INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing our Nano RO 2- or 3-membrane system. Please read this manual
carefully before installation and start-up.
The CDL 2- or 3-membrane Nano RO is a simple and effective tool for maple and birch sap
concentration. Its three-stage prefiltration removes impurities like suspended solids and larger
organic matter to better protect membranes and improve overall system performance.
Remarks and instructions
1. Read the instructions before installing and operating the RO system.
2. To avoid damage to the system, do not disassemble it unnecessarily. Disassembling and
reassembling parts may cause breaks or leaks.
3. For your safety, it is recommended to plug the unit into a GFCI electrical outlet.
4. To make sure that the system runs normally, be sure to use cleaning chemicals and filters
supplied by CDL.
5. Please handle, install, and move the unit with care to avoid damaging the more delicate
parts.
6. Before beginning operation, install the membranes and the 5-micron filters in their
respective housings.
7. Wash and rinse the system thoroughly before concentrating the sap (see daily membranes
cleaning page 18).
8. During concentration, do not exceed 100 psi for the 3-membrane system and 70 psi for the
2-membrane system. In the 2-membrane system, the concentrate flow must be double the
permeate flow. Since the 2-membrane unit does not have a recirculation pump to ensure
proper cross-flow circulation, it is important to follow those rules to prevent membrane
fouling.
9. This system is not designed for concentrations exceeding 5 to 6 degrees Brix for the
3-membrane unit (which has a recirculation pump) and 4 degrees Brix in batch mode for the
2-membrane unit (which does not have a recirculation pump). Concentration capacity varies
depending on the condition of the membranes, the temperature and quality of the sap, and
the operating pressure.
