Connexion réseau d'eau non potable et réservoir ORISA®
Connecting to the non-potable water mains and a water tank allows the filtration process of the ORISA® water purifier to be automated, without the need for manual pumping, thanks to water pressure, whether natural (non-potable water mains, elevated water tank) or generated by a motorised pump. In addition to the ultrafiltration provided by the ORISA® water purifier, this accessory incorporates either a 20-micron sediment pre-filter or a 5-micron activated carbon pre-filter. This connection can be linked to a non-potable water supply, or a water collection and storage tank (water tower, cistern, tank). It is a solution particularly suited to rainwater, well or borehole water systems, remote dwellings, self-sufficient communal areas and off-grid sites, seeking to produce drinking water reliably and without electricity.
- Complementary to the ORISA® water purifier (not included)

Contents of the non-potable water network connection and tank
ORISA® base
The ORISA® base allows the water purifier to be positioned so that the connection to the mains water supply and the tank can be fitted.
ORISA® filter holder
The ORISA® filter holder is designed to accommodate a 20-micron sediment filter or a 5-micron activated carbon filter for filtering water. Its wall bracket allows it to be mounted on a wall.
Braided PVC water supply hoses
The braided PVC water inlet hose allows you to connect your ORISA® water purifier and your additional filter to a non-potable water supply or an elevated water tank (pressure rating: 16 bar). It complies with food safety standards to prevent any contamination or alteration of the smell or taste of the filtered water.
Funnel adapter with quarter-turn mechanism
The quarter-turn valves are fitted beneath the ORISA® water purifier, connecting it to the mains water supply and tanks.
The funnel-shaped adapter enables the system to be assembled.
Selecting the filter for water mains and tank connections
With the non-potable water supply and tank connection, you have the option of fitting an additional filter:
- a 20-micron sediment filter for very turbid water;
- a 5-micron activated carbon filter to improve the taste and smell of the water and reduce the chemical content.

High-performance filtration, made easy
-
Automated filtration
The ORISA® manual pumping system is a stand-alone system which can be a hindrance when used on a daily basis or for filtering large quantities of water. That is why our connection to non-potable water mains and a storage tank allows water to be filtered without the need for manual pumping. Once the system is installed, water can be drawn into the purifier and filtered using the water pressure from a non-potable water supply, by raising the level of the water source to be filtered, or by using a motorised pump.
-
Enhanced water purity
With the non-potable water mains connection and tanks, you benefit from the ultrafiltration performance of the ORISA® water purifier, supplemented by your choice of:
- a 20-micron sediment filter, for use with very turbid water containing high levels of suspended solids and impurities such as sand, silt, rust and other suspended particles and residues, down to 20 microns;
- a 5-micron activated carbon filter for water with a strong chlorine taste or odour, or to reduce the concentration of chemicals in the water.
In this way, you eliminate microbiological contamination, unpleasant odours and tastes, and reduce the chemical content of the water to be filtered.
-
Increased and automated filtered water flow
If you need to filter large volumes of water – for example, if you are not connected to the mains water supply or frequently reuse water stored in a large tank – the non-potable water mains and tank connection allows you to filter larger volumes of water thanks to its automated filtration system, without having to submerge the ORISA® purifier in the water.
-
Filtered water in the blink of an eye!
Turn on the tap and let ORISA® do the rest! No more pumping – the water pressure means you don’t have to.
Water filtration that adapts to different water storage systems
The ORISA® non-potable water supply connection and tank are compatible with various types of equipment (domestic non-potable water supply, rainwater harvesting system, storage tank, cistern).
To avoid having to pump water using your ORISA® purifier, there must be sufficient water pressure. This can be achieved by connecting to the mains water supply, raising the water source, or using a motorised pump.
Some connections require the addition of a safety device to limit overpressure (water hammer) and safeguard the installation if the pump’s power or the elevation of the water source creates a pressure exceeding 3 bar. A pressure-reducing sleeve is supplied and recommended for pressures between 2 and 3 bar.
If the pressure exceeds 3 bar, a pressure reducer is essential to ensure the safety of the installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I maintain my 20-micron sediment filter?
The 20-micron sediment filter is washable and reusable. To maintain it, simply rinse it with clean water and, if necessary, gently scrub the surface with the ORISA® soft brush to remove any accumulated particles. Regular cleaning helps to maintain its performance and extend its service life.
How often should I change my activated carbon filter?
We recommend replacing your activated carbon filter every 6 months to maintain optimum filtration performance.
Is the ORISA® pressure reducer mandatory?
No, a pressure reducer is not mandatory. Its use is recommended depending on your installation.
- In the case of connection to a non-potable water network, a pressure reducer is recommended for any water pressure above 3 bar.
- In the case of connection to a water tank with an elevation of more than 30 metres, the pressure reducer will protect the installation from overpressure phenomena such as water hammer.
- When connecting to a low water source, or even an underground source with water drawn up by a motorised pump, the pressure reducer will protect your installation from overpressure in the pump's electrical circuit.
