Replacement instructions for the PURITY Quell ST

Before replacing the filter, please read the manual for the PURITY Quell ST filter system. There you will find detailed information on the operating and safety instructions, maintenance, troubleshooting and technical data.

Liability exclusion

The filter must be replaced exactly in accordance with the information in these replacement instructions. BRITA shall not be liable for any damage, including consequential damage, that may occur as a result of not observing these replacement instructions or carrying them out incorrectly.

Product-specific safety instructions

Note for people with kidney disease or dialysis patients: during the filter process there may be a slight increase in the potassium content. Should you suffer from kidney disease and/or must keep to a special potassium diet, we recommend that you consult your doctor first.

Replacing the filter cartridge

! Caution: Filter replacement and maintenance of the filter system may be carried out only by specialist staff.
! Caution: The PURITY replacement cartridge may only be used in combination with the pressure vessel that has been specifically designed for its size. See page 3.
Caution: During the exchange, carefully examine all dismantled parts! Faulty parts must be replaced and dirty parts cleaned. Before replacing parts read the operating and safety instructions (Manual Chapter 3). After storage and transportation at under 0 °C the product must be stored in its original packaging, open, for at least 24 hours before commissioning when it is to be operated under the ambient temperatures specified in the “Technical data” table.

Filter systems without a measuring and display unit
The filter cartridge must be replaced after 6–12 months, but no later than 12 months after commissioning, regardless of the level of exhaustion of the filter system. If the capacity of the filter cartridge has already been exhausted (Manual Chapter 7), it must be replaced earlier.

Filter systems with a measuring and display unit
The filter cartridge must be replaced no more than 12 months after commissioning regardless of the level of exhaustion of the filter system. If the capacity of the filter cartridge has already been exhausted (Manual Chapters 5 and 7) it must be replaced earlier. If the capacity of the cartridge is exceeded, this will appear in the display as negative and flashing. No more bars will be shown in the bar display. If the monthly limit for the cartridge is exceeded, the date will flash to indicate this.

Resetting the display unit

To operate the display unit it has to be removed from the connecting fittings. Slide the display housing up approx. 10 mm and remove the display unit by pulling it forward. The display unit is operated using a button on the back of the display unit.

• If this button is pressed (> 10 sec), the data set on initial installation will be applied again and the capacity, by-pass setting and input date will all be updated.

Note: This automatically sets the monthly limit to 12 months.
Note: If there is no entry after more than 30 seconds the display returns to operating mode without applying the changed parameters.
Insert the display unit from the front at a height of approx. 10 mm and slide down. The loops on the display part must be inserted into the grooves on the measuring head.

Removing the filter cartridge

• Switch off the unit’s power supply (remove plug).

• Close inlet valve 7 at inlet hose.

• Place the flushing hose in a bucket and remove pressure from the filter system by opening the flush valve. Catch the escaping water in a bucket.
  Note: Insert the free end of the flush hose in a bucket. If the discharged water is more than 0.5 litres, the inlet value is not completely closed or is blocked with scale.

  • Stand on the kick loops 12 with both feet while opening the pressure vessel lid 3 by pressing the lock 15 and turning it anticlockwise as far as it will go. The filter cartridge 2 is released by pressing on the mantle handle 16.

• Place the pressure vessel lid 3 vertically on both lid handles 20 .
  Note: Do not turn the lid horizontally on its head.

• Keep both feet on the kick loops 12 .

• Stand on the kick loops 12 with both feet while turning the pressure vessel 1 anticlockwise by the mantle handles 16 as far as it will go.

• Take your feet off the kick loops and push the pressure vessel down with both hands on the mantle handles 16 .

• Remove exhausted filter cartridge 2 from the pressure vessel 1 .

• Place the exhausted filter cartridge 2 in the sink with the connection facing down for drainage (> 5 min.).

• Lock the exhausted filter cartridge 2 with the transport protective cap 18 of the new filter cartridge and return in the original packaging to the appropriate BRITA address listed on the back of the cover.

Inserting the Filter Cartridge

• Check the connector seat of the filter cartridge O-ring 2 in the pressure vessel lid 1 for dirt and damage.

• Check that the O-ring seal of the filter cartridge 2 is correctly seated in the groove and also check for dirt and damage.
  Note: The cartridge seat has been lubricated with food-safe lubricant at the factory.

• Place the new filter cartridge 2 in the pressure vessel 1 .

• Stand on the kick loops 12 with both feet, lift the pressure vessel 1 turning it clockwise until the mantle handle 16 is over the kick loops 12 .

• Stand on the kick loops 12 with both feet and place the pressure vessel lid 3 on the pressure vessel 1 . The positioning of the arrow marking on the lid handle 20 must line up with the “INSERT” groove.

• Press the pressure vessel lid 3 down and turn clockwise until the lock 15 engages.

• Switch on power supply to the terminal device (plug).

Commissioning

Flushing/bleeding filter systems with and without measuring and display unit

Note: A bucket with a minimum capacity of 10 l is needed for flushing/bleeding.

• Position filter system horizontally.

• Completely open flush valve 9 .

• Open the inlet valve 7 on the inlet hose 6 completely holding the flush hose 21 in the bucket. Flush with at least 10 litres of water with a minimum volumetric flow of 3 l/min (180 l/h).

• Close flush valve 9 , put down filter and empty bucket.

• Carefully open flush valve 9 while holding the flush hose in the bucket. Flush quantity once again with at least 10 litres.
  Note: In systems with a measuring and display unit the end of the flushing process is shown on the display.

  • Close flush valve 9 .

• Write the next replacement date on the sticker supplied and affix this to the service pass on the pressure vessel 1 .

Note: Do not stick over the top sticker with the installation date.

Checking initialisation of filter systems with a measuring and display unit

• The carbonate hardness, bypass setting as a percentage, remaining capacity in litres and the current date must be shown on the display (Manual Chapter 5.5).

Note: If these values are not shown on the display the filter system must be flushed again (Manual Chapter 5.4), until the values appear on the display.
Note: Filter systems without measuring and display units are now ready for operation.

Filter capacity

The filter capacity tables for coffee and expresso machines and vending machines and for combi ovens and traditional ovens are listed on pages 5/6.

Note: The capacities specified in the bypass and capacity table for coffee and expresso machines and vending machines are guidelines only that may vary by ± 5 % depending on the product volume flow and also depending on the type of machine. With combi ovens and traditional ovens, depending on the type of machine, select the bypass setting 10 % for optimally prepared water for the combi oven/conventional oven. We will be happy to discuss your individual recommendations.

Note: The capacity limits refer to average use of the appliance, do not contain any filter flushing and cleaning cycles and depend on local water quality, flow, mains pressure and flow continuity.
