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.
