HRO CC-1 , Cleaning Compound "# 1" is an
alkaline cleaner designed to clean biological fouling
and slight oil fouling from the R.O. Membrane
Element. Biological fouling is usually the first
cause of the R.O. Membrane Element fouling. The
system is constantly exposed to seawater, and
biological growth occurs from the first day forward.
If exposed to seawater and left to sit, the R.O.
Membrane Elements become unusable and un-
cleanable even with no actual system use. This
fouling can only be minimized with fresh water
rinsing whenever the system is not in use.
HRO CC-2, Cleaning Compound "# 2" is an acid
cleaner designed to clean calcium carbonate and
other mineral deposits from the R.O. Membrane
Element. Mineral fouling is usually a very slow
process, which takes place over many hours of use.
Therefore, if the System has relatively few hours of
use yet shows signs of R.O. Membrane Element
fouling then that fouling is likely biological fouling.
If the System has in excess of 1000 hours of use
then there may be some mineral fouling combined
with biological fouling.
HRO CC-3, Cleaning Compound "# 3" is used for
iron fouling only and is not included in the HRO CC
kit. If the HRO R.O. membrane elements are fouled
with rust from iron piping then HRO CC-3 may be
used for effective rust removal of lightly or
moderate rust fouling. R.O. Membrane Elements,
which are heavily fouled with rust may not be
recoverable as rust not only fouls the Membrane
Element but also damages the membrane surface.
CAUTION: DO NOT MIX DIFFERENT
CLEANING CHEMICALS TOGETHER. DO
NOT USE DIFFERENT CLEANING
CHEMICALS TOGETHER AT THE SAME
TIME. MIX THE CLEANING CHEMICALS
SEPARATELY AND USE THEM
SEPARATELY.
E. R.O. MEMBRANE ELEMENT CLEANING
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Back Wash and rinse the Multi Media Filter, if
installed.
2. Close the Inlet Sea Cock Valve [2].
3. Replace all of the Pre-filtration Cartridges with
new HRO Systems supplied Pre-filtration
Elements.
DO NOT INSTALL THE
OIL/WATER SEPARATOR ELEMENT AT
THIS TIME.
4. If not already connected, connect the
RINSE/CLEAN INLET line from the Rinse/Clean
Inlet Valve [4] to the pick up point of the
Rinse/Clean Tank [50].
The Rinse/Clean Tank should be minimum 10
to maximum 20 gallons in size.
5. Fill the Rinse/Clean Tank [50] full with non-
chlorinated product water. The cleaning tank
must contain enough product water to rinse the
system until all of the feed water is displaced.
6. Position the Rinse/Clean Outlet Valve [4] to the
Brine Discharge (normal operation) position.
7. Open the Back Pressure Regulating Valve [33] full
open counter clockwise.
8. Operate the system by pressing the “Start” switch.
The rinse water rinses the entire Horizon Seafari
system and discharges out to waste.
9. Just prior to depleting the rinse water from the tank
stop the system.
10. Refill the Rinse/Clean Tank [50] with 10 -20
gallons (38 - 75 liters) of non-chlorinated product
water.
