The Hydroid system features a robust, innovative design that requires no adjustments in the event of feed water quality or temperature variations. Your Hydroid system is a durable piece of equipment which, with proper care, will last for many years. Standard...
DO NOT PERMIT CHLORINE TO BE PRESENT IN THE FEED WATER. DO NOT SHUT DOWN THE SYSTEM FOR EXTENDED PERIODS. IT IS BEST TO RUN THE SYSTEM AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE ON A CONTINUOUS BASIS. Hydroid – Series User Manual 04/19...
CONTROLLER The Hydroid system comes standard with an S-100 Controller. The S-100 series controller is a state-of-the-art, microprocessor-controlled system for commercial and industrial reverse osmosis systems. The S-100 includes numerous standard features such as pressure switch control, motor contactor, TDS/conductivity monitor with adjustable limit, pre-treatment lock out, tank level switch controls, and flush valve control.
The pump pressure gauge measures the pressure of the water as it enters the first membrane in the system. MEMBRANES The Hydroid system comes standard with Encapsulated Membrane Elements. Membranes separate impurities from water through the reverse osmosis process. See Membrane Information and Handling section of this manual for additional information.
Do not install system in direct sunlight, high intensity lights or subject the system to temperature extremes (see operating limits chart) and or excess humidity. The Hydroid system should be secured in compliance with state and local regulations.
SOURCE TANK Hydroid systems may be connected to a bladder tank or a storage tank with a float valve. The float valve shuts off the system when the tank is full, and opens when the water level in the tank drops. Bladder tanks and storage tanks with float valves can be obtained by your local dealer or distributor.
CAUSE DAMAGE OR FAILURE OF THE SYSTEM COMPONENTS AND MEMBRANES. DAMAGE TO THE SYSTEM DUE TO OPERATION OUTSIDE OF THE SPECIFICATIONS OUTLINED IN THIS MANUAL WILL VOID THE MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY. CHECK YOUR FEED WATER CHEMISTRY AND, IF NECESSARY, CONSULT WITH HYDROLOGIC BEFORE START-UP OF THE SYSTEM. OPERATING LIMITS* Design Temperature, °F...

6. Let the system purge until no bubbles appear in CONCENTRATE (drain water - black tubing) flow meter (approx. 3-5 min). 7. When the Hydroid system has been purged of air, press the power button momentarily to turn off the purge feature. The inlet valve will now turn off.
EXAMPLE: IF TUBING NEEDS TO BE INSTALLED 10FT HORIZONTAL LENGTH. OFF THE GROUND, TOTAL HORIZONTAL LENGTH MAY NOT EXCEED 30FT. IF LENGTH EXCEEDS SPECIFICATIONS, PLEASE CONTACT HYDROLOGIC 888-426-5644 USING THE REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM OPERATION LOG PROVIDED ON PAGE 24 OF THE USER MANUAL, RECORD YOUR SYSTEM’S READING DAILY FOR A WEEK.
The system should be flushed regularly to remove sediment from the surface of the membranes. Hydroid systems are pre-programmed to flush for 5 minutes upon tank full shut down. Should your application require another configuration, the S-100 controller provides several flush types, modes, and times to select from.
6) To start-up the system, please refer to the System Purging/Initial Start-Up (pages 15- 17) section of this User’s Manual. THE MEMBRANES MUST BE FLUSHED FOR AT LEAST 30 MINUTES. DISCARD ALL OF THE PRODUCT (PURIFIED WATER) THAT IS PRODUCED DURING THE FLUSH PERIOD. Hydroid – Series User Manual 04/19...

Percent of Recovery = (PRODUCT (purified water) Water Flow Rate / FEED (inlet) water flow rate) x 100 For Example, if the Hydroid makes 2.0 GPM PRODUCT (purified water) and has a FEED (inlet) flow of 2.66 GPM. (2.0 GPM PRODUCT (purified water) flow / 2.66 GPM FEED (inlet) flow) x 100 = 75% ALL FLOW RATES MUST BE EXPRESSED IN THE SAME UNITS, TYPICALLY GALLONS PER MINUTE (GPM).
Rated PRODUCT (purified water) Flowrate = 2 GPM @ 77°F Actual Water Temperature = 55°F Temperature Correction Factor @ 55°F = 1.541 PRODUCT (purified water) Flowrate @ 55°F = 2 GPM ÷ 1.541 = 1.297 GPM Hydroid – Series User Manual 04/19...

Find the temperature correction factor (TCF) from the table below. Divide the rated PRODUCT (purified water) flow at 77°F by the temperature correction factor. The result is the PRODUCT (purified water) flow at the desired temperature. (See example on the next page.) Hydroid – Series User Manual 04/19...
