The Merlin is a point of use reverse osmosis system that provides
continuous, on-demand water. It features a breakthrough high
flow-rate technology developed by GE Infrastructure Water & Process
Technologies. The Merlin RO system is designed for residential use
and light commercial applications including:
• Restaurants
• Coffee Shops
• Aquariums
• Grocery Misters.
The Merlin system is the most revolutionary innovation in point-of-use
RO technology since the first such units were introduced. Water
treatment professionals can now offer their residential and light
commercial customers an exclusive improvement over other water
purification methods.
SYSTEM PERFORMANCE
The Merlin uses a new, patented membrane element technology that
provides flow rates up to five times greater than standard home RO
membranes. The membrane element is designed to work from 40-80
psi (2.7-5.5 bar) inlet water pressure and 40-100°F (4.4-37.8°C) water
temperature. The Merlin performs better as pressure and temperature
increase. Ideally, pressures will be higher than 50 psi (3.4 bar) and
temperatures will be higher than 50°F (10°C).
Merlin Reverse Osmosis (RO) Drinking Water System is a water
treatment unit. It uses water pressure to reverse a natural physical
process called osmosis. Water, under pressure, is forced through a semipermeable
membrane to filter out minerals and impurities. Treated
drinking water goes to the faucet. Minerals and impurities are sent to the
drain with RO waste water.
The system includes replaceable filters and membrane elements. The
prefilter reduces sand, silt, dirt, rust particles, other sediments, and
chlorine from the water supply before they enter the RO membrane
elements. The postfilter reduces any tastes and/or odors that may remain
in the water after passing through the RO membrane elements.
