# Installation Instructions

Install the Filtration Unit

The filtration unit (A) should be mounted

as close as possible to the front of the

cupboard, to allow for ready and easy

access during filter changes.

1. Usually the side of the cupboard, near

the door, is most suitable.

2. Using the two screws provided,

screw the filter head to the inside of the

cupboard, allowing 260 mm miniumum

between the underside of the filtration

head and any obstructions like shelves,

etc.

3. Write the installation date on the

filter cartridge. Fit the cartridge into

the housing. The model you have

may appear slightly different to that

illustrated, however, operation and function is identical.

4. Align the tabs of the cartridge with the filter housing and insert it into the socket. Turn the cartridge a quarter turn to

the right until it stops and locks into position.

5. Check that the direction of flow on the filter head is correct.

Install the Filter Tap

1. Position the filter tap at the back of the sink where there is a 45 mm wide flat area within the draining areas of the

sink. The recommended position is over one corner of the bowl. Make sure the selected position allows the spout to

overhang the sink bowl.

The cutout size is 25 mm. Mark the centre of the new Filter Tap position on the sink with a centre punch.

Please read all installation requirements, installation procedures and precautions before installing any Zip FilterTap.

Never attempt to install any Zip FilterTap without reading all of the applicable instructions.

The outlet from any Zip Filter must be connected directly to an outlet spout on the sink and must not be obstructed by a

tap or valve or in any other way.

These appliances ares not intended for use by persons (Including Children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental

capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use

of the appliances by a person responsible for their safety.

Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliances

The units are for indoor use only and must not be exposed to the elements of nature.

These units must not be positioned in an area that may be cleaned by a water jet and must not be cleaned by a water jet.

All plumbing connections must be made in accordance with AS/NZS3500.

Before installing, ensure there is cold water supply with a minimum working pressure of 50 kPa and a maximum working

pressure of 600 kPa. (A 600 kPa limiting pressure valve is supplied)

2. Drill out the centre of the hole to allow the screw of a sheet metal punch to pass through the sink. Use a 25 mm sheet

metal punch to neatly open up the hole.

3. Remove the nut and washer from the base of the Filter Tap, and pass the tubing through the sink until the Filter Tap

sits upright within the hole you just created in the sink surround.

4. Orient the Filter Tap so that the activating lever is away from the sink bowl. Slide on the washer and nut from beneath

the sink, and tighten the nut to secure the Filter Tap firmly into place.

5. One blue tube hangs from the bottom of the Filter Tap. The blue tube connects to the outlet of the filter through a

push-fit John Guest fitting.

Take care, when bending plastic tubing, to prevent it from kinking or crushing on a bend. Please be careful to ensure the

colour and connection of the tubing on the Filter Tap are correct.

Do not connect the tubes in any other arrangement than that described here. The filter cartridge and the Filter Tap

have directional flow connections that will not work if connected incorrectly. Incorrect installation will void any product

warranty.

Note: the flow direction of the filter housing is indicated on the filter housing.

6. Measure and cut the blue tube to length so that it runs around the back of the cupboard to the (lower) outlet side of

the filter housing. Use a tube cutter to cut the end off the tubing neat and square, so that there are no dags or rough

edges. Shake the tube vertically to allow any debris to fall out of the tube before inserting it into the filter head.

John Guest fittings

Insertion and removal details for JG fittings using plastic tubing.

1. Cut the tube squarely with a sharp knife or tube cutter. Shake

out and remove any swarf or debris.

2. Push this end of the blue tube firmly into the John Guest socket

on the (lower) outlet side of the filter head. It must push in at least

10 mm.

3. Test the connection by trying to pull the tube out. If it comes out,

re-insert it so that it won’t come out when pulled against.

4. To remove the tube, press the collet into the fitting and at the

same time pull back on the tube.

Install the DNR (Double Non-Return) Multifunction valve

1. Fit the MFV to an isolation valve as shown in option A and option B (isolation valved not supplied in this kit).

2. Take the one metre white tube from filter kit.

3. Cut the tube to length where the DNR valve is to be installed.

4. Insert the white tube end into the (JG) fitting on the outlet side of the DNR valve.

5. Insert the other end of white tube into the (JG) fitting on the inlet side of the filter head.

Note: the directional arrows on the body of the valve.

Fill the system

1. Turn on the water supply. Check the connections for leaks. Repair any found.

# Installation Instructions ctd

Page 4 of 8 Zip Filter Tap - Installation & Operating Instructions - 82232 - January 2012 v1.01

The filter and

tubing are full of air until purged, and the filter cartridge requires activation when first installed.

2. Flip up the operating lever on the Filter Tap for a minimum of five minutes until all of the air has been purged from the

system, and the cartridge has time to become fully activated.

Every time the filter cartridge is replaced, repeat this procedure of a five minute flush to activate the new cartridge

properly.

NOTE: When flushing the system, some black particles may be released into the water. This is normal. The water will

become clear after the first few litres.

Filter Replacement

Not changing cartridges when required may cause the water to become biologically

unsafe.

Thoroughly flush the water through, if the filter tap has not been used for more

than 12 hours. For safe operation, the filter cartridge should be replaced at least

every 6-12 months, or earlier if you notice a persistent reduction in water pressure

from the Filter Tap, or an unpleasant taste or odour in the water.

Use only a Zip filter cartridge to match that of your Filter Tap. Replacement

cartridges can be obtained through plumbing suppliers or directly from Zip.

Replacing a Zip Filtration cartridge is as easy as 1-2-3.

1. Unplug the old cartridge

2. Plug in the new cartridge.

3. Purge the filter system by flipping the Filter Tap lever open (on) for a few

minutes until the water runs clear.

High sediment water areas.

Zip Filter Tap 59087 is a single filter system suitable for areas in which water supply sediment is not a problem. In areas

with heavy sediment contamination, add the Zip Pre-Filter model 51000 with an additional filter housing 50001, for extra

sediment removal.

Operating

You can obtain filtered water within the rated capacity for as long as you rotate the lever.

In the upright position the tap is off, when the lever is rotated anticlockwise water will

flow. Water will continue to flow until the lever is returned to the upright position.

Cleaning

Never use strong, corrosive or abrasive cleaning materials on the Zip Filter Tap. Wipe the

outer surfaces clean with a sponge or a soft cloth using a mild soap and water.

Operating Procedures

ROTATE

Service

There are no user serviceable parts but there are dangerous voltages present within the unit. All service work must only

be carried out by a suitably qualified and experienced service person.
