Ok question about used RO system

[Daddynemo30]

I got a used Spectra Pure model Eliminator 90 Ro system from my fiances new boss. It only has 2 lower canisters and 1 upper. I am completely ignorant to these units, but am going to do some more research tonight. But that being said, I always value feedback from those on this forum.
Is this a reef compatable ro unit? Ive seen on their website they also sell the DI add on unit. Is it feasable to use as a reef safe water filter. Does anyone else use this, or know enough about it to help me put it to use? I woll include this link as to the closest thing I see to my unit on their website, and also a picture of the unit i have. Super excited if i can use it, but not trying to get my hopes up too soon.
Side note we also have freshwater tanks so if i cant use on reef tank, I maybe could use it on freshwater.

The chamber to the left is a pre sediment filter. The chamber to the right is a carbon block filter. The chamber on top is the reverse osmosis filter.

This unit could be converted to your needs, but it needs a pressure gauge and a TDS meter to be effective. Depending on your incoming TDS and wether your local water supply, you may need a additional carbon block because of chloramine.

And yes need a DI chamber.

Awesome. Appreciate the details. Is it easier/more economical to buy from the manufacturer or is it a standard amongst most units. Can I run, say brs brand stuff with this one?

You can run any manufacturers membranes and sediment/carbon filters as long as they are 10"(which most are) TBH though spectrapure filters are top notch and I would suggest sticking with them

You can get a upgrade kit from BRS to add the extra carbon block and DI stage to your existing system.. looks like the one push fitting will need to be replaced also.

Perfect. Can finally make my own water soon.

this is what you need right here. replace only with spectrapure filters and membranes and you’ll be money ahead.
