How long does the reverse osmosis membrane in the water machine clean?
RO is the abbreviation of English Reverse Osmosis, which means reverse osmosis in Chinese. Generally, water flows from the side of low concentration to the side of high concentration. Once the water is pressurized, it will flow from the side of high concentration to the side of low concentration, which is the so-called reverse osmosis principle. Since the aperture of RO membrane is one millionth of the hair, can not be seen by the naked eye, bacteria, viruses are 5000 times of it, therefore, only water molecules can pass, can remove more than 95-99% of the magazine in water, is an important component in water purification. The RO film used in our water machine system is spiral wound, which can maximize the surface area of the RO film.
Because RO membranes are composed of tight components, the accumulation of particles or other pollutants on the surface of the membrane can cause rapid blockage of the membrane. Therefore, it is necessary to design part of the incoming water to become waste water, carrying away the main pollutants. At the same time, it is necessary to maintain and clean the RO membrane regularly.
If the reverse osmosis membrane needs to be cleaned because it is blocked, the vast majority of problems can be solved with two cleaning agents (cleaning agent A and cleaning agent B).
The bag of chemicals is fed into the sterilizing port, then the cleaning cycle is started (lasts 90 minutes), and at the end of the cleaning cycle, the system automatically enters Stand By mode.
This cleaning cycle should not be performed on a regular basis, and it is recommended to perform the cleaning cycle only when the flow rate of the system is significantly reduced, which indicates that the reverse osmosis membrane is blocked.
There is also a chlorine reagent tablet for sterilization, which is also put in from the disinfection mouth. It produces hypochlorous acid in neutral or acidic liquid environments, which can effectively kill bacteria. Chlorine disinfection is recommended every four weeks.
