Engineered for production facilities, hospitals, casinos, government agencies, food & beverage manufacturers, semiconductor labs, and large-scale operations. Standard recovery rates from 29% up to 71% across the lineup mean you can balance throughput with feedwater conservation. Designed for feedwater up to 2,000 ppm TDS, with field-tunable recovery via the integrated concentrate recycle loop.
Built for Production-Scale Performance
The AXEON R1-Series ships fully equipped, skid-mounted, pre-plumbed, wired, and individually tested: ready to drop into your facility. With permeate flow rates from 1,800 to 21,600 gallons per day across 9 models, you get a system right-sized to your demand without paying for capacity you won’t use. Backed by an industrial 1-year limited warranty.
What Makes the R1-Series Different
20% More Energy Efficient
AXEON HF5-Series ultra-low-energy membranes paired with a Goulds® multi-stage stainless steel booster pump cut energy consumption by ~20% versus standard RO, meaningful savings at industrial flow rates.
Programmable S-150 Controller
LCD-backlit S-150 computer controller with pre-treatment lockout, tank-level input, low-pressure monitoring & alarm, TDS monitoring, feed flush, and hour meter, all built in as standard.
Skid-Mounted & Pre-Tested
Pre-plumbed, wired, assembled, and individually tested before shipping. Decreased footprint vs. standard RO systems, with components easily accessible for low-cost maintenance and servicing.
