  • Page 5: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION Your HRO 6-Series system is a durable piece of equipment which, with proper care, will last for many years. This User’s Manual outlines installation, operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting details vital to the sustained performance of your system. The test results which are included with this User’s Manual indicate your system’s permeate (product) and concentrate (waste) test results.

  • Page 6: Feed Water And Operation Specifications

    FEED WATER & OPERATION SPECIFICATIONS Nothing has a greater effect on a reverse osmosis system than the feed water quality. NOTE: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO MEET THE MINIMUM FEED WATER REQUIREMENTS. FAILURE WILL CAUSE THE MEMBRANES TO FOUL VOID MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY.

  • Page 7: System Requirements And Operation Guidelines

    The amount of permeate water recovered for use is expressed as a percentage. To calculate % recovery, use the following formula: % Recovery = (Product Water Flow Rate / Feed Water Flow Rate) x 100 Example: 26% = (1.04/4.00) x 100 % Rejection = [(Feed TDS –...
  • Page 8 CONCENTRATE (WASTE WATER) CONNECTION Locate the 1” or 3/4” connection (Depending on the unit) labeled concentrate and attach to a drain. Run the concentrate line to an open drain in a free and unrestricted manner (no backpressure). It is advised that an air-break be used on the concentrate line to prevent siphoning of water from the pressure vessels when the system is in standby.

    ALWAYS feed the pump with filtered water. The pump is susceptible to damage from sediment and debris. If any damage occurs to your system’s pump a re-build kit may be available. Contact your local dealer or distributor and inform them of your system’s model and pump size. MOUNTING The free standing system should be bolted down in compliance with local regulation standards or securely fastened.

  • Page 22: System Purging

    SYSTEM PURGING Carefully inspect your system before initial start-up. Check that all plumbing and electrical connections are not loose or have not come undone during shipment. A User’s Manual, Test Results, and Filter Housing Wrench will accompany your HRO 6-Series reverse osmosis system. NOTE: LEAVE THE POWER TO THE SYSTEM OFF FOR THIS PROCEDURE.

  • Page 23: Initial Start-Up

    FIGURE 2 INITIAL START-UP 1. Keep the permeate water line to drain for this procedure. 2. Fully open the concentrate valve (Counter Clockwise). (Figure 1B, Page. 16) 3. Fully close the recycle valve (Clockwise)(If Applicable). (Figure 1B, Page. 16) 4. Adjust the throttle valve at 50% open (Counter Clockwise). (Figure 1D, Page. 17) 5.

Adjust the system recovery to the recommended value Always feed the pump with filtered water. DON’T: Permit chlorine to enter or be present in the feed water Shut down the system for extended periods...
  • Page 26 PERMEATE (PRODUCT) FLOW METER AND CONCENTRATE (WASTE) FLOW METER These flow meters indicate the flow rates of the permeate and concentrate water. The measurements, when added together, also indicate the feed water flow rate or (total flow rate) if the recycle valve is not being used.

  • Page 27: Membrane Removal And Replacement

    MEMBRANE REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT Replacing membranes in the pressure vessels is an easy process if you have the proper information and tools at hand. Please refer to the following instructions when removing and replacing membrane elements: WARNING: ALL PRESSURE GAUGES MUST READ ZERO BEFORE PROCEEDING. BEFORE ATTEMPTING, DISCONNECT THE POWER FROM THE SYSTEM AND BLEED ALL WATER PRESSURE FROM THE SYSTEM.
  • Page 28 6. Re-install the end plugs by gently twisting the end cap while pushing it onto the housing. Ensure that you do not pinch or fatigue any O-rings while re-installing the end plug. Push the end plug on until the outer diameter of the plug is flush with the outer diameter of the pressure vessel. 7.

  • Page 29: Flushing The System

    FLUSHING THE SYSTEM The system should be flushed weekly to remove sediment from the surface of the membranes. To manually flush the system, follow the preceding steps: 1. The system must be operating during the flush procedure. Fully open the concentrate valve. (Figure 1B, Page. 16) 3.

  • Page 31 ABNORMAL PERMEATE FLOW As time progresses, the efficiency of the membrane will be reduced. In general, the salt rejection does not change significantly until two or three years after installation when operated on properly pretreated feed water. The permeate flow rate will begin to decline slightly after one year of operation, but can be extended with diligent flushing and cleaning of the system.

  • Page 32: Temperature Correction Factors For Membrane

    TEMPERATURE CORRECTION FACTORS FOR MEMBRANE Find the temperature correction factor (TCF) from the table below. Divide the rated permeate flow at 77°F by the temperature correction factor. The result is the permeate flow at the desired temperature. (See example on the next page) HRO 6 07/26/12...
  • Page 33 If a system is rated to produce 5 gpm of permeate water @ 77˚ F. The same system will produce more water at a higher temperature. It will also produce less water at a lower temperature. Use the temperature correction table to obtain the correct flow. Example: 5 gpm @ 59˚...
