3013 RO Housing – Durable Plastic Membrane Vessel
The 3013 RO housing is a strong plastic pressure vessel built to hold standard 3″ × 13″ RO membrane elements securely for effective water purification. This 3013 membrane vessel offers reliable performance in home and light commercial reverse osmosis systems, where consistent drinking water quality matters. Moreover, its corrosion‑resistant construction helps ensure long‑term use without frequent maintenance.
How the 3013 RO Housing Works
In an RO system, feed water enters the 3013 RO housing under pressure. First, the membrane inside this vessel purifies water by removing dissolved salts and contaminants. Then, purified water (permeate) exits through the center port, while concentrated waste (reject) leaves via a separate outlet. Because this design uses standard ports and threading, it integrates easily with common RO plumbing setups.
Comprehensive Technical Specifications
Here are the full specs for the 3013 RO housing:
- Compatible Membrane Size: 3″ × 13″ (3013)
- Housing Type: Plastic pressure vessel
- Housing Material: Corrosion‑resistant engineered plastic
- Maximum Operating Pressure: up to ~125 PSI typical domestic rating
- Operating Temperature Range: approx. 4 °C – 38 °C (40 °F – 100 °F)
- Connections: Standard threaded inlet, permeate, and drain ports (often 1/4″ or 3/8″ NPT depending on setup)
- O‑Rings: EPDM seals for leak‑resistant performance
- Dimensions (Typical): ~110 mm diameter x ~358 mm length
- Weight: Varies by model, generally lightweight and easy to handle
These specs make the 3013 membrane vessel a solid choice for systems using standard 3013 RO membranes and help maintain consistent, pure water output.
