see Figure 1on page 2 for a comparison of different filtration technologies).Table 1 on page 3 lists a more detailed filtration performance ofspecific materials. These materials are only a partial list of thevirtually hundreds of thousands of molecules that Reverse Osmosiscan filter.
Osmosis is defined as the process of molecules passing through asemipermeable membrane, from a less-concentrated solution to amore-concentrated solution. An example of Osmosis is the roots ofplants drawing water from the soil. Reverse osmosis is simply theopposite of this process where molecules are forced through a semipermeable membrane to form a less-concentrated solution. Essentially, the Reverse Osmosis filter (RO membrane or ROelement) has nano sized pores that help remove microscopiccontaminants from the incoming water (more-concentrated solution)to produce better quality water (less-concentrated solution). Anillustration of this process can be found page 3, Figure 2.
There is a bit more to the Reverse Osmosis process as it pertains toReverse Osmosis systems, however, this will be explained in moredetail in the upcoming sections. This BMB Technology systemharnesses the power of Reverse Osmosis to purify the incoming

water. It was specifically designed to enhance the Reverse Osmosisprocess by using sensors, pumps, probes, minerals, software andother components. Depending on the model, this system will bemainly used in residential and commercial applications to reliablyproduce high quality water (for a list of models and theirapplications, please see sections 2.1 and 2.2 on page 14 and Table 6on page 15).
1.3 System FeaturesThis BMB Technology Reverse Osmosis system is one of the mosttechnologically advanced water filtration systems in the world. Itincorporates state of the art filters, easy Plug & Play components andQuick Change Filter Technology (QCFT) for low maintenance cost.
The system also comes equipped with a digital controller with SmartWater capabilities. It continuously analyzes the purified water anddisplays the results on screen. The system will know when water isconsumed and will automatically flush the reverse osmosis filtersafterwards to maintain water quality and extend filter lifetime. Thesystem works in the background to track water temperature, errorsand filter lifetime in order to give the highest up time possible whiledelivering the best water quality and user experience.
Some of the significant features of this product line are as follows:
• Elegant & compact design / LED light-up during operation• Standing bracket, no mounting required, easy installation• Locking quick change pre-filters for low maintenance cost• Nano zinc powder activated pre-filters for antibacterial performance• Mineral, Detox, Alkaline & Oxygen post-filter options• Normal (80 GPD) and High Capacity (600 GPD) configuration options• Direct flow (no tank required) option for maximum freshness• Smart capabilities optimizes system performance and water quality• Set and track filter lifetime to maximize cost savings• Instantaneous analysis of filtered water (TDS)• Automatic flush of membranes for water quality and max. filter lifetime• Quick Connect parts for easy service and maintenance • Dual manometers to track incoming and pump water pressure• Top and front cover for protection from the natural elements
1.4 FiltersThe most essential part of any Reverse Osmosis system is its filters.It is also a misconception that all filters remove materials from theincoming water, some filters actually add materials into water toimprove the taste, increase the mineral content and other healthbenefits. Although a Reverse Osmosis system can consist of manyfilters, they all fall into one of three categories with each categoryhaving a very specific purpose:
• Pre-Filters• Reverse Osmosis Membrane• Post-Filters
Depending on the configuration, this BMB Technology system willhave between five to nine filters. To identify how many filters thesystem comes with, please see section 2.2 on page 14. The followingsections describe the purpose of each filter category.
1.5 Pre-FiltrationThe main purpose of the pre-filters is to protect the more expensiveReverse Osmosis membrane filter from specific contaminants.Traditional Reverse Osmosis systems have pre-filters which targetsediment and chlorine as they can damage the reverse osmosisfilter and cause it to fail eary. Additionally, traditional systems have asignificant health risk where although the filters are changedperiodically, the outside casing (housing) for these filters stay thesame usually throughout the lifetime of the system. This can result inunhygienic conditions as contaminants will accumulate on the insidesurface of the housing over time and can be gradually released intothe incoming water. This BMB Technology Reverse Osmosis System has three state-of-the-art pre-filters. The filter element and housing are asingle unit. Consequently, during filter replacement periods they arechanged at the same time in order to maintain system hygiene. Also,all of the pre filters are easy to change and have a click-and-lockmechanism in order to reduce the risk of leaks. Once the filter isbeing changed, simply keep twisting it into place slowly until a click isheard. To remove the filter, turn and hold the lock to open positionwith one hand while twisting the filter with the other hand until it isremoved from the system.
Although the RO membrane filters used in this system are fully
( 5 ) smart water technology ...www.bmbtechnology.com
( 6 ) smart water technology ...www.bmbtechnology.com
efficient in removing microorganisms, the first and last pre-filters areequipped with Nano Zinc powder for antibacterial effects. Thisprevents biofilm buildup on the membrane sheet surface which canlead to fouling of the membrane filter. In addition to particles andchlorine, the pre-filters in this system are designed to reduce heavymetals (iron, manganese and other rust), dust and very fine particlesdown to 0.5 microns. This will allow the membrane filters to workwith less effort to produce high quality water. Please see Table 2below for a detailed list of the pre-filters.
1.6 Reverse Osmosis MembraneAt the heart of every Reverse Osmosis system is the membranefilter(s). The membrane filter consists of microporous, semipermeable membrane sheets. The sheets are glued to eachother around three edges with a thin spacer in between (preventsthe sheets from sticking to each other) to form a “leaf”. Next,depending on the desired capacity of the membrane filter, multipleleafs with mesh spacers in between (to allow the water to passbetween leafs) are stacked on top of each other. The stack is thenspirally wound with the open end of the leafs adhered to aperforated tube that runs up and down the center. The membrane is constructed in this manner because unlike thepre-filters which are designed as “dead-end filtration”, ReverseOsmosis membranes are designed as “crossflow filtration”. Indead-end filtration, the feed water is passed perpendicular to the filter surface in order to trap large particles. However, in Crossflowfiltration the feed water is passed tangential to the filter surface sothe more-concentrated solution (particles) exits at the end of thefilter while the less-concentrated solution (purified water) permeatesthrough the membrane surface, gets trapped between the sheetsand exits out of the perforated tube. Figure 3 on the next page showsthe difference between dead-end filtration and crossflow filtration.

Dead-End Flow Design Crossflow Design
The membrane pores are so small that if the Reverse Osmosis filterwas designed as dead-end, the pores would be clogged up in amatter of few liters due to the abundant amount of dissolved solidsfound in the feed water and the extremely small membrane poresize. Figure 4 on the next page compares the relative membranefilter pore size to smallest known microorganisms.
The membrane filter has one water inlet and two exits. The feed water first travels through the pre-filters and then to the membranefilter. At the exit of the membrane filter one of the ports is the wastewater (more-concentrated solution) which is connected to the drain,while the other port is the purified water (less-concentrated solution)which is plumbed to the post-filters. Figure 5 on page 9 shows adetailed schematic of the membrane filter.
BMB Technology Reverse Osmosis membranes are made of thehighest quality Thin Film Composite (TFC) polyamide and aredesigned to remove a wide variety of both aesthetic and healthrelated contaminants. Additionally, the following have been,considered when designing the membrane filter:
• Average membrane pore size of 0.0005 µm• Ultra Low Pressure (ULP) membrane (min. 2 bar feed water pressure)• Included system pump for optimum osmotic pressure

1.7 Post-FiltrationContrary to including the word “filters” in their name, the post-filtersdo not actually remove or “filter” anything from the water (with theexception of coconut shell carbon based final polishing filters). Theirpurpose is actually the opposite, to add health and aesthetic benefitsto the purified water. More specifically for tank based systems a finalpolishing step is needed in order to remove any remaining odors orflavors that may come from the system hoses or the holding tank.Also, for residential systems additional minerals can be added to thepurified water to increase the health benefits.
Depending on the configuration, this system will use one or acombination of a possible 6 BMB Technology post-filters. Please seethe Table 3 on the next page for which post filters the system comeswith.
In general, mineral filters are not needed for commercial systems(higher capacity) for three reasons:
• The activated granular coconut shell carbon post-filter that they come with will actually mineralize the purified water to an acceptable level in addition to final polishing.
• For non-drinking water applications, a high mineral content can be detrimental to the process.
• Office/Work environment drinking water applications might need to be optimized for cost-benefit, therefore, increasing the water quality to above acceptable levels by increasing the number of post-filters will also increase the system and maintenance cost.
For the reasons mentioned above, the BMB Technology commercialsystems (BMB-60 Kyra 300 GPD and BMB-60 Kyra 600 GPD) onlyincorporate a single post-filter. The post-filter used in these systemsis made from activated granular coconut shell carbon which will actas a final polisher in addition to mineralizing the purified water toacceptable levels.
Upon inspection of Table 3 on the next page, it can be noticed thatBMB Nova and BMB Nova Pro models do not have a dedicatedpolishing filter (activated granular coconut shell carbon filter).This is because the Oxygen filter is in part made from activatedgranular coconut shell carbon which will also take on the polishingduties.

Mineral Filter (Anti-Aging): The mineral filter is composed of 100%natural Maifan and Bentonite minerals. Maifan is an importantmineral for healthy body, skin and hair. Bentonite minerals help thedigestive track work more efficiently. Additionally, Calcium mineralsincorporated into the Bentonite will help with healthy bone andteeth.
Detox Filter (Anti-Toxin): The detox filter is composed of activeceramic taormine balls which form a 2 micrometer wavelengthelectro-magnetic field (far infrared-red ray - FIR) along the waterpassageway. Water molecules also have a natural oscillationfrequency of 2 micrometers. As the water passes through the filter,the FIR field will help in breaking up the water molecules (which areusually clumped together) into smaller pieces. This will help inmaintaining a healthy body metabolism rate.
Oxygen Filter (Anti-Oxidant): The oxygen filter is composed frommagnesium coated ceramic balls and activated granular coconutshell carbon. The magnesium mineral will increase the water pH leveland decrease the water Oxygen Reduction Potential (ORP). Thehigher pH will allow for a healthy lifestyle, the lower ORP will turn thewater into an anti-oxidant and the coconut shell will polish the waterand give it a soft taste.
Alkaline Filter (High pH): The alkaline filter uses 100% naturallyoccurring minerals like magnesium, sodium and potassium toincrease the water pH to an alkaline level. The minerals will mix intothe water as healthy cations and anions. The specially selectedminerals can increase the water pH levels to 7.3 – 8.0 depending onfeed water conditions. Drinking alkaline water has numerous benefitsincluding a healthy lifestyle and immunity from certain diseases.

2.4 Supply Water RequirementsThe supply water requirements for this system can be found inTable 7 below. If the water supply does not meet these requirements,the filter lifetime and output water quality of the system can beaffected. Please see section 7.1 for the recommended filter lifetimeof this system. This duration should be reduced depending on howmuch the water quality exceeds the limits. Please also see section 7.2on how to adjust the filter change duration in the user interface.
If the feed water is supplied with raw well water, laboratory test ofthe water should be done before installing the system. If there is asignificant exceeding of these limits, a well water treatment systemat the source should be considered to correct the water quality.
2.5 System ComponentsIrregardless of the specific BMB Technology model owned, all of themodels covered in this manual have the exact same systemcomponents with the exception of the flow restrictor size. BMB-60Kyra 600 GPD and BMB Nova Pro flow restrictor size is 2000 cc,BMB-60 Kyra 300 GPD flow restrictor size is 1200 cc and the rest ofthe models have a flow restrictor size of 300 cc.
The main components for this system can be found in Figure 7 onthe next page. Additionally a list of these components along withtheir functions can be found in Table 8 on page 18.

Additionally, BMB-60 Kyra Seriesand BMB Nova Pro systems will ship with a 300 GPD Membranehousing wrench, while the other systems will ship with a 80 GPDmembrane housing wrench.
4.6 Making Space for The SystemThis BMB Technology system has a footprint of 40 x 29 cm, height of50 cm and weight of 21 Kg when full of water. Some models comewith a tank that has a footprint of 24 x 24 cm, height of 37 cm andweight of 8 Kg when full of water. It is important to make adequatespace for the system and tank under the counter. The platform thatthey rest upon should be adequate to support their weight.
The digital display should clearly be visible along with access to theLED On/Off button. Care should be placed that the tubings are notkinked and are not at a bend of more than 45 degrees. The tubingsshould not get in the way or be disturbed by other products thatreside under the counter and are used frequently.

5. Installation and Start-up
5.1 How to Use Quick Connect FittingsQuick connect fittings (push fittings) are used in a wide variety ofplumbing, heating, electrical and fire suppression systems. Quickconnect works by inserting the tubing into a connection mechanismthat deploys fastening teeth onto the tubing surface. When opposingforce is applied to the union, the teeth are forced deeper into thetubing, preventing separation of the union. The advantages of usingquick connect fittings are:
• They offer a significant time saving benefit over traditional connectors• They tend to have less user failures compared to traditional connectors• They require little skill or strength for their usage• They do not require any tools to use and maintain them
Please see Figure 18 below for an exploded diagram of a basic quickconnect fitting.
All BMB Technology systems take advantage of quick connectfittings. To make a connection, the tubing is simply pushed into thefitting. The unique locking system holds the tubing firmly in placewithout deforming it or restricting flow. Use the steps in Figure 19 onthe next page in reference to quick connect tubing connections forthis system.

Step 1: It is essential that the outside diameter of the tubing being inserted into the fitting is completely free of scratch marks, dirt andany other material. Inspect the outside of the tubing carefully.
Step 2: It is also very important that the sliced edge of the tubing iscut cleanly. If the tubing needs to be cut, use a sharp knife of scissors.Make sure to remove all burrs or sharp edges before inserting thetubing into the fitting.
Step 3: The fitting grips the tubing before it seals. Lightly push thetubing into the fitting until the grip is felt.
Step 4: Now push the tubing into the fitting harder until the tubestop is felt. The collet has stainless steel teeth which hold the tubingin position while the O-ring provides a permanent leak proof seal.
Step 5: Pull on the tubing away from the fitting and make sure it isstays firmly in place. It is good practice to test the connection withpressurized water before finishing installation.
Step 6: To disconnect the tubing from the fitting, ensure that thesystem is depressurized first. Push in the collect squarely againstthe face of the fitting. With the collet held in this position, the tubingcan be removed by pulling. The fitting and tubing can be reused.

5.3 Drain Saddle ConnectionThe purpose of the drain saddle is to prevent the tubing connectedto drain from popping out of place and potentially leaking where thesystem is installed. Please see Figure 21 below for instructions onhow to make the drain saddle connection.
1 Step 1: Select a location for the drain hole based on the design ofthe plumbing. The drain saddle should be installed above the u-bendif possible, on a vertical tail piece. Locate the drain saddle away fromthe garbage disposal to prevent potential contamination and systemfouling. Please see figure below for a more detailed explanation. Usea 7 mm (1/4”) drill bit to drill a small hole in the drain pipe for thedrain to pass through. Clean the debris from the plumbing and holdbefore continuing.
2 Step 2: Remove the backing from the foam gasket and stick that halfof the drain saddle on the drain pipe so that the holes line up (a smalldrill bit or other long narrow object cab be used to help aligncorrectly). Place the other half of the drain saddle on the oppositeside of the drain pipe. Clamp and loosely tighten the drain saddleusing the nuts and bolts included. Use a Phillips screwdriver totighten the drain saddle. Connect the tubing from the drain saddlequick connection to the “Drain” connection on the system.

5.4 Tank ConnectionBMB-60 Kyra Series and BMB Nova Pro models do not ship with atank. This is because BMB-60 Kyra Series needs a tank that isspecific for the application that it will be used in. Additionally, under normal conditions BMB Nova Pro model does not need a tank tooperate (for low feed water pressure and high capacity situations atank can be considered). Please see Figure 23 below for instructionson how to make the tank connection.
CAUTION: ONLY HAND TIGHTEN THE TANK VALVE, TOO MUCH PRESSURE WILL CAUSE IT TO CRACK

5.5 Faucet ConnectionBecause BMB-60 Kyra Series is mainly used for commercialapplications, it will generally be used to be plumbed directly intoequipment such as coffee machines, industrial tea pots, ice machines, etc. This is why the models in this series do not ship with a faucet. Ifa faucet is required for the installation, this can be purchasedseparately from your BMB Technology dealer. However, the othermodels covered in this installation manual do ship with a faucet. Please see Figure 24 below for instructions on how to make thefaucet connection.
First, a proper location to mountthe faucet needs to be selected,paying close attention to theplacement of the faucet stem under the counter. Next, use a 5 mm drill bit to open up a pilothole for the faucet stem. Finally, use a 12 mm drill bit to enlarge the hole to the proper diameter.

5.6 Membrane InstallationThe final step of hardware connection before the system can beturned on is to install the reverse osmosis membrane filter. Pleasesee Table 6 on Page 15 to see which reverse osmosis membranefilter(s) this system has shipped with. Please also see Figure 25 belowto locate the membrane housing, membrane housing cap and membrane housing inlet elbow for your system.

In order to install the reverse osmosis membrane filter, first removethe tubing from the membrane housing inlet elbow and pull the topof the membrane housing backwards. Now twist the membranehousing cap in counter-clockwise rotation to remove it and exposethe open end of the membrane housing. If the membrane housingcap is difficult to rotate off, use the membrane housing wrenchincluded to assist.
Install the reverse osmosis membrane filter by first removing it fromthe protective bag and inserting it double o-ring end first inside ofthe membrane housing. Make sure the membrane filter is firmly anddeep in the membrane housing before closing the cap hand tight.
Finally push the membrane housing back in place and connect themembrane housing inlet elbow tubing. Please see the pictures onthe following pages for a detailed illustration of the process.

5.7 System Start-Up and OperationOnce all of the connections are made from the previous sections,Make sure that the installed faucet is in the on position (faucet leverperpendicular to faucet body). This will allow for pressure to not buildup in the system during start-up and also we want to drain out the first few liters of production.
Now, simply plug in the system power cord into an electrical socketand click the on/off button. During system boot up process, thesystem will sound a series of beeps and the LED lights on top andfront of the system will activate. Make sure to open the feed watervalve slowly to the full open position.
After the beeps, the system will commence by first a “flush” processwhich can be observed from the on-board digital panel. In thisprocess the membrane sheets are washed by high flow water thatgoes directly to the drain line. This process will last for 90 secondsand the system will next enter the “pump” cycle which also can beobserved from the digital panel. In this process the system will startproducing water which can be seen running from the faucet.
The system should run with the faucet open for 8-10 minutes. Duringthis time the TDS value on the digital panel should be controlled. Make sure that it is inside of the 0 - 40 PPM range before turning offthe faucet.
Once the faucet is turned off, the system will remain in the “pump”cycle until it is fully pressurized. Once this is done, it will be followedby a short “flush” cycle of 5-10 seconds to make sure any residualsleft on the membrane sheet surface is flushed to drain. Next, the system will go into “Tank Full” mode where it is in stand-by waitingto produce water. The LED lights are automatically turned off in the“Tank Full” mode. Additionally the TDS reading is not active and willdisplay “000 PPM” on the screen (TDS is only measured activelyduring Flush and Pump cycles).
These cycles will repeat during and after each use of the system. It isimportant to note that the long flush cycle is only activated duringsystem first time boot or by manually pushing the “Flush” buttonon the front interface.
For a more detailed explanation of the digital controller functions,please see Figure 29 on Page 40.
( 44 ) smart water technology ...www.bmbtechnology.com
5.8 Verifying the InstallationWhile the system is waiting in stand-by in the “Tank Full” mode,inspect all of the water connections and make sure there are noleaks (the system should be given 10-20 minutes to make sure thepressure has stabilized enough). Do not forget to open the topcover of the system and look for leaks inside.
Again, while the system is in the “Tank Full” mode, read the “InletPressure” Manometer and make sure that it is above 2.5 bars. This isthe feed water pressure to the system and it will not operateefficiently under this pressure. Please see Figure 28 below to locatethe “Inlet Pressure” Manometer.
Now cycle the system into the “Pump” mode by opening the faucet.Confirm that the pump activates by looking at the “Pump Pressure”monometer directly to the left of the “Inlet Pressure” manometer.Next, make sure that the TDS reading activates and stabilizes below40 PPM. The water can also be tasted to confirm the system isproperly purifying the water (should taste delicious).

5.9 Digital InterfaceAll of the models covered in this Installation, Operation &Maintenance Manual come standard with the proprietary BMBTechnology digital controller. The digital controller enhances thesystem performance and user experience. It will display producedwater TDS & temperature, track filter lifetime, perform autoflushof membranes, monitor operation mode, protect system fromcommon failures and much more.
The digital controller has three buttons in the front for the user tointeract with: Menu, Login and Flush.
Menu Button :: Used to reset filter lifetime. The default filter lifetime that the system ships with is 12 months. Press and hold to reset filter lifetime.
Login Button :: Press once and release to display days left until the next filter change.
Flush Button :: Press once and release to flush the membranes and bring fresh water into the system.
When 30 days remain until end of filter lifetime, the controller willmake a sound alarm every 12 hours to remind the user to make preparations to change the filter. Once “0” days are achieved, it hasbeen a full 12 months since the filters were first used. Now, thecontroller will start to count the days in negative numbers for thefilter lifetime (-1, -2, -3.... -5 ...-10, etc.) to signify number of dayspast filter lifetime.
From 0 days to -30 days of filter lifetime the controller will make a sound alarm every 2 hours to remind the user to change the filters.From -31 days to -60 days of filter lifetime the controller will make asound alarm every 1 hour to remind the user to change the filters. On the 61st day, the controller will lock the system from producingwater and display “LoC” on the screen.
At any time the user can reset the filter lifetime to the original value of 12 months by pressing and holding the menu button.Please see Figure 29 on the next page for a full list of functions of thedigital controller.

6. Maintenance
6.1 Recommended Filter Change DurationsWater filter technology has come a long way over the last 20 years.Now, filters can run at higher filtration efficiencies with a longer filterlifetime. There is also a significant amount of added value and technology that can be incorporated into the filters.
BMB Technology takes advantage of water filtration technology toproduce the highest quality water at the lowest cost of ownership. The filter lifetimes are generally longer for BMB Technology systemswhen compared to other systems in the market. However, it shouldbe well noted that there are currently no water filtration systems inthe world that are designed to be run until all of the filters clog. Infact some filters fail by opening of the pores as opposed to clogging.
It can generally be stated that the filter lifetime starts once the filterstouch water. Even if the user goes on prolonged periods of not usingthe system (such as vacation) or the water consumption is low, thefilter lifetime does not stop or slow down. This is true because thefilters are made from organic compounds such as paper, coconutshell, minerals, etc. and they will degrade in water over time.
Additionally, changing of the filters is a “Preventive Maintenance” asopposed to a “Corrective Maintenance”. This means that filters arechanged in order to prevent future failures whereas correctivemeasures are done after a failure has taken place.
For the above reasons, BMB Technology system filters are given a lifetime of time as opposed to volume. It would be very difficult to count the volume of water produced over time. Furthermore, inorder to give a volume based filter lifetime, one would also need toknow the instantaneous incoming water quality (chlorine levels,sediment load, chemicals, etc.) in order to adjust the relative volumeof end of filter lifetime.
Please see Table 12 on the next page for a detailed list of filterlifetimes for all of the models covered in this manual.

6.2 Things to Do Before Filter ChangeOnce the time has come to change the filters, the system has to beprepped for the procedure. Since the system is continuously underpressure, failure to follow these directions can lead to water leakage.
1. Close the feed water valve that supplies the system2. Open the faucet until the system is fully de-pressurized3. System will give a “No Water” alarm, this is OK4. Turn off the system from the on / off button5. Unplug the system electrical connection
6.3 Changing the Pre-FiltersThe pre-filters have a locking mechanism on the top to make it easyfor filter change. In order to remove old filters from the system,simply bring the lock to the open position with one hand and twistthe pre filters in counter-clockwise fashion with the other hand untilthey are completely detached from the system.
When installing the new pre filters, insert the top of the filters intothe empty filter cap. The filter may need to rotate it a bit back andfourth until the thread locking is felt. Now rotate the pre-filter slowlyin clockwise fashion until the click of the lock is heard. Now the filteris successfully installed. Please see Figure 30 below and Figure 31 onthe next page.
Figure 30: Unlocking the Pre-Filter
( 50 ) smart water technology ...www.bmbtechnology.com
Figure 30: Removing the Pre-Filter
6.4 Changing the MembranesPlease see Figure 25 on Page 40 to locate the membrane housings.Next follow the procedure on page 41 and 42 to open the membranehousings. Use a pair of needle nose plyers to pull out the usedmembrane filters from the membrane housing. Grip the plastic tubethat runs up and down the center of the membrane filter with theplyers for best results. Squeeze the plyers tightly and pull up toremove the filter.
Now empty the residual water that is left in the membrane housingsby tightly pulling the housings back until the water drains out. Finally,install the new membrane filters by first removing it from theprotective bag and inserting it double o-ring end first inside ofthe membrane housing. Make sure the membrane filter is firmly anddeep in the membrane housing before closing the cap hand tight.
6.4 Changing the Post-FiltersThe post-filters on this system have quick connect tubing and fittingconnections. Simply separate the post-filter from the mounting clipsand remove the inlet and exit quick connect fitting elbows for thepost-filter being replaced. Now insert the elbows into the newpost-filter and attach the filter to the mounting clips. Do this for allpost-filters that need to be replaced.
( 51 ) smart water technology ...www.bmbtechnology.com
6.6 Verifying the Filter Change ProcedureOnce all of the necessary filters have been changed, the procedureshould be verified.
1. Plug the power cord into the electrical socket2. Turn on the system from the on / off button3. Open the feed water valve slowly to the full open position4. Now follow the procedures on Section 5.7 on Page 44 and Section 5.8 on Page 44 to start-up the system.
6.7 Checking the Air Pressure in the TankNot all of the systems covered in this manual come with a tank.Please see Table 6 on Page 15 to know if your system comes with atank.
For tank based systems it is a good idea to check the pressure in thetank when a decrease in available water from the RO system is felt.Air can be added with a bicycle pump or small compressor using theSchrader valve that is located on the lower side of the tank behindthe blue plastic cap.
1. Close the feed water valve that supplies the system2. Open the faucet until the tank is fully emptied3. System will give a “No Water” alarm, this is OK4. Turn off the system from the on / off button5. Unplug the system electrical connection6. Remove the tank valve so the tank inlet is open to atmosphere7. Use an air pressure gauge to measure the tank pressure8. The tank pressure should read between 5 - 7 PSI, use a pump to add air pressure if necessary 9. If the tank does not hold pressure, it should be replaced.10. Install the tank valve and follow the procedures on Section 5.7 on Page 44 and Section 5.8 on Page 44 to start-up the system.
6.8 Annual SanitizationBecause this system uses disposable filters in which the inside filterelement and the outside casing (housing) get changed every year,only the tank for tank based systems needs to be sanitized. The tankcan be sanitized with the BMB Technology sanitization kit or a simple Hydrogen Peroxide application procedure can be performed to thetank. Please see the steps on the next page to perform a simplehydrogen peroxide application procedure to the tank.
( 52 ) smart water technology ...www.bmbtechnology.com
1. Close the feed water valve that supplies the system2. Open the faucet until the tank is fully emptied3. System will give a “No Water” alarm, this is OK4. Turn off the system from the on / off button5. Unplug the system electrical connection6. Remove the tank valve so the tank inlet is open to atmosphere7. Use an eye dropper to drop few drops (teaspoon) of hydrogen peroxide into the open end of the tank. 8. Install the tank valve and follow the procedures on Section 5.7 on Page 44 and Section 5.8 on Page 44 to start-up the system.
6.9 Going on HolidayThis system has been designed so the user goes through minimaleffort to prep the system for extended non-use (going on holiday).Simply follow the steps below to prepare the system for extendednon-use and start-up after extended non-use.
1. Close the feed water valve that supplies the system2. Open the faucet until no more water comes from the faucet3. System will give a “No Water” alarm, this is OK4. Turn off the system from the on / off button5. Unplug the system electrical connection6. System is ready for extended non-use7. Upon return, follow the procedures on Section 5.7 on Page 44 and Section 5.8 on Page 44 to start-up the system.
6.10 Recycling Used FiltersWater filters are unique in that they have the sole purpose toremove contaminants from the water by accumulating them on thefilter surface. This is why the filters are not recyclable and precautionshould be taken when disposing of them.
6.11 TroubleshootingPlease find a troubleshooting matrix on Table 13 on the next page.
