80S15

Summary

Product identification

The CodeLine 80S15 Fiberglass RO Pressure Vessel is designed for continuous, long-term use as a housing for reverse osmosis membrane elements. It accommodates any make of eight-inch nominal diameter spiral-wound elements. The vessel is designed for desalting typical brackish waters.

Operating limits

• Design Pressure: 150 PSIG (1.0 MPa) at 190°F (88°C)
• Min. Operating Temperature: 20°F (-7°C)
• Factory Test Pressure (CE): 225 PSIG (1.6 MPa)
• Factory Test Pressure (ASME): 165 PSIG (1.13 MPa)
• Qualification Pressure: 900 PSI (6.2 MPa)
• Maximum Permeate Pressure: 125 psi (0.86 MPa) at 190°F (88°C)
• pH Range: 3-10

Mechanical / Hydraulic

Dimensions & Weight

The vessel is available in several length codes, with corresponding dimensions and approximate weights. See the official PDF for exact tabulated values. An example for length code -1:

• Length L: 59.15 IN (1502 MM)
• P: 47 IN (1194 MM)
• S: 23X1 IN (588 MM)

Installation & Maintenance Precautions

• Mount the shell on horizontal members at span “S” using furnished compliant vessel supports; tighten hold down straps snug.
• Align and center side ports with the manifold header.
• Use flexible type grooved-end pipe couplings (e.g., Victaulic® Style 77 or equal) at side ports, allowing a 0.125 inch gap.
• Provide flexibility in piping manifolds to accommodate vessel expansion under pressure.
• Provide overpressure protection for the vessel, set at not more than 105% of design pressure.
• Inspect end closures regularly; replace deteriorated components and correct causes of corrosion.
• Lubricate seals sparingly with non-petroleum based lubricants (e.g., Parker Super O-lube®, Glycerin, or suitable silicone-based lubricants).
• Do not work on any component until pressure is relieved from the vessel.
• Do not make rigid piping connections to ports or clamp the vessel in a way that resists the growth of the fiberglass shell under pressure.
• Do not hang piping manifolds from ports or use the vessel to support other components.
• Do not tighten Permeate Port connections more than one turn past hand tight.
• Do not operate the vessel without connecting both Permeate Ports internally to the complete set of elements or otherwise plugging ports internally.
• Do not install a Spacer on the downstream end of the vessel.
• Do not operate the vessel without the Thrust Cone installed downstream.
• Do not pressurize the vessel until verifying that the Locking Ring is in place and fully seated.
• Do not operate the vessel at pressure and temperature in excess of its rating or outside the specified pH range.
• Do not tolerate leaks or allow end closures to be routinely wetted.
