Handling & Operation Guidelines

  • Permeate obtained from the first hour of operation should be discarded.
  • Avoid static permeate-side backpressure at all times.
  • For element loading, use only glycerine to lubricate o-rings and brine seal.
  • Minimum permeate flow for individual elements is 15 percent below the listed flow.
  • Elements are vacuum sealed in a polyethylene bag containing less than 1.0% sodium meta-bisulfite and 10% propylene glycol solution.
  • The presence of free chlorine and other oxidizing agents will cause membrane failure; the damage is not covered under warranty.
