Is the DI on a small RO system? If so have you fitted the rubber on the top of the cartridge? If not a small RO, have you got the water going in the right way, there is little arrows on top of the DI tank?

OK it is the small RO system. Have you got a rubber on the top of the cartridge? If not then it needs one, or the water will be passing through the cartridge without going through the resin.

yeah i have put the rubber on top of cartridge,you mean not in the cartridge?
on top of outside of cartridge?
thats what i have done,i have tried many differnet ways and now itis tds 16
im scratching my head.
Would it be worth taking the new resin out of the cartridge and putting some more in?
I have the cartridge has a cross on top i pressume that means to go upwards?
cheers for your advice

Has the cartridge got a screwed base or does it just come apart without screwing??
If it has the screw thread then where it screws is the bottom, and the rubber goes on top.
Is the cartridge held tight when the housing it tightened? I have seen two rubbers needed to achieve this. You can try flipping the rubber as well, although if this needs done the reading is not generally as high.
If the resin has not brought it down since your changed the resin then it won't be done. Worth a try changing it though.
What is the reading going into the DI?

there was no screwing i had to pull off,and now its loose could that be the problem??
it has 2 rubbers the cartridge seems tight when the housing is tightened!

I don't use this type but I think the part that comes off to fill goes to the top, instead of the other type with the screw on base that goes to the bottom. Is this how you have it? If not try turning it the other way.
Peter
-
i pulled it off that goes to top but is loose like i say,it isnt airtight should i perhaps change resin then tape it so airtight?

No it dosn't need taped, that is not your problem. Try changing the resin though. What is the reading going into the DI.

sounds to me your resin is shot, or you have put to much resin in vessal, water may not flowing over it all which would make it rise quickly.
have you changed any prefilters lately ? because if carbon is in your di it will kill it quick smart.
-
maybe i have put too much resin as i filled it too the brim.
had no idea how much to put into so forced it in. :'(

Check you haven't broken it. If you have split the pipe you will get resin in the water
-
On the top of the housing where you screw the clear plastic cartridge in there should be a thin black o ring, is that there ?
-
well done marcus you was correct i had the black o rings in the right place spoke to james at xline and he told he that was wrong.
due to leaving my tds meter out in the rain with a huff that is not working now but the flow from the di is super fast now!
just hope the water is pure.
cheers everyyone cheers james at xline!
