Glamorca RO1 Reverse Osmosis System

The Glamorca RO1 purifies cold tap water through sediment filtration, two activated-carbon stages, a reverse-osmosis membrane and a final deionisation cartridge.

The system is particularly suitable for reef aquariums requiring consistent, low-contaminant source water for salt mixing and evaporation replacement. It can also be used for freshwater aquariums when the purified water is remineralised to the requirements of the livestock.

Filtration stages

1. 5-micron sediment cartridge
2. Activated-carbon cartridge
3. Carbon-block cartridge
4. Reverse-osmosis membrane
5. Deionisation cartridge

The final DI stage removes residual ions that may pass through the RO membrane, helping produce water suitable for demanding reef aquariums.

Installation and use

1. Install the system near a cold-water connection and drain.
2. Connect the feed-water adapter and drain clamp.
3. Push every 1/4″ tube fully into the correct quick connector.
4. Position the leak sensor below the system.
5. Direct the purified-water tube into a clean collection container.
6. Open the water supply slowly.
7. Check all connections for leaks.
8. Flush new cartridges according to the manual.
9. Monitor the product-water TDS.
10. Use the water only after flushing and confirming the required TDS.
11. Never leave an open collection container filling unattended.

Maintenance intervals

Approximate manufacturer recommendations:

• Sediment cartridge: every 4 months
• Activated-carbon cartridge: every 6 months
• Carbon-block cartridge: every 6 months
• RO membrane: every 12 months
• DI cartridge: when product-water TDS rises above the selected target [maxspect.co.uk], [aquariumsu...eszone.com]

Actual replacement frequency depends on source-water quality, pressure, temperature and total water production.
