Storage of the Mobi® Midget trolley system trolley
Short term and long term storage is an important issue. The Mobi® Midget
trolley system must be protected from algae and bacteria growth in the
pressure vessels caused by
stagnant water. The reverse osmosis (RO) membranes and deionising (DI) resin
must not dry out wither.
Important:
The unit must be protected from freezing
- Remove the prefilter housing and pour out the excess water.
- Remove the DI resin cartridge housing and pour out the excess water.
- Remove the RO membrane caps and lay down the trolley unit for the excess water to drain from the membranes.
- Ensure you reinstall the top caps on RO pressure vessels. Do not allow them to dry out.
- Ensure you reinstall the prefilters and DI resin cartridge. Do not allow them to dry out.
- Long term storage: 4 weeks plus of no use
- Remove the prefilter housing and pour out the excess water.
- Remove the DI resin cartridge housing and pour out the excess water.
- Remove the RO membrane caps and lay down the trolley unit for the excess water to drain from the membranes.
- Remove all filters from the trolley system, wrap in individual plastic bags and seal.
- Replace all filter housings and membrane caps without any filters inside.
- It is important to store the trolley system where it cannot freeze.
- It is important for all filters to not be allowed to dry out when not in use.
Charging your Battery
- To operate the Mobi® Midget trolley system, there needs to be access to a water supply and mains electricity (unless using the FP-TR1200-02 model with 12V battery).
- The water enters the Mobi® Midget trolley system through the water inlet connection, and then passes through the carbon block pre-filter removing the largest particles in the water before the water enters the membrane.
- The reverse osmosis (RO) membrane filters remove up to 98% of the impurities in the water, before it reaches the de-ionising (DI) resin filter where the water is polished and reaches a 000ppm result.
- From the RO membrane filters, waste water is discharged through the waste water outlet. This water is not harmful to the environment or skin, however full of impurities therefore not suitable for cleaning.
Depending on the Mobi® Midget trolley system you have purchased, the booster pump is either powered by 230V mains electricity or the 12V battery.
- Plug charger into an electrical socket
- Insert the charger socket into the battery terminal
The battery charging cycle is approx. 5 hours to full charge. The run time of the battery is approx. 12hrs continual usage.
Important :
- Only use the Streamline® charger supplied with your Mobi® Midget trolley system. If misplaced, contact your dealer of manufacture immediately.
- The charger will never over heat. This has a safety function to prevent the battery from overcharging.
- You can operate the system and keep the battery on charge. Pay special attention to the mains electrical supply when operating with water.
Assembling the System
All main parts and safety devices are assembled by the manufacture. Some other
secondary parts may be supplied separately.
These parts must be assembled by the user following the assembly instructions.
If you have purchased a Mobi® Midget trolley system with a 12V battery, FP-
TR1200-02, please read ‘Chargng Your Battery’ before proceeding:
