The MaxCap 1:1 UHE 200 GPD is the high-output sibling of our 100 GPD UHE system. Same microprocessor-controlled 1:1 waste ratio, same integral booster pump, same automatic membrane flush — just two SpectraSelect 100 GPD membranes in parallel for double the output. One gallon of waste for every gallon of ultrapure DI water, at 200 GPD. Same low-waste technology we use in commercial PSP systems.
Features
- Microprocessor UHE control module — 1:1 waste ratio with integral booster pump for low-pressure areas
- Automatic periodic pure-water membrane flush — first drop as clean as the last, no TDS creep
- 0.2-micron absolute ZetaZorb sediment pre-filter — 5× the dirt-holding capacity of a typical 0.5-micron filter
- 0.5-micron carbon block pre-filter with 20,000 ppm-gallon chlorine capacity
- Dual SpectraSelect hand-tested 98%+ rejection RO membranes (100 GPD each)
- Dual-stage SuperDI: MaxCap roughing DI + SilicaBuster finishing DI
- Two dual-probe inline TDS meters — monitor purity at every stage
- Pre-filters last 2–3× longer thanks to reduced waste flow
Specs
- Production: 200 GPD at 60 psi, 77 °F
- Waste ratio: 1:1 (run at 2:1 on very hard water to maximize membrane life)
- RO membranes: 2× SpectraSelect 98%+ rejection, hand-tested
- Pre-filtration: 0.2 µm absolute ZetaZorb + 0.5 µm carbon block
- DI cartridges: MaxCap + SilicaBuster SuperDI (high-capacity)
- Included: two dual-probe inline TDS meters, liquid-filled pressure gauge, dual electric float switches, filter wrench
- Warranty: 1 year
The UHE system fills an open-air pure-water reservoir (not included) using two float-level switches. The reservoir is required to fully automate the flush cycle — skipping that plumbing voids the warranty.

Cleaner water for plants, pets, and people
Reverse osmosis membranes reject microplastics, PFAS and "forever chemicals," chlorine and chloramine byproducts, heavy metals, and the dissolved solids that show up as taste and scale. That means cleaner feed water for your plants, animals, business, or family — and a lot less reliance on bottled water, which keeps plastic out of the landfill. Most setups run a 3:1 waste-to-product ratio on hard water and 2:1 on soft water, and can be tuned to 1:1 in high-purity feed areas or with a periodic pure-water flush. The system is built to last with field-serviceable filter housings, so you replace cartridges (not whole units) for years of dependable purity.
Note: DI water is not intended for drinking. DI resin is not made from food-grade material.
