Vertex RO/DI Shut off Solenoid failure

[Jason McK]

Anyone experience the Solenoid fail. It fails in the closed position so I can not produce water without taking it out of the loop and then I have to be careful because there is no auto shut off. Anyone know where I can find a replacment

Thanks

If it helps, I use a float shut-off in my drum
This works great with an inline check valve and an auto shut off valve

It's all mechanical

Had a few parts fail on them never this tho, I have a spare parts unit in the basement it's used but if u need u can have it just pay shipping.

thanks all,
I'll try and work with the Retail shop and if they can not help I might just invest in a new one. It is 4 years old likely time to replace the RO anyway

One more 'other' option

J&L Kent Marine shutoff valve kit

It comes with a mechanical solenoid

Don't use shutoff kits with the Vertex unit. You will screw around with the controller settings.

Just ask your retailer for a new solenoid.

Is it the high pressure (blockish looking one underneath the membrane canister) or the low pressure solenoid (round ones, should be two of them) that's not tripping?

it's a round one mounted behind the carbon filter. below the frame.

Thanks Albert I forgot about the controller. I've e-mailed the Retailer not that long ago.

Good to know
Mine is controller-less so had no idea
