Product specifications

Minimal work is required to keep your BEV system in peak operating condition. All that is required is

following a regular schedule of ﬂ ushing and replacing the ﬁ lter modules as recommended. Following

these simple steps will insure your unit consistently produces ultra-pure water meeting the Vincent

(BEV) standards for bio-compatibility.

Take care of your BEV system and it will provide many years of healthful drinking and cooking water for

your entire family.

Flushing

Flushing is the single most important maintenance function you will need to perform to keep your

system operating at peak efﬁ ciency. This simple operation only takes a few minutes, yet makes a great

difference in the quality of the water your unit produces, and extends the service life of the RO membrane.

a) Flushing the RO membrane can only be accomplished when the system is ﬁ lling (see pressure

gauge). Allow the storage tank to empty until you hear the water ﬂ owing then begin the ﬂ ushing

procedure.

b) Move the black handle on the ﬂ ush valve parallel to the RO pressure vessel. This will open the

ﬂ ush valve and allow water to rapidly ﬂ ow across the surface of the RO membrane, washing away

contaminants which, if allowed to accumulate, might clog the pores of the membrane.

c) Set a kitchen timer so you do not forget to return the ﬂ ush valve to the closed position.

Flushing the unit for 10 minutes every two weeks is ideal.

In the event you forget to ﬂ ush the system for an extended period of time, you can perform an exhaus-

tive ﬂ ush of the membrane by leaving the ﬂ ush valve open for 20 minutes.

If your unit has not been operational for several days (e.g. while you are on vacation), drain the storage

tank (use the water for watering plants, etc.) then ﬂ ush the membrane for 5-10 minutes as described

above.

FILTER REPLACEMENT

After 12 months of use, it is time to replace the sediment pre-ﬁ lter, the twin GAC carbon ﬁ lters, and the

4-stage Deionization module to insure your system continues to produce water within BEV parameters.

Replacement modules can be ordered directly from Pure Water Systems via our web site at

http://www.purewatersystems.com.

1) Remove the contents from beneath the kitchen sink where the ﬁ lter assembly is located.

2) Turn off the cold water supply line.

3) Drain ALL the water from the storage tank.

4) Close the valve on the top of the storage tank.

5) Open the Flush Valve

6) Place a towel beneath the pre-ﬁ lter/RO assembly—it will absorb the small amount of water that

will spill from the modules as they are changed out.

It is often helpful to have an empty 3-5 gallon bucket nearby.
