Note: Vessels sold complete with End Plugs, U-Pins, Feed Plug and O-Rings. Mounting Pads and Straps not included. Membrane Interconnectors are sold separately.
Warning: PVC pressure vessels are limited to a maximum pressure of 200 psi (14 BAR) at 77°F (25°C). Higher pressure, higher temperature water or water hammer will lead to a premature failure. It is highly recommended that when these conditions exist, a pressure switch or relief valve be installed to protect the vessel. Alternately, you may consider a stainless steel or FRP vessel.

O-Ring Lubricant for Membrane Housings (Not Included)
Molykote 111 compound is the recommended o-ring lubricant for use in water filters and water treatment systems including reverse osmosis membranes & pressure vessels, and filter housings. The high gade silicone lubricant does not harm the membrane or downstream equipment typically used in reverse osmosis and water treatment systems.
