Hello! Tell me or give a link where to read.

The situation is this: the reverse osmosis accumulator ordered to live for a long time (the membrane passed - water flowed from the spool). I asked myself this question: what if I put a hydraulic accumulator there from the pump station? I’ll turn out the corresponding adapter, pump up less pressure ... What do you think will work?

The advantages of such a hydraulic accumulator: more volume, lower price, repaired (you can replace the membrane). What do you think?

In theory, it should work, especially if you make a suitable adapter. The only question is the pressure that you are going to make less, it should not be below the limit mark stated in the technical specifications.
I repaired reverse osmosis filters several times with a similar problem. The membrane of the water shutoff valve is deformed due to the strong pressure of the water, so if you adjust it, the problem is eliminated.
