40E60 Brackish RO Pressure Vessels
DANGER - HIGH PRESSURE DEVICE
This vessel may cause loss of life, severe bodily harm, or property damage if not correctly installed, operated and
maintained. Read and understand all guidelines given in this bulleting before attempting to open, operate or service
this vessel. Failure to follow these guidelines and observe every precaution will result in malfunction and could
result in catastrophic failure. Misuse, incorrect assembly, or use of damaged or corroded components can result
in high-velocity release of the end closure. We recommend that only a qualified technician experienced in servicing
high-pressure hydraulic systems open, close and service this vessel.
Do... read, understand and follow every guide-
line in this bulletin. Failure to take every
precaution may void warranty and could
result in catastrophic failure.
Do... install in an area where a vessel or piping
malfunction that result in water leakage
would not damage sensitive or expensive
equipment, such as electronic components.
Do... verify that head locking components are
properly placed and secured.
Do... inspect end closures regularly, replace
deteriorated components and correct
causes of corrosion.
follow membrane element manufacturer's
Do...
recommendations for loading elements into
the vessel (see Replacing Elements).
The 40E60 RO Pressure Vessel Housings are designed
to be used in water desalination systems. Any make of
4-inch nominal diameter spiral-wound element may be
used. The vessels utilize a fiberglass reinforced plastic
shell for superior corrosion resistance. However, metallic
parts of the vessel may be subject to corrosion, which
can result in an unsafe condition. The fiberglass shell
can be damaged by rigid clamping, impact, scratches
or abrasion.

Important Safety Precautions
General Information
Do not... operate vessel at pressures and tempera-
tures in excess of their specific rating.
Do not...
service any component until you verify that
pressure is fully relieved from the vessel.
Do not...
use corroded components. Use of such
components may result in catastrophic
failure.
Do not... pressurize vessel until after visually inspecting
to ensure that the spiral retaining rings is
correctly installed and seated in their grooves.
Do not... tolerate leaks or allow end closures to be
routinely wetted in any way.
use excessive silicone lubricant.
Do not...
Do not... pressurize vessel without element in place
unless perme ate ports are plugged
internally.
Do not... overtighten fittings in ports.
Do not... Use petroleum products on Noryl components.
Do not... Allow petroleum or silicone based products to
come in contact with membrane elements during
installation or maintenance.
Do not... Use the vessel at negative pressure
Do not... Stand or climb on the pressure vessels, or the
feed / concentrate or permeate ports.
The information and guidelines incorporated in this
User's Guide are intended only as a supplement to
good industrial practice. Full responsibility for correct
operation and maintenance of vessel remains with the
user.
This guide should be used in conjunction with drawing
number 518017.
When properly installed and maintained, 40E60
vessels can be expected to provide safe operation over
a long service life.
