INTRODUCTION
OUR MISSION
Durability, Reliability, Efficiency, Purity, and Conservation form the
foundation on which we design and build all of our products. Consistent and
superior quality sets us apart from other manufacturers and increases our
value to you – our customer. Whether you are a hydroponics hobbyist, serious
enthusiast, or large-scale gardener, GrowoniX is committed to bringing you the
best solution for water purification systems.
WHAT IS REVERSE OSMOSIS?
Reverse osmosis (RO) is a filtration method that removes many types of large
molecules and ions from solutions by applying pressure to the solution when it
is on one side of a selective membrane. This filtering process ensures that
the solute (waste water) is contained within the pressurized chamber while the
pure solvent (RO water) is allowed to pass freely through the membrane.
TUNED FOR GROWING – IN TUNE WITH OUR CUSTOMERS
Traditional RO systems have waste ratios of approximately 4:1, which means
there are 4 gallons of waste water produced for every 1 gallon of purified
water. GrowoniX line of water filters achieve waste ratios of 2:1 with all
200-400 GPD systems, and an astounding 1:1 ratio with the 600-1000 GPD
systems.
GrowoniX has created a complete product line that will address the needs of
hydroponic operations of all sizes.
Our filters will significantly reduce your water use while dramatically
increasing your yields.

THE GrowoniX WAY
FEATURES
- An essential add-on to any water filter.
- Shuts down feed water BEFORE the water filter.
- Controls on/off cycling of high pressure booster pumps.
- 120VAC piggyback cable.
- Solenoid valve with manual override for failsafe water-making.
WHY USE A GROWONIX ESOK?
An essential add-on to almost any water filter! Shuts down feed water before the water filter. Controls on/off cycling of high pressure booster pumps. The electric shutoff kit consists of a float switch and solenoid valve. Mount the float switch in your water tank or nutrient storage tank. Install the solenoid valve on the front end of your water filter. When the tank level decreases to the desired amount, the float switch opens the solenoid valve, the booster pump (if installed) powers on, and the water system begins refilling the storage tank.
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ESOK AND ESOK-HF?
An ESOK-1034-HF is the high-flow version of our standard ESOK kit. All this means is the solenoid valve itself is NOT piloted, and thus when it opens, the orifice is such that you can see right through the valve. This design lends toward less pressure drop, and an overall higher flow rate—for applications that need to maximize GPD throughput.

ESOK PLUMBING
DISCONECT PUMP AND ALL COMPONENTS FROM ELECTRICAL SUPPLY, AND TURN OFF FEED WATER SUPPLY BEFORE CONNECTING THE ESOK.
INSTALLING THE SOLENOID VALVE
-
Remove the garden hose fitting from the water filter input and attach the supplied SCH80 PVC as shown above.
-
Install the solenoid valve on the input of the EX/GX1000, making sure valve is installed in the correct
direction of flow. (see arrow stamped on valve housing and reference pg. 4). -
Make sure the override switch is in the “Normal Operation” position (see: page 4).
-
Turn on feed water supply and check for leaks in the solenoid valve water connections.
INSTALLING THE FLOAT BALL SWITCH
Normaly closed float switches are closed while hanging “down”, and will open on a rising liquid level—typically used for “tank filling” applications.
-
Determine the desired cord tether length . See Figure 2.
-
Attach the Pipe Clamp at the desired location. See Figure 1.
-
Adjust the tether length to achieve the desired pumping range. Use Figure 2 as a guide and test the system by filling tank and cycling the system to achieve the actual desired pumping range. Tighten the clamp.

WARNING :
Read instructions thoroughly. Check local codes and install to meet
requirements. Turn off all power when installing or adjusting unit.
Failure to turn off all power could result in serious injury or death! End
user to provide overcurrent protection rated at 120VAC minimum, 13 Amps
maximum.
ESOK WIRING WITH 6010 SERIES PUMP
ESOK ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
- Attach the float ball piggyback cord to the male plug end from the pump control box.(1) The float switch will now govern whether current will flow to the pump control box or not.
- Plug the solenoid valve into the female plug end extending from the pump control box (2)
- Float ball facing “UP” = current does not flow (pump off).
- Float ball facing “DOWN” = current flows (pump on).
- When pump control switch is “ON” and float ball is facing “DOWN” = current will flow to the solenoid valve and the valve will open.
- When pump control switch is “OFF” or the float ball is facing “UP” = no current will flow to the solenoid valve, and the pump will not run.
