Other Operating Information

  • Minimum permeate flow for individual elements is 20 percent below listed flow.
  • Elements are vacuum sealed in a polyethylene bag containing less than 1.0% sodium meta-bisulfite and 10% propylene glycol solution.
  • Guidelines:
    • Permeate obtained from the first hour of operation should be discarded.
    • Avoid static permeate-side backpressure at all times.
    • These membranes may be subject to drinking water application restrictions in some countries; check application status before use and sale.
    • For element loading, use only glycerine to lubricate o-rings and brine seal.
  • Warnings:
    • The customer is fully responsible for the effects of incompatible chemicals on elements.
    • The presence of free chlorine and other oxidizing agents will cause membrane failure, and the damage is not covered under warranty.
