    Appendix #10: Procedure to Prevent Freezing of EDI Modules This is SnowPure’s recommendation for the prevention of freezing of Electropure™ EDI modules. Freezing may take place either during shipment (by air or by land), or in storage. Electropure™ EDI modules are shipped sealed, bacteria-free, and drained of free water but still wet.
  • Page 79 Appendix #11: EDI Module Storage and EDI System Shutdown SnowPure’s recommendations for module storage and for EDI system shutdown and startup are based on our experience and our customers’ experience. The primary criterion for how to store modules and shutting down systems is the prevention of bacterial growth.
