Note: The drinking water production changes according to the salinity, the temperature of the
seawater and the age of the R.O. membrane. The data regarding the fresh water production apply to a
salinity of 35 grams/liter at a temperature of 25ºCelsius (77°Fahrenheit) at the new membrane.
A discrepancy up to 10% +/- is within the usual range. At current consumption, discrepancies of up to
5% +, especially in the first 50 hours of operation, are usual.
