Why do silicone manufacturers recommend transparent silicone tubing as an excellent choice for water purifier connections?Although water disinfection reduces contaminants and heavy metals, it cannot completely
remove organic pollutants and heavy metal ions. Therefore, it is necessary to install a water purifier when using tap water.However, low-cost water purifiers often use inferior internal tubing materials, such as PP pipes or 304 stainless steel pipes.
In fact, high-quality water purifiers are best matched with odorless, non-toxic silicone tubing, as it is easy to replace later and relatively low in cost.Transparent silicone tubing features high and low temperature resistance, acid and alkali resistance, non-toxicity, odorlessness, and high transparency, making it an ideal choice for conveying water, liquids and other media in beverage and food machinery.
In addition, water treatment mainly uses ultrafiltration membrane technology and RO reverse osmosis technology.The key difference is that RO membrane has 10 times higher filtration precision than ultrafiltration: ultrafiltration precision is 0.001 μm, while RO reverse osmosis precision is 0.0001 μm.Each has its own advantages: ultrafiltration removes impurities while retaining trace elements and providing high flow rate; RO can filter out almost all dissolved substances in water, offering higher safety for drinking water.
