REFILL plus
Chapter 1 - General / Safety instructions

1.1 General information

The water filter system REFILL plus is used for the deionization (demineralisation) of top-up or filling
water for heating systems according to the guidelines 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 of corrosion-resistant stainless steel, chrome-plated and tinned brass
fittings and high-quality plastic parts. Depending on the product version, the ion exchange cartridge
consists of pressure-resistant glass fiber material with a inner plastic tank or high-quality stainless
steel, all rubber parts are made of aging-resistant elastomers. The materials used correspond to the
recognized rules of technology.
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.
Every 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 natural tap water in accordance with guidelines such as the
VDI 2035, SWKI and ÖNORM H5195-1 so that it can be used as top-up or filling water for heating
systems. REFILL plus produces deionized water by ion-exchange using a high-quality ion-exchange
mixed bed resin as water filter material.
Depending on its quality, untreated tap water cannot be used as filling water for heating systems, as
dissolved salts can damage the heating system. Damage can be corrosion on metallic components,
silting of fittings and pipes or deterioration in heat transfer due to the formation of limescale.
The water treated with REFILL plus 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.
