100 gpd ro-man upgrade
« on: April 20, 2006, 06:51:05 pm »
Just bought one of these it's all self explanatory really exept it came with a 0ne way union elbow where does it go ?
has any one set up one of these ? I have it on the waste line between Membrane 1(out) & membrane 2(in)

any comments pretty please ;D


Also im using a ro-man pump box and have just added a float valve to the tank but does it matter weather the solenoid in the pump box is before the di stage? , if this makes any sense

I'll assume I'm the first ever to upgrade from 100 gpd then!

Hi Chris, i havent installed an upgrade kit yet, but i do have a 200gpd ro-man system with their pump box too. I've just gone out to look at it and i cant see a one-way elbow on my setup, or any one-way fittings at all!!


Also im using a ro-man pump box and have just added a float valve to the tank but does it matter weather the solenoid in the pump box is before the di stage? , if this makes any sense 

According to what i remember of the instructions that came with my pump box, you take the output of your pre-filters into the "In" of the pump and then the "Out" of the pump goes to the in of your 1st membrane. Then take the output from the membranes back into the box into the other input, ( for the sensor for cutting out the pump when your tank's full ) and then take the output to your tank and the float valve.

Hope this is clear enough. I dont have a di vessel before my storage tank but i think once you start using di resin you need to keep it damp, but i dont think it would matter where in the pipeline after the membranes you put it, just put it wherever it's easiest to plumb

Hope this helps,

Tim

Thanks Tim

If you haven't got any one way pieces then I cant be going far wrong, I've plumbed it in correctly but just couldn't see a definite place for a one way elbow

I did plumb in the DI were it was best suited , just checking that I hadn't missed anything obvious that's all

Cheers Chris

Hi Chris,

The one way elbow is to replace the elbow on your membrane BUT ONLY if you are not using an RO-man system, if you are up[grading a RO-Man system then you can just throw it away!
