INTRODUCTION
Water is an important part of all process applications. In order to
always provide the highest quality of water to the end consumer,
we must make sure to have all the required parameters for
each application. Correct information is important in order to
safeguard the welfare of consumers when it comes to water
quality for food processing, beverages or whatever the final
application may be. Proper selection of treatment technology
must be evaluated in a case by case basis.
The physical, chemical and microbiological characteristics of
water vary from one source to another. Proper water analysis is
important in order to know the unique parameters of the water
to be treated. Remember that water is a universal solvent and
each water supply has dierent quality characteristics.
It is worth mentioning that in water analysis: dissolved solids (ions
or dissolved minerals) whose concentration determine water
salinity is measured as TDS (total dissolved solids) or electrical
conductivity. Suspended solids and colloids are the ones that
give the characteristics of water turbidity. Organic components
and micro-biological and other chemical parameters such as pH,
dissolved gases, hardness, silica and dissolved metals are equally
important to determine the quality of incoming water to any
water conditioning process.
Tritton IXC-850 RO systems have been designed and tested
to provide high quality water and are built with quality com-
ponents that provide you not just high grade water, but also
gives you full condence in its operation and durability.

I. Principles of Reverse Osmosis Technology
How the Reverse Osmosis process works?
Reverse Osmosis (RO) is a process in which water is forced to pass
through a semipermeable membrane by pressure.
As the water passes through the membrane dissolved particles
are rejected by the membrane in its spiral layers of semipermeable
material formed around a central perforated tube.
Semipermeable Membrane
The Reverse Osmosis system uses the properties of a microporous
membrane that works as an ecient particulate lter up to the
size of chemical molecules or ions.The rejection of these particles
is compared to molecular weight and ionic charge. For example,
we can expect a 90% rejection of sodium chloride, which means
that the product passing through the membrane will have a
concentration of about one tenth of the incoming water. The
rejection of calcium carbonate (hardness) will be about 95%,
while most of the salts will be rejected approximately 98% to 99%.
Ion rejection or organic material is basically done by mechanical
ltration. Most substances with molecular weight of more than
100 will be completely rejected by the membrane. Particles with
very low molecular weight such as formaldehyde or free phenol
can pass through the membrane (RO), like most dissolved gases.
Disposal of unwanted particles is accomplished by constant flow
of water that is circulating, making the function of rinsing the
membrane, which prevents saturating surface and reduces the
tendency to form scale.
Factors that aect the operation and
life of the membrane
There are 5 main factors aecting the Reverse Osmosis membrane:
1. Pressure: Excessive pressure may deform and compress the
membrane which can cause decrease water production.
2. Hydrolysis: It is a chemical reaction of water that aects the
membrane. This happens when the water temperature is very
high and the pH is below 2.5 or above 7. To avoid this, keep the
pH between 5 and 6.
3. Bacterium: The presence of bacteria deteriorates the surface
layer of the membrane and reduces the ability of the membrane
to reject salts.
4. Temperature: Avoid temperatures above 95° F (35° C) to avoid
damaging the membrane structure.
5. Saturation: These are salts (calcium carbonate, etc.) that are
precipitated on the membrane. These salts clog the pores and
channels reducing the amount of water produced.
Temperature in Reverse Osmosis units:
The units are designed for a temperature of 77° F (25° C). The
production ow is reduced at low temperatures. On average
membranes lose at least 1.8% of production for each degree
below 77° F.
Some common terms and definitions
related to Reverse Osmosis
Incoming (feed) water- Pre-filtered and softened water introduced
to the Reverse Osmosis modules.
Product Water - Puried water produced by Reverse Osmosis
membranes.
Water Concentrate (rejection) - High waste containing water
(reject) that goes directly to the drain.
Membrane - Internal semipermeable element core of your
Reverse Osmosis system.
Module - is the complete membrane inside a pressure vessel.
GPD (Gallons per day) - Unit of measure which determines the
water production of the membranes. (maximum working 24
hours / day).
PPM (Parts per million) - Method used to measure the quality of
water in the Reverse Osmosis.
Percentage Recovery - The amount of water recovered through
the membranes. Example: If you enter 100 gallons of water into
the membrane, and produce 60 gallons of clean water to 40 gallons
of reject water, this means the RO System has a 60% recovery.
Percentage Rejection - The amount of salts and chemicals rejected
or removed by Reverse Osmosis membranes.

II.- SYSTEM COMPONENTS
1. PREFILTER PRESSURE GAUGE: Glycerin lled pressure gauge
(0-100 psi). Standard on all units and is located on the front of the
panel.This gauge measures the water pressure in PSI at the outlet
of the pre-lter, a minimum pressure of 30 PSI is recommended.
2. SYSTEM PRESSURE GAUGE: Glycerin lled pressure gauge
(0-300 psi). Standard on all units. Located in front of the panel and
indicates the pump pressure discharge. This gauge measures the
pressure of water in PSI which is applied through the membrane.
(Maximum recommended operating pressure is 180 - 200 PSI,
depending on the type of membrane).
The operating pressure of the system can be adjusted by
regulating these combined valves:
- Turning waste valve handle to the right the pressure increases;
turning the valve handle to the left pressure will decrease.
- By adjusting the recirculation valve located next to the waste
valve above.
- Turn right to increase pressure and close recirculation flow
or turn the handle to the left to decrease pressure and open
recirculation ow.
3. CONCENTRATE WATER FLOWMETER (WASTE): Located on
the front of the panel, this meter is calibrated in gallons per
minute. Its purpose is to measure the amount of waste water that
the system is producing.
4. PRODUCT WATER FLOWMETER (PERMEATE): Located on
the front panel, its purpose is to measure the amount of product
water in gallons per minute.
5. REVERSE OSMOSIS MODULE: It consists of a membrane
housing and the membrane. The assembly is placed horizontal
on IXC- 850 model.
6. WASTE VALVE: This valve is located on the front panel. Its
purpose is to restrict the ow of concentrated water leaving the
module, it creates the necessary pressure inside the module so
that water is forced into the membrane creating the Reverse
Osmosis eect.
Turning the valve knob will control the ratio of water discharged/
water produced.
- Turning clockwise will increase pressure inside of the module and
reduce the amount of waste water.
- Turning counterclockwise will decrease pressure within the
module and increase the amount of waste water.
CAUTION! DO NOT CLOSE THIS VALVE COMPLETELY.

WATER PURIFICATION SYSTEM
SERIES IXC-850
CAUTION! KEEP IN MIND THE RECOVERY PRODUCT/
REJECTION SUGGESTED BY YOUR DEALER BASED
ON WATER ANALYSIS DONE.
CAUTION! WASTE VALVE SHOULD NEVER BE
COMPLETELY SHUT.
WARNING! DO NOT EXCEED THE RECOMMENDED
PRESSURE OF MEMBRANE PARAMETERS.
7. RECIRCULATION VALVE: This valve is located on the upper
front panel. Its propose is to adjust the amount of waste water
that recirculates into the feed water of the system. It is used to
refine and adjust pump pressure. You should be cautious of
the incoming waters charecteristics, not to exceed the rate
of salinization with imbedded tendency such as calcium,
magnesium, silica and avoid membrane fouling problems.
8. PRE-FILTER: This filter is a 5-micron pre-filter. It is used to
remove any particles that may have passed through pre-
treatment or released by pretreatment materials. After this
sediment filter there is a second filtration stage, a 5-micron
carbon block filter. If the cartridge is dirty it can cause
pressure loss.
9. HIGH PRESSURE PUMP: This creates high pressure for
proper Reverse Osmosis operation. The pressure of the system
is adjusted by the waste valve and the recirculation valve.
Additionally, if necessary, this pump has a pressure increase
screw at the top of the pump, the pressure increases by turning
the screw to the right and the pressure decreases by loosening
the screw to the left. This screw is already adjusted when the
system has been factory tested.
CAUTION! NEVER USE THE PUMP WITHOUT WATER.
10. CONTROL BOX: The Reverse Osmosis system is designed to
be automatically operated by an electronic controller.The EC-100
controller monitors the operation parameters of the system and
sends continuous information to the screen.
In addition, the system has security features integrated into its
design to protect components and continuously monitor the
quality of product water produced.
Pump Motor overload - Amperage surges are addressed by a
thermal relay located on the motor contactor installed for the
high-pressure pump.
Start Timer delay - The start delay or pump start delay is
10 seconds. This helps detect potential problems with the
solenoid valve or voltage spikes.
Low Pressure Switch- Protects the high-pressure pump to not
operate without water, detects no or low pressure in the system
and immediately shuts down the system and sends an alarm to
the screen. Low pressure switch is activated at 10 PSI.
Product Water Level Connections in the Storage Tank -
Option A: When using an atmospheric tank, a High Level Switch
( provided with the system ) is used. Option B: When using a
pressurized tank it is required to use a Cut Switch as if it were a
stop and start signal of a jet pump, it is recommended to use a
range of 20-40 psi. (See page 15)
Product Water Quality Sensor - The system has an integrated
TDS sensor for monitoring water quality and is constantly
visible on the control screen. The TDS sensor can be read in PPM
and can be set to trigger an alarm if water quality is abnormal.
11. INLET SOLENOID VALVE: Normally closed solenoid valve
(NC). This valve is located on the feed side of the pressure pump.
Its purpose is to stop the water supply when the unit is not
operating. If the power fails, this valve will close.
NOTICE: NEVER USE THIS FILTER AS THE ONLY WAY
OF PRETREATMENT FOR YOUR REVERSE
OSMOSIS SYSTEM.

must be installed according to local regulations.
Switch and Product Water Level Connections in the Storage
Tank - The cable connections for the liquid level switch are
located directly on the back side of the electrical control box.
The two wires are connected together with the level switch
cables. When the switch is closed, the Reverse Osmosis system
is switched on. When the switch is open the Reverse Osmosis
system is switched o.
IV. REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM INSTALLATION
INSTALL FOLLOWING THESE STEPS:
1. Choose a place that is covered and has enough space for
the system. The location should also have feed water, electricity
and a specied area for drainage. It is not recommended to install
the system in an area exposed to the elements. Start by connecting
all water connections to the system and its pre-treatment.
2. Install the filter inside the housing or make sure it’s inside
the housing prior to start-up.
3. Install the membrane(s) in the membrane housing(s). The
membrane housings have an arrow indicating the direction
of ow. The seal of the membrane should always be installed
in the same direction as the inlet water. (See diagram below,
chapter V of this manual).
4. Open the recycle and rejection valves completely.
5. Make all electrical installations including the storage water
tank level switch. Make sure the system is connected to an
independent designated main breaker.
V. MEMBRANE INSTALLATION
- To insert the membranes into the membrane housing, It is
recommended to only remove a cap where the water inlet
is fed, there is an arrow indicating the feed ow, instead of
disconnecting the quick connectors and high pressure tubing.
- When installing the membrane you have to make sure of
which position the arrow is pointing (this indicates how the ow
should be directed according to the design of the System), it also
indicates in which position the o-ring of the brine seal is located
to feed the membrane.
*Note the direction of the membrane seal in the following diagram.
IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO MAKE SURE YOU
KNOW ALL REGULATIONS PERTAINING TO LOCAL,
BUILDING, ELECTRICAL AND PLUMBING PARAMETERS
OF THE SITE WHERE YOU ARE INSTALLING THE SYSTEM.
ALWAYS FOLLOW SAFETY PROCEDURES WHEN
INSTALLING THE UNIT.
MEMBRANE SEAL SHOULD ALWAYS BE INSTALLED
IN THE SAME DIRECTION AS THE FLOW OF
INCOMING WATER.

The Timer on the screen changes under dierent cycles of time,
at the beginning it shows (minutes: seconds) and later when it
reaches one hour changes to (hour: minute).
When the system is in (Stand by), the display will show the total
accumulated time that has been operating after 9999 hr the timer
will start a new cycle starting from scratch again.
- At initial start-up, the system counts in seconds until it reaches
minutes and later to hours as in the example below.
By default the controller provides a 10 second delay in start-up
of the system when you place the selector switch in AUTO for
double electrical protection of the system.
TDS - Registers the quality of the product water by measuring
the total dissolved solids in PPM units.
CONTROLLER PROGRAMMING:
The IXC-850 Reverse Osmosis System has already been factory
programmed with pre-set parameters for basic operation,

VII. STARTUP
1. Make sure that everything related to the pre-treatment
process is operating properly and has been backwashed several
times to avoid nes from entering the system.
2. Install main valve near the system.
3. All pressure gauges will read 0 before opening the supply
valve to the system.
4. Open the feed water.
5. Make sure the waste and recirculation valves are fully open.
6. The inlet pressure gauge should climb to 30 psi. When the
inlet pressure reaches approximately 20 psi the low pressure
indicator light will turn o.
7. After 10 seconds the pump will come on. After the pump turns
on the system pressure gauge will begin to rise.
8. Purge for 10 minutes before adjusting the waste valve by
closing it slowly until the product and waste indicator show the
same values in GPM.
It is recommended to use a 50-50% conversion (product-rejection).
9. Adjust the waste valve by slowly closing it until the system
pressure is in the range of 130 -150 psi depending on the type
of membrane used.
10. The Reverse Osmosis unit is now in operation. Check for leaks.
PPM product water will take approximately 60 minutes to reach
the optimum final quality since the membranes must be ushed
from preservants.
INITIAL TESTS
After 15-30 minutes both the feedwater and the product water
must be monitored with the TDS meter. You must obtan at
least 95% rejection in the nal product water quality.
If the rejection is less than 95% recheck the installation of the
membrane and that they are positioned in the right direction
by making sure the seals of the membrane are in the same
direction of the ow of water. Also check o-rings and membrane
caps to identify where the problem is.
- After testing the water quality, now you have to verify the wiring
signal that goes to the product water level switch. These two wires
are located at the top of the control box.
Disconnect the cables from the level switch and make sure that:
1. The system pump turns o automatically.
2. There should be pressure on your pre-lter and remain stable.
3. The pump system is switched o and both the ow to product
and waste stop (no output).
4. The control box must remain on and the screen illuminated
when the level switch is open, the screen will show full.
Reconnect the wires to the liquid level switch. The pump will
automatically turn on. The pressure will increase and the water
will ow through the product and waste ow meters.
NEVER COMPLETELY CLOSE THE WASTE VALVE.
NEVER ALLOW THE GAUGE PRESSURE TO EXCEED 200 PSI.
WARNING: THE REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM MUST BE
FLUSHED THOROUGHLY FOR ONE HOUR BEFORE USING
THE PRODUCT WATER. THE CONCENTRATE AND PERMEATE
SHOULD RUN TO A SUITABLE DRAIN FOR FLUSHING THE
SYSTEM. THE SYSTEM MUST BE PURGED AT LOW PRESSURE
WITH HIGH FLOW RATES.

IX. PRETREATMENT REQUIRED FOR
REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEMS.
It is advisable to ensure that raw feed water is microbiologically
safe and/or has been subjected to a purification process, if
this has not occurred or in doubt, Disinfection should be a
considered step by injecting liquid chlorine (preferably) and
allowing a contact time of at least 30 minutes. As part of a
primary pre-treatment it is recommended that the following
be considered in a pretreatment installation:
1. Sediment filter: These filters are designed to remove sedi-
ment present in the raw water and are important to prevent
dirt from reaching the membrane and fouling it quickly.
Various filtering materials such as: multimedia, silica sand,
cartridge or bag filters may be used.
2. Activated carbon lter: The membranes (central part) of the
Reverse Osmosis system cannot tolerate chlorine. It is extremely
important to give proper maintenance to the unit by changing
carbon lter material within recommended time frames, doing
this will increase the lifetime of the membranes.
3. Water softener: When you have hardness of > 100 ppm,
to avoid saturation and fouling of the membranes a water
softener is recommended before Reverse Osmosis.
