Reverse Osmosis Equipment

What is the difference between commercial reverse osmosis equipment and industrial equipment

        In the years I have been in the water treatment industry, I have heard the most annoying sentence-"Isn't it all reverse osmosis equipment? How different can it be?""To put it bluntly, this is as outrageous as saying "Isn't it all cars, how different can Wuling be from Mercedes-Benz".Commercial and industrial reverse osmosis equipment look similar on the surface, but the things inside are very different.If you buy the wrong picture cheaply, it's not to save money, it's to burn money.


Commercial reverse osmosis equipment

  The amount of water produced is only the surface, the core is how long you let it run

  Many people ask about the amount of water produced as soon as they come up, as if the more water is produced, the better.Commercial aircraft are generally 0.25 to 1 ton per hour, and industrial motorized vehicles are only a few tons and dozens of tons going up.But this is not the point.The key is how many hours does your device run a day?Commercial ones may be used for a few hours during the day and shut down at night.What about industrial ones?It rotates continuously for 24 hours, 365 days a year without rest.If you take a commercial machine to carry out industrial work, you have to change it within three months.

  I encountered a real thing in Xi'an last year.In a car wash in the south of the city, the boss tried to save money and bought a commercial reverse osmosis equipment in Taiwan, saying that it was used to treat circulating water.As a result, the machine had to run for more than 12 hours a day, and the high-pressure pump burned in less than four months, and the membrane was blocked in a mess.He found me and asked what was going on. I said that the design life of your machine is not for you to use it like this.It cost more than 30.000 yuan to replace the whole set, which is more expensive than buying an industrial machine directly.Later, he changed to our DIEN's industrial machine, and it has been more than a year now, and nothing has happened.

  Accessories and materials, all the cheap ones are in this province

  To put it bluntly, the biggest difference between commercial and industrial machines is not in the host, but in the accessories.Many of the pumps, valves, and pipe fittings used in commercial machines are plastic or low-profile stainless steel, so long as they can be used.Industrial machines are different. The pumps have to be made of stainless steel, the valves have to withstand high pressure, and the pipelines have to be made of 316L stainless steel.Don't underestimate these things, it will come out after a gap of one or two years.   What is somewhat uncertain is that some manufacturers sell commercial machines as industrial machines by changing their shells. They look the same on the outside, but they are all reduced inside.I have seen too many such things.Anyway, in the cases I have seen, nine out of ten of the problems are that the accessories can't be carried first.

  Industrial reverse osmosis equipment

  The control system is not a bit bad

  The control of a commercial machine is basically a switch, which is turned on and off, and it's over.Industrial machines have to have pressure protection, flow monitoring, automatic cleaning, and fault alarm. It is much more complicated to set up.If you buy an industrial reverse osmosis equipment without automatic protection, the pressure is abnormal and no one cares about it, and the membrane will be scrapped in minutes.I can't say exactly how to choose this, but one thing is certain-the more rudimentary the control system, the more things you worry about later.

  When it comes to the price of reverse osmosis equipment, commercial use is indeed cheap, from a few thousand to 10.000 to 20.000. and industrial use often goes up by more than 100.000.But if you count the accounts, commercial machines can't carry the industrial work, and they have to be replaced in half a year. In addition, the loss of production is more expensive.Although our DIEN's industrial machines are more expensive, they are durable and can run for 24 hours. The cost per ton of water is actually lower.Are you using commercial or industrial machines in your factory now?Did anyone tell you these differences when they bought it?Let's talk in the comments area, let me help you see if you have stepped on the pit.
