GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF SYSTEM
This under counter reverse osmosis water treatment system includes three major components identified as the
Reverse Osmosis Head Assembly, the Storage Tank and the Long Reach Faucet.
The REVERSE OSMOSIS HEAD ASSEMBLY is comprised of three to five separate filtering stages, determined
by your water treatment requirements. Each stage is designed to remove a particular type of impurity and are
identified as:
A)
The sediment filter which reduces suspended matter from tap water by passing it through a cartridge
filter preparing the water for the reverse osmosis membrane.
B)
Precarbon which contains activated carbon to reduce chlorine. In systems with TFC membrane,
chlorine will damage membrane.
C)
The Reverse Osmosis Membrane which is a semi-permeable membrane and is the heart of the
system. Here, the remaining suspended solids and most of the dissolved impurities are separated
from the water molecules and flushed down the drain.
D)
The postfilter which contains activated carbon, removes any residual taste and odor from the product
water.
The STORAGE TANK is designed to store up to 2
½
gallons of product water. The storage tank is shipped
pressurized (5-7 psi when empty) to force the water up to the long reach faucet when it is opened.
The LONG REACH FAUCET provides a convenient means to draw water from the R.O. storage tank. It is a
compact, chrome plated fixture with a two position black handle that allows either continuous flow when lifted
up or an intermittent flow when the handle is pushed down. NOTE: some models may have a faucet with a
chrome rotating handle to regulate the flow.
This system can be used to supply water to an ice maker or additional remote faucets. If such an arrangement is
desired, contact the distributor for further information.
