SWT logo SWT MetalsMaster™

Basic R.O. System XX

SWT MetalsMaster™ Reverse Osmosis Systems are especially designed for areas with water supplies contaminated by heavy metals and high TDS. They combine RO technology with oxidation/carbon filtration to bring up to 36 gallons per day of bottled water quality to the faucet at a fraction of the cost. That's 36 gallons of clear, refreshing water that is not only healthy to drink, but good for cooking and 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:
  • The first stage contains a 5 micron sediment cartridge that removes silt sand, sludge, and grit from the water supply.
  • The second stage is a specially designed carbon block that has been blended with an oxidation media which traps particulates of metals such as lead and copper. This block also removes, or greatly reduces, most of the chemical compounds that the EPA has deemed as health hazards in drinking water (see list below). As compared to systems not having this type of prefilter, this stage greatly extends the life of the RO membrane when treating high TDS water.
  • The third stage hyperfiltrates the water under pressure and forces it through a reverse osmosis membrane which treats the prefiltered water on a molecular level, filtering out 93% to 98% of dissolved solids such as salt, nitrates, lead, fluoride, and arsenic. It also filters out organisms such as cryptosporidium and giardia cysts.
  • The water then enters a storage tank until needed.
  • The final stage is a second carbon filter which is used to polish the RO water just prior to the faucet.

The SWT MetalsMaster™ is much more than an RO system. It has been designed to work on water that has chemical and bacterial contamination also. The carbon filtration modules will remove, or significantly reduce, over 50 chemical substances that the EPA has deemed potential carcinogens. They include:

GENERAL INSTALLATION AND SERVICE PARAMETERS
XX
The SWT MetalsMaster™ RO System will work at peak efficiency on either municipal or ground water supplies that do not exceed the following:
Maximum psi
TDS
Iron
Hardness
Hydrogen Sulfide
Manganese
125 lbs.
1800 ppm
0.4 ppm
17 gr/gal
0.05 ppm
0.1 ppm
The SWT MetalsMaster™ 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.
