This automatic 1000 LPH industrial RO plant from New Vision Machines purifies up to 1000 litres of water per hour using four TFC membranes in FRP vessels with sand and activated-carbon pre-filtration, and it is listed at ₹1,19,000 in India with pan-India installation.
How it works, stage by stage: raw water first passes a multi-grade sand filter that removes suspended solids and turbidity, then an activated-carbon bed that takes out chlorine, taste and odour. An antiscalant dosing pump protects the membranes from scaling, a micron cartridge filter catches fine particles, and the high-pressure pump drives the water through four thin-film composite (TFC) reverse-osmosis membranes. Reject water is drained as brine; the purified stream runs through flow meters and pressure gauges on a single electrical control panel. Premium builds add a UV sterilizer and ozonation as post-treatment.
Why ₹1,19,000 is a fair price for 1000 LPH: the Indian market for 1000 LPH industrial RO plants currently spans roughly ₹85,000 at the entry level (manual and basic automatic FRP machines) to ₹2,00,000 for automatic stainless-steel machines with UV and ozonation. The cheapest machines buy fewer membranes and no dosing or post-treatment; the top of the band buys stainless construction, more membranes, UV plus ozone and full automation. This unit sits in the middle of that band as a fully automatic FRP machine with four membranes — the most common configuration for hotels, hospitals and packaged-water startups. A 500 LPH plant suits small clinics, restaurants and single-shift use with fewer membranes and a smaller footprint, while 2000 LPH plants step up membranes, pump power and panel complexity for bottling lines and process industries; prices for other capacities are quoted on request.
Recovery rate is the share of feed water that becomes purified output: at 50–65% recovery, every 100 litres of borewell water fed in yields 50–65 litres of product water, and the remaining 35–50 litres leave as reject (brine) to drain. Recovery falls as input TDS rises — on clean municipal water the plant runs near the top of the range; on hard borewell water it sits lower. Buyers comparing plants should compare recovery at the same input TDS, because a headline ‘70% recovery’ on low-TDS feed says nothing about borewell performance.
This plant is specified for borewell and bore water with input TDS up to 1000–1500 ppm, with 95–98% TDS rejection across the four membranes. If your borewell tests above 1500 ppm, share the water analysis before ordering — very high-TDS feed needs more pre-treatment or a higher-capacity membrane configuration, which is quoted separately.
Budget for consumables after installation: pre-filter cartridges are replaced most often, antiscalant dosing chemical is a running consumable, and the RO membranes themselves typically need replacement every 1–3 years depending on feed-water quality and how well the pre-treatment stages are maintained. A plant with a UV sterilizer adds lamp replacement to the list. Exact membrane prices move with the market, so ask for a current consumables schedule with the machine.
If the purified water will be packed or sold, plan the licences early: a packaged drinking-water unit in India needs BIS certification (the ISI mark) for the product and an FSSAI licence for the plant, plus periodic water testing by an accredited laboratory. Start the application paperwork in parallel with the machine order so the licences arrive as the plant is commissioned.
Items buyers should budget separately: a feed-water tank and a permeate (storage) tank, antiscalant chemical stock, a power line sized for the 3 HP pump load on 220V/50Hz, installation civil work at the site, and operator training on backwashing, dosing and panel operation.
If this plant feeds a packaging line, pair it with our automatic water pouch packing machine (https://www.newvisionmachines.com/shop/automatic-water-pouch-packing-machine-price-in-india), which fills 100–200 ml pouches at 1000 pouches per hour from RO-purified water.
