When installing a new filter candle it is important to condition the filter with the incoming water using the following procedure:
| Rated Service Flow for Optimum Performance| Filter Capacity
---|---|---
Super Sterasyl®| Gravity Flow| 533 USG/2000 L
Ultra Sterasyl®| Gravity Flow| 400 USG/1500 L
Sterasyl®| Gravity Flow| 2600 USG/10,000 L
Ultra Fluoride| Gravity Flow| 400 USG/1500 L
Gravity Filters
-
Place the sealing washer over the threaded mount
-
Place the filter candle mount stem through the hole in the upper section of the housing and secure it with a wing nut. Do not over tighten
-
Ensure that the outlet tap is in the off position
-
Fill the upper container with cold water and allow this to filter through. Our filter is made of a special ceramic and contains carbon granules; this means black particles may be visible when water filters through for the first time.
Discard the first filtered water. -
Repeat the process and run at least 1 liter of water to waste per fitted filter, and continue running until the water is clear. Wipe the lower chamber with a clean cloth to remove any dust particles – the filter is now ready for use
PLEASE NOTE
-
Super Sterasyl®, Ultra Sterasyl®, and Ultra Fluoride candles contain carbon granules and black particles may be seen in the water that first runs to waste
This is normal and will clear as the water runs -
If the filter is left to stand for more than 3 days without use, it is recommended that one liter of water be allowed to run to waste before using
Operation
Due to the filtration of particulate contaminants from the water during use, the flow of water from the filter may reduce over a period of time. To restore the water flow to its normal level, remove the filter and scrub the surface evenly with a clean abrasive kitchen pad under running water or in a bowl, ensuring that the open-ended plastic mount is clear of the water, to avoid contamination
