What is Reverse Osmosis?
The technique of removing a considerable part of dissolved solids and other impurities from water by forcing it through a semi-permeable reverse osmosis membrane is known as reverse osmosis, or RO.
The RO membrane is responsible for the majority of the system's heavy lifting. It eliminates dissolved solids (salts, minerals, and metals), microbes, and organic compounds from water in excess of 96-97 percent. The membrane separates the two streams of water flow. The filtered water from the membrane is sent to the storage tank.
Cleaning of RO membranes
RO membranes will need to be cleaned on a regular basis, anywhere from once a year to four times a year, depending on the quality of the feed water.
It's time to clean the RO membranes if the normalized pressure lowers or the normalized salt passage increases by 15%, as a general rule. It's also time to clean the RO membranes if the normalized permeate flow has dropped by 15%. You have the option of cleaning the RO membranes in place (if equipped) or having them taken from the RO system and cleaned off site by a business that specializes in this service. Offsite membrane cleaning has been shown to be more effective than onsite cleaning skids in terms of giving a superior clean.
How to install Reverse Osmosis membranes?
To ensure a long shelf life, the reverse osmosis membrane for your unit is packaged in a unique bag. It should be installed as soon as possible before you install and turn on the unit.
1. Install by pressing in on the collet of the fitting and pulling out the tube that enters the cap end of the membrane housing. The membrane housing cap should then be removed. It unscrews in a clockwise direction.
2. Cut or rip the back end of the sealed bag that contains the membrane when the cap is removed from the housing. With two black O-rings, cut off the end of the bag opposite the membrane stem. Then, with pliers, grip the back stem of the membrane (the end opposite the stem with the two O-rings) and pull the membrane from the bag, avoiding contacting the membrane with your hands.Place the membrane under a water tap while holding it with pliers. This isn't to rinse the membrane, but to lubricate the O-rings and back skirt so it can go into the housing easily.
3. Slide the wet membrane into the membrane housing of the RO unit while still gripping it with pliers. It must be done to fit into a slot on the housing's front end. The ideal method is to press it to a convenient stop, then twist and push with the pliers. You'll be able to feel it slide into place.
4. You're now ready to go. Replace the cap and tube.
