Title: Diy Parts Source Help - See List
Post by: Kwackers on September 11, 2007, 11:18:17 pm
Hello,

Attempting to source parts and build/mount a system to my van.

I'm sure i've missed a few bits off but i was thinking something along the lines of this:

100PSI pump & flowmaster unit
Pure Freedom 100GPD Reverse Osmosis System
Portable TDS meter
1000L IBC
Brush
Pole
400L Tank
Hose Reel
Microbore hose 50m
Battery 85-100amp

Where's the best place to get them from, and have i missed anything?

Would it be hard to convert it to a two man setup if needed in the future?

Thanks

yes sorry.

Also, i have a 1000L ibc as it is for jetwashing could i utilise this for the window cleaning, aswell as jetwashing.

I'm in the West Midlands, so how do i find out about the water, and go about water production?

Sorry for all the silly Questions

for the extra few quid, a 100 mtr hose and reel would be a great investment. Also an inline meter for your RO is a very handy investment (in addition to the handheld one). Try http://www.ro-man.com/shop/product_info.php/cPath/22/products_id/318 for one thats less than £100 inc vat, with a free inline meter.

To change to a 2 man setup you'll need another pump, flowmaster, hose and reel.

Pump strainer.  Essential on a tank system

The 100GPD RO is probably not up to giving you enough water. Gor for the 200 or 300 unit. If you buy an RO from Purefreedom they do a DI unit.. which you need for just over 20 quid with no extra carriage.

455 litres a Day it will be producing, i thought most people are using quite a bit less than that?

The 100gpd figure quoted only means that with the right pressure the unit is capable of producing 100gpd.

I have the 300gpd pure freedom unit along with their DI unit and with reasonably good mains pressure it only produces about 600 ltrs of pure water per day. That's only 132 gallons
