“R.O.” is Reverse Osmosis. This is the
natural process which sets the foundation
of Microline® R.O. Systems. It may sound
technical, but osmosis is a natural, organic
phenomenon, a process that occurs in
nature on a continuous basis. Vegetation,
like trees, plants and flowers attain their
nutrients by using osmosis to draw water
from the soil.
The pressure from a household tap
forces water through a Microline®
semipermeable Membrane. This
Membrane separates the water at the
molecular
level. The Membrane acts
like a filter so that the Reverse Osmosis
water has substantially reduced dissolved
solids and impurities*. This cleaner, more
refined water is then stored in a holding
tank, ready at your convenience.
Thin Film Composite Membrane
(T.F.C.) is the technology of choice,
producing high quality drinking water
at a fast rate. Since T.F.C. Membranes
are not chlorine–resistant, the advanced
Microline® T.F.C. system features a
sediment–carbon prefilter. The carbon
prefilter is designed to reduce the
concentration of chlorine in feed water,
in order to protect the Membrane,
allowing T.F.C. systems to be installed on
both municipal and private well supplied
water systems.
With two models to choose from that
both incorporate special features,
Microline® offers a system to meet your
particular water needs. |
