Reverse Osmosis System Storage Tank Pressure

Turn off the feed water supply to the ro.

Reverse osmosis system storage tank pressure.

A pressurized storage tank for reverse osmosis product water is recommended for its ability to deliver reverse osmosis water to the faucet using air pressure within the tank. Disconnect the yellow line from the tank valve. The proper pressure is important to maintain as that will directly influence how well your ro system works and performs and how fast water can flow from it.

The pressure in the tank needs to be measured when the tank is completely empty so let s start by shutting off the water supply to your reverse osmosis system. The system shut off valve sold separately will automatically turn the ro system on and off as needed. Point y on figure 1. Please follow the steps below to re pressurize your tank on your ro system.

Drain the old tank completely thru the spigot. If your reverse osmosis system has a water tank in it that s meant for storing ro water then you ll need to periodically check the pressure in the tank and re pressurize it as necessary as a part of regular ro maintenance. Locate the pressure valve under the blue cap on the tank. The ro storage tank is a pressurized container within the ro system that s used to hold the finished purified water after the filtration process through the ro membrane.

The reverse osmosis system is equipped with a sensory valve that halts the production of water when the pressure in the tank reaches 2 3 of the line pressure. The reverse osmosis tank maintains pressure throughout the reverse osmosis system and actuates the on off cycling of the system by monitoring line pressure. Close the tank s ball valve.
