Aquaphor Professional APRO-1000-Black is a high-performance commercial reverse osmosis system designed for industrial-scale water purification. Thanks to its low-pressure membranes, it provides a continuous flow of perfectly clean water, up to 1000 liters per hour, into an open tank. This system is a powerful and reliable solution for large businesses, production lines, and facilities with very high water consumption, where both quality and energy efficiency are crucial.
Key Features and Benefits
- Exceptional Performance: The system is capable of purifying up to 1000 liters of water per hour, making it one of the most powerful in its category. This guarantees an uninterrupted supply of clean water, even during peak demand.
- Energy Efficiency: By utilizing low-pressure membranes, the system consumes less energy compared to traditional high-pressure units, helping to reduce operational costs.
- Maximum Purification: Equipped with four 4040 reverse osmosis membranes, the Aquaphor APRO-1000-Black removes up to 98-99% of all contaminants, including hard salts, heavy metals, organic compounds, bacteria, and viruses.
Multi-Stage Purification System
- Dual Prefiltration: Incoming water first passes through two Aquaphor Gross 20" filters with polypropylene cartridges. The first cartridge with a 20-micron rating removes large mechanical impurities, while the second, at 5 microns, captures finer particles. This stage protects the membranes and extends their service life.
- Reverse Osmosis: Water is then forced through four low-pressure membranes, where the primary purification takes place, trapping the majority of contaminants at a molecular level.
- Reliable Components: The system's construction uses high-quality components from leading global manufacturers, such as a Grundfos pump and John Guest high-pressure fittings, ensuring exceptional durability and stable operation.
- Smart Control: The system features automatic flow regulation, hydraulic flushing, and a dual-channel TDS meter for continuous, real-time water quality monitoring.
- Durable and Compact Design: The body is made of steel with a polymer coating for maximum strength and corrosion resistance. Despite its high power, the system's dimensions remain relatively compact for this class of equipment.
- Easy Connection: The system has standard connections for inlet, outlet, and drain (3/4” x 1/2” x 1/2”).
- Manufactured in the EU: Aquaphor APRO-1000-Black is produced in the EU, guaranteeing compliance with the strictest European quality standards.
