Part 1 – Operating Instructions
EcoRO Dia I/II (HT)
Part 1 • Chapter 2
2.1
Operational features
•
Emergency mode with soft water possible
•
Modular construction: the system performance can be changed merely by replacing/supplementing
the pumps and membranes
•
One-stage emergency mode for the first reverse osmosis stage or the second osmosis membrane
possible
•
Standby mode: when it is not in permeate mode, the system regularly switches to a rinsing mode
to prevent microbiological growth
•
Impulse shear force rinsing of the loop (high flow speed) during night-time mode to prevent the
formation of biofilms
•
Impulse back washing: a regular rinsing mode removes deposits on the membranes.
•
Hot water sanitation: In combination with a hot-water cleaning system (Aquaboss
®
HotRinse
SMART 10-50), the EcoRO Dia I/II (HT) version can be sanitised with hot water up to 85°C / 185°F.
2.2
Essential Performance
•
Production of pure water (permeate with a low salt concentration) to dilute haemodialysis concentrates.
2.3
Application regulations
•
No products or media are to be processed which, under the influence of pressure and temperature,
tend to cause uncontrolled reactions such as higher viscosity, higher temperature, hardening, frothing
or the generation of gas which could cause the system limit values to be exceeded even for only
a short time.
•
The raw water must be treated in a correctly designed pretreatment stage.
•
A pretreatment stage can only be carried out subject to previous
water analysis
or the details
provided by the municipal water suppliers. The values of the incoming raw water must be checked
and recorded once a year. (See
part 1, chapter 2 ff).
•
The system operator is to apply for a water analysis once every year.
•
The municipal water suppliers (water board) must be consulted regarding the water quality/chlorination.
A corresponding sample letter can be found in
•
The local regulations for connecting the concentrate to the waste water drainage system must be
observed (this also applies to draining disinfectant into the waste water system).
•
Supply and waste water systems must be properly installed according local and national regulations.
Local regulations for drinking water and waste water installations must be observed where necessary.
•
Under certain conditions of use, the system can be used for other application purposes; these must be
agreed in advance with the manufacturer, however.
•
Intended use also includes observance of the commissioning, operating and maintenance instructions
provided by the manufacturer, which are an integral part of these instructions.
•
The system may only be transported, installed, used and repaired by skilled workers.
•
Commissioning, operation and maintenance is only to be carried out by authorized, trained skilled
workers. Electrical work is to be carried out only by authorized, trained and instructed electricians.
•
Any other use of the system is considered as non-intended use. The manufacturer shall not be liable
for any damage resulting from this.
IMPORTANT The chemical and microbial water parameters for the permeate are to be checked every year
against ANSI, CSA and ISO.
WARNING
Misuse, imintended use or handling of chemical disinfectants and chemical cleaning solu-
tions could result in serious unjury or even death. You must comply with the information
contained in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) see also part 1 for the chemical being
used and follow the procedural steps in these operating instructions.
