The reverse osmosis filter is placed last in the chain of filters and ensures the final purification of water from the most elusive contaminants. Cartridge filter elements carry out the preliminary and final processing phases. For basic cleaning, a membrane with microscopic through holes is used. About the effectiveness of the membrane, it is enough to say that it allows water molecules to pass through, but retains bacteria and viruses, and, of course, larger contaminants. At the outlet of the osmotic filter you receive absolutely pure drinking water.

Depending on the model, there may be a different number of cartridge filter elements and membranes. The most common versions of reverse osmosis filters contain 3-4 cartridge elements and one membrane. In the model without storage tank there may be 2 or 3 membranes. Cartridge elements provide pre-treatment of water to protect the membrane from damage by solid particles and sediment.

The design of a reverse osmosis filter is quite simple and allows not only independent replacement cartridges and membranes, but also product installation. At correct connection and the reverse osmosis filter does not require operation frequent maintenance. However, over time, the effectiveness of any filter decreases and it becomes necessary to carry out work to clean it.

Membrane contamination is its downside high efficiency. Contaminant particles separated from water are retained on the surface of the membrane, clogging microscopic holes. For efficient work Water treatment systems require periodic cleaning or replacement of reverse osmosis filters.

To reduce the degree of membrane contamination, it is recommended to use preliminary water treatment filters. In the five-stage Atoll A-560 filter, there are three cartridge filter elements in front of the membrane, which sequentially remove from the water: solid particles with a size of 15-30 microns, organics and chlorine compounds, particles with a diameter of 1-5 microns. Pre-cleaning extends the service life of the membrane and increases its mechanical safety. Atoll filters are replaced by specialists from the unified service department of the BIICS company. The replacement kit includes a membrane and four cartridge elements. Filter cartridges are changed once every six months/year, the membrane - once every two years. A different schedule for replacing filter elements is possible.

To restore the filtering properties of the membrane, washing is used clean water under pressure, as well as acidic or alkaline reagents. The choice of reagent depends not only on the type of membrane, but also on the nature of the contamination. Acidic reagents are used to remove inorganic mineral deposits, alkaline reagents are used to remove organic contaminants and oils. Before carrying out cleaning procedures using acidic reagents, it is necessary to ensure that the filter parts and materials are resistant to the corrosive effects of an acidic environment.

With infrequent use of cleaning equipment, colonies of bacteria settled on the wet surface of the membrane actively develop and can impair its performance by blocking the holes. Disinfection of the reverse osmosis filter is carried out using alkaline reagents. The cleaning method uses circulation washing or holding the membrane in solution. In addition to microbiological contamination, the holes in the membrane can be clogged with ultrafine colloidal suspensions.

The installation, replacement and cleaning of the osmotic filter will be carried out quickly and efficiently by specialists from the unified service department of the BIICS company. To ensure long-term and efficient operation of your water treatment system, enter into a maintenance contract.

If you are using a cleaning system atoll, replacing cartridges must be done every six months. Are you confident in own strength? Can you do all the work yourself? Then listen to our recommendations!

Instructions for replacing cartridges.

The cleaning system works at full capacity only when it is handled correctly and the filter elements are changed in a timely manner. Otherwise, there can be no talk of any clean and healthy water. And remember that only original cartridges remove all dangerous impurities from water.

If you have already purchased Atoll filters, cartridge replacement is carried out according to the following scheme:

• We turn off the tap of the general water supply to the apartment, as well as on the system itself and the storage tank.
• Open the drinking tap so that all the liquid remaining in the system comes out.
• We take the filter out of the cabinet, and then use a special key to unscrew the flasks.
• We take out the old cartridges and rinse all containers well, then wipe them dry.
• We install new filters and tighten the flasks.
• We put the system in place and turn on the water to check for leaks.

Experts recommend opening the tap for 5 minutes after replacing the cartridges. drinking water. The liquid will completely fill all the flasks, and the filter elements will be able to begin their work - high-quality purification of water from all contaminants hazardous to health.

How often do you need to change cartridges?

If your house is atollfilter, replacement consumables must be timely. The manufacturer says that each cartridge has maximum term operation:

• prefilter – 3 months;
• filter elements containing granular activated carbon – 6 months;
• membrane cartridge – 2 years;
• post-filter – 12 months.

But not always Consumables last so long. After all, everything depends on the quality of the water itself that enters the filter system.

Replacing Atoll cartridges- a problem that can be solved independently. But if you do not have experience working with such devices, then it is better to entrust this matter to a professional from the service department. After all, if you make the slightest mistake, you can ruin not only the filter elements, but also the cleaning system itself.

VIDEO DESCRIPTION


Atoll filter connection diagram

Cleaning filters Atoll You can connect it yourself without involving a specialist.

By purchasing filters from this brand, you receive the following set:

• Water purification system with replaceable cartridges.
• Plastic key.
• Tap clean water and sets of parts for connection.
• Two plastic tubes 2 meters long.
• Water supply tap.
• Tee.
• Blue staples to prevent accidental disconnection (installation optional).
• A - white tube - connects to a clean water tap.
• B - red tube - connects to the pipeline.

Step 1 – connecting flexible tubes quick connectors.

Attention! Before cutting the tubing, make sure it is long enough to connect. No tools are required for installation; the main thing is that the tubes are cut straight, this will provide protection against leaks.

1. We cut the tube at a right angle.
2. Insert the tube into the connector until it stops. It must be recessed by 5-6 mm so that it fits tightly with the connector ring.
3. We install the blue bracket to prevent accidental disconnection.

To disconnect the tube, you need to remove the blue bracket, press the ring at the base, hold it in this position, and pull it onto the tube.

Step 2 – Drill holes for the clean water tap and connect it to the filter.

— The place under the tap should have a diameter of 13 mm, and it is important to take into account that the blue tube is long enough to connect the clean water tap to the filtration unit, and there is nothing below under the sink or countertop that prevents the installation of the tube to the clean water tap.

When installing a clean water tap, we rely on the following diagram:

A set of parts is supplied with the faucet, and the faucet may also have a quick-release connector. They will ensure reliable sealing of the connections.

Options for connecting the tube to a clean water tap:

The tap can also be mounted on a table surface.

Step 3 – Connect to the cold water line (the temperature should not be higher than 38C, otherwise the filter will fail).

When performing all pipe connection work, use clean rubber gloves to prevent bacteria from entering the system.

1. Close the cold water supply valve. Open the cold water tap on the mixer and relieve the pressure. If it continues to flow, close the main valve of the house or apartment.
2. The system is connected to the water supply through a water supply unit.

— We assemble the water supply unit by connecting the tee and the water supply tap according to the figure:

We screw the water supply valve into the tee using FUM tape. It is important not to damage the threads, so we use an adjustable wrench or wrench.

• Loosen the union nut and disconnect the mixer and flexible hose.
• If necessary, change the union nut gasket.
• We install the assembly into the gap in the flexible connection of the mixer:
• We connect the tube from the filter and the ball (or needle - depending on the configuration) water supply valve.

Step 4 – Flushing and Getting Started

1. The first cartridge is already installed by the manufacturer, the rest must be installed yourself. Unscrew the flask with a plastic wrench and remove protective film from the cartridge and install it in the flask. We twist the flask with our hands without a key.
2. Open the water supply tap.
3. Open the clean water tap.
4. We make sure there are no leaks.
5. After a few minutes, close the clean water tap.

The system is ready to use!

During the first week of use, check regularly for leaks. The milky color of the water is not a reason to worry, these are air bubbles that will disappear in the near future.

Instructions for replacing Atoll filters

The filter comes with a special key, which is necessary for further filter replacement. This must be done every six months.

1. For convenience, carefully remove the system from under the sink or countertop. To do this, we shut off the water directly to the filter and the storage tank or the general water supply in the apartment.
2. Next, take a set of Atoll filters with cartridges and remove them from the packaging.
3. Use a special key to unscrew the lower cartridge counterclockwise. Remove the contaminated cartridge and drain dirty water from the flask and wash it. Lubricate the sealing ring of the flask with special silicone, which is included in the kit.
4. We release the new cartridge from the cellophane packaging. Place it in the flask and screw it back on.
5. We return the system to its place.
6. Turn on the water supply and check for leaks.

How often to change replacement cartridges

• Porous polypropylene cartridge - every 2-3 months.
• Granular cartridge activated carbon– every 5-6 months.
• Porous polypropylene cartridge mechanical cleaning– every 5-6 months.
• Membrane - every 2-3 years.
• Post-filter – once a year.

Timing may be adjusted depending on water quality. Even if the filter is not used regularly, it is extremely important to observe the replacement period, since cartridges during periods of “downtime” become a favorable environment for the growth of bacteria.

Why is timely replacement necessary? The answer is simple - this allows you to extend the service life of the membrane, as well as ensure high quality cleaning for many years.
