Tunze Osmolater to K1 Kalk Stirrer

[bkelley02]

I have a tunze Osmolater that is about 10-12 years old and I'm having trouble connecting the hose to the fitting on the K1 Kalk Stirrer. I can force the hose into the fitting but not all the way and it leaks when pushing water into it. The hose is a bit larger than the standard 1/4" tubing used for RO/DI and that the fitting on the top is built for. How are others getting this to work? I've tried and the 1/4" hose will not fit on the Tunze pump to rerun to the Kalk Stirrer.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks,

Brian

Thanks Dan! Do you also sell or know what I can use to prevent the back-flow into the reservoir? A check valve for the line?

Yes, the 1/4" check valve will work:

Excellent. Should it be the 3/16 to fit in the Tunze hose. Should that be the one?

Yes, thanks for the order Brian!
