HRO-500 AND HRO-500C REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM
INTRODUCTION
Fig. 1
Features
• Four stage reverse osmosis system utilizing
standard incoming feed water pressure.
• No electricity or feed-side pump required.
• Ideal for high-volume, line-pressure applications.
• No hydraulic shut-off valve required.
•
Features a permeate pump powered by the
hydraulic energy of the brine water.
• The permeate pump optimizes system efficiency by
keeping the pressurized storage tank close to line
pressure, which allows large draws on demand.
• Dual carbon block or dual chloramines reduction
prefilters.
• Carbon/calcite postfilter.
• Compact wall-mounted frame. Easy to install with
quick connect fittings.
• Manufactured in the USA.

STARTUP PROCEDURE
1. System Preparation
A. Open product vent valves (1,Fig. 2) and brine valve (1,Fig. 3). The vent valves are the white bodies with
blue handles.
Fig. 2
Fig. 3
B. Verify feed (4, Fig. 3), drain (2, Fig. 3) , and product (3, Fig. 3) connections are correctly routed.
C. Close tank valve.
2. Brine-to-Product Ratio / Initial Membrane Flush The brine control valve has been pre-set at the factory. The dot
on the handle should match the dot on the frame. The following procedure will confirm the brine to product ratio
and flush the membrane.
A. Connect temporary drain tubing to product (3, Fig. 3) and brine vent valves (1, Fig. 3). Drain tubes should
be as short as possible for accurate brine and product flow rates.
B. Open feed valve (4, Fig. 3) and wait for air in the prefilters and membrane to be displaced.
C. Measure the flow rate from the product vent valve (3, Fig. 3) for 10-15 mins. It should be approximately 3
times the flow rate from the brine vent valve (1, Fig. 3).
D. Slowly open or close the Brine Control Valve Fig. 4, underside of frame, to adjust the ratio.

E. Allow water to flow from the temporary tubes until the membrane is flushed and TDS is stable.
F. Close the feed valve. Close the vent valves. Remove the temporary drain tubing.
3. Verify permeate pump performance.
A. Open feed valve.
4. Flush postfilter.
A. After tank has been filling for 10 minutes, open outlet to flush postfilter.
B. Close outlet and allow tank to fill.
C. Check for leaks after tank is full and pump has stopped.
