ERP-500, Aqua Permeate Pump, 10-50 GPD w/clip, ERP500-CLP

Reliable Residential RO Aqua Permeate Pump for Enhanced Water Flow and Efficiency

Designed specifically for residential reverse osmosis systems, the ERP-500 Aqua Permeate Pump addresses common flow and pressure challenges that reduce water purification efficiency. Unlike standard pumps, this permeate pump uses hydraulic energy to boost output without additional electricity, making it an efficient and eco-friendly accessory. If you’re looking for a durable, easy-to-install solution to optimize your RO system’s performance, the ERP-500 stands out as a trusted choice among residential RO accessories.

Key Benefits

• Increases water production by improving permeate flow and reducing wastewater
• Enhances membrane lifespan by stabilizing pressure and minimizing back pressure
• Operates silently and without electricity, reducing energy costs
• Compact design with clip for easy installation in tight RO system spaces
• Durable construction ensures long-term reliability in residential water systems
• Compatible with a range of residential RO units producing 10-50 gallons per day

How It Works

The ERP-500 permeate pump harnesses hydraulic energy from the brine (waste) water line to power a diaphragm pump that pushes purified water (permeate) into your storage tank. This method reduces back pressure on the RO membrane, allowing it to filter water more efficiently. By using the energy from the reject water flow, it improves permeate output without any electrical power, which makes it environmentally friendly and cost-effective.

This pump is clipped neatly into your existing RO system plumbing, seamlessly boosting performance without complicated rewiring or electrical hookups.

What to Expect

Once installed, you’ll notice an immediate improvement in water flow to your RO storage tank. The pump reduces the time needed to fill your tank by increasing permeate pressure, so clean water is available faster. Over the first few weeks, your system will operate more efficiently, producing more purified water while minimizing waste.

With proper maintenance, the ERP-500 permeate pump offers consistent performance for years, requiring only occasional inspection to ensure clip fittings and tubing remain secure.

What’s Inside

• High-quality diaphragm pump – ensures smooth, silent operation and effective pressure boosting
• Durable polycarbonate housing – provides chemical resistance and longevity in water treatment setups
• Integrated mounting clip – allows secure attachment within compact residential RO systems
• Precision-engineered check valves – prevent backflow and maintain steady pressure
• Lightweight design – minimizes added strain on system components while fitting easily into existing plumbing

How to Use

1. Turn off the water supply and depressurize your RO system before installation.
2. Locate the permeate line and brine (waste) line on your RO unit.
3. Attach the pump inline between these two lines, ensuring correct flow direction as indicated on the pump.
4. Secure the pump using the integrated clip to prevent movement or vibrations.
5. Restore water supply and check all connections for leaks.
6. Allow the system to run for a cycle and observe improved permeate flow into your storage tank.
7. Perform routine checks every few months to ensure fittings remain tight and the pump operates quietly.

FAQ & Safety

Is the ERP-500 compatible with all residential RO systems?
It is compatible with most residential reverse osmosis units producing between 10 and 50 gallons per day; always verify flow rates and tubing sizes before installation.

Does the pump require electrical power?
No, the ERP-500 operates hydraulically using the energy from waste water flow and does not need electricity.

How often should I maintain the permeate pump?
Check connections and the mounting clip every 3-6 months to ensure secure fitting and clean operation.

Can the pump handle hard water conditions?
The durable materials used resist typical residential water conditions, but regular system maintenance is recommended to prevent scaling.

What if I experience leaks after installation?
Turn off water and inspect all tubing and fittings for tightness; retighten or reseat connections as needed.
