REJECTION,RECOVERY AND FLOW RATES
R2-Series ReverseOsmosisSystems are designed to produce permeate water at the capacities
indicated in the“designbasis section” on page 19 of this manual. For example, the R2-6140 produces
6.25 gallons perminute of permeate water at the listed operating test conditions.
The amount of total dissolved solids (TDS) rejected by the membrane is expressed as a percentage. For
example, a 98.5% rejection rate means that 98.5% of total dissolved solids do not pass through the
membrane. To calculate the % rejection, use the following formula:

If any damage occurs to your system’s pump, a re-build kit is available. Contact your local dealer
or distributor and inform them of your system’s model and pump size.
MOUNTING
The free standing system should be bolted down in compliance with local regulation standards or
securely fastened.
MEMBRANE ELEMENTS
R2-Series reverse osmosis systems come pre-loaded with FILMTEC® LC LE membranes, unless
otherwise specified. General membrane element performance characteristics are listed on the following

SYSTEM PURGING
Carefully inspect your system before initial start-up. Check that all plumbing and electrical connections
are not loose or have not come undone during shipment. A User’s Manual, Test Results, and Filter
Housing Wrench will accompany your R2-Series Reverse Osmosis System.
NOTE: LEAVE THE POWER TO THE SYSTEM OFF FOR THIS PROCEDURE.
1. Redirect permeate water to the drain for this procedure.
2. Fully open the concentrate valve (Counter Clockwise). (Figure 1B, Page. 15)
3. Fully open the throttle valve (Counter Clockwise). (Figure 1B, Page. 15)
4. Press and hold the reset button on the controller for three seconds to activave the solenoid
bypass feature.
INITIAL START-UP
1. Maintain the permeate water line to drain for this
procedure.
2. Fully open the concentrate valve (Counter Clockwise).
