Classic DirectFlow 5-Stage R.O Water System with Pump & Blending Valve
The traditional 5-stage direct flow reverse osmosis (R.O) water systems with drop-in pre-filters are the newest members of our family. The systems were enginnered by our manufacturer by taking into account the new technological possibilities, the needs and trends that are needed in the EU market.
These R.O-Traditional direct flow water purifiers have 3 pre-filters that prepare the water for the 2 high-performance reverse osmosis membranes that are responsible for the production of extremely clean drinking water*. The main advantage of this system over other reverse osmosis water purifiers is that it works without a tank, so stagnant water is not a problem anymore. Also, the well-chosen pump & R.O membranes combination has significantly improved wastewater discharge (1:1).
The system can remove up to ~95 % of the contaminants from water using one of the world’s best water treating technology. Due to its 5 stage filtration system RO-Traditional removes a significant amount of chlorine and chlorine derivatives, odor and bad taste, viruses and bacteria and many other harmful substances such as heavy metal ions, total dissolved solids (TDS) from tap water making it tasty, fresh and vital.
The blending valve can help you to adjust your TDS levels to your desired value, depending from your needs. A TDS value between 80-150 ppm is recommended for an excellent quality drinking water.
*The quality of the purified water produced depends on water pressure, temperature and level of contamination as well.

5-Stage DirectFlow R.O Water Filtration System
- 5-micron PP sediment pre-filter to filter suspended particles such as dirt, sand, rust, etc.
- 1-micron PP sediment pre-filter to filter suspended particles such as dirt, sand, rust, etc.
- Carbon block filter to reduce free chlorine, chloramines, chlorine taste and odor.
- 1x or 2x High-production R.O. membranes to reduce dissolved solids, metal ions, bacteria & viruses and other suspended particles as small as 0.0001 micron.
- Post-carbon CTO filter for improved water taste.
A water conditioning/mineralisation combo post-filter can be added into the system for an extra cost.
Pressure Switches: The system is equipped with pressure switches. The low pressure switch shuts off the pump when there is no inlet water or its pressure is too low. The high pressure switch shuts off the pump when the filtered water faucet is turned off.
Booster pump: it offers the advantages of favorable wastewater-treated water ratio (about 1:1), operation in places with lower water pressure (smaller settlements, homesteads, 10th floor) and offers faster tank filling.
Faucet: Designer faucet for filtered water is included and usually mounted on the sink deck or countertop for dispensing the clean, filtered water from the filtered water outlet of the main R.O. unit.
Drain Saddle: Fits a standard 1.5” diameter drain pipe to drain the waste water from the drain outlet of the pump box.
Pre-Filters: The main R.O. unit has three pre-filters: two sediment pre-filter on the first stage and activated carbon pre-filter on the second stage. They provide initial filtration of the water and protect the following thin film composite R.O. membranes from dirt and aggressive chemicals such as chlorine often found in tap water.
R.O. membranes: The fourth & fifth main stages of the filtration are the high-production R.O. membranes (except the 400GPD system). They are “semi-permeable”, which means that it allows water to pass through but prevents dissolved particles from passing through. The membranrs split the feed water into two streams: clean water goes directly to the faucet. The waste water with rejected particles goes down the drain.
TDS Blending Valve: Many times there is the desire to raise the total dissolved solids (TDS) of our filtered water. This is due to the fact that the purified water produced by the reverse osmosis water systems have usually a TDS value of ~25-35 ppm. For the best drinking water quality and personal well-being it is recommended that the TDS value should be ~80-150ppm. To achieve a TDS value in that range we use a TDS blending (mixing) valve. The set-up of the blending valve is recommended to be set by a specialist when installing the water purifier.
TDS blending is incredibly simple and involves mixing your filtered water (water filtered by the first two pre-filters: GAC and sediment) with the R.O water to achieve a TDS that's desirable to your needs and taste. Since the water sytem already includes the two pre-filters, the feed line between the pre-filter system and the R.O pump is tapped and as mentioned above the filtered water (not raw water), is mixed/blend with the purified R.O water in order to produce the desired TDS value.
Post-Filter (Extra cost): This post-filter can be added after the R.O membranes and before the faucet at an extra cost. This activated carbon post-filter offers fine water conditioning and helps to keep the water extra fresh.
KEY FEATURES
- 5-stage filtration water system that you can easily add additional filters.
- Tankless function (No tank necessary).
- Pressure switches to start and turn off the system automatically.
- External power adapter.
- Reduces TDS by 20 times because of the large and high rejection rate membrane and more powerful pump.
- Clean and safe drinking water right in your home. No need to transport and dispose of bottled water any more.
- Pre-installed filters and membrane for faster and easier setup.
- Filters and membrane quick-change housings for easy maintenance.
- Compact design.
- Booster pump increases pressure to radically improve the performance and effectiveness of the R.O. unit in all three key areas: increases filtered water flow (production rate), increases rejection rate (improves water purification quality), increases recovery rate (decreases amount of waste water). Prolongs the membrane and pre-filter(s) service life due to increased recovery rate.
- Fully automatic operation of the water system: just open the faucet and get clean water instantly.
- Split, flexible installation possible where needed: install the faucet up to 15 meters away from the R.O. unit itself. Useful for the situations like lack of space or lack of electrical outlet under the sink or moving the unit to a more appropriate place.

It filters out 95% of the water! It collects only a few percent of these contaminants, while flushing almost all of the contaminants back into the sewer system! This is the best working water purification method in the world today!
