Important Information
- Start-up: MANN+HUMMEL Water & Fluid Solutions recommends flushing elements for 30 minutes at low pressure and discarding permeate during the flush prior to operation. Refer to Element Start-Up Guide – System Start-Up (TSG-O-005) for detailed procedure.
- Cleaning: TurboClean® membrane elements must be cleaned periodically. Refer to Membrane Cleaning Guide – Food & Dairy: RO & NF Elements (TSG-C-003).
- Storage: TurboClean membrane elements must be stored appropriately. Refer to Element Storage Guides (TSG-O-009 & TSG-O-010).
