Building an R.O. Got a 4x40 membrane and was wondering if someone could recommend a good pump and possibly were to get it. Thanks.

Also a model # and some specs would be helpful. I see there are some on ebay.

Call FW Webbs and tell them what your doing. I had a pump that needed replacing and they got it for me cheaper then the big maple stores. I used a grundfos pump as that was what was on it. I can get the mdl number for you but mine wil be different as its runnng 3 4" membranes.
I have the new CDL catslog and see that goulds has a high pressure trans pump I have once wondered it this would have enough pressure to run a small single post RO. Some people making there own Ro are using procon pump from Atlantic ro. Joe at Atlantic can help you match up the correct flow. They have a website

I use fluid o tech as well. You can get a good deal at zoro tools for the motor. Marathon 3/4 hp clamp on with a coupon is a little over $100. Also , I would recommend a feed pump . I use a 1 hp shallow well pump and then a filter after the feed pump but before the high pressure pump.

Thanks for the imput. I found a procon beverage pump on ebay that looks like it might work. What about hoses from the pump to the r.o. vessel? Where can I get those. I have a shallow well pump and a filter.
