Replacement Procedures
A. SYSTEM REPLACEMENT
A system may require replacement for one of three possible
reasons. The need for a system to be replaced must
be recommended and conrmed by a qualied service
technician. Possible reasons for replacement include:
1. The system (during commissioning or annual
maintenance) fails the integrity test.
2. The TMP result during annual maintenance after the
membrane cleaning is too high (greater than 20 psi TMP)
indicating there is too much fouling of the membrane
and the household water ow rate is too low. The water
quality entering the system will greatly inuence how fast
the system will foul.
3. The system is damaged on delivery and is not suitable
for installation.
Replacement instructions for UFC 211 and UF 211 series:
1. Close the inlet and bypass valves.
2. Depressurize the system by turning on a tap until no
water ows out from the tap.
3. Drain the system by activating a manual ush sequence.
Refer to the instructions in the Setting the Controller
section for how to perform a manual ush sequence.
4. Turn o the tap and close the outlet valve.
5. Unplug the controller.
6. Disconnect the drain solenoid valve cable and the inlet
solenoid valve cable (if applicable) at the controller Refer
to Figure 14.

the drain line assemblies from the system. Removal of the
inlet pipe assembly may require disconnecting the inlet
line at multiple places.
8. Remove the inlet, drain, and air relief valve plugs from the
new system and insert those plugs into equivalent ports
of the old system.
WARNING: Some water may still
remain in the system. Plug the inlet, outlet, and drain
ports immediately once the pipe assemblies have been
removed.

10. Remove the internal prelter from the system. Set the
internal prelter aside in a clean area for reuse.
11. Unscrew the locking clip screw and remove the locking clip.
12. Unscrew the system casing from the backpulse tank
using a strap wrench.
13. If under warranty, the old system must be completely
sealed, packaged and returned to the factory within
24 hours to avoid internal damage and allow a cause
analysis to be completed.
