Hi Flow Low Pressure
RO Membrane Element - ProTool
RO or Reverse Osmosis, is a technology commonly used for water desalination, as well, RO removes dissolved solid and other impurities from water after advanced micro treatment.
Suitable for desalting those water sources TDS lower than 1000 ppm, such as surface water, underground water, tap water and municipal water, etc
A Quality RO Membrane that flows well, and pressure matters
> 1.0 Gallons at Tap Water 65 psi pressure, 70F water
About 2.0 Gallons per Minute at 90 psi pressure, 70F water
About 3.0 Gallons per Minute or more at 125psi pressure, 70F Water.
Max Flow Membrane offers High Flow rates but typically needs 125% of the expected output flow at for the target output to be met.
RO Membrane Specifications:
-
Permeate Production: 5500 Gallons per Day
-
Testing Pressure: 150psi, Temperature: 77F
-
Operating Pressure: 60psi to 150psi
-
Rejection Rate: Greater than 99%
-
Max Water Temperature: 113F
-
PH Range Of Feedwater Allowed during Operation: 3~10ph
Water temperature effects flow rates, as water becomes colder it's density increases and RO Membrane water production is reduced.
Water Pressure is important to a Max, High Flow membrane, the membrane flows well at Tap Water pressure but really performs its best when more pressure is applied to the membrane.
NOTE: Store RO membranes above 36 degrees F to avoid damaging the filters. Do not let the membranes freeze.
Membranes that are in service for more than 8 hours need a more RO Bypass water percentage target from 50%/50% Permeate to Bypass to 1 gallon of permeate to 2 gallons of RO Bypass when in production 24/7
