The Tap Master UV
Reverse
Osmosis System
comes
fully assembled with everything found in the standard Tap Master Reverse Osmosis
System with the addition of an Ultraviolet Light filter hermetically sealed in a
hardened quartz tube mounted inside an injection molded UV resistant,
polypropylene housing. The filter is connected to an electronic transformer,
with an audible alert to notify you that the UV bulb has burnt out and is no
longer actively sterilizing which is then connected to your household electric
plug. The unit features an audible alert when the UV filter needs to be
replaced, and a soft blue glow can be seen at the end of the UV filter when the
unit is operating.
The steady water flow from a
typical home RO system will take about 40 seconds to fill a pitcher or large
spaghetti pot. This level of performance was unacceptable to our team of
hydro-technologists, so we devised a Fast
Flow RO! kit for the Tap Master Reverse Osmosis System which effectively
doubles the water flow from your RO sink spigot! We never stop searching for new
ways to satisfy!
One thing you will notice about the
Tap Master Series Reverse Osmosis systems is that our filters are incorporated
into the filter housing, so that when it comes time for the annual filter
change, the filter, and the entire filter housing, are disposed of. This is to
reduce the possibility of leaks under your sink. The leading competitors
canister type RO system keeps the same filter housing year after year,
subjecting it to constant high water pressure, water erosion, and wear from
maintenance. Only the filter element is changed. After about 5 years the walls
and seals of the competitors canister filter housing can begin to weaken and
decay, eventually failing, potentially causing serious water damage to your
home. Advantage Tap Master RO!
The second thing you should notice
about the Tap Master Reverse Osmosis system is the high grade filters designed
to yield a year or more worth of purified water, with both carbon stages made
from coconut shell carbon, and filtration down to 5-microns. The competition
typically uses lower grade filters made from less effective coal carbon with one
5-micron filter and one 10-micron filter. Advantage Tap Master RO!
In designing the Tap Master Series
Reverse Osmosis Systems a sophisticated combination of flow restriction
components were integrated into the system architecture to regulate pressure to
and from the 50 gallon per day membrane chamber for optimized water purification
and minimized waste water production. The most sophisticated components
certified to NSF (national science foundation) standards are included in the
design and construction of our products. For further system efficiency
improvement please consider a permeate
pump which will reduce waste water, increase water production, and provide
slightly cleaner water.
The Tap Master UV Reverse Osmosis
drinking water purification system is a premium product designed to convert your
tap water into pure, delicious drinking water. The advanced membrane used in the
Tap Master can safely eliminate up to 99% of microorganisms, dissolved solids,
metals, and harmful chemicals from your tap water.
The Tap Master UV Reverse Osmosis
System consists of two separate units connected by 3 feet of tubing for numerous
mounting options.
Dimensions: Purification
unit - 16 high x 8 wide x 5 deep; Reserve tank - 15 high x 11 diameter.

Advantages of the UV
sterilization
-
UV is more
effective against viruses than chlorine, without the use of chemicals or their
byproducts.
-
No change in
taste, odor, pH, conductivity or general chemistry of the water.
-
Immediate &
automatic treatment process
-
Annual lamp
replacement, no moving parts to wear out.
-
Audible Alert
indicates need to replace UV filter
How does UV
Disinfection work?
After the water has been
filtered down to a sub-micron level, it then enters an ultraviolet sterilization
chamber where any viruses, bacteria, mold, and other living microorganisms are
bombarded with special, intense light of a specific wavelength (254 um). The UV
light penetrates the cell walls of the organisms and attacks their DNA structure
leaving the organism dead or unable to reproduce - effectively neutralized. UV
technology is recognized by the EPA as one of four approved methods of
sterilizing water, and is preferable over the other three methods - chlorine,
iodine, and distillation - due to its instantaneous effect and the
fact that it does not leave any residual chemicals in
the water. The Tap Master UV module
operates for a full year at 32,000-microwatt
seconds/cm.
Factors Affecting
UV
The effectiveness of a
UV system in eliminating microbiological contamination is directly dependent on
the physical qualities and/or clarity of your water supply.
Suspended Solids
or particulate matter can cause a shielding problem in which a microbe may pass
through the UV filter without actually having any direct UV penetration. The
filters in Tap Master can remove up to 99% of suspended solids and particulate
matter. Please change your filters on schedule.
Iron/Manganese will cause
staining on the quartz sleeve that houses the UV bulb, at levels as low as 0.3
PPM of iron and 0.05 PPM of manganese. In this case, we recommend the Tap
Master ULTRA, which includes advanced iron filtration.
