Common problems and solutions in water treatment equipment use

Expansion phenomenon of sealing rings in reverse osmosis equipment

In water treatment equipment, reverse osmosis equipment requires three types of sealing rings in the membrane shell to achieve sealing isolation between different sections of the membrane shell. To reduce installation resistance, clean water or glycerin should be applied to the surface of each sealing ring during system installation.

Special attention is needed; otherwise, it will cause cracking of the freshwater pipe, especially the expansion of the sealing ring. The expansion of the sealing ring generally does not directly affect the operation effect of the system, but it will affect the reloading after the system is unloaded, that is, the expanded sealing ring is difficult to enter the slot during loading.

Key points for selecting the installation location of the water softener

The effluent water quality of the water softener is good, and the system runs stably, which is used by many enterprises. When installing the water softener, the following points should be noted:

1. The water softener should be as close as possible to the drain.

2. If other water treatment equipment is needed, the installation location should be reserved.

3. Because salt is frequently added to the salt tank, a salt placement location should be set.

4. Do not install the water softener within 3 meters of the boiler; otherwise, hot water will flow back into the water softener, causing damage.

5. Do not place the water softener in an environment where the room temperature is below 1°C and above 49°C.

Precautions for the use of water softener

Water softener is to remove Ca, Mg and other ions in water, reduce water hardness, and soften water treatment equipment. After long-term use of water softener, certain precautions should be followed.

1. When the water softener is in use, the inlet should be kept open for a long time, unless it is necessary to close it for equipment maintenance. If you do not need to use water, you can close the outlet valve.

2. If the effluent is unqualified due to incomplete regeneration of the water softener, manual regeneration can be performed.

3. When the water softener is shut down for a long time, the brine should be sucked into the tank for protection.

4. When put into use again, just prepare the same brine as normal work, open the inlet valve first, then connect the power supply, let the equipment reset itself, and then manually regenerate it once before opening the outlet valve.

5. If the industrial salt used is too dirty, the salt tank should be cleaned once a year to ensure the smooth progress of the salt absorption process.
