DAILY MEMBRANE CLEANING
• Rinse the sugar water out of the equipment using 5 gallons of permeate and recover it in
the sap tank.
• Complete the rinse by draining with 5 gallons of permeate.
• Using a 5-gallon bucket of permeate at 80 °F, add 1/4 cup of Super Flow Green membrane
cleaner.
• Place the suction tube
(yellow
)
, permeate tube
(blue
)
, and concentrate tube
(red
)
into the wash solution bucket.
• Open the concentrate control valve.
• Run the equipment in a closed loop into the wash solution bucket for 30 minutes.
• Once the wash is finished, flush the solution to drain.
• Repeat the wash if the wash solution is coloured or cloudy.
• Rinse the equipment with no less than 10 to 15 gallons of clean permeate
PROTECT FROM FREEZING
• Protect the equipment from freezing during temporary storage.
• If the equipment must remain in a cold place, remove the filters and drain the equipment
properly. Reinstall filter housing and run the pump dry for a few minutes. This will partially
remove water from the system and prevent frost damage to the pumps and other parts.
• Make sure there is no water remaining in the equipment and lines.
• The equipment may need to be thawed with warm water when it’s ready to be used again.
• Make sure that all pumps are ice-free before using the equipment. Small pieces of ice may
damage the pumps. Thaw the pumps with a hair dryer or by pouring warm water over them.
IMPORTANT NOTES
• It is always best to keep the equipment in an area that is above freezing temperature.
• If the equipment is moved through freezing weather, make sure it is drained properly before
exposing it to cold temperature.
