INTRODUCTION
Your new Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water
System uses a combination of filtration
technologies to reduce unwanted contaminants in
your water supply. The following steps combine to
give you the best in clear sparkling drinking water:
The membrane is a specially constructed, Fully
aromatic polyamide film, and is classified as a
Thin Film Composite (T.F.C.).
The spiral wound construction of the Reverse
Osmosis Membrane provides maximum surface
area for water production and is less susceptible
to fouling by particulate matter, turbidity and
colloidal materials.
MECHANICAL FILTRATION - The Sediment
Pre-filter will remove the larger particles such as
silt, rust and scale. Its 5 micron (equal to 0.0002
inch) nominal rating helps to give maximum life
to the Reverse Osmosis Membrane.
IN-LINE ACTIVATED CARBON COCONUT
SHELL POST FILTER – The In-Line Activated
Carbon Post Filter is located after the Holding
Tank and reduces the tastes and odors that may
pass through the system. It adds a final polish to
the water.
CARBON BLOCK – The Carbon Block Pre-filter
contains carbon with a vast network of pores.
The tremendous surface area of these pores
(typically 800-1200 square meters per gram of
carbon) gives the carbon very good adsorptive
sites for substances that contribute to tastes and
odors. The carbon block in the Pre-filter will
remove any chlorine that may be present in the
feed water. This pretreatment is necessary for
membrane protection.
AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF VALVE – The ASO
Valve senses when the product water tank is full
and closes the feed water supply to prevent
excess reject water from going to drain when the
unit is not producing water.
REVERSE OSMOSIS MEMBRANE – The
Reverse Osmosis Membrane is the heart of the
filtration system. It is designed to reduce the
dissolved mineral content of the water. Minerals
picked up in the environment by the water are
measured as Total Dissolved Solids (TDS). In
the Reverse Osmosis process, dissolved
minerals are separated from the incoming water
(the Permeate). The excess minerals are rinsed
to drain (the Reject Water).
IMPORTANT NOTICES:
This Reverse Osmosis system contains replaceable treatment components critical for effective performance. It
is the user's responsibility to, and the manufacturer strongly recommends that the user, periodically test the
product water to verify the system is performing satisfactorily.
This system is acceptable for treatment of influent concentrations of no more that 27 mg/l nitrate and 3 mg/l
nitrate in combination measured as N and is certified for nitrate/nitrite reduction only for water supplies with a
pressure of 40 psig (280 kPa) or greater.
DO NOT USE WITH WATER THAT IS MICROBIOLOGICALLY UNSAFE OR OF UNKNOWN QUALITY,
WITHOUT ADEQUATE DISINFECTION BEFORE OR AFTER THE SYSTEM. Systems certified for cyst
reduction may be used on disinfected water that may contain filterable cysts.
BOOSTER PUMP – The in line booster
pump will increase the incoming water
pressure after the pre sediment and
carbon filtration stages to 80psi for
maximum efficiency and production
quality through the TFC membrane
TDS removal process. Power standard
outlet plug 110V / 60 Hz is required.
