REMEDIES
Refer to Section 2.9 for proper-
ly setting concentrate and
recycle valves
See above.
Check the water temperature.
If needed, install a hot/cold
tempering valve. Permeate
production rate is dependent on
77°F (25°C). Refer to Section
2.5 (Temperature Correction
Factor).
Refer to Section 2.18 for cor-
rect membrane element
installation procedure.
Membrane elements with
damaged brine seals may be
returned for repair. For low
permeate production, it is
wise to test the permeate pro-
duction of each membrane
element.
Refer to Section 2.18 for cor-
rect membrane element
installation.
Flush and/or clean the
machine.
Reduce permeate line back-
pressure. Check for restric-
tions in permeate plumbing.
