  • Page 1 KSRO Series Reverse Osmosis System Installation Manual...
  • Page 2 ROTEK KSRO Series RO systems are specifically designed for commercial and industrial-sized RO systems. It is designed with a fixed recovery rate of 60-65% by using ROTEK extra-large flow RO membranes that can produce 4000~6000GPD (650~1000LPH) of permeate water flow, which means it can produce more pure water at less cost.

    Recovery Rate = (Permeate Flow / Permeate Flow + Discharged Flush Flow) * Permeate Flow Rate is calculated based on Rotek XL-4040 membranes. It is also possible to use other brands of membranes with KSRO units, but the flow rate may vary.
  • Page 8 Raw Water (Feed Water) Requirements Raw water quality, pressures, and flow rates have a significant impact on the performance of any reverse osmosis system. To ensure reliable and consistent long-term performance, it is important to supply feed water having the minimum specifications detailed below. If your raw water supply is marginal, you should consider using a raw water break tank and booster pump to supply the system.
  • Page 9: Pretreatment Suggestion

    Please make sure that the quality of your raw water meets the aforementioned KSRO raw water requirements, otherwise, it is recommended to install pre-treatment equipment. You can install it by yourself, or suggest using ROTEK’s existing standard pretreatment module, of course, it can also be customized according to your raw water conditions.

  • Page 22: Membrane Cleaning

    ▋RO Membrane Cleaning (Recommended about every 6 months to 1 year. Periodic cleaning of the membrane(s) can improve system performance. In normal operation, mineral scale, biological matter, colloidal particles, and organic substances can foul the membranes and reduce performance. The best prevention is to use a well-designed pre-treatment system incorporating efficient sediment removal, de-chlorination (if chlorine-based sanitisers are present), and softening or chemical dosing for the removal of scale forming minerals.
  • Page 23 2. Low-flow rate pumping. Pump mixed, preheated cleaning solution into the housing at a low flow rate of 5-10 litres per minute at low pressure (<120kPa) to displace the process water. Use only enough pressure to compensate for the pressure drop from feed to concentrate. The pressure should be low enough so that little to no permeate is produced.
