4.4.2
Peracetic Acid/Peroxide-Based (Renalin®) Disinfection Preparation
WARNING:
Always wear rubber gloves, apron and face mask. Use proper ventilation during
disinfection and rinse out. A face respirator with an organic cartridge to remove fumes
may be worn. DO NOT BREATHE FUMES OR ALLOW RENALIN
/ MINNCARE
TO COME IN CONTACT WITH SKIN OR EYES. Follow all Material Safety Data
Sheet (MSDS) precautions and OSHA Standards.
WARNING:
Label machine with appropriate warning signs such as "Do Not Use / Contains
Disinfectant" to prevent use of the RO until it is properly rinsed.
CAUTION:
When ‘RENALIN
®
’ is to be used as a disinfectant, several preparatory steps are required
by GE Osmonics as well as the membrane manufacturer. Failure to comply with these
instructions, which incorporate instructions from the membrane manufacturer, will
jeopardize the system performance and warranty.
a. The system must be free of all incompatible materials.
b. Clean the membranes with an acid such as 0.1% HCl or 0.4% phosphoric acids.
Calcium and Iron Cleaner may be used as an alternate. It is essential that all iron and
other transition metals be removed from the membrane surface.
c. Any deposits on the membrane must be removed with a Silt and Organics cleaner.
Removal of these deposits, which harbor microorganisms, will maximize the
effectiveness of the disinfection.
CAUTION:
The RO system must be disconnected from the tempered water source (if present). The
solution temperature must be monitored closely. At temperatures above 77
º
F / 25
º
C the
‘RENALIN
®
’ solution becomes very aggressive towards the RO membranes and will
damage them in a short period of time. The disinfection procedure will raise the
temperature of the solution. The operator must be prepared to add ice to the solution or
discontinue the procedure when the water temperature approaches 77
º
F / 25
º
C.
CAUTION:
New replacement thin film membranes must be rinsed to drain with normal pressures for
a minimum of three (3) hours before first exposure to disinfectants, or irreversible
damage may occur.
