Description
Direct flow reverse osmosis system C500 original with a sturdy base, pump, and manometer: 4 stages of purification to remove up to 99.9% of chlorine, minerals, heavy metals, pesticides, organic substances, bacteria, and viruses.
Reinforced chassis with rack bracket in high-quality metal with stainless steel screws, patented and leak-resistant high-pressure switches, installation kit with tubes and 1-way Long-reach faucet with metal handle included. The system supplies ambient temperature osmotic water to drink and cook with maximum security.
The certified product according to UNE149101, Italian Decree 25/2012 and 174/2004.
The benefits of reverse osmosis system RO C500:
– Effective pre-filtration.
– Sturdy filter housing base that can be surface-mounted or hung on the wall.
– Classic, inexpensive and widely used 10″ filter cartridges, which are manufactured by a multitude of companies around the world.
– Low price with excellent quality and European assembly (within 500 euros).
– The integrated pump enables the system to be used when the water supply pressure is low and accelerates the filtration process. Thanks to the pressure booster pump, the system can be operated at a rather low line pressure of 1 atm. The pump is equipped with an electrical adapter and works with a safety voltage of 24 or 36 V.
– If required, the system may be easily supplemented with a UV lamp and TDS controller. If needed, simply increase the filter capacity by installing a larger membrane or a second parallel membrane.

How works the reverse osmosis (RO):
Reverse osmosis is a traditional, time-tested water purification method. It removes all types of water contaminants including hardness, bacteria, viruses, nitrates, nitrites, traces of pharmaceuticals, and any particles down to 0.0005 microns. Reverse osmosis filters have the most perfect degree of purification. They filter water slowly but retain not only common impurities but also impurities and toxins dissolved in water. Moreover, the membrane of the reverse osmosis filter traps most biological impurities, such as cholera bacteria, hepatitis viruses, and the Sars-Cov-2 coronavirus. At the exit of the reverse osmosis filter, we get the purest water without foreign smells and tastes. This water is better for your health, it has exceptional taste, clarity, and softness.
However Reverse osmosis system is not a device that magically makes any water drinkable (non-drinkable water into drinkable water) and it works only if it’s installed on water that complies with the basic norms, e.g. municipal potable water or well water that was previously made drinkable with adequate and effective systems, preventively studied and personalized for that kind of water. Do not use the system where the water is microbiologically dangerous or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before and after the system. All systems must be installed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. In case of potable inlet water of bad quality, it’s recommended to close all the outgoing mineral salts regulator (TDS) and to mount, as the last stage, a remineralizing filter that stabilizes the PH.
