Summary

Product Identification

The TM700D Series comprises high-rejection brackish water reverse osmosis membrane elements with enhanced chemical tolerance. Toray's membrane technology utilizes cross-linked fully aromatic polyamide composite membranes for high-quality permeate and robust membrane chemistry. Manufacturing is under ISO 9001 for consistent quality.

Applications:

  • Municipal drinking water
  • Industrial process water
  • Water reuse

Products manufactured at Toray's U.S. facility (TMUS) are certified to NSF/ANSI 61 for drinking water applications.

Notes on Operating Limits:

  • Consult the latest Toray technical bulletin, design guidelines, computer design program, or an application specialist for the recommended design range. Not strictly following the operating limits will void the Limited Warranty.
  • RO elements are wet tested and treated with a 1 percent by weight sodium bisulfite storage solution. They are then vacuum packed in oxygen barrier bags or treated with a tested feed water solution and vacuum sealed with deoxidant inside.
  • Toray recommends flushing RO elements for 30 to 60 minutes once every two days with sufficient quality flushing water (such as pre-treated feed water) to prevent biological growth during system shutdown. Refer to the Toray RO Handling Manual.
  • The presence of free chlorine and other oxidizing agents, especially with heavy metals as oxidation catalysts, can cause unexpected oxidation of the membrane. Toray strongly recommends removing these oxidizing agents from feed water before operating the RO system.
  • Permeate from the first hour of operation shall be discarded.
  • The customer is fully responsible for the effects of chemicals that are incompatible with the elements. Their use will void the element Limited Warranty.
  • Maximum operating pressure will vary depending on feed temperature.
