2.If the diverter supplied with the unit will not attach directly to your faucet, install the adapter. When done, or if the adapter is not needed, connect the Sterilight unit diverter valve assembly to the faucet (Figure 10).

3.Plug the power supply into an available outlet.

The outlet MUST always have power available. Do not plug the unit into an outlet that can be switched on or off.

The unit is now ready for operation.

OPERATION

Figure 10 Attaching diverter to Faucet

Prior to drinking water from the unit, flush unit for five minutes.

To operate the unit, simply turn on the cold water faucet and pull the diverter valve plunger outward (Figure 11). To

bypass the unit, push the diverter valve inward.

You will observe the following when the Sterilight unit is operating properly:

1.Once flow is established, the UV lamp will turn on and become fully bright and steady within the first second of operation.

2.Water enters the unit at the bottom where it is mixed with ozone, forming a Sterilight of swirling bubbles and a swooshing sound.

Figure 11 Turn on the faucet by pulling the diverter valve flow control knob outward.

The unit will automatically come on.

3.Any ozone left following the patented

ozone/UV photo-oxidation process is reconverted to oxygen in the filter element. Water leaving the unit is fully treated and mixed with air and the reconverted ozone. The air will appear as tiny bubbles, sometimes giving the water an initial cloudy appearance. After sitting for a minute or so,

all of the bubbles will rise to the surface and disperse, leaving the water crystal clear.

4.Because of the trapped air, the water outlet from the unit will occasionally sputter, particularly at start-up.

Point-of-Use Drinking Water System specifications

The Sterilite Point-of-Use Drinking Water System is an advanced water purification solution designed to deliver safe and great-tasting drinking water directly from your tap. This innovative system utilizes a combination of cutting-edge technologies to ensure that your water is free from contaminants, while maintaining its natural minerals.

One of the standout features of the Sterilite system is its multi-stage filtration process. This system typically combines sediment filtration, activated carbon filtration, and a high-efficiency reverse osmosis membrane. The sediment filter removes larger particles such as dirt and rust, while the activated carbon filter effectively eliminates chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and other harmful chemicals that can impact taste and odor. The reverse osmosis membrane then provides a fine level of filtration, targeting dissolved solids, heavy metals, and numerous other impurities.

Additionally, the Sterilite Point-of-Use Drinking Water System incorporates a mineral adding stage post-filtration. This feature enriches the water with essential minerals that can enhance taste and nutritional value, ensuring that you not only consume clean water but also enjoy its natural flavor.

The system is designed for convenience and ease of use. It typically comes with a sleek, compact design that fits seamlessly into modern kitchens. Installation is straightforward, allowing users to connect the system to their existing plumbing without the need for professional help. The intuitive user interface often includes LED indicators that signal when filters need replacement, making maintenance a hassle-free experience.

Furthermore, the Sterilite system emphasizes sustainability. By providing high-quality water from a point-of-use source, it significantly reduces the dependence on single-use plastic water bottles, thus contributing to environmental conservation efforts.

In summary, the Sterilite Point-of-Use Drinking Water System stands out for its robust filtration technologies, ease of installation, and user-friendly features. Its commitment to delivering safe, mineral-enriched drinking water makes it a viable choice for households seeking to enhance their hydration solutions while prioritizing health and environmental sustainability. With this system, you can enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing your drinking water is purified, convenient, and environmentally responsible.
