Product Information
Full details
The E-Chen EC-802-75 Diaphragm Booster Pump is designed for users of reverse osmosis systems experiencing low water pressure. Its key benefit is boosting water pressure by 5-6 bar, significantly improving RO system efficiency and output. A key consideration is that the pump's pressure output is not adjustable.

FAQs
What is the primary function of the E-Chen EC-802-75 pump?
Its primary function is to boost the incoming water pressure by 5-6 bar, which is crucial for improving the efficiency and water production rate of reverse osmosis systems, especially in areas with low water pressure.
Is the pressure output of this pump adjustable?
No, the pressure output of the E-Chen EC-802-75 is not adjustable. It is designed to provide a fixed boost of 5-6 bar.
What type of RO systems is this pump compatible with?
This pump is generally compatible with most standard reverse osmosis systems, particularly those designed for a 75 Gallons Per Day (GPD) output. Always ensure your specific RO system's requirements are met.
How much pressure does this pump add?
The pump is designed to add approximately 5-6 bar of pressure to your existing water supply.
Do I need a special power outlet for this pump?
The pump requires a standard electrical power source. Please refer to the product's specifications for voltage and amperage requirements to ensure compatibility with your local electrical system.
Can this pump be installed outdoors?
It is recommended to install the pump in a dry, protected environment. Exposure to the elements can damage the pump and its electrical components.
What should I do if the pump is making a strange noise?
Ensure the pump is securely mounted and check for any obstructions. Air in the lines can sometimes cause noise. If the noise is persistent and unusual, it may indicate an internal issue.
Troubleshooting
Pump does not turn on.
Verify the power connection is secure and the outlet is functioning. Check if there is sufficient water flow to activate the pump's pressure switch (if applicable) or internal mechanism.
Low water pressure even with the pump installed.
Check all plumbing connections for leaks. Ensure pre-filters in the RO system are not clogged. Confirm the pump is receiving adequate incoming water flow. Verify the pump is functioning and providing the expected 5-6 bar boost.
Pump is excessively noisy.
Ensure the pump is securely mounted and not vibrating against any surfaces. Check for air trapped in the lines or pump head. If noise persists, there may be an internal issue.
RO system produces less water than before.
Ensure the pump is functioning correctly and adding the expected pressure. Check the RO membrane for fouling or end-of-life. Verify that all system filters are clean and not impeding flow.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Improves RO system efficiency and water output.
- Provides a consistent and reliable pressure increase.
- Designed for standard 75GPD RO systems.
- Simple, non-adjustable operation for easy integration.
Cons
- Pressure output is not adjustable.
- Requires sufficient incoming water flow to operate effectively.
- May not be suitable for systems requiring highly specific or variable pressure.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Placement: Install the pump in a dry, protected location, preferably close to the main water supply and before the RO system's pre-filters.
- Connections: Connect the pump's inlet to the water source and the outlet to the RO system's input, ensuring all connections are secure and leak-free. Use appropriate fittings (typically 1/4" or 3/8" tubing depending on your system).
- Power: Connect the pump to a suitable power source. The pump requires power to operate.
- Testing: After installation, run water through the system to check for leaks and verify pump operation. The pump should activate when water flows through it and the RO system calls for water.
Compatibility:
- RO Systems: Primarily designed for Reverse Osmosis systems, especially those rated for 75 Gallons Per Day (GPD).
- Water Pressure: Effective when incoming water pressure is below the optimal range for your RO system. It adds 5-6 bar of pressure.
- Flow Rate: Ensure your water source can provide adequate flow to the pump for it to function correctly.
Care:
- Regular Checks: Periodically inspect the pump and its connections for any signs of leaks or damage.
- Environment: Keep the pump area clean and dry. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
- Filters: Ensure that the pre-filters of your RO system are clean and not clogged, as this can restrict flow to the pump and affect performance.
