There will be a few technical ex-
planations in this manual, which
we describe below.
Permeate: The treated, totally
desalinated water
which is produced
by
the BWT
PERMAQ ® Com-
pact 51 plant and
supplied to the res-
ervoir tank.
Concentrate: Is the water that is
led to outlet. This
water contains the
salts and minerals
that have been re-
moved from the
water.
Raw water: Is the water which
is led directly to the
BWT
PERMAQ ®
Compact 51 plant
and which must be
desalinated in the
BWT
PERMAQ ®
Compact 51 plant.
TDS: The amount of to-
tally dissolved salts
measured in (mg/l)
Conductivity: Is the designation
of salt concentra-
tion of the water,
measured
in
(µS/cm). The lower
the value, the better
the water quality.
Membranes: Is the filter of the
plant which by high
pressure and flow
is capable of desal-
inating the raw wa-
ter.
RO: The abbreviation
for Reverse Osmo-
sis.
Transport Is the pump which
pump: transports the treat-
ed water from the
plant reservoir to
the consumer.
Level switch: Is a switch, which
gives a signal when
the BWT PERMAQ
®

must
either be
started or stopped,
and it stops the
transport pump in
case of dry-running
of
the reservoir
tank.
Softening Is a pre-filter
plant: which softens the
water, that means it
removes hardness
from the water.
