Applications

The Millenium™ Reverse Osmosis (RO) System is designed to purify water by forcing
water through a semi-permeable RO membrane. Water purified by reverse osmosis has
had approximately 95% of the dissolved ions and approximately 99% of most other
contaminants removed. The quality of the purified water, referred to as product water or
permeate, depends on the quality of the feed water and normally is equal to or exceeds
AAMI standards. Such water is suitable for hemodialysis applications.
