Your operating pressure will depend on the type of membranes you are running in your unit.

Today, we see the use of high flow/low pressure membranes with an operating range of 110 to 150 PSI versus high pressure membranes traditionally used which operated from 200 to 250 PSI

You'll typically have a TFC membrane, and the system pressure maximum is usually because of the membrane housing. Stainless are 200, PVC are 175.

Our pump quit years ago and we just use city pressure of about 50 pounds.
