Reverse osmosis RO is a water purification technology that uses a semipermeable membrane to remove ions, molecules, and larger particles from drinking water. Reverse osmosis RO Softener water In reverse osmosis, an applied pressure is used to overcome osmotic pressure, a colligative property, that is driven by chemical potential differences of the solvent, a thermodynamic parameter. Reverse osmosis can remove many types of dissolved and suspended species from water, including bacteria, and is used in both industrial processes and the production of potable water. The result is that the solute is retained on the pressurized side of the membrane and the pure solvent is allowed to pass to the other side. To be “selective”, this membrane should not allow large molecules or ions through the pores (holes), but should allow smaller components of the solution (such as solvent molecules) to pass freely.

In the normal osmosis process, the solvent naturally moves from an area of low solute concentration (high water potential), through a membrane, to an area of high solute concentration (low water potential). Reverse osmosis RO Softener water The driving force for the movement of the solvent is the reduction in the free energy of the system when the difference in solvent concentration on either side of a membrane is reduced, generating osmotic pressure due to the solvent moving into the more concentrated solution. Applying an external pressure to reverse the natural flow of pure solvent, thus, is reverse osmosis. The process is similar to other membrane technology applications. However, key differences are found between reverse osmosis and filtration. Reverse osmosis RO water The predominant removal mechanism in membrane filtration is straining, or size exclusion, so the process can theoretically achieve perfect efficiency regardless of parameters such as the solution’s pressure and concentration. Reverse osmosis also involves diffusion, making the process dependent on pressure, flow rate, and other conditions.[1] Reverse osmosis is most commonly known for its use in drinking water purification from seawater, removing the salt and other effluent materials from the water molecules.
Z-RO System Models
The space saving Z-RO model is the brand new model used in households or small commercial applications. It is capable of a hefty 180L/day of purified water, with typically 90% less salts than incoming water Built on the previous success of the X-RO, it carries the same benefits but utilizes a far cheaper non-branded pump, but retains the Filmtec® membrane offering maximum water quality.

We have retained all the perfection of the components of the X-RO and are now more competitive. Moreover it is the neatest appliance one can have in the kitchen as the whole system is completely enclosed in its case. Reverse osmosis RO water
It is normally connected under sinks, and operates automatically filling the tank and stopping when it is full. Point of use is a single lever attractive faucet.
It comes complete with all fittings necessary for installation. Operation is 24Vdc via 240Vac transformer
