TROUBLESHOOTING
Common problems, causes and fixes
Resistivity below specification
Likely causes
- • Exhausted ion-exchange cartridge
- • Poor feed water quality
- • Faulty or dirty resistivity cell
What to do
- • Replace the polishing cartridge
- • Check pretreatment and RO performance
- • Verify the sensor and clean or replace it
TOC rising
Likely causes
- • UV lamp at end of life
- • New cartridge not rinsed
- • Contaminated reservoir
What to do
- • Replace the UV lamp
- • Rinse new cartridges as instructed
- • Sanitise the reservoir
Low flow at dispenser
Likely causes
- • Blocked point-of-use filter
- • Low reservoir level
- • Pump fault
What to do
- • Replace the final filter
- • Check RO production
- • Call service
Microbial counts out of limit
Likely causes
- • Infrequent sanitisation
- • Contaminated outlet or filter
- • Water standing in lines
What to do
- • Sanitise the system
