Need help with RO/DI unit

[Blackbeard23]

Hey all! I'm new to the SW hobby and just got handed some new RO/DI equipment but I honestly don't know what I'm looking at! Haha so if somebody who knows what this is please drop some knowledge for me. I've only just started looking into RO/DI systems so my knowledge is very limited with this stuff so I have some questions:
Is this just a DI setup?
Can I run this by itself?
Do I need to get a pressure tank?
What am I missing? (Obviously I'm missing the lines but any other key items)
Does anybody have any links to the items I need?
Last question. Could've been the first lol is it worth my time trying to set this thing up?
Thanks in advance for the input!

Need help with RO/DI unit

That is an RO/DI unit. What differs from this unit more commonly used is the small "piggy back" DI canister. I would suspect you will get a very limited lifespan out of such small canister.

You will need an adapter to either tap into a faucet or water hose adapter. If you can hook it up to a water source you should be good to go! I would highly recommend a TDS meter that at least monitors output water. If this unit has been sitting I would replace the sediment and carbon filters.

After a second look it looks like you have a new RO membrane(blue tube) and either a new sediment or carbon filter. I would change these first.

What am I missing? (Obviously I'm missing the lines but any other key items)I see a RO membrane, does it state the GPD rating on it? The flow restrictor on the black tubing should match. Also next to the RO membrane appears to be a carbon filter, is the Sediment filter in the canister? Is there DI resin in the piggy back canister? If so it may not be fresh. Do you have a TDS meter?
Does anybody have any links to the items I need?[COLOR="Red] A dual TDS meter [url]http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/dual-inline-tds-meter-dm-1-hm-digital.html[/url][/COLOR]

@mark75- can I get the hookups and water lines at a Home Depot or would I have to order them from an online store? I will use the extras to replace what is now in the unit as I do not know how long it has been sitting.

@gary- it doesn't state the Gpd or even he name of the unit anywhere. All the canisters are filled with their prospective media. I don't have a tds meter yet but I will be ordering one. Thanks for the link btw

You may find what you need at a home improvement store. I use a "y" where my cold line for the washer comes in. You will need a push lock to garden hose fitting.
