RO-A Reverse Osmosis System

Reverse osmosis (RO) is an effective and economic way of removing minerals from water. The Condair RO-A has been developed specifically to provide operational, energy and maintenance benefits to Condair humidifiers.

By removing the minerals from a humidifier’s supply water, the limescale that builds-up in the system is virtually eliminated. This results in a much lower level of required maintenance in all types of humidifiers and reduced energy consumption in steam humidifiers. 

Steam humidifiers that run on mains water need to drain their steam cylinders occasionally to maintain a low mineral content and reduce limescale build-up. By using RO supply water, the steam cylinder does not require this regular drain. Therefore, it uses less energy to maintain the water’s temperature.

As the water temperature is consistent, the steam output is also consistent, thus improving humidity control. By using resistive steam humidifiers fed by RO water, ±1%RH control can be achieved.
