- Mixing Instructions
- Inspect all cleaning system components to include CIP tank, hoses, and cartridge filters. Flush or replace if necessary. Fill cleaning tank with RO permeate or DI water. Turn on agitator or tank recirculation pump.
- Slowly add LavasolTM 6 to cleaning tank (1 gal [3.8 L] of LavasolTM for every 50 gal [189 L] of water). Mix thoroughly. The solution pH should match product specification. If necessary, adjust pH with a membrane–approved chemical such as caustic, citric, sulfuric or hydrochloric acid. The solution should be heated up to 45 ̊C to improve cleaning efficacy.
- Circulate solution in the same direction as the feed flow. Typical circulation times are 30-90 minutes.* PWT recommends cleaning each stage of the system separately. Maximum flow rate per pressure vessel is 40 gpm (152 Lpm) for 8-inch elements and 10 gpm (38 Lpm) for 4-inch elements. Maximum pressure for cleaning is 60 psig (4.2 kg/cm2).
- In cases of heavy fouling, divert the first 10-20% of cleaning solution to drain to prevent re- deposition of removed solids.
- Rinse with RO permeate before returning system to service. When returning unit to service, divert product water to drain until any residual cleaning solution has been rinsed from system.
- Product Uses
- For use on reverse osmosis (RO), nanofiltration (NF), ultrafiltration (UF) and micro-filtration (MF) membranes
- Formulated to dissolve inorganic precipitants from the membrane surface
- To aid in the removal of carbonates, phosphates, metal hydroxides and similar inorganic foulants
