Thread: RO Membrane

  1. #11

    Default RO Membrane

    It is exhausted completely. It was down to a slow drip output. It was odd though because it happened suddenly.

    Are you measuring pressure into the unit? Or tds after the membrane, before the di resin?

    When is the last time you flushed it?

    Pressure in is good. TDS after membrane is between 20-25 after DI is 0. I removed the membrane and the flow was awesome, so I ran a little thru DI and it was 0 so I used that for topoff but I know that will exhaust the DI resin extremely fast.

    I bought my flush kit from Louis at elegant reef. He may have another one in stock.

    Well 20-25 is not good after the membrane....

    Will it stay at that range while you make a gallon or 2 of di water?

    Reason i ask, I have a T after my membrane and usually flush a gallon or 2 of water out before closing the T and letting the di resin polish it off.... It will climb as high as 100+ then drop down to 4-6 but it takes a gallon or 2... I usually save that water for my new trees..

    Oh and i wouldnt buy a membrane while you wait for yours to come in the mail... Di resin is alot cheaper for a bag.. iF after your resin your getting 0, maybe just prep a few gallons until you get all your filters in..

    Louis @ elegant is has the bags of resin, which is where i scoop up mine from.
