    Lync WQ-RS SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION Feed Water Product Water Reject Water Figure 1-1 RO Membrane 1.3. Pretreatment The RO feed water must be pretreated in order to prevent membrane damage and/or fouling. Table below shows the feed water chemistry requirements.
  • Page 6 Lync WQ-RS SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION Prefilter Cartridge - Used to remove smaller suspended solids and trap any particles that may be generated by the other pretreatment. The cartridge(s) should be replaced when the pressure drop across the housing increases 5 - 10 psig over the clean cartridge pressure drop. The effect of suspended solids is measured by the silt density index (SDI) test.

    Lync WQ-RS SECTION 3: OPERATION 3. OPERATION 3.1. Installation The water supply should be sufficient to provide a minimum of 20 psig pressure at the design feed flow. Proper pretreatment must be determined and installed prior to the RO system.
  • Page 11: Startup

    Lync WQ-RS SECTION 3: OPERATION and location must be determined by the installer. Check the pump motor nameplate for the amperage draw at various voltages to determine the wire size required. Do not apply power to the RO unit at this time.
