Maintenance Use only original replacement parts for maintenance Leaks Close the water intake upon detecting a leak. Check all hoses and hose connections for leaks.
Chapter 1 – Device description Chapter 1 – Device description Intended Use The reverse osmosis unit is used to produce de-mineralized water and functions according to the reverse osmosis principle. This process presses water through a semi-permeable RO membrane (osmosis module) where the salt content of the cold water is reduced by some 95 %.

Chapter 1 – Device description Item Designation Explanation Osmosis module Represents the core of the reverse osmosis unit. The RO membrane separates the cold water into two flows: the permeate (pure water) and concentrate (waste water). Connection for The concentrate is fed into the effluent systems by the waste water concentrate line line over the steam sterilizer.
Chapter 2 – Installation Chapter 2 – Installation Requirements of the installation location The following requirements must be fulfilled: The installation location is clean and frost-free. The installation location is accessible for the installation, operation and regular replacement of the filter.

Chapter 2 – Installation Connect the waste water line (b ) and the cold water line (c ) to the underside of the steam sterilizer. Only at Cliniclave 45 M: Place the hoses over the bracket (d) in the rear area of the steam sterilizer, so that it protrudes from the floor unit.
Chapter 3 – Commissioning Chapter 3 – Commissioning Rinsing the reverse osmosis unit Following careful installation, the reverse osmosis unit can be commissioned in accordance with the following points: Close the manometer shut-off valve. Unscrew the filter housing of the ion exchanger (a).
The reverse osmosis unit now works fully-automatically. Checking the operational readiness Operating pressure Perform a daily check of the pressure on the pressure tank manometer before first program start. Fig. 2: Detail view of the MELAdem 56 M manometer Pressure in the Meaning Measure...
Interval/time Check/cleaning Daily Measure the permeate conductivity with a conductivity sensor or with a MELAG steam sterilizer, via the integrated test program "conductivity measurement". Check the pressure in the pressure tank via the inbuilt manometer. 12 months Check hoses and screw connections for leaks, crushing or kinks.
Chapter 4 - Maintenance Screw on the filter housing lightly with the filter key. Switch on the steam sterilizer and open the shut-off valve at the manometer. Check whether all the parts are secure and that the reverse osmosis unit is free from leaks. Replacing the activated carbon filter Replace the cartridge of the activated carbon filter once a year or when replacing the fine filter.
Replace the fine filter, the activated carbon filter and mixed-bed resin cartridge, empty the pressure tank and rinse the reverse osmosis unit and pressure tank before recommissioning. after 2 months Disinfect the reverse osmosis unit. Please contact the MELAG customer service or service of the specialist trade.
