SECTION I.   INTRODUCTION 

  Your new Reverse Osmosis (R.O.) Drinking Water 

System uses a combination of filtration technologies to 

reduce unwanted contaminants in a water supply. The 

following steps combine to give you the best in clear 

sparkling drinking water: 
  MECHANICAL FILTRATION–The Sediment Prefilter 

has been designed to reduce the larger particles such 

as silt, rust and scale. Its 5 micron (equal to 0.0002 

inch) nominal rating helps to give maximum life to the 

R.O. Membrane. 

  ACTIVATED CARBON–The Activated Carbon 

Prefilter contains carbon particles with a vast network 

of pores. The tremendous surface area of these 

pores (typically 800–1200 square meters per gram 

of carbon) gives the carbon very good adsorptive 

sites for substances that contribute to tastes and 

odors. The activated carbon in the Prefilter has been 

designed to reduce any chlorine that may be present 

in the feed water. This pretreatment is necessary for 

membrane protection.

  REVERSE OSMOSIS MEMBRANE–The R.O. 

Membrane is the heart of the filtration system. It is 

designed to reduce the dissolved mineral content of 

the water. Minerals picked up in the environment by 

the water are measured as Total Dissolved Solids 

(TDS). In the Reverse Osmosis process, dissolved 

minerals are separated from the incoming water 

(Feed Water) to produce the product water (the 

Permeate). The excess minerals are rinsed to drain 

(the Reject Water). 

  The membrane is a specially constructed, fully 

aromatic polyamide film, and is classified as a Thin 

Film Composite (T.F.C.).

  The spiral wound construction of the R.O. Membrane 

provides maximum surface area for water production 

and is less susceptible to fouling by particulate matter, 

turbidity and colloidal materials. 

  IN–LINE ACTIVATED CARBON POST FILTER–The 

In–Line Activated Carbon Post Filter is located after 

the Holding Tank and has been designed to reduce 

the tastes and odors that may pass through the 

system. It adds a final polish to the water. 

  AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF VALVE–The ASO Valve 

senses when the Holding Tank is full and closes the 

feed water supply to prevent excess reject water from 

going to drain when the unit is not producing water.
