4. Reverse osmosis (RO) system
4.1 Check the prefilter housing (F4.1) and the corresponding cartridge.
4.2 Switch on the high pressure pump (CP5.1) for a short period of time just to test the
pump rotation. If necessary, reverse any two of the three main power leads.
Caution Do not run the pumps dry more than few seconds.
4.3 To get a constant pressure, check and open all the needed manual inlet valves right
up to the automatic RO valve AV5.1.
High pressure side: Open the RO system valves HV5.4 and HV5.6 completely.
Check that adjusting valve HV 5.5 is partly open. Close the valve HV6.5.
Permeate: Open permeate valve HV5.11 and HV6.2, close valve HV5.7 (= the
permeate will be led to clean-in-place tank).
Reject: Open the reject valve HV5.9 completely. Close the CIP valve HV6.7.
Open the cleaning system bottom valve HV6.8.
4.4 Check the pressure level at inlet, pressure indicator PI4.2. If the pressure level is
less than 3 bars check the feed system, all the related valves should be open.
4.5 Open manually the inlet valve AV5.1 to purge air and preservation liquid from the
system.
4.6 If needed, purge the air in the high pressure pump CP5.1 by opening the pump
purge plug.
Caution If not properly purged, the mechanical seal may damage.
4.7 Adjust manual valve HV5.5 to half-open position.
4.8 Check that the influent will be divided into permeate - pure water, from flow meter
FISA5.1 flowing into wash tank - and into reject (from pressure meter PI5.3, or
from drain line FI5.2). If water is not flowing check that inlet pressure is OK and all
the inlet valves are open.
4.9 Continue the rinsing until the reject is clear and free of odor (and taste), however
not less than 10 minutes.
4.10 Set the feed pump CP5.1 control switch into manual ON (1) mode.

Phone +358 - 9 - 87 11 205 Fax +358 - 9 - 87 11 206
4.11 By rotating manual adjusting valve HV5.5 find the minimum feed pressure to reach
a nominal permeate flow of 1.000 liters/hour (FISA5.1; PI5.1 = typically 7-9 bars).
4.12 Continue the flushing until the permeate quality is acceptable (typical conductivity
<200 S/cm), however not less than 10 minutes. If used for drinking water
purposes, flushing should be continued for 2-3 hours or more despite the
conductivity value.
4.13 Open permeate valve HV5.7 to pure water tank.
4.14 Set the feed pump CP5.1 control switch into automatic (A) position, the inlet valve
AV5.1 into automatic (A) position and permeate valve AV5.2/AV6.1 into
automatic (A) position. The automatic water production should start.
If the system will not start,
- Check the automatic fuses/relays in the electrical box

- Check the pure water tank level switch.
- Check the permeate minimum flow switch FISA5.1 and the pressure difference
switch PDSA5.1; adjust if necessary
- Check the RO inlet pressure switch PSA5.1; adjust the minimum and maximum
pressures if necessary (see default set-up values)
4.15 By rotating manual valve HV5.5 ensure the minimum feed pressure to reach a
nominal permeate flow of 1000 liters/hour.
4.16 During the run sequence, the reject line pressure indication PI5.3 should reach a
level of 7 9 bars (= PI5.1 less 1 bar, dP [PI5.1 PI5.3] = max 2,0 bars).
Warning During the normal run/water production, NEVER close the reject valve
HV5.9. A permanent loss of flux can follow.
Caution It is recommended to flush the system to drain with feedwater at design

operating pressure for a minimum of 10 - 30 minutes. For potable water
applications, discard the product water for at least 2 hours or more prior to drinking
or using in food applications.

Phone +358 - 9 - 87 11 205 Fax +358 - 9 - 87 11 206
4.17 Check that the pure water tank level switch (LS7.2) will stop the system when the
upper level is reached (tank full). Correspondingly check that the lower level will
start the production (tank empty).
Check the valves as follows (see also the related PI-diagram):
Manual valves in the run sequence:
HV1.12.7 Open
HV2.1.2 Open

Booster station valves: valve positions as seen necessary for normal run

Phone +358 - 9 - 87 11 205 Fax +358 - 9 - 87 11 206
5. Chemical dosing
Some chlorine is dosed into raw water, before it enters the raw water tank.
Warning!
1. Always use protective clothing, gloves and a face mask or a helmet visor.
2. Locate the emergency shower and an eye rinse bottle.
3. Thoroughly read through the safety information given of the chemicals (MSD
sheets)
Use sodium-hypochlorite (NaOCl, 10-15 %) as the primary disinfectant.
Adjust the chemical dosing pump MP1.1 settings in a way that the wanted active
chlorine level in the water can be reached. Typically the wanted level is 0.5 1.0
ppm (mg/l). The dosing pump is controlled by a pulse flow meter. The meter gives
a pulse between every 10 liters.
The pump setting is given as pulses between every stroke. The default factory
setting is one pulse per each pulse meaning one stroke per 10 liters and about 0,28
ml/10 liters of water. [1 stroke: 280 mg *12.5 % * 1.10 kg/l = about 35 mg]
Set the pump pulse selector at 3 after which the stroke should happen once per
each 30 liters.
Caution
The only reliable way to control the suitable dosing rate is to measure free/active
chlorine at raw water tank inlet by chemical analysis. Adjust when necessary. Do
not overdose.

Phone +358 - 9 - 87 11 205 Fax +358 - 9 - 87 11 206
6. GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Fill in the empty table Setting and setup values. Compare the parameters to
situation during the start-up. The default values should be measured after 24 hours
of normal production.
6.1 On a daily basis, inspect the entire system for leaks, and general condition. Record
the differential pressure across all of the prefilters, and check the permeate
conductivity.
6.2 If the pressure difference across the prefilters rises radically, the backwash
frequency should be changed. Check that the backwash flow rate is stable.
Alternatively change the optional filter bags.
Note Accepted pressure difference (head loss) for prefilters is [pure filter head loss] +
0,51,0 bars.
6.3 If the pressure difference across any of the bag/cartridge filters rises above 0,5 ...
1,0 bars, the bags or cartridges should be changed. The exchange minimum is 2
times/year for each bag/cartridge.
6.4 (Option only) Take care that enough solid salt crystals (NaCl) can be found in the
brine tank. Add if necessary up to 100 kilograms.
6.5 Take care that enough antiscalant (option only) can be found in the chemical tank.
Add if found necessary, see point 5.
6.6 Check the RO inlet pressure PI5.1 and the permeate flow FISA5.1, and act as
follows:
Pressure PI5.1 Permeate FISA5.1 Note
< 9,0 bars 1000 liters/h OK

> 9,0 bars (*) 1000 liters/h Start chemical wash
Constant pressure (**)

79,0 bars < 850 liters/h Start chemical wash
Regarding that after initial start-up a permeate flow of 1000 l/h was achieved with
an average constant pressure of 7,5 bars.
(*): To achieve the same permeate flow, pressure should be risen 10 - 15 %.

(**): With the same initial pressure permeate flow will drop more than 15 %.

Phone +358 - 9 - 87 11 205 Fax +358 - 9 - 87 11 206
Warning If the chemical wash will not be made early enough and properly, a permanent
loss of flux and flow rate can follow.

than 0,1 mg Cl2/l, the activated carbon must be changed immediately.
(5) Check the permeate quality and the flux/flow after a normal cleaning. If the flow or
the quality cannot be reached, change the membranes. The default life span of the
membranes is 3 7 years depending on the use.

Phone +358 - 9 - 87 11 205 Fax +358 - 9 - 87 11 206
7. CHEMICAL WASH
Chemical wash should be done if:
1. To achieve the same permeate flow, pressure should be risen 10 - 15 % from the
initial pressure.
2. With the same initial pressure permeate flow will drop more than 15 %.
3. Permeate quality is constantly poor.
4. Pressure drop across PI5.1 PI5.3 rises by 10 15 %.
5. Pressure difference switch PDSA5.1 informs to clean the system
Procedure
Warning!
1. Always use protective clothing, gloves and a face mask or a helmet visor.
2. Locate the emergency shower and an eye rinse bottle.
3. Thoroughly read through the safety information given of the chemicals (MSD
sheets)
- Choose a suitable cleaning solution from the list afterwards. The solution depends
on the type of foulant.
Note In severe fouling, the best result can be achieved by making the cleaning twice with
the same liquid or by using both the washing liquids (A, first) and (B, second) one
after another. For silica fouling ask more details.
Caution Before draining into natural waters, always take care of the neutralization of
the spent cleaning chemicals. Normally pH 6-10 is allowed.
- Typical chemicals are
(A) 2 % Sodium Tripolyphosphate + 0,8 % EDTA solution (2 kg sodium

tripolyphosphate + 0,8 kg EDTA in 100 liters of water, pH adjusted to 11 with
sulfuric acid)
- for iron, organics and silicate colloids
- for calcium sulfate
Corresponding trademarks: Ultrasil-110, Ameroyal C800, Alkaline PermaClean
Ultrasil-110:
To reach pH level of 11 use 0,5 2 % liquid (= 0.5 - 2 kg Ultrasil-110 and 100

liters permeate). Never exceed pH value of 12, however, the best possible effect is
achieved very near to 11,5.

Phone +358 - 9 - 87 11 205 Fax +358 - 9 - 87 11 206
During the cleaning phase add more chemical if needed.
(B) 2 % Citric Acid solution (2 kg in 100 liters of water, pH adjusted to 4,0 with
ammonium hydroxide)
- for iron compounds
- for calcium carbonate
Corresponding trademarks: Ultrasil-75, Ameroyal C238, Acidic PermaClean
Ultrasil-75:
To reach pH level of 2 use 0,5 2 % liquid (= 0.5 2 kg Ultrasil-75 and 100 liters
permeate). Never let the pH value fall under 1,5 however, the best possible effect is
achieved very near to 1,5.
During the cleaning phase add more chemical if needed.
Caution Before using any other Trademark chemicals ask for details. Consult chemical
manufacturers for cleaning details.
Warning! Never let the pH-value fall below of 1,5 (lowest acceptable limit) or exceed
12,0 (highest acceptable limit). Normal cleaning liquid temperature is 30-35 C. Do
not exceed this without special permission.
