Membrane Element Handling and System Storage Warnings
Freezing Temperatures
Caution: The System must be protected from freezing if it will be exposed to temperatures
below 32°F (0°C). Freezing temperatures will cause extensive damage to the System as the
water expands during the freezing process. Resulting damage to the System caused by
freezing temperatures is the liability of the Operator.
Caution: DO NOT subject the System to temperatures below 32°F (0°C), unless the System
has been rinsed with a solution of Product Water with 20% food-grade Glycerin
(Propylene-Glycol).
RO Membrane Element Handling
Caution: Never store the RO Membrane Element or Membrane/Vessel Assembly in direct
sunlight. Never expose the RO Membrane Element or Membrane/Vessel Assembly to storage
temperatures above 120ºF (50ºC) or below 32ºF (0ºC). High temperatures may cause
irreversible damage and up to 40% production loss in the RO Membrane Element. Freezing
temperatures cause mechanical System damage, as well as irreversible damage to the RO
Membrane Element.
Caution: The RO Membrane Element must remain wet at all times. Never allow the RO
Membrane Element to dry out, as drying out may cause up to 40% production loss, as well
as irreversible damage. Some, but not all, production may be restored by saturating the RO
Membrane Element in Product Water for several days, and then operating the System by
feeding Product Water into the System for a continuous 48-hour period.
Caution: Never expose the RO Membrane Element to chemicals other than those supplied
by Horizon Reverse Osmosis. Use caution when operating the system in harbors that may
be polluted with chemicals, oil or fuel, as these chemicals may damage the RO Membrane
Element beyond repair.
Caution: Protect the RO Membrane Element from biological fouling, as it may cause significant
production loss. Some, but not all, production may be restored after cleaning. The System
must be protected from biological fouling if it will not be operated over a period of two (2)
weeks or more.
