Reverse Osmosis Process

The Reverse Osmosis process, also known as hyper filtration, is the finest filtration process known till date. The process ensures the reduction of particles as small as ions from a solution. Reverse Osmosis uses a semi- permeable Thambrane to reduce sais from potable/brackish water. In Reverse Osmosis. water pressure applied to the concantrated side forces the process of osmosis into reverse. Under enough pressure, treated water is squeezed” through the membrane from the concentrated side to the diluted side. Salts dissolved in water as charged ions are repealed by the RO membrane. The rected impurities on the concentrated side of the membrane are washed away in a stream of wastewater. and thus do not get accumulated as in a traditional filter.

UV Process

The UN fight has shorter wavelength (higher energy) than the visible light. It is called ultra-violet because it is just beyond the violet light in the light spectrum, Technically, the ultra-violet light is defined to be any wavelength of fight. which is shorter than 400 nanometers.
UN rays, which penetrate into tha micro-organisms, are absorbed by the DNA of the pathogen in the. water. The DNA is altered in such a way that the pathogen cannot reproduce, Thus, they are essentially Wlied and cannot cause infection. This process of DNA modification is called inactivation.

Note: The purified water stored in the tank is disinfected using Uv LED, which automatically switches on for 30 minutes in a two-hour cycle.

Auto-flushing System

The purpose of the Auto-flushing system is to help prevent scaling or fouling of the RO membrane by providing a rapid rinse which washes away imputities from the membrane’s surface and keeps the membrane clean, Il offers folowing benefits.

• Lowers rejected water outflow
• Improves “TDS* rejection rate i.e incraases RO membrane efficiency
• Extends ite of RO membrane

UV Fail Alarm

KENT ACE Fla Mineral ROTM Water Purifier has an in-built feature that sounds an audible alarm if the UV Lamp malfunctions, This feature is provided to ensure purity. This UV Fail Alarm will sound as follows: Single short beeps after every two seconds. The puriler will stop its purification process in such a circumstance.

Filter Change Alarm*

KENT ACE Pus Mineral ROTM Water Purifier has an in-built feature that sounds an audible alarm to indicate replacement time for filters. This alarm will be audible after 700 hrs of use since the last filter change (or since the time of installation). The Filter Change Alarm will sound as follows:

4 short beeps after every two seconds: for 30 seconds. The alarm will repeat after every 2 hours of use.
In case such an alarm’s audible, please call the service technician and request him to change the fitters of the purifier. However, if the filters are not changed within the next 60 hours of operation, the purifier will stop functioning to ensure purity and hygiene. The following alarm will be audible after 60 Hs. A continuous beep for an infinite time.

In casa, such an alarm is audible, kindly switch off the purifier and call the service technician to replace the filters. In such a circumstance, the purifier wi not function unless the filters are changed.

Computer Controlled Operation*

To ensure delivery of purer and healthier water, a micro-processor is installed in the pusilier that performs. the following functions:

UV Stabilization Delay: To ensure that the UV lamp is pre-heated and is working at its optimum level before it starts disinfecting water, the controller provides a two seconds delay to UV lamp when the Dunia is switched on. During this period, only the UV lamp is switched on and other electical davicas of the purifier are swatched off.

Purification Delay: To ensure that the idle water tying in the internal pipes and in the UV chamber is disinfected before being passed into the storage tank, the system provides 5-second delay when the Purifier is switched on, During this time, the UV lamp kills all micro-organisms that may be in the water inside UV chamber. After this delay, all other electrical devices such as booster pump and solenoid valve are switched on to start normal purification process.

Audible Alarm: The controller also controls the timing of UV Fail Alarm and the Fater Change Alarm.

*Tested & certified by TUV-SUD South Asia (P) LTD.

Automatic Operation

• The purifier automatically shuts off when the storage tanks are full

TDS Adjustment’

A unique feature in KENT ACE Pius Mineral ROTM Water Purifier is the TDS control valve, which is not available in any other domestic water purifier to date. This feature allows the user to control the content of natural minerals (TDS) in purified water.

To increase the TDS level, the user can tum the screw of the valve anticlockwise: it will result in more mineral content in teated water. To reduce the TDS level, user can tum the screw valve clockwise, it will result in less mineral content in treated water. We recommend the TDS of the purifier to be kept at lowest but not below 50 mg/l.

Starting-up the Purifier

• Switch on the power supply
• Wart till the storage tank fully fills up
• Switch off the power supply
• Drain the storage tank by opening the drain plug present at the bottom of that storage tank so as to remove any dust particles presant in the pipes and storage tank
• Close the dram plug & switch on the power supply
• The purifier is ready to use

Maintenance

To ensure that the purifier operates at its optimum level, a routine maintenance must be Wormed The frequency of the maintenance will greatly depend upon the raw water quality and consumption at treated water.

• Storer tank must be drained once in 2 weeks. To do so, switch off the power supply, open the drain plug at the bottom of the tank 8 allow the water to drain. Then screw back the plug and switch on the power supply
• Replace sediment, activated carbon & post carbon when the filter change alarm Is audible OR atter every 12 months. It is recommended to change the FRT when the filters are replaced
• Replace the RO membrane once in a year
• If you are not going to use the purifier for a long time (in case you are on a holiday. four or out of home). make sure that you disconnect the per supply, turn off the raw water supply ard drat) the storage tank

The reverse osmosis system contains a replaceable treatment component critical for the effective reduction of total dissolved solids and that product water shall be tested periodically to verify that the system is performing properly.
