PAE Reverse Osmosis Tanks are constructed of FDA approved materials and undergo several quality tests for structural integrity to provide a reliable, long-lasting product. Built-in sealed brass air valves and o-ring sealed air valve caps ensure leak-free air chambers and eliminate the need to check air precharge.
What does the 14-gallon rating mean on the RO-1070-3/4?
A:
It is the tank’s nominal internal volume, not the amount of water delivered at the faucet. Usable drawdown depends on air precharge, RO shutoff pressure, feed pressure, and the system’s operating range.
Q:
What connection does the RO-1070-3/4 use?
A:
It uses a 3/4-inch male threaded connection. Match thread size and type, valve or fitting material, and the system’s required flow before ordering.
Q:
How much installation space is needed?
A:
Allow for the tank body plus the valve, tubing or piping, support, ventilation, and access to the air valve.
Q:
What air pressure should the tank have?
A:
Check precharge with the water side empty and use the tank or RO-system manufacturer’s setting. Do not adjust pressure while the tank contains water.
Q:
Why might the tank deliver less water than expected?
A:
Low feed pressure, incorrect precharge, high shutoff pressure, a restricted membrane or filters, a damaged diaphragm, or an undersized tank can reduce drawdown.
Q:
Can this tank be used with any RO system?
A:
The catalog lists: RO-1070-3/4, RO-LITE-180, RO-LITE-240, RO-LITE-360. Confirm the exact model and part number on your equipment before ordering RO-1070-3/4. Confirm maximum working pressure, connection size, required drawdown, available space, and whether the installation is residential or commercial.
