The Aquatic Life RO Buddie 50 GPD 4-stage (RO/DI) systems feature unbelievable affordability and functionality, all in a very compact design. Designed to provide a reliable source of economical filtered water for aquarium use, all systems use Thin-Film Composite (TFC) Membrane RO cartridges in conjunction with Carbon and Sediment cartridges to effectively and efficiently remove harmful substances such as heavy metal ions, dissolved solids (TDS), Chlorine and particulate matter from municipal tap water.

Features:
4 Stage (50 GPD + RO/DI):
-
AFFORDABLE DEIONIZED WATER – The AquaticLife RO Buddie is a 4-stage reverse osmosis deionization system designed for residential use. Use RO/DI filtered water for aquariums, humidifiers and more.
-
REDUCES TDS TO ZERO – This reverse osmosis water filtration system includes a Sediment, Carbon, Membrane, and DI Resin cartridge. The RO Membrane effectively removes up to 98 percent of the Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) in water. The remaining TDS is removed by the Resin.
-
EFFECTIVE SEDIMENT REMOVAL – The 5-micron Sediment filter captures and reduces unwanted particulate material such as sand, silt, and rust from water which affect the taste and appearance of your water.
-
CARBON FILTER REDUCES CHLORINE – The second stage of your reverse osmosis water filter is a Carbon Block filter. The 5-micron activated carbon filter reduces chlorine and conditions the water prior to the RO membrane filter.
-
COLOR-CHANGING DEIONIZATION (For 4 stage) – The color-changing deionization mixed-bed resin is necessary to reduce TDS to zero in the final stage of an RO/DI system. It uses Cation and Anion beads to remove TDS from the membrane filtered water.
RO Buddie 4 Stage 0 TDS RO/DI is one of the most sold unit in India, it has been very successful in major cities including in Kolkata, Bangalore, Delhi, Mumbai and various other parts of India, not limited to aquarium but also in various industries such as Blood Test Lab, Soap Industry, Cosmetic Industry and many such diverse applications. RO Buddie 4 Stage has outperformed most commercial system available in India with membrane not changed for more than 5 years of rigorous use and still producing 0 TDS water at a very cheap and effective cost.

Notes:
These notes are written by aquascaping.in with many years of experience on selling Aquatic Life USA products and long term feedback from the customers, this is at all useful for you might save you time and efforts and also increase the life of your RO System or give you a better performance:
Case 1:
There is lot of sedimentation in the water such as brown particles which is usually due to high iron in water, or dust which is due to high contamination in tap water
-
In such case we have faced issue and feedback from mainly Kolkata (West Bengal) and well as some other parts of India that there is high sedimentation due to Iron, it it highly recommended to install a Pre Filter Single Clear 10-Inch Canister w/Tubing, this will pre filter all the sediments but also is very economical compared to changing the cartridge of the system, hence increasing the light of your RO system as well as adding another layer of filtration. Note: This is not needed if you water is not high in iron or dust.
Case 2:
Some hobbyists want to remove remove Chloramine & Chlorine directly from water via RO system, specially hobbyist who have sensitive fishes / shrimps:
Case 3:
I have very high TDS water, above 1800 TDS, will this system work ?
-
We have successfully installed RO systems in areas such as Chennai and many parts of Gujrat which have very high TDS sometimes even above > 2000 TDS, our experience has been good, but you should be mentally prepared that the the membrane life will shorten, and it is very highly recommended to use a pre filter Single Clear 10-Inch Canister w/Tubing . Usually in Chennai membrane lasts for about 2-2.5 years without high impact. Now for 0 TDS we definitely mentally prepare the client for higher Di resin usage compared to any other areas in India, but you will surely get 0 TDS water consistently.
