Hey everyone,
I'm having some issues with the booster pump on my ro/di unit. The unit is a 7 stage BRS 200 gallon per day and the booster pump is an aquatec 8800. The setup has been in place for two and a half years and the issue started today after changing my DI resins. The pump starts off working fine, the RO flush kicks on, it the RO flush off and it runs for about a minute. Then the booster pump shuts off, when it starts back up it sounds like there is no water flowing through it. Usually it makes a hissing noise when water is flowing through. I also notice that the pressure shoots way up to nearly 100psi when it comes back on. Over the past few months I've noticed on occasion I need to turn the pressure down because its gotten too high and the sound of the pump starts ramping up and down. I don't think these issues are related to clogged filters. All stages of the filter have been recently replaced, replaced everything including RO membranes in January, in July I did the carbon blocks and sediment filters again and today I did all three DI resins.
If anyone has any ideas on what the problem is or how to fix it, I appreciate the help!
