General Information

2.1 Function and Application
The BRITA PURITY 1200 Clean and PURITY 1200 Clean Extra Water Filter Systems optimise tap water for dishwashers for glasses, cutlery and crockery by means of partial or full demineralisation.
In the BRITA PURITY 1200 Clean calcium and magnesium ions are selectively removed from the drinking water via an ion exchanger using the flow method. This prevents residues on the dishes during drying due to carbonate hardness and scale deposits on important machine parts. This means that the dishwashers have a greatly increased service life.
Furthermore, BRITA PURITY 1200 Clean Extra guarantees elimination of all salts in the water by means of full demineralisation of the tap water, preventing them from being deposited on glasses and cutlery.
2.2 Guarantee Provisions
The PURITY 1200 Clean and PURITY 1200 Clean Extra filter systems are subject to the statutory guarantee of 2 years. A guarantee claim may be asserted only if all instructions in this Handbook are followed and observed.
2.3 Storage/Transport
Adhere to the ambient conditions in the Technical Data (Chapter10) for storage and transport.
The handbook should be seen as part of the product and kept for the whole service life of the filter system and passed on to subsequent owners.
2.4 Recycling/Disposal
By disposing of this product and its packaging in the correct manner you are helping to prevent potential negative impacts on people and the environment that could be caused by incorrect disposal. Comply with local regulations and bring the units to be disposed of to a proper recycling facility at the collection points provided.
Exhausted filters are taken back by BRITA at the addresses listed on the back of the cover.

Operating and Safety Information

3.1 Qualified Personnel
Installation, filter replacement and maintenance of the filter system may be carried out only by specialist staff.
3.2 Correct Use
The product can only be operated properly and safely if it is installed, used and serviced in the manner described in this Manual. Use only cartridges suitable for this appliance.

3.3 Liability Exclusion
Installation must be carried out in accordance withthe instructions in this Manual. BRITA shall not be held liable for any damage, including subsequent damage, arising from the incorrect installation or use of the product.
3.4 Specific Safety Information

• Only drinking water within the intake water temperature range listed in Chapter 10 may be used as intake water for the BRITA water filter system. No microbiologically impaired water or water of unknown microbiological quality may be used without appropriate sterilisation.
• For reasons of flavour, the filtered water is not suitable for the preparation of food and drinks.
• If there is an official requirement of boil tap water, decommission the filter system. When the requirement to boil water comes to an end, the filter cartridge must be replaced and the connections cleaned.
• BRITA recommends that the filter system shall not be decommissioned for a long period. If the BRITA filter system is not used for several days (2–3 days), we recommend that the PURITY Clean filter system be flushed with at least 24 litres. After stagnation periods of over 4 weeks, the filter should be flushed with at least 120 litres or else replaced. Please also note the maximum usage period of the filter cartridge is 12 months (Chapter 6).
• The filter system is not resistant to heavily concentrated cleaning agents (e.g. bleach, chlorinated solvents, heavy oxidants) and must not come into contact with them.
• The filter system must not be opened or dismantled during operation. The filter cartridge must not be opened.
• The pressure vessel and the pressure vessel lid of the filter systems have a service life of up to ten years (from the date of installation), provided that they are installed and used correctly and the operating conditions outlined in the Technical Data chapter are adhered to. They must always be replaced after a maximum of ten years. The hoses must be replaced in rotation after a maximum of five years.

3.5 Technical Safety Assembly Instructions

• The terminal device operated with the filter must be free of limescale prior to installation. Caution: No water softening system may be operated upstream from the filter system.
• Protect the filter system from sunlight and mechanical damage. Do not assemble near sources of heat and open flames.
• A stop valve must be installed before the filter system intake hose.
• If the water pressure is higher than 6 bar, a pressure reducer must be installed before the filter system.
• A non-return valve tested by the DVGW has been factory-installed at the water intake of the filter head.
• No copper pipes and no galvanised or nickel-plated pipes/connectors may be installed between the water filter and the consumer. The use of Brita hose sets is recommended here. When choosing the material for parts that come into contact with water after the BRITA filter system it must be remembered that, due to the process, decarbonised and/or fully demineralised water contains free carbon dioxide.
• All parts must be installed in accordance with the country-specific guidelines on the installation of drinking water facilities.

Installation

Caution: Prior to installation read the technical data (Chapter 10) and the operating and safety information (Chapter 3). After the product has been stored at temperatures below 0 °C, it must be stored (with the original packaging open) at the ambient temperature of the place of installation for at least 24 hours before use.
4.1 Scope of Delivery
Prior to installation, remove the entire delivery scope from the packaging and check that everything is there:
1x pressure vessel 1
1x pressure vessel lid 3
1x filter cartridge 2 , Note: Blue marking on PURITY 1200 Clean filter cartridge, Red marking on PURITY 1200 Clean Extra filter cartridge.
1x manual
1x carbonate hardness test or total hardness test
1x sticker for Service Pass, Note: Light blue sticker for PURITY 1200 Clean, red sticker for PURITY 1200 Clean Extra.
1x reducer 1″– 3/4″
1x flush valve with flush hose
If part(s) of the delivery scope are missing, please contact your local BRITA Office (see back of cover).
4.2 Assembly of the pressure vessel and the pressure vessel lid

• Stand on the kick loops 9 with both feet.
• Lift the pressure vessel 1 and turn it clockwise until the mantle handles 11 are over the kick loops 9 .
• Remove the transport protective cap 12 from the filter cartridge.
• Check the O-ring seal of the filter cartridge 2 for correct seat in the groove, dirt and damage. Note: The cartridge seat has been lubricated with food-safe lubricant at the factory.
• Stand on the kick loops 9 with both feet and place the pressure vessel lid 3 on the pressure lid 1 . The positioning of the arrow marking on the lid handle 14 must line up with the “INSERT” groove.
• Press the pressure vessel lid 3 down and turn clockwise until the lock engages 8 .

4.3 Assembly of inlet and outlet hoses
Note: The inlet and outlet hoses are not included in the standard scope of delivery. The use of BRITA hose sets is recommended (Chapter 11).

• Fit inlet hose 5 at the inlet of the connector head 4 and outlet hose 7 at the outlet of the connector head 4 .
  Note: Inlet “IN” and outlet “OUT” of the connector head 4 are equipped with O-rings as seals, therefore no additional flat seals may be used here. Make sure that the O-rings are seated correctly.

Caution: The max. tightening torque at the 1″ and 3/4″ connections must not exceed 15Nm! Only hose connections with flat seals may be used. Hoses with conical screw
connections damage the connections of the filter head and invalidate any guarantee claims! Before assembly, note the direction of flow on the upper side of the filter head, IN = water inlet, OUT = water outlet. Prior to installation, note installation dimensions and operating position (Chapter 10). If no original hoses are used, the 1″- 3/4″ 15 reducer supplied must be used to ensure correct sealing of the return valve.

Commissioning a New Filter

5.1 Setting the Bypass

• The bypass setting screw 13 has been set to 0% at the factory and, if necessary, can be increased to 10% according to the local water quality or application in question. If you have any questions about water quality, your supplier or your contact at BRITA will advise you.
  Note: Use Allen key 6mm or 7/32″ to adjust the bypass setting screw 13 .

5.2 Identifying the Filter Capacity

• Identify the local carbonate hardness or total hardness using the enclosed carbonate hardness or total hardness test kit.
• Identify the filter capacity using the capacity tables (Chapter 7) taking account of the carbonate or total hardness identified and the bypass setting (Chapter 5.1).

5.3 Flushing and Bleeding the Filter Cartridge
