REVERSE OSMOSIS TROUBLESHOOTING
SYMPTOMS
POSSIBLE CAUSES
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Low Inlet Pressure
Low supply pressure
Increase inlet pressure
Cartridge filters plugged
Change filters
Solenoid valve malfunction
Replace sol. valve and/or coil
Motor may not be drawing correct current
Use clamp-on amp meter to check the
motor amp draw.
Leaks
Fix any visible leaks
Low Permeate Flow
Cold feed water
See temperature correction sheet
Low operating pressure
See low inlet pressure
Defective membrane brine seal
Inspect and/or replace brine seal
Fouled or scaled membrane
Clean membranes
High permeate flow
Damaged product tube o-rings
Inspect and/or replace
Damaged or oxidized membrane
Replace membrane
Exceeding maximum feed water
temperature
See temperature correction sheet
Poor permeate quality
Low operating pressure
See low inlet pressure
Damage product tube o-rings
Inspect and/or replace
Damaged or oxidized membrane
Replace membrane
Membrane fouling
Metal Oxide Fouling
Improve pretreatment to remove metals.
Clean with acid cleaners.
Colloidal Fouling
Optimize pretreatment for colloid
removal. Clean with high pH anionic
cleaners.
Scaling (CaSO4, CaSO3, BaSO4, SiO2)
Increase acid addition and antiscalant
dosage for CaVO3 and CaCO4. Reduce
recovery. Clean with acid cleaners
Biological Fouling
Shock dosage of Sodium Bi-Sulfate.
Continuous feed of Sodium Bi-Sulfate at
reduced pH.
Chlorination and de-chlorination.
Replace cartridge filters.
Organic Fouling
Activated Carbon or other pretreatment.
Clean with high pH cleaner.
Chlorine Oxidation
Check Chlorine feed equipment and de-
chlorination system.
Abrasion of membrane by Crystalline
Material
Improve pretreatment. Check all filters
for media leakage.
