SYSTEM DESCRIPTION:
The CSP™ RO System is a three stage reverse osmosis system.
1. First, the incoming feed water is passed through a 0.5 micron MicroTec™
sediment prefilter. This filter is required to remove excess turbidity (particulate
matter) that may cause the membrane to plug.
2. The second stage of filtration is a 0.5 micron carbon block prefilter. This filter
removes organics and chlorine from the feed water that can damage the
membrane.
3. The third filtration stage of the system is a high rejection thin film
composite (TFC) reverse osmosis membrane. It removes over 96% of
most inorganic salts, all microorganisms and almost all high molecular
weight organics in the water.
