I bought this system used, and I think it was set up incorrect. Can someone tell me where are the tubes coming out of the ro membrane go, One is white and the other one is black. one of the outlets on the RO is in the middle and the other one is rite next to it. Thanx in advance.

I turned it on and I see a Lot of water coming out from what's supposed to be the pure ro water outlet to the tank, but I know it should be dripping not pouring out. so I switched out the tubes from the top of the ro canister on top (the one sideways) and then It started dripping. So I just wanted to know if what I did was correct.

You should have three cables coming out of the system - DRAIN, PURE & FAUCET.

If its your first time using the system you will need to flush it for 10 minutes by opening the Fast Flush, and DI Bypass. Once ready to make RODI you will close the fast flush and DI bypass and should achieve a drip.

I have the Typhoon III 75GPD

The guy before me had the black tube from the top of the ro (the flush) connected to the middle of the ro membrane and the white one connected to the same ro but there is another openning a little on side right next to the flush tube. so i was getting dripping from the flush tube and water come out a lot from the pure ro tube which I know that wasn't correct, so i switched them and now i'm getting what makes a little sense dripping from the pure and a lot of water from the waste

This next pic is the water out. The last stage is the DI piece. You can either make just RO in which case your water out comes from the RO membrane or you can make RO/DI and the output comes from the last stage pictured here.
