#540720 150 GPD
OVERVIEW
Reverse osmosis is the process of removing
contaminants from tap water using special
semi-permeable membrane. By applying
water pressure across the membrane,
contaminants are concentrated on one side
of the membrane and filtered water on the
other side of the membrane. This is why
reverse osmosis units have a waste water
line as well as a filtered line.
In addition to the membrane, water is filtered
prior to the membrane with a sediment
cartridge to remove larger particulates, and
two carbon blocks to remove chlorine and
chloramines.
The cartridges and membrane on your
unit are designed for placement inside the
canisters. It is important the cartridges be
installed in the correct order to effectively
filter the water.

WARNING:
carefully before proceeding with
installation. Your failure to follow
any attached instructions and
operating parameters may lead
to the product's failure.
OPERATING GUIDELINES
DO NOT use with water that is micro-
biologically unsafe or of unknown quality
without adequate disinfection before or
after the unit.
The maximum incoming water pressure
for the unit is 80 PSI.
If the pressure is more than 80 PSI, a pressure
regulator is required. If the water pressure is
less than 40 PSI, a booster pump is needed.
Reverse osmosis filtered water should
not be run through a copper tube.
RO water can leach copper from the pipe,
eventually leading to holes in the pipe.
DO NOT operate the unit unattended.
