3030226 Rev. D 2-3 Installation And
Initial System Start-Up
2.1 Installation Considerations
1. Select a location for the RO near the required utilities and dialysis equipment.
2. The RO requires 115 or 230 VAC for operation depending on model.
3. The RO requires nominally 1.5 GPM water at 20 PSI. Warmer RO feed water
(greater than 77°F (25°C)) will produce more permeate (product water), and will
consume more water. Inadequate RO feed water flow and pressure may cause
the RO to shut down due to low pressure. The water may also require some
pretreatment to ensure maximum performance and suitability. Mar Cor
Purification recommends that RO feed water be chlorine/chloramine free and
solids above 5 microns in size to be filtered out.
4. A free flowing drain with a minimum capacity of 2 GPM is required for the RO.
5. Back flow prevention may be required in accordance with local codes.
6. Special connections may be needed to connect to the facility water supply.
Connections vary with different facilities.
2.2 Installation Procedures
CAUTION:
If a carbon tank is present on the Millenium HX RO, the carbon tank must be
completely rinsed of all carbon fines and ash before connecting to the RO.
Otherwise, irreparable damage to the TF membrane and RO internals will result
(refer to Carbon Tank O&M Manual).
WARNING:
The Millenium HX RO is stored with Storage Solution from the factory. Follow all
Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) guidelines that are included with the RO.
CAUTION:
Supply water with a pH above 8.5 and containing chloramines will adversely affect
the operation of the RO membrane.
CAUTION:
Any pre-treatment device supplying water to the RO must be ready for use prior
to operating the RO.
