Russ, got a question for you:
I've got a system with a 75 GPD membrane (Your 75GPD MAXR membrane). Water into the system is softened, and has a booster pump to bring the pressure up to 90psi. Permeate goes through a permeate pump into an 11 gallon capacity pressure storage tank. Booster pump and feedwater solenoid are tripped by a pressure switch on the storage tank, 40/60 psi.
I've got one of your flush valves on it, with (if I remember right) a blue restrictor in it. I get a consistent 98% rejection rate according to my TDS meter.
Could I use a smaller restrictor to generate less concentrate? I know I'll shorten the life of the membrane, but if I have to swap it out every 1-2 years it's not the end of the world.
