Axeon N-8000 Reverse Osmosis System | 220V 8,000 GPD

The N-8000 adds a fourth membrane vessel to the N-6000's triple array, stepping output up to 8,000 GPD at 5.56 GPM versus 4.16 GPM. System recovery also improves — 65% on the N-8000 versus 58% on the N-6000 — making it the most water-efficient model in the compact N-Series tier. Both models share the same 2 HP pump, 11.0A electrical draw, 32 × 24 × 55 in frame, and 1" FNPT connections, so a facility already running the N-6000 can upgrade with minimal infrastructure changes.

Yes — the AXEON XE1-Series membrane elements have a maximum free chlorine tolerance of 0 ppm. Chlorinated municipal tap water will degrade the membranes if fed directly into the system. A carbon block or catalytic carbon pre-filter stage must be installed upstream before the N-8000.

System recovery is the percentage of feed water that becomes purified permeate output. At 65% recovery, the N-8000 converts 65 gallons of every 100 gallons fed into the system into purified water — sending only 35 gallons to drain. Compared to the N-2000's 32% recovery, the N-8000 is roughly twice as water-efficient per gallon produced, which meaningfully reduces water costs at commercial scale.

The N-8000 runs on 220V single-phase power at 11.0A and 60 Hz. All three ports — feed, permeate, and concentrate — use 1" FNPT connections. Have a licensed electrician confirm your panel supports a dedicated 220V/11A circuit before installation. The system ships pre-plumbed, pre-wired, and fully assembled with no field work required beyond making connections.

The 5-micron SDF-Series sediment pre-filter should be inspected monthly and replaced every 3–6 months depending on source water quality. The four XE1-Series membrane elements typically last 2–3 years under normal commercial use. Use the AX-8000's real-time TDS monitoring to track membrane performance — a sustained rise in permeate TDS is the primary indicator that replacement is due.

Yes — the AXEON N-Series continues with the N-12000 and N-16000, both running on 220V with the same AX-8000 controller. These models step up to 6-vessel and 8-vessel arrays respectively, with a minimum concentrate flow requirement of 6 GPM, so verify your drain capacity before upgrading.
