product.
Note: The performance data presented in the table is applicable under standard laboratory conditions
#
. Actual
performance may vary depending on the input water quality, water pressure, turbidity and condition of filters. Input
water quality/pressure/TDS are important determinants of recovery rate and rejection.
**If the input water pressure is more than 3.0 kg/cm
2
, installation of a PRV (Pressure Reducing Valve) is
mandatory. If the input water pressure is less than 0.3 kg/cm
2
, installation of a booster pump is recommended. If
the input water pressure is less than 0.3 kg/cm
2
, installation of a booster pump is recommended.
++
If the input water TDS is more than 1,000 ppm (mg/L) or input water hardness is more than 300 ppm (mg/L), use
of a Membrane life enhancer is recommended.
These accessories are available at an extra cost.
Warranty void if not installed as per recommendations.
