CSM RE2011-LP

Summary

Product identification

These are low-pressure grade reverse osmosis (RO) elements for residential use.

• Model Name: RE 2011-LP
• Membrane type: Thin-Film Composite
• Membrane material: Polyamide (PA)
• Construction: Spiral-Wound, Tape Wrapping

Performance

• Permeate Flow Rate: 50 GPD (189 L/day)
• Salt Rejection: 93.0%
• Minimum Salt Rejection: 90.0%

Performance is based on data taken after 30 minutes of operation at the following test conditions:

• 100 mg/L NaCl solution
• 20 psig (0.14 MPa) applied pressure
• 15% recovery
• 77 °F (25 °C)
• pH 6.5–7.0

Dry elements are tested using the San Diego Protocol vacuum leak test. Dry elements are packaged in a polyethylene bag. Wet elements are packaged in a polyethylene bag containing NaHS + HCl (0.5 g/L) solution.

Operating limits

• Max. Operating Pressure: 125 psi (0.86 MPa)
• Max. Feed Flow Rate: 2 gpm (0.45 m³/hr)
• Max. Operating Temperature: 113 °F (45 °C)
• Operating pH Range: 2.0–11.0
• Max. Turbidity: 1.0 NTU
• Max. SDI (15 min): 5.0
• Max. Chlorine Concentration: < 0.1 mg/L

Mechanical / hydraulic

All measurements are in inches.

• A: 0.67
• B: 0.87
• C: 9.98
• D: 0.87
• E: 1.85

General Handling Procedures

• Elements in boxes must be kept dry at room temperature (7–32 °C; 40–95 °F) and should not be stored in direct sunlight.
• If the polyethylene bag is damaged, a new preservative solution (sodium bisulfite) must be added and air-tight sealed to prevent drying and biological growth.
• Permeate from the first hour of operation should be discarded to flush out the preservative solution.
• Elements should be immersed in a preservative solution during storage, shipping, and system shutdowns to prevent biological growth and freezing. The standard storage solution contains 1% by weight sodium bisulfite or sodium metabisulfite (food grade). For short-term storage (one week or less), 1% by weight sodium metabisulfite solution is adequate.
• Keep elements moist at all times after initial wetting.
• Only use chemicals compatible with the membrane elements and components. Use of such chemicals may void the element limited warranty.
• Permeate pressure must always be equal to or less than the feed/concentrate pressure. Damage caused by permeate back pressure voids the element limited warranty.
