Maintenance

Before initiating system start-up procedures, membrane pretreatment, loading of the membrane elements, instrument calibration and other system checks should be completed. Please refer to the product manual for more information.

During startup, it is recommended to gradually transfer the system from standstill to operational state as follows:

  • The inlet water pressure should be raised gradually within 30-60 seconds.
  • The operating flow rate should be achieved gradually over a period of 15-20 seconds.
  • Permeate obtained during the first hour of operation is discarded.

Important information

  • After starting, wetting always keep the elements wet
  • To prevent biofouling during long breaks in work it is recommended to immerse the membrane elements in preservative solutions.
  • The maximum pressure drop is 2.1 bar.
