1-4. Do not feed the following liquids into SEPAREL–oxidizing agents (highly concentrated chlorine water, ozone water, etc.), strong acids, strong bases, organic solvents, alcohol, oils, or any other liquid which is not compatible with the liquid and materials that SEPAREL modules are composed of.
Page 7: Installation
● Set the vacuum port downward to smoothly purge liquid derived from vapor. ● If you fix SEPAREL with a U-band, make sure not to loosen the fitting. Do not apply too much pressure when fixing SEPAREL with a U-band as too much pressure may damage the module.

INSTALLATION ＜Example of Installation＞ Filter Liquid Feeding Degassing Pump Module Filter Vacuum Leak Valve Meter Liquid Tank Vacuum Pump Trap The above example is for your reference. Depending on use conditions, the above example may not be suitable. ※Optimal flow direction differs by use conditions and the above flow direction is not always the correct direction.
Page 9 Liquid in phase 2) Liquid Out: ● There is a possibility that particles are generated by the SEPAREL module. To prevent a problem with such particle occurrence, install a filtration filter behind the module. The most suitable filtration size depends on your use conditions. For more details, please contact DIC.
Page 10: Start-Up
For efficient removal of remaining air in the liquid area of SEPAREL modules, filling the liquid with a vacuum is recommended. During the vacuuming process, check the airtightness of the vacuum line and not the air that is leaked from pipe, connector, and SEPAREL module.
Page 11: Shutoff And Storage
2) If the shutoff period is extensive, remove the SEPAREL modules and store after cleaning and drying completely. If it is difficult to uninstall the SEPAREL module, fill it with liquid that is compatible with SEPAREL and close all liquid and vacuum ports completely.

INSTRUCTION MANUAL REFRENCE DATA 2: Vacuum Pressure Degree ● Note that the vacuum pressure degree in our data sheet is mainly indicated by absolute pressure, not by gauge pressure. Recommended range of vacuum pressure degree (Refer to Reference Data 3) 1 atm 0.65 atm 0.35 atm...
Page 14: Setting Value Of Vacuum Pressure Degree
INSTRUCTION MANUAL REFRENCE DATA 3: Setting Value of Vacuum Pressure Degree As the vacuum pressure degree approaches a perfect vacuum, degassing performance is improved. However, if the vacuum pressure degree is too strong yet close to perfect pressure, liquid may evaporate and penetrate through the membrane.
Page 15: Range Of Liquid Flow Rate
※ The warranty will not apply in cases where liquid feeding pressure exceeds the maximum pressure value specified in the specification sheet, Product Maximum Pressure Resistance EF-MICRO 0.2 MPa (= 2 bar) EF-G2 Series 0.2 MPa (= 2 bar) EF-G3 Series 0.2 MPa (= 2 bar) EF-G5 Series 0.2 MPa (= 2 bar) Even if liquid feeding pressure is lower than the specified maximum pressure, an increased flow rate will cause lesser degassing performance.
