System Installation Instructions
-
Feed Water Supply
The 3/4″ CTS push to connect fitting for the feed water supply is connected to the solenoid on the inlet side of the pre-filter.
NOTE : Minimum line size for the feed line is 3/4″ with a minimum pressure of 45 PSI not to exceed 85 PSI.
To Connect-
Cut the pipe square, removing all burrs and sharp edges.
-
Insert pipe fully into fitting.
-
Turn locking cap quarter turn clockwise to locked position; an audible click will be heard; indicator marks will be aligned.
To Disconnect -
Depressurize the system.
-
Turn locking cap quarter turn counter-clockwise.
-
Depress collet against fitting and remove the pipe.
-
-
Permeate (Product Water) Connection
Locate the 1/2″ O.D. push to connect fitting connected to the check valve located on the outlet (top) side of the permeate water flow meter.
The permeate line should be connected to the storage tank by 1/2″ O.D. poly tubing or other suitable material. -
Concentrate (Waste Water) Connection
The 1/2″ O.D. push to connect fitting is connected to the outlet of the flowmeter labelled “Concentrate”.
Run the drain line in 1/2″ O.D. tubing to an open drain, ensuring that the drain is free and unobstructed.
Drain connection to be made in accordance to local plumbing codes.-
Secure connections are simple
cut the tube square and push past the o-ring to the tube stop -
Tube is secured in position
Disconnection is just as easy -
Push collet against body
Slide tube out of fitting
-
-
Auto-Flush Drain Connection (Deluxe Models Only)
The 1/2″ O.D. push to connect fitting for the auto-flush is on the outlet of the 1/2″ flush solenoid.
Run this drain to an open drain via a 1/2″ O.D. drain line.
This drain needs to be separate from the 1/2″ concentrate drain line. -
Tank Level Control
All CommPro-Series systems are prewired for a tank level control (not included).
Tank level control needs to be a normally closed switch (open connection in the tank full position shut the system down). 5′ of wiring is included with the system.
NOTE: Tank level control needs to only act as a dry contact.
-
Pretreatment Lockout
CommPro-Series systems are also wired for pretreatment lockout, allowing the system to be shut down while critical equipment installed ahead of it is backwashed/regenerated. 5′ of system wire is attached to the system controller and can be connected to either a micro switch or relay installed on the pretreatment equipment.
The lockout wire needs to be connected to the terminals on the micro switch or relay that provide an open contact in the service position and a closed contact while in backwash.
NOTE: Pretreatment lockout does NOT need to be installed. If it is not required simply leave the two leads unconnected. -
Electrical
CommPro-Series systems are wired for 110 VAC 60 HZ. A suitable 15 amp dedicated circuit needs to be provided. If required, have a licensed electrician install a suitable power outlet at the install location.
Membrane Loading Instructions
CommPro-Series systems are shipped without the membrane installed in the membrane pressure vessels. Membranes are left in their original packaging increasing the time frame the system can sit before installation.
NOTE: Membranes must be loaded correctly. The brine seal on the membrane needs to be on the same side of the membrane housing as the feed water connection. For ease of service, all membrane vessels on CommPro-Series are plumbed so that they are fed from the top allowing the membranes to also be loaded from the top.
Please refer to the loading procedure below for initial installation and future replacement of the membranes.
-
End Cap Removal
A) Basic Models with Stainless Membrane Housings (2600-B & 5200-B)
Remove the red locking clip from the push to connect fitting and remove tubing.
Remove the two bolts holding the upper band clamp together.
Gently pull up on the black plastic cap to remove it from the stainless housing.
B) Deluxe Models with Codeline Membrane Housings (2600-D & 5200-D)
Remove the red locking clip from the push to connect fitting and remove tubing.
Using your forefinger in the end of the tab of the retaining ring, lift it up and out of the groove in the shell.
Remove the ring from the groove in the shell by rotating your finger behind the ring as it continues to exit the groove.
Thread a 1/2″ threaded pipe nipple into the center port and carefully rock the head assembly to release the seal.
Once the seal is broken, pull straight outward to remove the head assembly from the vessel.
-
Membrane Installation
Carefully remove membrane from the packaging. Note which end of the membrane that the brine seal is installed on as the membrane will need to be installed so that this is at the top of the vessel.
With a smooth and constant motion, push the membrane into the housing. You will feel some resistance as the membrane product tube seals into the bottom end cap.
Install the end caps back into the housing and reconnect any fittings that had been disconnected.
NOTE: Should it be necessary to lubricate any of the seals or o-rings, a food grade silicon based product can be used. Never use petroleum based lubricants.
NOTE: Membranes must be flushed for at least 30 minutes prior to be being used. During this time all permeate must be discarded
System Startup
- Divert permeate water to the drain temporarily.
- Fully open the concentrate adjustment valve by turning it counter-clockwise.
- Fully close the concentrate recycle adjustment valve by turning it clockwise.
- Turn on the feed water supply to the system and connect the power. The TANK FULL light should be flashing green indicating that the system is power on and in STANDBY.
- Touch a finger to the power button (this is a capacitive switch that only requires contact) to take the unit out of standby.
- Adjust concentrate and recycle valves to the desired flows and operating pressure.
- Allow the system to run for 30 minutes and carefully inspect all connections for leaks.
- After 30 minutes, connect permeate to the storage tank and check the tank float by manually moving it to the high position.
Operation and Maintenance
-
Pre-Filter Pressure Gauges 0 – 100 PSI
The pre-filter in and pre-filter out gauges show the feed water pressure before and after the pre-filter when the system is running. If a pressure differential of 10-15 PSI is present it would indicate that the pre-filter requires changing.
These gauges are installed after the feed water solenoid and should show zero PSI when the system is shut down or in standby. -
Pump Pressure Gauge 0 – 300 PSI
The pump pressure gauge shows the discharge pressure of the multi stage pump. While the system is operating you can make adjustments to this by opening or closing the concentrate or recycle needle valves.
Changes in feed water pressure and membrane production may affect the pump pressure and require periodic adjustments.
NOTE: Maximum pump pressure for the CommPro-Series system is 150 PSI.
-
System Flow Meters
All ProComm-Series models are equipped with three flow meters: Concentrate (waste), Concentrate Recycle and Permeate (product). The concentrate flow meter includes an adjustable valve allowing the operator to control the flow of water to drain.
The concentrate recycle flow meter also includes an adjustable valve. This allows for a portion of the waste water to be reintroduced in to the raw water feed at the inlet of the multi-stage pump.
The Permeate flow meter shows how much product water is being produced. It is not adjustable but controlled by operating conditions (raw water quality, temperature, and system operating pressure).
-
RO System Controller
CommPro-Series systems include the CHIP system control. This operates all electrical components on the unit including:- Pump start delay
- Low pressure protection
- Tank level control
- Pretreatment lockout
- Auto flush (on deluxe models)
System status is displayed on the front panel by a series of LED lights.
The capacitive touch button toggles the unit between service and standby mode.
-
RO System Controller Electrical Connection
NOTE : The system must be disconnected from the 120v power before opening the control box. It may be necessary to consult a qualified electrician before attempting repair or service.

Usage
- Press the “POWER” button
- To display the TDS level of the feed (tap) water, press the IN button. To display the TDS level of the product (filtered) water, press the OUT button.
- The displayed TDS will be most accurate after approximately 10 seconds.
- Determining filter effectiveness depends on your particular system. For an RO system, for example, compare the IN water TDS levels with the OUT water TDS.
- If the “x10” icon appears, then the TDS level is above 999 ppm. Therefore, multiply the reading by 10. For example, if the display shows 143 ppm with the ‘x10’ icon, the actual TDS level is1430 ppm. (If the ‘x10’ icon does not appear, the reading on the display is the actual TDS level.)
- Turn off the unit. (It will automatically shut off after 3 minutes to conserve battery power).
Changing the Batteries
If the batteries are low, when the unit is turned on, you will see 6AE(bat) for three seconds.
- To replace the batteries, unscrew the four metal screws on the rear of the unit and remove the back panel.
