PUROFILL
Chapter 1 – General / Safety instructions

1.1 General information

The PUROFILL water filter system is used to produce deionized water using ion exchange mixed bed
resin for technical applications, such as filling cooling circuits or heating systems in accordance with
common guidelines, such as the VDI 2035, SWKI and ÖNORM H 5195-1. Deionized water helps to
avoid damage caused by the formation of limescale and corrosion.
The functional parts are made from high quality plastic parts. The ion exchange cartridge is made of
pressure-resistant glass fiber material with an inner plastics tank, all rubber parts are made of age-
resistant elastomers. The materials used correspond to the recognized rules of technology. Metallic
components are made of stainless steel and chrome-plated brass.
The information in this user manual enables you to operate the device safely, properly and
economically. In particular, basic information on installation, operation and maintenance must be
observed.
Any person who works with this device must read these operating instructions in full and observe and
apply the listed instructions.
In addition to the operating instructions, the locally applicable regulations for accident prevention and
for safe and professional work must be observed.
The manufacturer of the water filter system also recommends to keep a written documentation on
site. The form at the end of this user manual can be used.
These operating instructions must always be available at the place of use.

1.2 Field of application

This water filter system is used to treat untreated tap water as filling water for heating systems in
accordance with VDI 2035, SWKI and ÖNORM H5195-1 or as filling water for cooling circuits in
building technology and for other technical applications wherever the water is not used for human
consumption.
The PUROFILL water treatment cartridge produces deionized water by ion-exchange using a high-
quality mixed bed resin. Depending on it origin, untreated tap water cannot be used as filling water for
technical water circuits in building technology, as salts and minerals in the water can cause damage.
Damage can be corrosion on metallic components, silting of fittings and pipelines or deterioration in
heat transfer due to formation of limescale.
The water treated with PUROFILL contains only the smallest amounts of dissolved salts and has an
electrical conductivity of <10 μS/cm and a total hardness of <0.01 °dH within the filter's capacity
limit. These quality attributes meet the essential requirements of the guidelines for the filling and
top-up water of modern heating systems with the purpose to prevent water side damage caused by
limescale and corrosion.
