INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Cleaning:

Below is a summary of the RO Cleaner 2110 cleaning procedure. For more detail, please refer to our technical bulletin, “Cleaning Spiral Wound Membrane Elements.”

1. Fill the cleaning tank to the desired volume with RO permeate or deionized water. Heat the solution to the maximum acceptable temperature (according to the membrane manufacturer’s guidelines), as this will dramatically increase cleaning efficiency. Add sufficient RO Cleaner 2110 to create a 2% wt/wt solution if the fouling is moderate to severe or a 1% wt/wt solution if the fouling is mild. Recirculate the solution through the cleaning tank to ensure adequate mixing.

2. Run the cleaning solution through each RO system stage, one at a time, for a minimum of 60 minutes at the flow rate recommended by the membrane manufacturer. If that rate is not known, use these guidelines:

3. If the membranes are heavily fouled and the recirculated cleaning solution becomes discolored or turbid, discard as much as 15% of the solution volume. Heavily fouled elements may also benefit from a soaking period (up to 8 hours).

4. Monitor the pH of the solution during the cleaning process. If the pH remains in the desired range and the solution is not turbid, it may be used to clean subsequent stages. In the unlikely event that the pH falls, prepare a new batch and repeat steps 1-4.

5. When cleaning is complete, rinse the membranes by flushing RO permeate through each pressure vessel. The system can then be returned to service
