The Bluevua ROPOT Lite is a countertop reverse osmosis drinking water system designed to provide easy access to clean, purified water without the need for plumbing or installation. Founded in 2021, Bluevua aims to simplify hydration with this user-friendly device, which also includes features to remind users to hydrate and capabilities for making fruit-infused water.
Function Description:
The ROPOT Lite system filters tap water through a 6-in-1 filter assembly, utilizing a multi-stage purification process. This process includes:
- 5 Micron Polypropylene Fabric: Removes larger particles like silt, sand, rust, and dirt.
- Coconut Shell Activated Carbon (CTO): Absorbs chlorine and chloramine.
- Food Grade RO Antiscalant: Eliminates mineral scale to prevent scaling and fouling of the RO membrane.
- 1 Micron Polypropylene Fabric: Removes smaller particles for further protection and to extend the RO membrane's lifetime.
- Reverse Osmosis Membrane: Removes lead, arsenic, bacteria, viruses, fluoride, pesticides, and other harmful contaminants.
- Post Carbon Filter: Improves water taste, providing pure, great-tasting drinking water.
The system produces pure water into a glass carafe, while reject water (containing concentrated contaminants) is retained in the raw water tank and should be discarded after each cycle. The device features a control panel with indicators for real-time filtered water quality (TDS/ppm), filter life, and water volume. It offers two volume options for dispensing water: 0.65L (half) and 1.2L (full).
Important Technical Specifications:
- Product Model: RO100ROPOT-Lite-Bluevua
- Product Size (LWH): 248mm * 340mm * 357mm
- Input Water Pressure: 0~30 PSI / 0~0.2 MPa
- Input Water Temperature: 41~100°F / 5~38°C
- Input Water Requirement: Tap Water
- Pure Water Rate: 0.26L Per Minute / 100 Gallon Per Day (measured under 30PSI and 25°C; actual rate may fluctuate with pressure and temperature)
- Power Specifications: Input 100~240V AC; Output 24V DC; 2.0A
- TDS Reduction: Typically 90-95% of TDS.
Usage Features:
- Easy Setup: Requires washing the water tank and carafe, placing the machine on a stable surface, and plugging it in.
- Flushing Process: Before initial use, the system requires four flushing cycles to remove protective liquid from the filter. Water during this process is not drinkable. The "Flush" button initiates this process and is the only active button during the initial flushing.
- Water-making Operation: Users fill the raw water tank with tap water, select the desired volume (0.65L or 1.2L) using the "Volume" button, and then touch the water-making button to start filtering.
- Real-time TDS Monitoring: The control panel displays the TDS level of filtered water, which may fluctuate initially before stabilizing.
- Error Codes: The system displays E1 if it continuously filters for more than 8 minutes (indicating a potential issue or need to reset) and E2 if it doesn't detect the floating ball or if the water level is below the minimum.
- Fruit-infused Water: The system includes a high borosilicate glass infuser basket to allow users to make fruit-infused water. The screw cap is removed by rotating counter-clockwise, fruits are added, and then the cap is closed by rotating clockwise.
- Hydration Reminders: An intuitive timeline from 8 AM to 6 PM reminds users to drink their recommended water intake throughout the day, suggesting refilling the carafe every hour to achieve 88 ounces daily.
Maintenance Features:
- Filter Replacement Cycle: The MAX Six-In-One filter is recommended for replacement every 12 months, though actual lifetime may vary based on water quality, season, and usage. The filter life indicator on the control panel reminds users when to change the filter.
- Filter Replacement Steps: Involves unplugging the unit, lifting the filter housing cover, twisting the expired filter counter-clockwise to remove, inserting the new filter by pushing down and twisting clockwise, and then replacing the cover. After replacement, a filter reset mode is entered by long-pressing the "Flush" and water-making buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds, followed by 4 flushing cycles to reset the filter's replacement cycle.
- Automatic Backflushing: The system automatically backflushes for 30 seconds under several circumstances: when powered on, before every filtration cycle, after every filtration cycle, and if unused for more than 24 hours. This helps extend filter life and maintain performance.
- Manual Backflushing: Users can manually trigger a 30-second backflushing cycle by touching the "Flush" button.
- Descaling: Limescale buildup can be addressed using a commercial descaling solution or DIY solutions like 50/50 white vinegar and water, 50/50 lemon juice and water, or 2 tablespoons of citric acid per quart of water. The process involves mixing the solution in the water tank, running a 1.2L filtration cycle, turning off the system midway to soak for an hour, pouring out the solution, and then running three tap water filtration cycles to rinse the system.
- Waste Water Management: The RO reject water in the tank should be discarded after each cycle to prevent contaminant accumulation and damage to the machine and filters. It can be saved for watering plants or mopping.
- Long-term Storage: If the unit will be unused for more than 24 hours, it will self-clean. For longer trips, it's recommended to unplug the system, store the filter in the refrigerator, and keep the unit in a cool, dry place to prevent microbial growth. The first round of filtered water after returning should not be consumed.
The Bluevua ROPOT Lite is designed for convenience, safety, and effective water purification, making clean drinking water accessible for daily use.
