R.O. PLANTS INSTALLATION
Reverse osmosis (RO) is a water purification process that uses a partially permeable membrane to remove ions, unwanted molecules and larger particles from drinking water. In reverse osmosis, an applied pressure is used to overcome osmotic pressure, a colligative property that is driven by chemical potential differences of the solvent, a thermodynamic parameter. Reverse osmosis can remove many types of dissolved and suspended chemical species as well as biological ones (principally bacteria) from water, and is used in both industrial processes and the production of potable water.
We are expert in designing R.O. from 1000 Litre to 1 Lac litre water per hour.
Reverse Osmosis System Components
RO Module
- The RO module is the main component and holds the pre-filters, membrane, and post-filter. A bracket is provided so they can be mounted under the sink or in a basement.
Angle Stop Valve
- The angle stop valve connects to the cold water line to supply water to the RO system and provides an easy ability to shut off the water supply when servicing the unit.
Pre-Filter #1
- Melt Blown Polypropylene filter removes larger particles such as dirt, rust & sediment.
Pre-Filter #2 (And 3 If Applicable)
- 10 Micron Carbon Block removes chlorine and chemical contaminants in the feed water and protects the RO membrane.
Automatic Shut-Off Valve
- Automatic shut-off valve closes when the storage tank is full and shuts off the water supply to conserve water. The valve activates when the tank pressure is 2/3 of the feed pressure.
Membrane
- Reverse Osmosis Membrane Thin Film Composite Membranes reduces dissolved minerals, metals, and salts. In this process, harmful compounds are separated by the membrane from the water, and the contaminants are flushed to the drain.
Post-Filter
- A coconut shell activated carbon post filter is provided for a final “polish" and to remove tastes, odors and to provide great tasting water.
Bladder Tank
- Bladder tank holds RO purified water, ready to use.
Drinking Water Faucet
- The RO Faucet is used to dispense purified water when you want it.
Drain Clamp
- A wastewater saddle valve connects to the drain to remove reject water from the RO system.
Tubing
- Tubing connects all RO components.
Quick-Connect Fittings
- Quick-Connect fittings are used for necessary tubing connections. These fittings connect by pushing the tube into the fitting past a slight resistance until the tube bottoms out in the fitting. Simply make a clean cut in your tubing and gently push in the tubing until it will not go any further. To ensure that your tubing has made a snug fit, pull back gently on the tubing; it should catch. Always check for leaks to ensure a watertight connection.
Your Reverse Osmosis (RO) System has been tested to ensure it will operate correctly. The following periodic maintenance is recommended so your system will provide years of trouble-free service:
- Pre-filters (Sediment) – Once per year
- Pre-filter (Carbon Block(s)) – Once per year
- RO Membrane – Usually Every 2 years
- Post filter (Carbon) – Once per year
