RO/DI Booster pump pressure settings?

AcroSteve · 04/11/2006, 07:22 PM

I am just curious what pressure everybody with a booster pump on their RO/DI system runs.

These are adjustable, so you can pretty much pick your pressure. I have been running about 80-85 psi.

Post any reasons why you have chosen the pressure you use.

I did a search on this, but did not see any polls. So, if you use one, just give us a quick vote, please.

Any more booster pump users?

Although the systems ae tough, be careful jacking up the pressure over about 90 psi or so.

We've tested systems at >125 psi withot problems.
