Puratek RODI
 
I bought off fellow reefer who shut it down week or two ago. I just hooked it up.
The di canister drains to about1/3 full and holds level there.
Is this normal

Why does the TDS meter read pp. and what does that mean

Thank you

the level is normal in that canister and I believe it is ppt.

Thanks jay.

I opened each canister while operating and purged out the air.
The digital display enough digits so it reads 00PP why they wouldn't add for the M is beyond me

+1. The level in my DI is only about an inch. Fluctuates a bit. I wonder if it will get higher as it "clogs"? Leon

I wonder if a pressure tank would be good idea

Does your Puratek have abooster pump? What pressures do you get? I am on Edmonton water supply with a booster pump and get 100psi on the gauge. Not sure if a pressure tank would be worth it.

Mine also only stays about an 1" of water. I have no booster pump and I get 100psi.

Proteus 03-28-2012 02:16 PM

Yeah it has booster. But pt might be good as larger reservoir

Pressure tanks work just fine, i have a few running off my 200GPD puratek, along with float switch in sump for ATO, and 2 50Gallon barrels for H2O Changes. I use the pressure tanks for fresh drinking water, under the sink in the kitchen, and under the sink at the wet bar, and one for the fridge, to make Ice

I'm getting about 125 psi
