REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEMS
When to consider
Reverse Osmosis.
For any foodservice operation
in need of water treatment due
to high levels of Total Dissolved
Solids (TDS) in its water, a
reverse osmosis system is an
effective – yet often costly –
necessity. In fact, reverse
osmosis is by far the most
practical and effective solution
for removing TDS from water
and consistently achieving high
quality ingredient water.
How does one know if the TDS content in
the water is high enough to require a reverse
osmosis (RO) solution?
•
It imparts objectionable taste
•
It prevents conventional forms of scale control from
providing acceptable results
•
It negatively impacts the “recipe”
•
Or simply test the water; RO should be considered
when TDS levels in excess of 300 ppm are present
Note: Water production is dependent upon incoming water temperature
and line pressure. Consult your Everpure

correct system selection and design.

MRS-600HE systems
Conventional RO Systems
By contrast, conventional RO systems offer 20%
recovery, sending four cups of water to the drain for
each cup of coffee produced.
Wastewater to Drain
MRS-600HE Systems
With an average recovery of 78%, the MRS-600HE
systems dispose of about 1/4 of a cup of water for
each cup of coffee brewed.
Wastewater to Drain
A conventional RO system can require 5 volumes of water to produce 1 volume of water that can be dispensed. The remaining four volumes
are discharged to drain. The MRS-600HE systems waste only a small fraction of the total volume, thus reversing the ratio of waste-to-product
water relationship.
Need RO water, but feeling guilty about the “non-green”
waste-to-drain aspect? The high output/high efficiency
MRS-600HE and MRS-600HE-II configurable systems turn
the tables on conventional reverse osmosis operation –
more water is produced, less goes down the drain.
Both units produce pure RO water or blended (reduced
dissolved mineral) filtered water for multiple foodservice
applications, allowing custom tailorization of the final TDS
content. The MRS-600HE includes a second output, allowing
it to produce both pure RO water AND blended water.
Reverse Osmosis has become the most preferred method
for reducing TDS content in foodservice operations. It
consumes little or no electricity and does not require
dangerous chemicals. To visualize the dramatic difference
in efficiency between the MRS-600HE and conventional
systems, check-out the illustrations below.
