OVerVIew

Overview

The UFL system operates in two modes:

• Normal Operation Mode

• Flush Mode

During Normal Operation Mode, water enters the Inlet and flows through the Ultra Filter before exiting the

Permeate Outlet as usable product water.

During Flush Mode, the Drain Valve opens and water entering the Inlet flushes and cleans the Ultra Filter membrane by removing any debris collecting on the membrane wall.

The Drain Valve is only powered during Flush Mode.

nOte: Do nOt unplug the power cord or turn off the system during flush mode. If there is a power outage or the system is unplugged, water will continue to be filtered but the system will nOt flush. this could cause the ultra filter to plug prematurely and may void the warranty.

The flush is automated by the controller to last 10 seconds and take place in one hour intervals. This interval can be changed (see Changing the interval

setting in the Maintenance section of this manual).

figure 2. ufl-420 system cautIOn changing the flush interval can cause the ultra filter to plug prematurely and may void the warranty. consult the factory for more information.

manual flushing

A manual flush can be activated at any time by pressing the flusH button.

When the flusH button is pressed, the Flush LED on the controller flashes and the Drain Valve opens for 10 seconds. After flushing is complete, the Drain Valve will close, the Flush LED will stop flashing and the unit will automatically return to Normal Operation Mode.

nOte: a manual flush will not affect the interval flush setting.

InstallatIOn

When placing the unit into service, pay attention to the following guidelines: plumbInG nOte: this unit is designed to use tap water not to exceed 100°f (38°c) or 100 psig (690 kpa).

The UFL-420 and UFL-440 systems use the following connections (Figure 1):

• Water Inlet

• Permeate (Product Water)

• Drain

1” NPT

1” NPT

3/4” NPT

When making a plumbing connection to the system, remember to use a back-up wrench on the supporting plumbing. Always use a good quality, approved pipe sealant or Teflon® tape on pipe threads. Be careful not to get the pipe sealant inside the pipe when making the connections.

• Do NOT immerse cord or plug in water.

• Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

suGGesteD tOOls anD supplIes fOr InstallatIOn

The following tools and supplies are suggested to make the installation easier:

• Screwdriver

• Drill with bits

• Tape measure

• Two gallon bucket

• Pipe wrenches electrIcal

• Adjustable wrenches

• level

• Pipe dope or Teflon®

tape

• Fresh 5 1/4% liquid chlorine

bleach (such as clorox®)

Do NOT over tighten the connections. It is recommended that plastic fittings be used when connecting to the plastic connections of the system. This will reduce the possibility of cracking the connections due to overtightening.

If soldered plumbing is used, do NOT apply heat to, or near, the filtration system. The use of union (O-ring seal) connections is highly recommended for ease of installation and future servicing.

ImpOrtant commonwealth of massachusetts plumbing code

248 cmr shall be adhered to. the use of saddle valves are not permitted, please consult your local plumber.

Ensure that the line voltage corresponds to the stated voltage on the units specification label. Make sure that the plug on the power cord from the system and the outlet match. For proper operation, and to ensure the highest quality water from the system, make sure that the system is not connected to a switched electrical outlet.

cautIOn this equipment is to be installed to comply with the basic plumbing code of the building Officials and code administrators, Inc. (bOca) and the food service sanitation manual of the food and

Drug administration (fDa).

cautIOn water pressure must not exceed 100 psig (690 kpa). to reduce water pressure, install a water pressure regulator and set water pressure to suit application. note that the trans membrane pressure must not exceed 45 psi (310 kpa).

UFL-420/440 water FiLtration system

flow regulator assembly

InstallatIOn (continued)

Inlet water plumbing

Your filtration system uses a water Flow Regulator

Assembly that controls the flow of water into the unit.

This assembly consists of a white threaded male connector and a color-coded Flow Regulator (Figure 3).

The unit must be operated with the appropriate Flow

Regulator Assembly.

The Inlet water plumbing line should be 1” NPT or larger. A shutoff valve (not supplied) should be installed in the line leading to the system. The valve should be mounted close to the system inlet and sized properly for the inlet plumbing line.

• UFl-420 Units: Use a Green and WHITE Flow

Regulator Assembly (5 gallons per minute).

• UFl-440 Units: Use a blacK and WHITE Flow

Regulator Assembly (10 gallons per minute).

An optional “T” or Cross Fitting with cap or plug can be installed between the Inlet Valve and the System Inlet.

This fitting can be used for draining and sanitizing the system and downstream plumbing.

The system should only be connected to the cold water line.

cautIOn flow regulator assemblies are nOt interchangeable. Operating the system with the wrong flow regulator or without a flow regulator can damage the system, cause personal injury, and will void the warranty!

Before connecting the fitting to the System Inlet, the plumbing to the system must be flushed clear of all debris. Hold a bucket at the inlet water line and slowly open the Inlet Water Valve. Allow the pipe to flush until all debris is removed.

mounting the system

The UFl system comes with a Mounting Bracket to mount the system securely. When mounting the system, pay attention to the following guidelines:
