The Cavitron water filter is not intended to be the primary water filtration for the office. It is meant to protect the
Cavitron system and components.
•
If your Cavitron water filter needs to be replaced on a highly frequent basis, you should consider an overall water
filtration system for your office to minimize damage to your dental equipment.
•
Please refer to the scheduled maintenance guide for your specific Cavitron system for complete maintenance
recommendations.
TO REPLACE YOUR CAVITRON WATER FILTER:
1. Verify that the system is turned OFF.
2. Locate the blue water line on the back of the unit.
3. Disconnect the water supply hose from the dental office water supply. If a quick disconnect connector is attached to the
end of the hose, relieve the water pressure by pressing the tip of the connector in an appropriate container and drain the
water.
4. Grasp the fittings on either side of the filter disk and twist counterclockwise. Remove the filter section from either side of
the water hose.
5. Install the replacement filter onto the water hose fittings. The filter should be positioned to match up with the correct hose
fitting.
6. Hand tighten one hose fitting onto filter in a clockwise direction. Tighten second hose onto filter in clockwise direction.
Reconnect the water supply line, operate unit to bleed the air and test for leaks.
