- Permeate flow rate and salt rejection based on the following test conditions: 2,000 ppm NaCl, 225 psi (8.6 bar), 77°F(25°C), pH 8, 15% recovery. Permeate flow rates for individual elements may vary +/-15%.
- Maximum temperature for continuous operation above pH 10 is 95°F (35°C).
- Under certain conditions, the presence of free chlorine and other oxidizing agents will cause premature membrane failure. Since oxidation damage is not covered under warranty, Dow recommends removing residual free chlorine by pretreatment prior to membrane exposure. Most RO systems have carbon pre-filters for this purpose
- Active area guaranteed ±3%. Active area as stated by Dow Water & Process Solutions is not comparable to nominal
- Membrane area often stated by some manufacturers.
