REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Osmosis is the movement of water from a high concentration to a low concentration, through a SEMI-permable membrane. Osmosis is ‘complete’ when both sides are in the state of equalibrium which this means when the water molecules are of equal concentration on both sides of the membrane.
Reverse osmosis (RO) is a filtration method that removes many types of large molecules and ions from solutions by applying pressure to the solution on one side of a selective membrane forcing only the small water molecules through the membrane becoming purified or permeate water.

BASIC PRINCIPLES OF THE REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM
Raw water (feed water) from a (softened) supply flows through a sediment filter and on through the high pressure pump. The pressure is checked and if too low the inlet vale shuts and a yellow alarm light appears (see above). The system will try again and after 3 attempts if the pressure is still too low the alarm red LED will light up and the system will stop. Press the reset button for 3 seconds to clear the alarm.
3
Assuming the pressure is ok the high pressure pump will start up and boost the pressure to 5 to 10 bar (see pressure guage). Water is forced through the mebrane while the minerals and concentrate go to waste. There is a flow restrictor in the waste nozzle fitting DO NOT REMOVE this. The permeate flows into the storage tank where the float switch should be fitted. When the tank is full the RO will stop (and the max full LED will light up. When there has been a demand and the float drops the RO will start up automatically.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS ABOUT SYSTEM
1. Do not leave the membranes dry. Operate the RO system for at least 1 hour if the RO system is not used for 2 or more days (stop stagnation).
2. Check the RO inlet pressure, and if the inlet pressure is higher or lower than expected pressure, consult your supplier.
3. Check the permeate (product) and concentrate water conductivity, and if the conductivity is higher than expected, consult your supplier.
4. Check the permeate and concentrate water flow, if the flow is higher or lower than expected flow, consult your supplier.
5. Life span of the membranes is a minimum of 3 years under normal conditions. If membrane efficiency decreases or becomes cloged despite chemical washing, renew the membranes.
6. When the system is in the operation mode, never close the inlet and outlet valves. 7. This systems should only be used on well and tap water (pre treatment maybe needed). 8. Electrical earthing is required. 9. The RO system is transported as packaged system. Connect the feed, permeate and waste
(concentrate) lines on site.. 10. The float switch should be connected in the permeate water tank.
BEFORE COMMISSIONING
The feed water to the RO system may need pre-treatment such as filtration units, or softener require chemical dosing depending on the raw water quality. If the pretreatment system already exists in the plant, the RO must be stopped while the pre treatreatment is off line (eg when back washing). These systems should be checked before the RO system is installed.
4
HYDRAULIC CONNECTION Connect the raw water supply. Connect the permeate (product) water line to the permeate tank. Within specification (table Permeate water back pressure should be less than 0,5 bar. If the pressure is higher than 0,5 bar, a check valve has to be put into this line ( 3m of head). If there has to be a shut off valve, the safety valve must be put before the shut off valve. The permeate water float is should be connected to an existing permeate water tank. Slowly fill the system with raw water checking the flow and pressures. Air in the line can be released via the air relief valve on the cartridge filter.
COMMISSIONING STEPS 1. Check the feed water characteristics are within the defined design limits. If the conductivity is higher than 2000 µS/cm, do not feed water to the system. 2. If the membrane is not alreay in put it into the vessel. Arrows on the membranes should be same drection with raw water direction. 3. Press the green on button. Check whether there are any alarms (alarms indicated with a lighted alarm led). 4. Check the conductivity of the permeate water on the built in conductivity meter. For first half an hour the conductivity can be high so please wait 30 minutes for the system to stabilise.
POSSIBLE MALFUNCTIONS DURING COMMISSIONING STEPS 1. LOW PRESSURE ALARM
Feed water pressure has to be between 2-4 bar. If the pressure drops under 2 bar, low pressure alarm occurs in the system. Possible reasons for low pressure alarm: – Cartridge filter at the front end of the reverse osmosis could be clogged, – Raw water feed pump may not be working properly, – Low pressure switch may not be working properly, – Check position of all valves and make sure they are open or not. – Check the direction of inlet selenoid valve is the correct irection.. – Check low pressure set value is 2 bar.

PERIODICAL MAINTENANCES
DAILY MAINTENANCE ) Check static and dynamic elements in the plant. ) Check for any leakage of water. ) Check the cartridge filter check input / output pressure. If the pressure limit exceeds 0,8 bar, change the cartridge. ) Check product water and waste water flow ) Check the pressure on manometer ) Check inlet temperature of the reverse osmosis device ) Check the reverse osmosis operation efficiency ) Check chemical consumption
WEEKLY MAINTENANCE ) Add consumed chemicals to the chemical tank (if used). ) Clean chemical storage tank if it is not clean. ) Check the pumps and valves ) Check the efficiency of the RO ) Keep the system clean
MONTHLY MAINTENANCE ) Repeat daily and weekly maintenance ) Check the electrical panel ) Calibrate analysers if applicable
YEARLY MAINTENANCE ) Repeat monthly and weekly maintenance ) Make general cleaning and painting jobs ) Painted surfaces must be renewed if necessary ) Alignment of equipment and level; equipment must be checked in accordance with manufacturers instructions. This process should be made especially for pumps and electric motors.

LOW PRESSURE SETTINGS 7
The pressure sensor is pre set . If it needs to be adjusted then the start-stop set pressure increases in a clock wise direction and decreases in a counterclock wise direction. Diff (differential) works the opposite way. Start Stop is the low pressure value. Differential; is the range either side of the low pressure value.. Example: When the low pressure is set at 3 bar and diff is set at 1 bar, the system low pressure cuts in at 3±1 = 2 to 4 bar operating range. When the low pressure is set at 2 bar and diff is set at 3 bar, (2±3) the low pressure will work from -1 bar ie never switch off (avoid this as below 2 bar the pump can get damaged !).
