77 °F, and SDI < 5. Use a suitable pretreatment capable of removing all membrane damaging substances. PRO+AQUA PRO+RO Series Reverse Osmosis systems If you purchased any of these systems with some variation or special design and it is not described have been designed and tested to provide high quality in this manual, please contact us indicating the corresponding serial number.
PRINCIPLES OF REVERSE OSMOSIS Principles of Reverse Osmosis Technology 2. Hydrolysis: It is a chemical reaction of water that affects the membrane. This happens when the water temperature is very high and the pH is below 2.5 or above 7. To avoid this, keep the How the Reverse Osmosis process works? pH between 5 and 6.
PRINCIPLES OF RO & IDENTIFYING SYSTEM COMPONENTS Feed Water Requirements SYSTEM COMPONENTS TYPICAL EXPECTED ION RETENTION 1. PREFILTER PRESSURE GAUGE: Glycerin filled pressure gauge IN A TFC MEMBRANE TYPE: (0-100psi). Standard on all units and is located on the front of the panel.

IDENTIFYING SYSTEM COMPONENTS Turning the valve knob will control the ratio of water discharged / water produced. CAUTION! Never use the pump without water. - Turning clockwise will increase pressure inside of the module and reduce the amount of waste water. - turning counterclockwise pressure will decrease within the module 12.

CONTROLLER PROGRAMMING CABLE CONNECTION IDENTIFICATION: TDS SENSOR CALIBRATION (CONTROLLER): - The controller has a basic TDS sensor that gives you a reading Violet: Low level Switch in the raw water tank (SW1) (*) of the quality of your product water that fills your tank. Blue: Shut-Off Switch for the pre-treatment (SW2) (*) - If you want to verify the calibration of the sensor,...
START-UP START-UP 10. The reverse osmosis unit is now in operation. Check for leaks. PPM product water will take approximately 60 minutes to reach the optimum final quality since the membranes 1. Make sure that everything related to the pre-treatment must be flushed from preservants.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Symptom Possible Cause Solution A) Power switch is off. A) Place in AUTO position. B1) Check power outlet and make sure system is plugged in. B) No power. B2) Check 2AMP fuse on back of controller. C1) Verify that the feed valve is fully open.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Symptom Possible Cause Solution A) saturated or dirty membrane. A) Check, clean, replace if necessary. B) Check your feed water temperature, check your correction 4) No product or too B) The water temperature is very low. factor for the temperature and make sure that the flow is at an acceptable level.
REVERSE OSMOSIS PRE-TREATMENT PRE-TREATMENT REQUIRED 1. Sediment filter: These filters are designed to remove FOR REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEMS. sediment present in the raw water and are important to prevent dirt from reaching the membrane and fouling it quickly. Various filtering materials such as: multimedia, silica This flow chart shows the typical pre-treatment and post- treatment equipment to complete the purification process.
PRO+AQUA will provide replacement parts to the original equipment purchaser in possession of a PRO+RO Series RO System that fails within (1) one years after the date of purchase, provided that it is at all times operated in accordance with specifications and not subject to freezing, sunlight or installed outdoors.
