The highest point of the tubing should not be higher than four feet above the top of the reverse osmosis modules, or the elements may be damaged.

  • Page 15: Initial Startup

    Depending on the feed water quality, it may be possible to operate the unit with a lower concen- trate flow rate, which would decrease operating costs. Refer to the printout from the Culligan® CAAP® (Computer Aided Application Program) software, which indicates maximum allowable recovery.

  • Page 16: Normal Operation

    If any changes are noticed, the product flow should be normalized to determine if cleaning is required (see “Product Flow Calculations” on page 13). Cat. No. 01023094 Culligan® Series E2 Plus Reverse Osmosis...

    When using pressurized storage, you must use a pressure switch that provides a closed signal when the tank is below the shut off pressure, such as the switch provided in the Pressurized Water Storage Kit. CAUTION! Do not apply power to these terminals. Use dry contacts only. Cat. No. 01023094 Culligan® Series E2 Plus Reverse Osmosis...
  • Page 19 Pretreatment Lockout The controller allows an external contact closure to cause the RO to go into a “pre-treat lockout” condition. This signal is Normally Closed. When OPEN it indicates that the system should STOP because a piece of pretreatment equipment is in a regeneration state.

  • Page 21 Flush Modes Line Pressure Front Side Flush Prior to Startup When main power is first applied to the CP controller, the controller will first wait for a one-hour delay and will then open the RO inlet solenoid valve and waits for an additional period of one minute. During this minute, feed water under line pressure enters the RO, passes thru the pump and flushes through the upstream (feed water side) of the membranes and then passes to drain.

  • Page 22: Service And Maintenance

    Service and Maintenance Serial Numbers The Culligan units have a serial number located directly behind the electronic controller on the side panel. Do not remove or destroy these serial number labels. The serial number must be referenced if the RO system requires repairs or parts replacement under warranty.

  • Page 27 Prepare the Equipment for Cleaning Turn the unit power off. Place the solution tank on the tank stand. Connect the tubing to the cleaning adapter then place the other end of the tubing at the bottom of the solution tank. NOTICE The tubing length should be as short as possible to prevent excessive pressure drop.
  • Page 28 The temperature of the chemical solution will rise as it is recirculated. If the temper- ature exceeds 95°F, turn the unit power off and allow the solution to cool to prevent damage to the RO elements. Cat. No. 01023094 Culligan® Series E2 Plus Reverse Osmosis...
  • Page 29 Compare these values with the “new” and “now” values to determine if cleaning has been successful. If cleaning has not been successful, contact the service department at Culligan International Company for suggestions on alternate cleaning chemicals. If cleaning has been successful, note which chemicals were effective. Use the same chemical(s) when the unit is cleaned again.

    Appendix B Basic Principles Reverse Osmosis In order to understand reverse osmosis, we must first define osmosis. Osmosis is the passage of a liquid through a semi-permeable membrane. A semi-permeable membrane is a membrane which allows one component of a solution to pass through it and not the others.
