I hope this is the right place to post this; I did not see a forum for RO.
I am going to be using an RO membrane rated for 25 gpd (77° / 50 psi). After temperature correction the flow rate works out to 20 gpd @ 50psi but I will be running at 100 psi. The only pressure correction chart I found ( http://www.freedrinkingwater.com/faq.htm#MEMA) seems to indicate the pressure-corrected flow to be more than 40 gpd. I am wondering if anyone with actual experience thinks that sounds right.
The membrane is rated to 150 psi max and according to the manufacturer it will perform better at 100psi than 50 (fewer salts and better recovery rate).
Thanks
