Product Usage Instructions

Replacing Watts Membrane with Neo-Pure Membrane:

  1. Remove the plug from the elbow at the bottom of the new Neo-Pure NPQCM13-50 membrane.
  2. Remove the old RO membrane from the third head on the manifold.
  3. Disconnect the red drain line tube from the back of the manifold.
  4. Place the plug in the outlet where the red drain line was removed from.
  5. Connect the orange tube to the elbow at the bottom of the new membrane with the flow restrictor union on the other end.
  6. Cut off the end of the existing drain line to remove the old flow restrictor.
  7. Connect the drain line to the outlet side of the new flow restrictor.
  8. Check for leaks once the system is fully assembled.

Filling and Testing:

  1. After replacing all filters on the manifold, turn the water back on and allow the tank to fill.
  2. Empty the tank and check for any leaks before regular use.

Using Quick Connect / Push to Fit Fittings:

Installation:

  1. Cut tubing square, remove burrs and sharp edges, and ensure the\ outside diameter is free of scratches.
  2. Push the tube into the fitting all the way to the tube stop. (Measure 3/4 up a tube and make a line. Push tubing in so that the line is even or below the collet).
  3. Pull to check if it is secure and test the system for leaks before use.

Disconnection:

Ensure the system is off and depressurized, then push the collet square against the…

HOW TO RETRO FIT WATTS KWIK CHANGE FILTER SYSTEMS

The Neo-Pure RO-Pure membrane is a replacement for the Watts Kwik Change WQCM11-50 RO Membrane. This guide will show you how to effectively replace the Watts membrane with the Neo-Pure Branded NPQCM13-50 replacement membrane. The Neo-Pure has a slightly different design and the primary reason for the installation steps. Subsequent replacements will be quick and easy. The different design takes the drain line out of the canister to eliminate the chance of waste stream bypass happening inside the membrane housing and ruining the quality of the RO water. Additionally, the flow restrictor on most RO systems never gets replaced and will shorten the life of the membrane over time. As the flow restrictor does its job, microscopic debris rejected by the membrane will slowly accumulate and then each new membrane replacement lasts less and less time due to not having adequate flow rate to drain. Each new Neo-Pure membrane comes with a new flow restrictor so shortened membrane life is never a concern or potential from this issue. To install your first Neo-Pure membrane, it will require the drain line from the back of the Kwik Change RO to simply be re-routed to the flow restrictor union on the bottom of the Neo-Pure membrane.
