Engineering summary from PDF text extraction for Flocon MC11. Verify every value with the OEM datasheet.
Summary
Product identification
Flocon® MC11 is a high pH formulation designed to remove organics, silt, and other particulate deposits from polyamide, polysulfone, and thin film composite membrane surfaces.
Description
- pH adjusted to 10.0 + 0.5
- Highly effective at ambient temperatures
- Contains no surfactants and is quickly rinsed away
- Contains detergent builders, chelating agents, and pH buffer
Application
Flocon MC11 is suitable for use with all polyamide, polysulfone, and thin film, composite membranes. It can be used at temperatures from 15°C (60°F) up to the maximum recommended by the membrane manufacturer.
The standard dilution ratio is 25 grams of Flocon MC11 per liter of water.
Cleaning Instructions
- Inspect cleaning tank, hoses, and cartridge filter. Install new filter elements.
- Fill cleaning tank with RO permeate.
- Slowly add 25 grams of Flocon MC11 for each liter of cleaning tank capacity.
- Thoroughly mix cleaning solution by using a mixer or by circulating it through the cleaning pump.
- The solution may be heated to improve cleaning effectiveness.
- Do not exceed the membrane manufacturer’s temperature limits.
- Circulate the solution through the membrane bank in the feed direction for one hour at the flow rate recommended by the membrane or system manufacturer.
Usage Guidelines
Consult with your BWA Water Additives representative to determine optimal dosage recommendations for your system.
Spiral Wound Membrane Flow Rates (per tube, parallel flow)
| Membrane Diameter (inches) | Flow Rate (l/min) | Flow Rate (US gallons/min) |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | 23 | 6 |
| 6 | 53 | 14 |
| 8 | 91 | 24 |

Hollow Fiber Membrane Flow Rates (per element, parallel flow)
| Membrane Diameter (inches) | Flow Rate (l/min) | Flow Rate (US gallons/min) |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | 19 | 5 |
| 8 | 57 | 15 |
| 10 | 76 | 20 |
For heavy fouling, the first return flow (up to 15% of the cleaning tank volume) should be diverted to drain to prevent redeposition of removed solids. In multi-pass systems, clean each pass separately for best results. Discard the solution if it becomes turbid or discolored; prepare a fresh solution before cleaning additional passes. Rinse with permeate before returning the system to service.
