H20 600 gph 7.5 hp

[Windy Acres]

Ok so we are on the list to have a new RO delivered come december, my question is, does anyone have one of these with a single membrane, and if you do, what are your flow rates takind 2% to 8%, i want to be sure it will keep up with our evaporator, or fo i need to get a 2nd membrane, our evaporator does around 80 gph

I don't have one but I did look at them. I know my old D&G unit with a 5hp would keep up with that. So i am sure the H2O will. When I talked with them they said there 2 post would do 2-12 at 200gph to keep up with my rig.

I have the 600 econox with the 5 hp pump and routinely run at 540-600 gph with decent sap, bringing it to 8% or even 10%. I imagine it would be even better with the 7.5hp pump. Even at 400 gph you'll be pumping 100 gph of 8% concentrate to your evaporator, so you'll have no problem.

Hey there, ive been meaning to get over, my dad knows you, he helps down to the feed store, im glad to hear good things about the RO, we are having our service re-done, i will have 150 amps in the RO room, i need to get over and check out your operation!

Your set up looks nice i have been meaning to stop also.If you need any help or need to check out my ro just let me know.Make sure your transformer is not to far away when i put my 600 in i had nyseg assure me i had more than enough power.When i first fired it up i was browning everything out they blamed it on my electrician they were there 2 days straight and finally moved my transformer closer to my sap house.It was almost 1000 ft away.Now we got all kinds of power.

[Windy Acres]

im hoping we will be good to go, the transformer is around 100 yards from the sugar house, i would like to check out that RO sometime

Windy Acres, I have the H20 Econox with the 5 hp single membrane. I use a 3x10 that is about 80 gph. I start boiling when I have about 100 gallons conc. and tank stays same level till RO shuts down. Very nice fit for me.

Thanks everyone!

What pressure do you operate the ro at to get these flows?

I try to keep it under 500 p.s.i., the only time it gets close to that is when I'm double passing from 6% to 14-16% toward the end of the session.

I have had my H2O / 600 gph for 4 years now and could not be happier. I try to keep the pressure at 450 of less and bring it to between 8 and 10%. My 3x10 with hood and preheater does 100 gph and when I have 150 gallons of concentrate the RO will keep up with my evaporator.

Thanks everyone, what are the dimensions of the econox, im working on finishing off the ro room, and want to get as much done ahead of time as i can
