PERATING PRINCIPLE

Potable tap water enters the SmartPak RO through the Booster Pump. The SmartPak RO (called ‘SmartPak’ for the remainder of this manual) combines Pretreatment and Reverse Osmosis (RO) purification technology. The SmartPak is a consumable device that needs to be periodically replaced during the maintenance of the system.

Tap water is pretreated to protect the RO membrane from organic fouling and chlorine oxidation. The RO membrane has 2 exiting streams. The ions, particles, organic molecules and bacteria rejected by the RO membrane are sent to the drain via the Reject tubing. The RO product water is stored in the tank for general rinsing applications, or it can be used to feed an ultrapure water purification system such as a

Milli-Q.

  • Can feed ultrapure water systems
  • Includes a display for monitoring water quality and system status
  • Has a keypad for accessing operating functions and system settings

Frequently Answers and Questions

What is the purpose of the RiOs 3 Water Purification System?
The RiOs 3 produces purified water from potable tap water by combining pretreatment and reverse osmosis (RO).
What are the water specifications of the RiOs 3?
The RiOs 3 produces RO water with ionic rejection greater than 94% and particle, micro-organism, and organic molecule rejection greater than 99%. A typical RO water flow rate is 3.5 LPH @ 25°C.
How often does the SmartPak need to be replaced?
The SmartPak will need to be replaced when the Pack Alarm display on the system is blinking.
How do I sanitize the tank?
To sanitize the tank, open the front cover, remove the vent filter, inject 200 ml (1 ml = 1 cc) of Hydrogen Peroxide solution (30%) into the tank, rinse the air vent port with 200 ml of purified water, and close the front cover. The system will now go into FILLING TANK mode. Let the Tank Level display go up to the 100% level, open the front cover again, and let the system stand for 1 hour for effective bacteria elimination. After 1 hour, open the Tank Outlet Valve to drain all the water from the tank, close the Tank Outlet Valve, and close the front cover. The system will now go into FILLING TANK mode. Repeat steps I, J, K and L once more to complete the process.
What are the environmental requirements for the RiOs 3?
The RiOs 3 should be used indoors only, with a storage temperature of 5°C to 40°C and an operating temperature of 5°C to 40°C. The relative humidity should not exceed 80% for temperatures below 31°C and should stay within 50% to 80% between 31°C and 40°C. The altitude should be less than 3000 meters.
