1.0 DESCRIPTION
E-CE Series Reverse Osmosis (RO) machines are durable pieces of equipment, which, with prop-
er care, will last for many years. These instructions give operation and maintenance details vital
to the sustained performance of the machine. Please read completely before operating your
machine.
1.1 Definitions
The operating definitions provided below will help you further understand your machine
and this manual.
1.1.1 Permeate Rate (Product Water Rate) [Qp]
The Permeate Rate is the flow rate of purified water that passed through the mem-
brane element and out of the membrane element in liter/min (Lpm), cubic
meters/hour (m3/h), gallons/min (gpm) or gallons/hour (gph). Specified perme-
ate rates are based on a feed water temperature of 25°C (77°F). Permeate rate will
vary with temperature.
1.1.2 Concentrate Rate (Wastewater Rate) [Qc]
The Concentrate Rate is the flow of incoming water in Lpm or m3/h (gpm or gph).
1.1.3 Feed Rate [Qf]
The Feed Rate is the flow rate of incoming water in Lpm or m3/h (gpm or gph).
Feed water rate equals permeate plus concentrate rate.
1.1.4 Reverse Osmosis
Reverse Osmosis (RO) is the separation of one component in a solution from
another component of a solution from another component by means of pressures
exerted on a semi-permeable membrane element. The feed solution is separated
into two streams, permeate and concentrate, and collected from both sides of the
membrane element.

1.1.5 Membrane Elements
Membrane elements are interleaved layers of semi-permeable membrane, spacer,
and permeate carrier spiraled around a central permeate tube make up the mem-
brane element.

1.1.6 Clean-In-Place
The abbreviation for Clean-In-Place is CIP.
1.1.7 Flow Control Center
The Flow Control Center features a concentrate flow control valve, a recycle flow
control valve, and a pressure gauge. It is located directly behind the control enclo-
sure.
1.1.8 Average Pressure
PAV G (Average Pressure) = [(PPRIMARY + PFINAL) ÷2]
1.1.9 Concentration
Concentration equals the Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) concentration of a solution
expressed as conductivity (µS/cm) or parts per million (ppm).
2
Cf= Feed Concentration
Cp= Permeate Concentration
Cc= Concentrate Concentration
Cavg = Average Concentration in Machine
1.1.10 Salt (Ionic) Passage
Ionic Salt Passage equals the percent of dissolved salts passed through the mem-
brane element or 100% minus rejection.
1.1.11 Recovery
Recovery equals permeate rate divided by feed rate and is expressed as a per-
centage. For example, 75% recovery means that out of a given feed rate, 75% is
produced as purified water (permeate).
1.1.12 Salt (Ionic) Rejection
Ionic Salt Rejection equals the percent of dissolved salt rejected by the membrane
element, calculated from an average concentration over the membrane element.
An example of how to calculate salt rejection and recovery is below:
Figure 1.3
Principles of Operation
Given the system case in Figure 1.3:
3
Average Concentration (Cavg) = [(Cf) + (Cc)]
2
= [(100 mg/L) + (375 mg/L)]
2
= 237.5 mg/L
4
Rejection = [(Cavg) - (CP)] x 100
(Cavg)
= [(237.5 mg/L) + (8.3 mg/L)] x 100
(237.5)
= 96.5%
Passage = (CP) x 100
(Cf)
= (8.3 mg/L) x 100
(237.5)
= 3.5%
Recovery = (QP) x 100
(Qf)
= (18 gpm) x 100
(24gpm)
= 75%
1.2 Machine Nomenclature
E-CE Series water purification machines are numbered in such a way as to indicate the
permeate flow you can expect from the machine and other specifications:
Example: RE, E8-CE-9, 400, 5, 66 - 75
1.3 Features
E4H-CE and E8-CE water purification machines have all the features necessary for safe,
continuous production of high-purity water. This assumes properly pretreated feed water
with a TDS ≤2000 ppm and regular operator maintenance.
·Sixty-six (66) - 75% recovery (E8-CE) or 50 -75% recovery (E4H-CE). Adjust con-
centrate and recycle flows to obtain desired recovery.
·Epoxy-coated carbon steel frame.
·Three hundred fifty (350) square foot or 85 square foot (E4H-CE) membrane ele-
ments with stainless steel (SS) membrane element housings.
