REVERSE OSMOSIS
SYSTEMS

Understanding Reverse Osmosis

Reverse osmosis (RO) forces water through a semi-permeable membrane at pressure, blocking dissolved salts, heavy metals, PFAS, fluoride, nitrates, bacteria, and viruses — producing water that is up to 99% pure. Our systems use Crystal Quest®'s three proprietary membrane series:

THUNDER© — Freshwater Systems

The THUNDER© series handles municipal and well water with TDS below 2,000 ppm. Residential under-sink systems range from 10 to 17 stages of filtration. Industrial THUNDER© systems are available from 15 GPM to 360 GPM (21,600–518,400 GPD), skid-mounted and pre-wired for rapid installation.

VIPER© — Brackish Water Systems

Designed for water with TDS between 1,000 and 10,000 ppm. The VIPER© series offers capacities from 1,500 to 180,000 gallons per day with high recovery rates and minimal energy consumption. Engineered with stainless steel booster pumps and low-energy membranes.

SHARK© — Seawater Desalination

The SHARK© series handles seawater applications from 600 to 7,000 GPD using a 316 stainless plunger-type pump, corrosion-resistant aluminum frame, and fiberglass membrane housings. Energy recovery devices reduce operating costs significantly at scale.
