IV. Replacement Parts List

A list of common replacement parts is provided below. Contact your

Watts representative for replacement parts assistance.

V. Membrane Replacement

1. Turn off the system and close the feed water shutoff valve.
2. Unplug the unit.
3. Disconnect the tubing from the top of the membrane housing(s).
4. Loosen the clamps and remove the top end cap(s).
5. Remove the old membrane(s) by pulling them up and out of the

housings. You may need to grab the old by the membrane with

a pair of pliers.

6. Install the new membrane(s) in the housing(s) and replace the

end caps. The new membranes should be installed in the same

orientation as the old membranes.

Note: It is very important that the brine seal does not flip up or roll

when installing the membrane brine seal first. Use plenty of glycerin

lubricant and use a gentle twisting / rocking motion as you slide the

membrane in. If you are unable to install the membrane brine seal

first without rolling the seal then lay the unit over, remove the bottom

end cap, and install the membrane brine seal last.
7. Reconnect the tubing to the bottom of the membrane

housing(s).

8. Follow the start up procedure in section III-D.

Multiply the nominal product flow at 25°C by the temperature correction factor to

determine the flow at various other temperatures.

VI. Appendix

The following tables are intended as a guide to determining the flow

rates for the PWRO440 Series RO systems. All flows are in gallons

per minute (GPM) with 77°F feed water.
Nominal flows for systems operating at 50% recovery with a

feed water SDI < 1.

Nominal flows for systems operating at 50% recovery with a

feed water SDI < 3.

Nominal flows for systems operating at 50% recovery with a

feed water SDI < 5.
