Description
LivePure domestic reverse osmosis (RO) membrane typically refers to a filtration component used in household water purification systems. Here’s a description of a typical 100 gallons per day (GPD) domestic reverse osmosis membrane:
- Filtration Capacity: Capable of purifying up to 100 gallons of water per day, making it suitable for household use where moderate to high volumes of purified water are needed.
- Material: The membrane is typically made of a thin film composite (TFC) or a similar high-quality material designed to effectively filter out contaminants while allowing water molecules to pass through.
- Pore Size: The membrane features extremely small pores, typically in the range of 0.0001 microns, which effectively removes a wide range of contaminants including dissolved solids, bacteria, viruses, and other impurities.
- Efficiency: Designed to remove up to 99% of contaminants commonly found in tap water, including heavy metals like lead and arsenic, chlorine, fluoride, pesticides, herbicides, and various chemicals.
- Longevity: With proper maintenance and periodic replacement, a domestic RO membrane can last anywhere from 2 to 5 years depending on usage and water quality.
- Compatibility: Compatible with standard residential reverse osmosis systems, including under-sink filtration units, countertop units, and whole-house filtration systems.
- Installation: The membrane is typically installed as part of a multi-stage filtration system, which may also include pre-filters and post-filters to enhance performance and extend the life of the membrane.
- Maintenance: Regular maintenance, including flushing and periodic cleaning, is recommended to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the membrane.
- Certifications: Look for membranes that are certified by reputable organizations such as the NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) or ANSI (American National Standards Institute) to ensure quality and performance standards are met.
- Manufacturer Specifications: Specific details regarding operating pressure, temperature range, pH tolerance, and other performance parameters will vary depending on the manufacturer and model of the membrane.
