Title: booster pump pressure
Post by: peekeclean on February 24, 2010, 11:22:22 pm

hi all i have a ro-man 300gpd ro with booster pump,it was set at about 60psi when i got it but someone on here(i think alex) said you can run it safe at 100psi so i have been.

not safe to run at 125psi as the joints on the ro systems start to give up and leak. >:(

I have a 125psi booster pump on my ROman RO unit at its fine.
The john guest fitting on the waste pipe will release any pressure higher than that.
Craig at Polarbrite as booster pumps in complete with john Guest fittings.

If you have a look at the label on the membrane housing it states not to exceed 125psi.
