10. (For use with the Scepter housing) Slowly open the permeate flow control valve forScepter applications HV-3016. Open valve 1 to 2 psi increments. Let system run for15 seconds. Open valve again an additional 1 to 2 psi, wait 15 seconds. Continue toopen valve and wait 15 seconds as described above until you reach desiredrecirculation permeate back pressure.11. If applicable, slowly open the cooling control supply and return valves (customersupply) and set cooling supply flow to reach the desired recirculation temperature.12. The system is ready for another mode <strong>of</strong> operation. Please see headings forProduction, CIP, or Flush.13. Press the stop button on the control panel to stop the Feed pump.NOTE: Several adjustments to the pump drive controller may be necessary to obtain the idealcondition. Typically Recirculation is run at pressures approximately 100 psi for RO orNF applications and 15 psi for UF, MF, or Scepter applications. When running theScepter module, the baseline pressure should always exceed the permeate back pressure.CAUTION: The plant is in recirculation and can run in this mode indefinitely provided thetemperature does not exceed recommended high temperature limits by the membranesupplier. The system is equipped with a cooling heat exchanger and should be usedwhen running in recirculation mode or CIP. Consult the membrane supplier fortemperature limitations.CAUTION:Never shut down the system with product in it without doing a full CIP exceptin an emergency situation. Many feed materials become very difficult to cleanand remove once they have cooled to room temperature.32
