Do you mean for an RO? We tried one on a Merlin. It went bang.

A 100PSI pump may create to much pressure as it tries to force water through the membrane the pump pressure switch may kick in stopping the pump. You may be better of looking at a smaller PSI pump or look at a static RO management system.
