When preparing chemical solutions for cleaning, be certain that all chemicals are
dissolved and well mixed before introducing them into the R.O. unit.
During re-circulation, temperatures must not exceed 40
°
C.
All chemicals to be used for cleaning and treatment, must be handled with extreme care.
They cause irritation of skin, eyes, nose and throat. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact

used direct. Use gloves and protection glasses.
MT-10 CHEMICAL CLEANING

10-15 % below rated flow or the conductivity has increased to 1200
µ
S/cm.
On units equipped with conductivity control/alarm, the alarm will be released at 1200
µS/cm.
The MT-10 shall also be used as an ”pre-cleaning” before a sterilisation with MT-5
solution is done.
Preparing MT-10
Add one plastic bottle of MT-10 into the 40 litres cleaning tank containing product water.
