Thats your flow restrictor.
Ive got a 450 from collins, left it to run a few hours and it worked fine after that...


What seems odd is your waste/pure ratio, also i would personally think your tds should be lower....

Have you given lee a ring?(from collins) hes a pretty helpful guy...

Edit : if you havent got it sorted later i'll take a few photos of how mines plumbed.
Although its simple enough as they're in parallel

Bugger i ordered one last night from ebay lol!!!!

Ah well only £6 lol

It is producing water now, so i will take some reading today.

I havent called him yet, as like i say is anything wrong?

Reemeber its just tap pressure and i have 360 - 400 PPM tap water?

With my math i should be producing 12TDS pure upwards ? lol

Right

Pure rate has slowed down as has waste.

Pure is 25PPM and waste is 660PPM NON cloudy.

So i will let it produce all day and see what it does later

Thanks so far guys :)

Went to check it again and it's dropped to 20 PPM so that's good.

Decided to flush it for a few hours. Can't hurt lol

Leave it running mate, not on flush and it'll settle out after around 2hours (ish)

Think its a case of it getting out all the air and what ever else is knocking about when they're new

Been testing water production today and really happy with it.

TDS is around 15PPM

It's producing water at a rate of 1L per 1min 45 secs.

so 1000L in pretty much 24hrs.

Its only a temporary solution, but really happy with results.

Thanks to everyone that replied :)
