Crystal Quest S-150 RO Microprocessor Controller – Smart Automation & Protection for Reverse Osmosis Systems CQE-CV-S150E
The Crystal Quest S-150 RO Microprocessor Controller is a compact, intelligent control system designed to automate, monitor, and protect commercial reverse osmosis systems. Engineered with OEM flexibility in mind, the S-150 provides reliable system control, water quality monitoring, and equipment protection in one easy-to-use platform.
Ideal for commercial RO systems, light industrial applications, water treatment integrators, and OEM manufacturers, the S-150 helps simplify operation while improving system reliability and reducing manual oversight.
Complete Reverse Osmosis System Control
The S-150 continuously monitors key operating conditions and automatically controls critical reverse osmosis functions to help keep your system running efficiently. The controller manages:
• High-pressure RO pump operation — automated startup and shutdown control
• Inlet solenoid valve — regulates feedwater flow to the system
• Automatic membrane flush valve — helps maintain membrane performance and longevity
• Permeate divert valve — supports water quality management during operation
• Remote alarm outputs — alerts operators to system issues and operating conditions
Unlike many controllers in its class, the S-150 can directly operate a single-phase RO pump motor up to 1 HP without requiring external motor controls, simplifying installation and reducing system complexity.
Real-Time Water Quality Monitoring
The built-in display continuously provides system performance data, allowing operators to monitor critical RO parameters at a glance. Monitors:
• Permeate TDS and conductivity levels — real-time water quality tracking
• Water temperature — temperature-compensated monitoring for improved accuracy
• Operating hours — helps simplify maintenance scheduling
• System operating status — quick visibility into overall performance
• Alarm conditions and safety inputs — enhanced equipment protection
Intelligent Equipment Protection
The S-150 helps protect reverse osmosis equipment by monitoring important system conditions before damage occurs. Protection features include:
• Low feed pressure monitoring — helps prevent pump damage from insufficient water supply
• High pump pressure protection — safeguards critical RO components
• Pretreatment lockout integration — prevents operation when pretreatment systems are not functioning properly
• Storage tank level monitoring — automatically starts and stops production based on tank demand
Why Commercial Operators Choose the S-150
• Designed specifically for reverse osmosis systems — purpose-built RO automation and monitoring
• Direct 1 HP pump control capability — reduces the need for additional motor controls
• Real-time TDS and conductivity monitoring — continuous water quality visibility
• Automatic membrane flush functionality — supports membrane longevity and performance
