4-Stage RO/DI System for Reef, Saltwater, and Freshwater Aquariums
The IceCap 75 GPD RO/DI System is a four-stage water filtration unit that produces purified water suitable for reef, saltwater, and freshwater aquariums. It connects to a standard cold water supply line and operates on household water pressure with no pump or power source required. At 75 gallons per day output, it is the entry-level model in the IceCap RO/DI line and is well suited to hobbyists with smaller systems who fill or top off regularly.
The system filters water through four stages in sequence. Stage 1 is a 5-micron IceCap polypropylene sediment filter that removes particulates and suspended solids that would foul the membrane. Stage 2 is a 5-micron IceCap carbon block filter that removes chlorine, chloramines, and organic compounds that degrade RO membrane performance. Stage 3 is the Dow Filmtec BW60-1812-75 reverse osmosis membrane, rated at 96 to 99% typical salt rejection at 50 PSI. Stage 4 is a refillable mixed-bed DI resin cartridge that polishes RO permeate to near-zero TDS. The color-changing resin transitions from dark to light as capacity is exhausted, giving a clear visual indicator of when refilling is needed.
The system includes an auto shut-off valve, a manual flush flow restrictor, a glycerin-filled pressure gauge, and all installation fittings and tubing.
Key Features:
- Four-stage filtration: sediment, carbon block, Dow Filmtec RO membrane, mixed-bed DI resin.
- Dow Filmtec BW60-1812-75 membrane provides 96 to 99% typical salt rejection at 50 PSI.
- Refillable DI cartridge with color-changing resin provides a visual indicator of resin exhaustion.
- Auto shut-off valve stops feed water when the product container is full.
- Manual flush flow restrictor for routine membrane maintenance.
- No power source required; runs on 50 to 80 PSI household water pressure.
- Standard 10" canisters and 1/4" push-connect fittings for easy filter replacement.
- Glycerin-filled pressure gauge included.
- 3:1 waste-to-product ratio.
Ideal For:
- Hobbyists with smaller reef, saltwater, or freshwater systems who want a reliable home RO/DI source.
- ATO top-off systems where purified water is added daily on smaller tank setups.
- Installations where supply pressure is reliably between 50 and 80 PSI without a booster pump.
- First-time RO/DI buyers looking for the most affordable entry point in the IceCap line.
