Basic R.O. System XX

SWT Basic™ Reverse Osmosis Systems are designed specifically for chlorinated municipal water applications. They are capable of producing up to 20 gallons per day of high quallity water for a fraction of the cost of bottled water and with none of the hassles.

More than just healthy drinking water for adults, children and pets — RO quality water is also great for use in appliances such as steam irons, humidifiers, ice makers, and car batteries.

  • Convenient 3 position faucet
  • Large water reservoir
  • All hardware necessary for installation

HOW IT WORKS:
  • First the water is filtered through a 5 micron sediment trap that works to remove silt, sand, sludge, and grit form the water supply. It also protects the RO element from clogging.
  • The water is then hyperfiltrated through a reverse osmosis element that treats the water down to the molecular level. It will reject 93% to 99+% of contaminates such as salt, nitrates, lead, fluoride, iron, copper, mercury, and arsenic. It also filters out larger organisms such as giardia cysts and cryptosporidium.
  • The water then enters a storage tank until needed.
  • The water's final filtration process, just prior to the faucet, is a very fine carbon block filter which removes compounds such as pesticides and a host of chemicals that have been deemed primary drinking hazards by the EPA (see list below).

GENERAL INSTALLATION AND SERVICE PARAMETERS
XX
The SWT Basic™ RO System will work at peak efficiency on either municipal or ground water supplies that do not exceed the following:
Maximum psi
Minimum psi
Chlorine
TDS
Iron
Hardness
Hydrogen Sulfide
Manganese
125 lbs.
35 lbs.
2 ppm
1500 ppm
0.4 ppm
17 gr/gal
0.05 ppm
0.1 ppm
The SWT Basic™ has been designed to give many years of trouble free service. To keep the system operating in peak efficiency, it is recommended that the unit be inspected every six months for possible prefilter sediment clogging (especially if there is a lot of sediment in the water supply).
XX
The manufacturer recom-mends that the system be serviced on an annual basis to replace the carbon filtration module and the RO membrane module.*

* The RO membrane module may last for a much longer period of time on relatively good water. Check with your Water Treatment Professional for local water characteristics and testing.
