Measures for Protecting the Membrane
The following protective measures safeguard the function of the
membrane filter and maximize its service life:
• Washing out
The work step ”washing out” is to be carried out:
• After each operation,
• Between each maintenance step (disinfection, cleaning, pre-
serving, frost protection),
• Between the different cleaning steps in order to avoid interac-
tions between the cleaning agents.
• Clean
It should be cleaned if during operation
• a difference in pressure of more than 6 bar is determined
between the input and output of the membrane filter,
• the output decreases by more than 150 l/h compared with the
starting value,
• the pressure for reaching the rated output (1 600 l/h) exceeds
the starting value by more than 6 bar.
• Preserve
when not in use or during operating intervals > 60 h.
Preservation has two aims:
• to prolong the service life of the system components by
removing waste-water from the system.
• to avoid biological contamination of the system.
• Protect against frost
if there is danger of frost occurring.
