RO Storage Tanks

Reverse Osmosis systems require a storage tank to accumulate water for immediate use. The RO process operates relatively slowly, producing just over 4 millilitres per second.

 

It is crucial to select an appropriate-sized storage tank. The tank's volume represents the instantaneously available water on hand, refilling at 16 litres per hour, or approximately 2.5 litres every 10 minutes. In most cases, a 4-litre tank suffices.

 

To determine the suitable tank size, consider the maximum volume of water intended to be used within 30 minutes and the available space for tank storage. Let's assume a requirement of 3 litres every 30 minutes. In this scenario, the minimum size tank required would be the 4-litre tank.

 

If a refilling time exceeding 16 litres per hour is necessary, factor in the 16-litre-per-hour refilling rate when determining the appropriate tank size. Should you require clarification or advice, do not hesitate to contact us.

Here are some examples:

 

 

  • If you need to fill a 2-litre water bottle four times daily, opt for a 4-litre storage tank.

  • Requiring 4 litres at once every 30 minutes necessitates a 4-litre storage tank.

  • For a demand of 6 litres at once every 30 minutes, a 6-litre storage tank is suitable.

  • A demand for 8 litres once every 30 minutes would require a 9-litre storage tank.

  • For a demand of 16 litres at once every hour, consider using two 9-litre storage tanks, totalling 18 litres.

  • Requiring 30 litres in 15 minutes every 2 hours calls for a 30-litre storage tank.

  • A need for 45 litres in 30 minutes every 3 hours would necessitate a 40-litre storage tank.

About us Modit specialises in identifying anomalies in mechanical & electrical products or systems and offering efficient, practical solutions often unavailable elsewhere. Our passion for excellence drives us to achieve specific targets, even when the sought after solution isn't readily accessible. Through our "Mod(ify)-it" approach, we tailor solutions to meet particular requirements. Other solutions are highly customised, exclusive, or not widely marketable. One of our flagship creations is the highly-tuned drinking water RO system, meticulously designed to specific requirements that can't be found off the shelf. Our commitment is to provide you with a waterwise, cost effective, high quality water filtration system that can be easily installed and maintained. Our product is engineered to deliver clean, revitalising, and safe drinking water on tap. Everyone deserves access to high quality water at negligible cost. With 13 extensive years of field experience in the commercial application of Reverse Osmosis systems, we have come to understand the importance of a tailored approach. We recognise the significance of post-RO remineralisation and the need for water usage reduction in the Reverse Osmosis process. We know that each water application requires specific parameter values for optimal performance, whether it's for drinking, coffee brewing, cleaning, or other purposes. For instance, the ideal water parameters for brewing coffee are different from those for general drinking water, ensuring the best extraction and equipment longevity. Our system traces its origins back to a journey sparked by personal curiosity. Initially developed for personal use, it quickly gained widespread acclaim due to its exceptional performance. However, its custom-tuned nature made it inaccessible for purchase. Recognising the demand, we're seizing the opportunity to make this outstanding system available to everyone.
