I bought a used BRS 150 gpd system from a fellow reefer for $75 and bought the carbon block and DI resin kit for $50. So $125 in all ,not bad. The membranes still have a good amount of life left in them . The reefer buddy helped me install it and I get a whopping 85 psi when it runs. The pressure gauge indicates about 45 psi when the valve is closed . I can fill a 5 gallon water bottle in about 1 hr so I'm pretty happy with that. Even better was the fact that I didn't need an expensive booster pump to increase water line pressure because I have more than enough.

My home regulator broke. In the week before it got repaired, my psi was reading 120. I was getting 160+ gpd out of my unit. Very little waste water. It was amazing. However, It did leak, and when your pressure is that high you run the risk of blowing out the unit. But I will remember it fondly.

This test was for the FilmTec *BW60-1812-75* membrane, which has a minimum salt rejection of *96%.* What do you think of the similar FilmTec *TW30-1812-50HR* membrane, which has a minimum salt rejection of *98%* ? It is a bit slower, but as a worst-case scenario, it lets only *2%* of the TDS pass through compared to *4%* .

The BW60-1812-75 actually has 99% salt rejection rate, so it's our go-to membrane if rejection rate is the priority. The TW30-1812-50HR also has a 99% salt rejection rate, but like you mentioned, produces water more slowly. You can usually get even better performance out of your membrane by increasing the pressure past the test PSI (like Ryan talks about in this video). If you're into computers, think of it as similar to overclocking.

i'm using the BRS value water saver+ on about 46PSI and I get like 2-3TDS post-RO and of course 0TDS post-DI. I wish I had a TDS meter on the incoming water though, as I'm not sure what it is coming in. Haha, I was secretly hoping you'd have tested 45PSI to give an idea what my system is like! Haha, but i think at 46PSI i'm probably doing mostly-OK. I've been super impressed with this system so far. I was interested if dual vs single membrane made any difference for pressure, since I am running your dual membrane / 150GPD system and i've often heard people say they require higher pressures.

90 PSI is the max that we recommend, although most of us will dial it back to around 70-80 PSI with a booster pump. The pressure really only matters going into the RO membrane. Coming out, the pressure will be substantially reduced.

I currently just installed a new RODI setup, but I am still getting 22 tds after the RO (330 tds at sources) after having ran it for 4 hours at 50-60 psi presssure and very warm waters... not sure what the issue might be ??

This is correct. You should see fairly normal rejection rates after 24 hours of production, but optimal will show after a few days. Other factors can effect this like water temp not being at 77 degrees, and pressure through the unit. I would give it some time, and if having issues you can contact our support team for troubleshooting assistance. (:

@BRStv

All of our BRS RODI units run best at 50psi and up. Higher PSI in the 80-90 range does produce better performance, but the seals should not leak. It's best to verify that the O-ring inside the top of the canister is not pinched or damaged and also best to use the canister tool to ensure they are tightly sealed. If it continues to leak, try replacing the o-rings with new ones. :)

Good to know about the temperature. Next time I'm making a large batch of water, I'm going to try increasing the incoming water temp. by adding a 25 foot tubing inside the main display tank at 79 degrees. Hopefully that would be enough to get some heat exchange and increase performance. I know I have cool incoming water because after a few hours of running, everything appears to be "sweating".(Similar to when you pull a cold beer out of the fridge. After a few minutes it's covered dew.)

We would try adjusting the trigger point on your pressure switch. You can do this with a small allen wrench. This could help make sure the pump stays off. If this does not help we would check the float to ensure its not letting water pressure out.

As the pressure increases and the product water rate increases what happens to the waste water? Is the waste to product ratio getting closer to 1:1 or does the ratio remain the same? I am assuming the flow coming out of the tap to remain the same so the increased pressure should also reduce waste water 🤔 or do booster pumps suck more water from the tap? 🤔🤔

Hi I've just got a 3 stage, I'm bit confused, I've seen on KZbin say you should get about 25/30% RO water, yet you say about 98% rejection, I measured mine today and something must be wrong, with waste water I can fill a 10 litre watering can up in 4 minutes and 29 drips of RO every 10 seconds, 696 drips every 4 minutes, surly that's to much waste? It takes me 12 hours just to get to buckets worth, as hard as I try I can't get 100% fit on the tap, it leaks about 5% volume of waste water flow rate, I thought yes that would probably cause slight problem but not that much, being on my parents water meter I'm not going to be able to keep that much wasted going, would cost about £160/£200 a year just on water
@BRStv
@BRStv 3 жыл бұрын
The rejection rate is in regards to contaminants. For our single membrane systems, you can usually expect about a 3:1 waste to product ratio, while the water saver systems will usually have a 1.5:1 waste to product ratio. You'll get more product water and less waste with higher pressure and the other way around with lower pressure.

just throwing something out there. actually called some of these booster pump guys like Shurflo and Flotec. not for aquarium use but looking for a booster for my 4040 Axeon HF5 membrane. 80 is the basic listed optimal pressure. still produces a lot of water, rated at 2400 gpd. 80 to 100 psi would be great. Did notice that when I used a transfer pump and got to 80 the TDS was never really affected. it just produced more water faster. So also wonder if this membrane is set up to run at 80 too 100 but to affect tds at that point it needs to boost over 100 to see tds drop or maybe that is just what the membrane can give because of the type water I have?

I was thinking on setting up two tanks with the same water. On one you put carbon and in the other one nothing to have as control. Take a sample of the water before the test starts, send it for analysis to triton or aquarium water testing to see how parameters look like. Then wait X amount of time (days, weeks) and take samples during that time and send them for analysis to see how parameters deviate. By having the control tank you can compare to see how much the carbon consumes vs the control one.

hi,brs. I have 100gpd dow membrane with 500 flow rejection. my tap water is 270 ppm but after membrane my tds is 34 ppm. it's right? or I should get better tds. also my pressure gage is on 80 psi. What's problem???

My RO system constantly changes pressure from 45 to 70 psi (mostly at 45), why is that?
@BRStv
@BRStv 5 жыл бұрын
Typically fluctuating pressures come from water being used in other parts of the house/apartment/building, much like some people experience in the shower when another family member flushes the toilet. LOL! However, if this is happening (say in the middle of the night when there is a far less likely chance of people using the water), I would look at when your sediment filter was last changed or a valve within the system needing replaced. You can always give us a call to help you trouble shoot! 763-432-9691

I just changed out all my filters. replaced the DI resin. And I'm getting at least 90% product water. And my wastewater is only dripping out, with a zero TDS. why is my waste water so low? I have a video on my channel ABREEZEDUCTTESTING good news /bad news. thanks BRS

LOL, 130 TDS, lucky BRS lives in the land of 10,000 Lakes. I live in Texas (DFW) where the LOWEST TDS I've seen is 250 with a high of 450 and lately with a lot of rain in 2016 and the lakes full about 300. *Your mileage may vary* :) BTW I've implemented the booster pump and dual Dow RO membranes run at 90 PSI (my local supply was about 40......on a good day) I can get 240 gallons a day and my waste water is down 80 % from pre booster pump use........no, really. Again, remember *Your mileage may vary*. I forgot to mention, I use BRS DI resin and my water comes out at 0 TDS.

That's a fair consideration. You can always add a second membrane to cut the waste water down by half. Here is a video with more info on that setup if you're interested. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r2StqGiaiaeDZqs

I have a RO/DI unit, which I occasionally back flush and replace the cartridges. It's rated at 100 gallons per day, and right now I'm getting 92 PPM TDS rejection water, and 0 PPM product water. The chlorinated well water coming out of the tap is 82 PPM.
BEWARE! These RO/DI Water Mistakes are sending $$ down the drain! Your reef tank deserves better.
