RO-150 Reverse Osmosis System
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
The Hobart RO-150 filter system is designed for foodservice equipment where high quality water is essential. The
Hobart RO150 meets low water usage demands for steamers, combi-ovens, proofers, deck & rack ovens, and
misting systems. Ensure that the water demand of the equipment does not exceed six gallons per hour or a total
draw down of 13.5 gallons.
NOTE: The standard storage tank size is 20 gallon. Other sizes of storage tanks are available (up to 80 gallon).
NOTE: The RO-150 is intended only for water feeding the cooking equipment boiler or generator. A separate
condensate line not treated by the RO-150 must be installed on equipment if required.
Filter cartridge replacement is recommended at least every 4 - 6 months for moderate to low usage and 90 days
for high usage. The RO membrane should be replaced annually or when the removal of Total Dissolved Solids -
TDS becomes less than 80% efficient (determined by comparison testing of water supply and product water).
