Instructions for Water Purified System

Chapter 1 Brief Introduction and Applicable Range

1.1This manual mainly deals with the operation request, procedure,

malfunction settlement and safe production.

1.2 Applicable range: machinery filter, active carbon filter and

technical operation of demineralizer.

Function of active filter: eliminating peculiar smell, chloride,

carcinogen, organic matters; reducing chroma, optimize taste and so on.

water from precipitating on the anti-penetration film surface and improve

the efficiency and service life of the film.

3.2.1.3 Open water-in valve, close exhaust valve when the water comes

out from the exhaust valve.

3.2.2.2 Close water-out valve

3.2.3 Reverse washing operation

3.2.3.1 Open drainage valve

3.2.3.2 Open washing valve (the first washing after changing carbon

needs to open the exhaust valve, fill the container full and close the exhaust

valve after the water comes out from the exhaust pipe)

3.2.3.3 Start washing pump

3.2.3.4 Adjust drainage vale, control washing intension to 5L/mS and

washing time at 15minutes.

3.2.3.5 Test turbid degree of the drained water, and close the washing

and drainage valves when the turbid degree of the drained water is equal or
5
Instructions for Water Purified System

close to that of the water-in.

and reverse washing to the carbon filter. If there is no obvious effect,

prepare well to change the active carbon.

3.2.5.3 If the pressure difference between the pre-filtrating and

after-filtrating is bigger than 10%, carry out forcibly the obverse and

6
Instructions for Water Purified System

pressure 0.4～0.6Mpa, filtrating speed ＜8m/h.

Chapter 4 Notes
4.1 Remove the silver sand, carbon power by reverse washing before

use.

4.2 Keep the filtration timing function and conform to the reverse

washing standard for in order to avoid bad situations of mud-ball shaping

and resistance increasing. The washing cycle shall be in accordance with

the head loss situation, generally, carry out mechanic filtration one time a

day, while active carbon filter one time a week.

4.3 If the water still comes out exceeding the regulated time, check the

equipment instead of speed up reverse washing to avoid parts damage.

4.4 Clean the equipment surface frequently using neutral detergent.

4.5 The running flow volume shall not exceed the designed maximum

volume, or it will do a bad effect on the water quality.

4.6 Check if all the valves are under good condition, if there is any

water leakage, adjust in time.

4.7 Change the active filtration materials regularly and keep the COD

elimination rate above 50%.

Chapter 6 Loading Filtration Materials

6.1 Mechanic Filter
First fill 1/2 water of the equipment volume, carry out reverse washing
of the 0.6 ～ 1.2 quartz sand separately for 3 times until the water is
clarified.
6.2 Active Carbon Filter
First fill 1/2 water of the equipment volume, load twice the active
filtration materials to about 1.5m of the barrel. Wash reversely every time
after 1/2 of the filtration materials have been loaded until there is no carbon
black color in the water-out.
Treat the active carbon using 5% HCL and 5% NaOH repeatedly for 2
or 3 times before loading, if the acid or alkaline washing is not available,

marinate in the clean water for 12～24 hours and load following the above
mentioned method.
