system.
The OWNER and USER are responsible for complying with all the prevailing laws to maintain
a safe working environment.
IMPORTANT ITEMS FOR PLANT PROTECTION:
The RO Membrane damage possible, if there is any vacuum in the feed water
supply line or concentrate discharge line.
Do not allow any back pressure on the permeate outlet, when there is no
pressure on the feed supply, otherwise the membrane cushions will be
damaged. Do not allow pressure on the permeate side of the modules when
the unit is stopped. The maximum pressure in the permeate line is 3bar. Add an
additional booster pump, if a permanent pressure above this value is required.
The feed pressure to the high pressure pump must not fall below 0.5bar. If
this happens, the pump will be damaged by cavitations.
The membranes are not resistant against chlorine or any oxidizing agent.
De-ionized or distilled water in the unit will reverse the flow direction and
destroy the membranes.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
2.1
Description of Process
This system uses the principle of the 'Reverse Osmosis. Reverse
Osmosis is a process in which water is de-mineralized by using a semi-permeable
membrane at high pressure. If two saline liquids are separated from one another
by a semi-permeable membrane, which does only allow molecules over a certain
size to pass through, then these liquids will tend to equalize their concentrations.
This phenomenon is called Osmosis. Should one of these liquids be salt water
and the other pure water, water molecules would diffuse through the membrane
towards the salt water and dilute this. A certain pressure would occur in the
system when this happens, the pressure is known as Osmotic Pressure.
For water desalination or de-chlorination this process is artificially
reversed, Reverse Osmosis. The system is subject to a pressure above Osmotic
Pressure, causing a molecule movement into the reverse direction; only the water
molecules diffuse from the salt water through the membrane to the pure water
side. The ions of the salt water cannot pass through and remain on the salt water
side. W ithin the RO membranes, the Reverse Osmosis process takes place whilst
the feed water is in motion flowing over the membrane surfaces. About 30% of the
water in the feed water passes through the membrane, the remaining 70%
retaining the rejected salts. The feed water is gradually increasing in salt
concentration as it flows through the RO membrane. The salts filtered out and left
behind by the membrane are carried away and dis-charged, in case of sea water
desalination they are returned to the sea as brine (concentrate). The pure water
permeate produced flows to a fresh water storage facility. The amount of pure
water that can be produced depends on the following:
aThe operating pressure
bThe salt content of the feed water
cThe feed water temperature
For example, the oceans have a salt content of approximately 3%,
whereas the Red Sea has a much higher salt content of approximately 4 % and
to overcome the increase in salinity the operating pressure is increased.
Each standard system is designed for a certain production rate of pure
water, assuming a feed water temperature of 25C. For each 1C drop in feed
water temperature, the permeate production drops by 3%. For example, if
designed output at 25C is 100l/h. Then with a feed temperature of say 15C, the
permeate output is 100-30%=70l/h. A rise in temperature above 25C, increases
the pure water production only slightly. 25C is the optimum feed temperature.
Note: Some systems can be supplied to produce the required quantity with a low
feed water temperature.

3)
These pumps are virtually maintenance free because of the materials used in its
construction. If the mechanical seals leak it should be replaced as soon as possible. The
motors are totally enclosed, fan-cooled, 2-pole Grundfos standard motors with principal
dimensions in accordance with the IEC and DIN standards. Electrical tolerances
according to IEC 34/EN 60034. These pumps are used to boost the seawater through the
sand filter, carbon filter and cartridge filters.
When pumps are re-installed and the RO unit is started for the 1st time after
removal, the pumps must be purged of air. Use the air release valves to remove air from
the pump. Do not over tighten as this could damage the valve seat. It is preferred that it
should only be hand tight.

SECTIONAL DRAWING
MATERIAL
The pump consists of a base and a pump head. The pump body and
outer sleeve are fixed between the base and the pump head by means of stay bolts.
The base has inline suction and discharge ports. The pump has a free maintenance
mechanical shaft seal with dimensions to DIN 24960. The pumps should be checked
regularly for air that may be trapped in the upper chamber of the pump. In normal
operation this will not be a problem but in rough seas there could be a considerable
amount of air entrapped in the feed water.
SECTIONAL DRAWING
MATERIAL
The pump consists of a base and a pump head. The pump body and outer
sleeve are fixed between the base and the pump head by means of stay bolts. The
base, the pump head cover as well as vital pump components are made from
stainless steel. The base has inline suction and discharge ports. The pump has a free
maintenance mechanical shaft seal with dimensions to DIN 24960. The pumps should
be checked regularly for air that may be trapped in the upper chamber of the pump. In
normal operation this will not be a problem but in rough seas there could be a
considerable amount of air entrapped in the feed water.
Operation:
Starting of the Pump:
a)
Check priming of the pump both for open and closed systems.
b)
Make sure that the pump has been filled and vented.

f)
Maintenance:
Freeze Protection:
If the pumps are installed in an area where freezing could occur, the pumps and
systems should be drained during freezing temperatures to avoid damage. To drain the
pumps, close the isolation valves, remove the priming plugs and drain plugs at the base
of the pump. Do not replace the plugs until the pumps are to be used again. Always
replace the drain plugs with the original or exact replacement. Do not replace with a
standard plugs. Internal recirculation will occur, reducing the output pressure and flow.
Motor Inspection:
Inspect the motors at regular intervals, approximately every 500 hours of
operation or every three months, whichever occurs first. Keep the motors clean and the
ventilation openings clear. The following steps should be performed at each inspection:
1.
Check that the motor is clean and interior and exterior of the motor is free of dirt,
oil, grease, water, etc. Oily vapor, paper pulp, textile lint, etc can accumulate and
block motor ventilation. If the motor is not properly ventilated, overheating can
occur and cause early motor failure.
2.
Use an Ohmmeter (Megger) periodically to ensure that the integrity of the winding
insulation has been maintained. Record the Ohmmeter readings. Immediately
investigate any significant drop in insulation resistance.
3.
Motor Lubrication:
Electric motors are pre-lubricated at the factory and do not require additional
lubrication at start-up. Motors without external grease fittings have sealed bearings that
cannot be re-lubricated. Motors with grease fittings should only be lubricated with
approved types of grease. Do not over grease the bearings. Over greasing will cause
increased bearing heat and can result in bearing/motor failure. Do not mix petroleum
grease and silicon grease in bearings.

*Optional bearing flange also. **The grease outlet plug MUST be removed before adding new grease.
1.
Clean all grease fittings. If the motor does not have grease fittings, the bearing is
sealed and cannot be greased externally.
2.
If the motors are equipped with a grease outlet plug, remove it. This will allow the
old grease to be displaced by the new grease.
3.
If the motors are stopped, add the recommended amount of grease. If the motor is
to be greased while running, add a slightly greater quantity of grease.
4.
For motors equipped with a grease outlet plug, let the motor run for 20 minutes
before replacing the plug.
Regular Checkups:
At regular intervals depending on the conditions and time of operation, the
following checks should be made:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Check operation of all controls & unit control cycling twice and adjust, if required.
7.
If the pumps are not operated for unusually long periods, the unit should be
maintained accordingly. In addition, if the pumps are not drained, the pump shafts
should be manually rotated or run for short periods of time at monthly intervals. If
the pumps fail to operate or there is a loss of performance.
Motor Replacement:
If the motor is damaged due to bearing / electrical failure or burning, follow the
instructions for motor removal / replacement. It must be emphasized that motors used on
CR pumps are specifically selected to our rigid specifications. Replacement of motors
must be of the same frame, size & be equipped with the same or better bearings of the
same service factor. Failure to follow these recommendations may result in premature
motor failure.

are permissible. Add 1/2 PSI inlet pressure per each degree F over 130F. RPM changes
may be required.
C.A.T.: Installation of a C.A.T. (Captive Acceleration Tube) is recommended in
applications with stressful inlet conditions such as high temperatures, booster pump feed,
long inlet lines/valves.
DISCHARGE CONDITIONS: Open all valves before starting system to avoid deadhead
overpressure condition and severe damage to the pump or system. Install a Pulsation
Dampening device on the discharge head or in the discharge line as close to the head as
possible. Be certain the pulsation dampener is properly pre-charged for the system
pressure. A reliable Pressure Gauge should be installed near the discharge outlet of the
high pressure manifold. This is extremely important for adjusting pressure regulating
devices and also for proper sizing of the nozzle or restricting orifice. The pump is rated for
a maximum pressure; the pressure which would be read at the discharge manifold of the
pump, not at the gun/ nozzle.
Use PTFE thread tape or pipe thread sealant (sparingly) to connect accessories or
plumbing. Exercise caution not to wrap tape beyond the last thread to avoid tape from
becoming lodged in the pump or accessories. This condition will cause a malfunction of
the pump or system.
PRESSURE REGULATION: All systems require both a primary pressure regulating
device (i.e., regulator, un-loader) and a secondary pressure safety relief device (i.e., popoff valve, safety valve). The primary pressure device must be installed on the discharge
side of the pump. The function of the primary pressure regulating device is to protect the
pump from over pressurization, which can be caused by a plugged or closed off
discharge line. Over pressurization can severely damage the pump, other system
components and can cause bodily harm. The secondary safety relief device must be
installed in-line between the primary device and pump or on the opposite side of the
manifold head. This will ensure pressure relief of the system if the primary regulating
device fails. Failure to install such a safely device will void the warranty on the pump. If a
large portion of the pumped liquid is by-passed (not used) when the high pressure system
is running, this by-pass liquid should be routed to an adequately sized, baffled supply
tank or to drain. If routed to the pump inlet, the by-pass liquid can quickly develop
excessive heat and result in damage to the pump. A temperature control device to
shut the system down within the pump limits or multiple THERMO VALVES must be
installed in the by-pass line to protect the pump.
NOZZLES: A worn nozzle will result in loss of pressure. Do not adjust pressure regulating
device to compensate. Replace nozzle and reset regulating device to system pressure.
PUMPED LIQUIDS: Some liquids may require a flush between operations or before
storing.
STORING: For extended storing or between use in cold climates, drain all pumped liquids
from pump and flush with antifreeze solution to prevent freezing and damage to the
pump. Do not run pump with frozen liquid.
WARNING: All systems require both a primary pressure regulating device (i.e., regulator,
un-loader) and a secondary pressure safety relief device (i.e., pop-off valve, safety valve).
Failure to install such relief devices could result in personal injury or damage to the pump
or to system components. CAT PUMPS does not assume any liability or responsibility for
the operation of a customers high pressure system.
CAUTION: Before commencing with service, shut off drive (electric motor, gas or diesel
engine) and turn off water supply to pump. Relieve all discharge line pressure by
triggering gun or opening valve in discharge line. After servicing is completed, turn on
water supply to pump, start drive, reset pressure regulating device and secondary valve,
read system pressure on the gauge at the pump head. Check for any leaks, vibration or
pressure fluctuations and resume operation.

Temperatures above 130F are permissible. Add 1/2 PSI inlet pressure per each
degree F over 130F. Elastomer or RPM changes may be required.
Avoid closed loop systems especially with high temperature, ultra-high pressure or
large volumes. Conditions vary with regulating/unloader valve.
Low vapor pressure liquids, such as solvents, require a booster pump and C.A.T. to
maintain adequate inlet supply.
Higher viscosity liquids require a positive head and a C.A.T. to assure adequate inlet
supply.
Higher temperature liquids tend to vaporize and require positive heads and C.A.T. to
assure adequate inlet supply.
Line size must be a minimum of one size larger than the pump inlet fitting. Avoid
tees, 90 degree elbows or valves in the inlet line of the pump to reduce the risk of
flow restriction and cavitations.
The line MUST be a FLEXIBLE hose, NOT a rigid pipe, and reinforced on SUCTION
systems to avoid collapsing.
The simpler the inlet plumbing the less the potential for problems. Keep the length to
a minimum, the number of elbows and joints to a minimum (ideally no elbows) and
the inlet accessories to a minimum.
Acceleration loss of liquids may be increased by high RPM, high temperatures, low
vapor pressures or high viscosity and may require pressurized inlet and C.A.T. to
maintain adequate inlet supply. DO NOT USE C.A.T WITH SUCTION INLET.
Optimum pump performance is obtained with +20 PSI (1.4 BAR) inlet pressure and
a C.A.T. for certain applications. With adequate inlet plumbing, most pumps will
perform with flooded suction. Maximum inlet pressure is 70 PSI (4.9 BAR).
After prolonged storage, pump should be rotated by hand and purged of air to
facilitate priming. Disconnect the discharge port and allow liquid to pass through
pump and measure flow.
INLET ACCESSORIES are designed to protect against over-pressurization, control
inlet flow, contamination or temperature and provide ease of servicing.
A stand pipe can be used in some applications to help maintain a positive head at
the pump inlet line.
Inspect and clean inlet filters on a regular schedule to avoid flow restriction.
All accessories should be compatible with the solution being pumped to prevent
premature failure.
Optional inlet protection can be achieved by installing a pressure cut off switch
between the inlet filter and the pump to shut off pump when there is no positive inlet
pressure.
BY-PASS TO INLET Care should be exercised when deciding the method of bypass from control valves.
Although not recommended, by-pass liquid may be returned to the inlet line of the
pump if the system is properly designed to protect your pump. When a pulsation
dampener is used, a PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE must be installed on the inlet
line (BETWEEN THE BY-PASS CONNECTION AND THE INLET TO THE PUMP)
to avoid excessive pressure to the inlet of the pump. It is also recommended that a
THERMO VALVE be used in the by-pass line to monitor the temperature build-up in
the by-pass loop to avoid premature seal failure.
A reinforced, flexible, low pressure hose rated up to 300 PSI should be used for
routing by-pass back to the pump inlet.
Caution should be exercised not to undersize the by-pass hose diameter and length.
Refer to Technical Bulletin 064 for additional information on the size and length of
the by-pass line
Check the pressure in the by-pass line to avoid over-pressurizing the inlet.
The by-pass line should be connected to the pump inlet line at a gentle angle of 45
or less and no closer than 10 times the pump inlet port diameter e.g. 1-1/2" port size
= 15" distance from pump inlet port.
One or several of the conditions shown in the chart below may contribute to
cavitations in a system resulting in premature wear, system downtime and
unnecessary operating costs.

If no problems are found with other system components, shut down system and
inspect pump. Check for debris in valves. Change seals and record hours for your
preventative maintenance schedule. Typically valves should be replaced at every other
seal replacement. After maintenance is performed continue to monitor all system
components. Often it is other elements in the system that will be the cause of poor
performance. In order to protect the pump, always inspect the entire system when there is
a decrease in system performance.
Preventative Maintenance
The best safeguards against unplanned shut-down or system failure are good
preventative maintenance practices and proper pump diagnosis. Cat Pumps triplex pump
design offers easy on-site maintenance without the use of special tools, making a routine
maintenance achievable without difficulty. Each pump has a Data Sheet, Service Manual
and Diagnosis Chart to simplify the periodic servicing required. Every installation differs
from one another, so a unique maintenance schedule may be required. Below you will
find more information about adopting a proper maintenance schedule as well as how to
diagnose any pump issues.

If other than CAT PUMPS special multi-viscosity ISO68 oil is used, change cycle
should be every 300 hours. ** Each systems maintenance cycle will be exclusive. If
system performance decreases, check immediately. If no wear at 1500 hours, check
again at 2000 hours and each 500 hours until wear is observed. Valves typically
require changing every other seal change. Duty cycle, temperature, quality of pumped
liquid and inlet feed conditions all effect the life of pump wear parts and service cycle.
** Remember to service the regulator/un-loader at each seal servicing and check all
system accessories and connections before resuming operation.

Important Information
Proper start-up of reverse osmosis water treatment systems is essential to
prepare the membranes for operating service and to prevent membrane damage due to
overfeeding or hydraulic shock. Following the proper start-up sequence also helps to
ensure that system operating parameters conform to design specifications so that system
water quality and productivity goals can be achieved.
Before initiating system start-up procedures, membrane pretreatment, loading of
the membrane elements, instrument calibration and other system checks should be
completed.
Operation Guidelines
Avoid any abrupt pressure or cross-flow variations on the spiral elements during
start-up, shutdown, cleaning or other sequences to prevent possible membrane damage.
During start-up, a gradual change from a standstill to operating state is recommended as
follows:
Feed pressure should be increased gradually over a 30-60 second time frame.
Cross-flow velocity at set operating point should be achieved gradually over 15-20
seconds.
General Information
If operating limits and guidelines not followed properly, the limited Warranty will be null
and void.
The customer is fully responsible for the effects of incompatible chemicals and
lubricants on elements.
Max. Pressure drop across an entire pressure vessel (housing) is 50 psi (3.4 bar).
Notice: The use of this product in and of itself does not necessarily guarantee the removal of cysts
and pathogens from water. Effective cyst and pathogen reduction is dependent on the
complete system design and on the operation and maintenance of the system.

INTENDED USE:
The PPWT Pressure Vessels are designed for continuous use as housing
for membrane filtration elements to purify typical seawater waters at any positive pressure
up to 1000PSI. These vessel can accommodate any make of eight-inch nominal diameter
spiral-wound element as well as many hollow fiber elements. The element interface
hardware for the specified element is supplied with the vessel. These vessels must be
installed, operated and maintained using good industrial practice and following the
precautions listed in order to help assure safe operation and a long service life. Misuse,
improper installation or operation may result in severe bodily harm or property damage
and will void the vessel warranty. Any undue restraint at the support points or piping
connections can cause non-repairable leaks to develop in the shell. This vessel must not
be subjected to excessive stress caused by bending moments acting at the side ports in
the fiberglass shell. The end closures of the vessel must be kept dry and free of corrosion
at all times. Failure to do so may result in deterioration that can lead to catastrophic
failure of the vessel heads.
PRECAUTIONS:
>
Mount shell using furnished hardware and flexible type groove-end pipe
couplings.
>
>
Inspect end closures regularly and relieve system pressure before working.
>
Never support other components with the vessel and never support other
components with the vessel.
>
>
Ensure that the Thrust Ring is installed downstream and double check end
closure installation.
>
Never operate the vessel in excess of its ratings, do not operate the vessel
permeate port over 125 psi and operate the vessel in only positive pressure
applications.
>
Flush the vessel before system shut down and operate the vessel within the
recommended pH range.
