Section 1

Intended Use The Pressure Vessel is designed for continuous use as a housing for membrane elements. Vessel has been designed to meet the standards of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section X. At an additional cost, vessels can be inspected during fabrication by an ASME Authorized Inspector and Code stamped. Vessel 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. Therefore, review and follow the safeguards listed below before placing the vessels into service. The filament-wound reinforced plastic shell of this vessel must be allowed to expand under pressure. 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 and side ports 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. When requested, Protec Arisawa will assist the purchaser in determining the suitability of this standard vessel design for their operating environment. However, the final determination including the evaluation of the materials of construction for use in the specific corrosive environment shall be the responsibility of the purchaser. Alternate materials of construction may be available on special order.

of 39 901002_C, 30/11/2012

Section 2

Precautions Follow all instructions. Failure to take every precaution listed will void the vessel warranty and may result in vessel failure. Mount shell using furnished hardware. Following the recommended span(s), mount the vessel on saddles provided. Tighten straps to 1 ft-lb (1.4 N-m) maximum. Do not leave the head seal installed in the pressure vessels during long periods of time. Prior to system start up, store head seals in a dry dark location to avoid the possibility of seal deterioration. Install the head seals just prior to system operation. Align the side ports with the manifold. Center each vessel with the manifold and correct the causes of misalignment for each and every vessel. Use flexible type groove-end pipe couplings. Use Victaulic™ or similar flexible groove-end couplings adequate for the intended pressure following the manufacturer specifications. Allow the maximum possible gap permitted by the coupling device, in order to maximize flexibility. Maximize the connection flexibility. Position the vessel and the piping so that the vessel can grow in length and diameter under pressure without any undue restraint. ∆DIA = 0.014” (0.4 mm) and ∆L = 0.25” (6.4 mm) for a length code –7 vessel. This is especially true for Permeate piping where it is mandatory to maintain maximum flexibility. Provide overpressure protection. Set the safety device at not more than 105% design pressure. Inspect end closures and side ports regularly. Replace damaged or deteriorated components and correct the cause of any deviation. Relieve system pressure before working on the vessel. Working on vessels that are under pressure may result in bodily harm and/or property damage. Never support other components with the vessel. Hanging piping manifolds or supporting other components with the vessel may result in vessel damage. DO NOT allow the Feed / Concentrate ports or the Permeate ports to hold the weight of manifolds. Always use the frame to secure manifolds in a manner that does not pull on these ports.

PRO-8-1200-EP-2, SO 24779, Page 6 of 84

of 39 901002_C, 30/11/2012

Do not over tighten the Permeate Port connection. Tightening the connection more than one turn past hand tight will damage the port. Avoid movement on the permeate piping not to produce stress on the permeate port. Ensure that the Thrust Ring is installed downstream. Operating without a thrust ring may cause membrane damage. Shim the membranes. Shim carefully the column of membranes to minimize movement of elements. Double check end closure installation. Ensure that retaining system is in place and fully seated. Never operate the vessel in excess of its ratings. This practice will void the vessel warranty, shorten vessel life and could lead to bodily harm or property damage. Do not operate the vessel permeate port over 125 psi (8.6 bar). Permeate pressure in excess of 125 psi (8.6 bar) must be approved by the factory prior to operation. Operate the vessel in only positive pressure applications. This vessel is not designed for vacuum conditions. Flush the vessel before system shut down. Some feed waters may cause corrosion under static conditions. Flushing with non-corrosive permeate is recommended. Operate the vessel within the recommended pH range. The vessel is designed for continuous use at a pH of 3-11 and for intermittent cleaning (less than 30 min. at a pH of 2-12). The use of chemical additives, such as sodium bisulphate or others, may impact the pH and must be continuously monitored and controlled. Please see Section 16 & 17 for further precautions when using chemicals. Do not install the vessel in direct sunlight.

*Please inform the factory when continuous operating temperature is less than 45°F (7°C).

Section 3

PROTEC™ Pressure Vessels Vessel Installation

Proper vessel inspection, handling and installation are important to help ensure a long vessel life. This guide should be followed during vessel installation by the party responsible for the installation of the vessels into the system. However, following this guide does not relieve the purchaser from full responsibility for proper inspection, handling and installation of the vessel. Damage due to improper handling or installation shall be the sole responsibility of the purchaser. Read this entire guide carefully. Vessel misuse, mishandling or corrosion damage can result in a mechanical failure that can cause property damage, personal injury or even death. Should any information provided in this guide not agree with the system suppliers recommendations, please call Protec Arisawa at +1 760-599-4800 (USA) or +34 94-674-03-12 (Spain) for clarification. Handling, Receiving and Inspection Fiberglass pressure vessels are very rugged and are the choice of the industry for membrane applications. They are designed to operate safely over a long service life when they are handled and installed correctly. However, failure to do so may result in a malfunction or catastrophic failure while in service. To help prevent this possibility, please follow the precautions listed below:

1) Never lift or move a vessel by placing something inside the vessel bore. The inside surface is designed and intended only for membrane installation and removal. Lifting the vessel in this careless manner may permanently damage the vessel.

2) DO NOT scratch the inside surface of the vessel. This is especially true just inside the vessel bore where the head components must seal to the inside of the vessel.

3) DO NOT place tools or anything other than Membranes inside the vessel to avoid scratching the inside surface of the vessel.

4) DO NOT drop the vessel or allow it to hit other objects. If this happens, damage may be masked due to the durable polyurethane coating, thus hiding a potentially damaged vessel that may fail while in service.

PRO-8-1200-EP-2, SO 24779, Page 8 of 84

of 39 901002_C, 30/11/2012

5) DO NOT apply any undue stress at the shell. While the vessel can handle a small amount of misalignment, applying any undue stress may shorten the vessel life and lead to leakage while in service.

6) Before using a forklift or a crane to handle the vessels, either add padding to the forks or to the vessel wall to prevent any damage to the shell. Scratching or gouging the outside of the vessel can be prevented by proper handling.

Impact Damage Damage to the exterior of the vessel may lead to early failure. Any damage received in shipment must be reported to the shipping company immediately upon receipt. Minor damage that goes no deeper than the paint will be acceptable for adequate performance, however deep gouging should be inspected prior to the vessel being placed into service. When in doubt, please contact the Customer Service Department at Protec Arisawa at +1 760-599-4800 (USA) or +34 94-674-03-12 (Spain). Mounting the Shell This section is written to address the mounting of all PROTEC pressure vessels. If you are mounting vessels for the first time, please refer to Section 5 for piping recommendations. Installation

1) Before determining a final position for the vessel skid, make sure that adequate room is provided to access both ends of the vessel. Elements are installed from the feed end of the system and then removed from the opposite (downstream) end of the system.

2) Follow all the applicable guidelines on handling, receiving and inspection as noted earlier.

3) NOTE: It is important that each vessel is placed in a way to minimize any strain induced from the system piping that connects the vessel to a header or other system connection. Normally we suggest that each vessel be centered on the frame with the feed/concentrate ports located in such a way that the piping connections can be easily made without any undue stress. Plumbing components attached to the permeate port or head assembly must be independently supported.

4) Set the vessels on the polyurethane support saddles positioned directly on the system frame at the “S” dimension found on the Engineering Drawing. Ideally, the frame should already be drilled for mounting the vessels. The holes in the

PRO-8-1200-EP-2, SO 24779, Page 9 of 84

of 39 901002_C, 30/11/2012

frame should be drilled to the dimension found on the Engineering Drawing. Protec Arisawa always recommends for long vessels to use 3 saddles and only 2 straps to minimize shell stress.

5) Connect the vessels to the manifolds or to the next vessel while adjusting each shell and manifold for minimal misalignment at each end. The port to manifolds or port to port clearance should be set at the flexible connectors’ Maximum recommendations. This dimension is usually 0.125 inches (3.175 mm). Double check with your coupling supplier for this value. The flexible connector should be able to be tightened without experiencing any binding. Secure the manifolds of the system and the vessels only after completing this important alignment procedure.

6) WARNING: Do not mount the vessels in any way that will restrict the growth of the vessel. Limiting expansion by rigidly mounting the vessels will not allow for proper vessel growth under pressure and affect vessel life. For expansion requirements, please see Section 2.

7) Connect the vessel straps to the system frame by positioning the screws through the frame and threading them into the bar nut located on the vessel strap. Tighten straps until finger tight.

8) Finish any piping and alignment that has not been completed following the alignment procedure noted above.

9) Using a wrench, tighten the strap screws one additional full turn. This should result in 0-1 ft-lb (0-1.4 N-m) of torque. If in question, repeat the procedure and measure the torque with an appropriate tool.

10) CAUTION: DO NOT over tighten straps to avoid vessel damage. 11) NOTE: PROTEC straps are designed to secure the vessel during operation.

They have not been designed to handle any and all loads that may occur based on any unforeseen mounting condition. Appropriate evaluation should be employed to ensure that and factors such as transit, non-traditional mounting and system design. PROTEC straps are not designed to handle the weight of the vessel. For skid transportation the straps must be tightened to avoid any vessel movement but must be loosened for operation.

12) Strap assemblies are designed for horizontal positioning only.

Section 4 PROTEC™ Pressure Vessels

Multiple Porting Recommendations This guide is not intended in any way to replace good engineering judgment that is required for safe operation over a long service life. We recommend that only a qualified engineer or mechanic, experienced in servicing pressure vessels or high pressure equipment carry out the following tasks. If you have any questions concerning proper maintenance, please contact the factory at +1 760-599-4800 (USA) or +34 94-674-03-12 (Spain). Multiple port vessels are those specified by the user to have more than one high-pressure port per end. This feature allows vessels to be directly connected together allowing water to flow through one vessel into another. This piping method has become an acceptable way to provide superior system designs while reducing system costs. While the thought of directly bolting vessels together is easily understood, there are several guidelines that must be followed in order to have a good long-term system design. These are as follows: Flow-balance the system. When supplying feed water from one side of the vessels, take the concentrate from the opposite side. This will prevent more water from flowing through the first vessel and starving the second and third. This practice will help equalize feed flow to each vessel. Minimize pressure drop. As water passes through each vessel, a pressure drop occurs. This will result in the last vessel in a connected pass receiving less pressure than the first. Increasing port size reduces this effect.

Optimize the water velocity through the ports. The speed of the water through the ports should be kept within a reasonable range to ensure proper long-term performance (typically 5-15 ft/sec. (1.5-4.5 m/sec.)) Speeds that are too fast will result in port erosion while speeds that are too slow will promote corrosion. Avoid the temptation to use smaller ports. Even though the thought of adding on an extra vessel with small ports sounds reasonable, it can result in a pressure drop problem.

PRO-8-1200-EP-2, SO 24779, Page 11 of 84

of 39 901002_C, 30/11/2012

Take caution when using more than one port size. Changing ports sizes in a second or third pass requires careful evaluation of pressure drop that can affect system performance. Check with your membrane supplier. It is a good idea to let your membrane supplier evaluate the performance of your proposed system. Don’t assume that we endorse the use of multiple ports for your system. Just because vessels can be ported together does not make them the best choice for your system. Protec Arisawa is not responsible for the misapplication of the multiple port option.

PROTEC™ Pressure Vessels

Piping Recommendations This guide is not intended in any way to replace good engineering judgment that is required for safe operation over a long service life. We recommend that only a qualified engineer or mechanic, experienced in servicing pressure vessels or high pressure equipment carry out the following tasks. If you have any questions concerning proper maintenance, please contact the factory at +1 760-599-4800 (USA) or +34 94-674-03-12 (Spain). PROTEC™ pressure vessels are the most durable side port vessel available today. Unlike vessels with less durable designs, connecting PROTEC side ported vessels to manifolds or to each other is easily done if some very basic rules are followed. These are as follows: Use two flexible Victaulic™ connections when manifold accuracy is questionable. The tolerance required for side-ported vessels should be a total per port of 0.030” (.76 mm). For retrofitting side-ported vessels into older systems or when manifold tolerances can simply not be guaranteed, the two-connection method is the safest approach. Use a single flexible Victaulic™ connection when manifold accuracy is not a problem. This is possible when manifold to vessel misalignment can be held to within 0.030” (0.76 mm) in any direction. However, it is important to note that these flexible connections allow angular but not lateral misalignment. Therefore, any misalignment must be kept to a minimum. Use intermediate Victaulic™ connections in the manifolds when required. This practice allows more flexibility in the system resulting in easier to install manifolds. Center the vessel between the manifolds . This is very basic but commonly overlooked. If the port on one end is directly aligned with the manifold and the opposite end is off by a small distance, centering the vessel so that the small distance is equally divided between each end before tightening the straps allows each end to handle half this distance rather than all at one end. Do this with each vessel to reduce stress on the ports.

PRO-8-1200-EP-2, SO 24779, Page 15 of 84

of 39 901002_C, 30/11/2012

Allow one manifold to float. In some systems, the manifold can be connected to the vessels and supported by the floor but allowed to float in the axial direction to provide room for vessel growth under pressure. Let the manifold span be longer than the vessel span. Remember that the vessel will grow in length under pressure, see Section 2 . Setting the manifold span to the maximum tolerance is another way to provide room for vessel growth under pressure. Check each connection for acceptable misalignment. By installing the Victaulic™ connection without the gasket and drawing the bolts snug, the connector should be able to rotate by hand. On some systems this test may not be practical. In these cases the Victaulic™ connections must be able to be tightened without the need of excessive force. Force would indicate a major misalignment that could damage the vessel. When in doubt, contact the factory. Ship skids without Victaulic™ couplings to prevent damage. We recommend that prior to the shipment of preassembled skids, the Victaulic™ couplings be removed and shipped in a separate box. The gasket should remain in place for easy assembly at the destination.

Troubleshooting This section is written specifically for the troubleshooting of PROTEC™ pressure vessels. This guide is not intended in any way to replace good engineering judgment that is required for safe operation over a long service life. We recommend that only a qualified engineer or mechanic, experienced in servicing pressure vessels or high pressure equipment carry out the following tasks. If you have any questions concerning proper maintenance, please contact the factory at +1 760-599-4800 (USA) or +34 94-674-03-12 (Spain). Vessel Inspection Inspect the vessel at each end for corrosion which may interfere with the removal of the head. If corrosion if found or suspected, proceed as follows:

1) Loosen any deposits with a soft cloth with water. 2) CAUTION: Do not use a wire brush on any components made from plastic, or

fiberglass. 3) Flush away any loosened deposits with clean water. 4) Proceed with the instructions in Section 10 to remove the vessel head.

Difficulty in Opening the Vessel Note: The recommendations listed below are intended only as a guide. If head assembly is still difficult to remove after the recommendations have been followed, call Protec Arisawa for technical assistance.

Retaining Ring (PRO)

1) Will not release from the retaining ring groove:

a. Check that Head has been tapped inboard approximately 1/8” (3 mm). See Section 10 , step 4.

b. Apply a penetrating fluid (such as WD-40 or LPS-1) to the interfacing areas of the retaining ring.

c. With a screwdriver handle or a similar tool, tap the retaining ring to release the bond.

d. Again attempt to remove the ring. A screw driver may be used to pry the finger pull from the shell.

e. Once the ring is removed, inspect the retaining ring groove and the ring for any corrosion damage. Renew all components to as-new standards.

Head Assembly

1) Will not release from the shell.

NOTE: If the Head is difficult to remove, remove a flexible port or manifold connection or take action to release any vacuum that may be holding the head in place.

a. Method A i. With a soft piece of wood and a plastic mallet, tap the face of the

Bearing Plate of both sides to move the head inboard approximately 1/8” (3 mm).

ii. Pull head out of shell by grasping the permeate port. b. Method B (Section 10 step 5)

i. Thread two 5/16-18 or 8 mm (See order details) T-handles into the threaded holes on the Bearing Plate of the vessel.

ii. Carefully pull on the T-handles while gently rocking the head back and forth to remove the head.

c. Method C (Section 10 step 5) i. Drill a 14” (35 cm) long section of 1/4" (1 cm) steel bar stock with

two holes that match the span of the threaded holes in the Bearing Plate.

ii. Place the section of bar stock against the end bell of the vessel so that the metal is supported by the vessel bell.

PRO-8-1200-EP-2, SO 24779, Page 22 of 84

of 39 901002_C, 30/11/2012

iii. Thread two 5/16-18 or 8 mm (See order details) threaded rods through the bar stock and into the bearing plate until they are threaded 1/4” (1 cm) into the Bearing Plate.

iv. Put nuts on the threaded rods with washers between the nuts and the bar stock.

v. Turn each nut 1/2 turn at a time, alternating between the two nuts until the head is released from the vessel.

Seal Leakage Vessel Side Port Follow the instruction for seal replacement found in Section 13 . CAUTION: Be careful to inspect for corrosion of the side port locking mechanism whenever a side port has been leaking. The use of corroded parts may lead to side port failure. Head Seal Warning: Most head seal leaks are caused by improper membrane loading. Whenever a membrane or a vessel head is loaded, it must be flushed with clean water directly prior to installation to remove any grit or debris that may scratch the vessel bore. Scratches caused by improper loading or vessel abuse are not covered under warranty.

1) Remove seal from Sealing Plate. 2) Carefully inspect the seal gland on the Sealing Plate for any contamination or

damage that may affect sealing properties. 3) Renew Seal Plate gland or replace to achieve as-new condition. 4) Install a new head seal that has been properly lubricated. 5) Inspect vessel bore for any damage such as scratches that may affect sealing. 6) If scratches are found, they may be carefully sanded with 600 grit sand paper

dipped in a mild soap/water solution. If any scratches can not be removed in this manner, contact the factory for further instructions.

Sudden Drop in Permeate Quality Systems that are constantly started and stopped may develop problems with permeate quality. Usually this problem is found when the membrane column moves under pressure. Problems of this nature are typically sudden and indicate a seal problem. Changes that happen over time are typically not related to sealing problems and should be addressed by the membrane supplier. If permeate quality drops suddenly and membrane performance is not in question, proceed as follows:

1) First check the membrane interconnectors and membranes by doing a probe following the membrane manufacturer guidelines.

2) Open the vessel head following the instruction in Section 10. 3) Remove the adapters from each end of the vessel. 4) Remove the PWT seals from the Adapter and the Adapter Seal from each

Permeate Port. 5) Inspect all of these seals for any damage that may cause leakage. This may be

noticeable as a tear, flat spot or gouge in the material. 6) If the seals have moved out of the groove in the Adapter or Permeate Port, this

may indicate that the system is experiencing excessive membrane movement during start up and shut down. There are two ways to correct the problem. One is to install the PROTEC Auto-Shim device and the other is to shim the system.

Installing the Auto-Shim Contact the factory to enquire about the use of the Auto-Shim for your application. Please note that the Auto-Shim must be installed on the feed end of the vessel. If this is possible, we recommend the use of this device. If installing on the feed end is simply not possible or practical, we recommend that the vessel be shimmed.

PRO-8-1200-EP-2, SO 24779, Page 24 of 84

of 39 901002_C, 30/11/2012

Installing Shims Shimming is done by placing plastic spacers between the adapter and the hub of the Permeate Port on the upstream end of the vessel. When this is done correctly, it will help eliminate excessive movement of the membranes during start up and shut down. This will in turn prevent damage to the PWT and Adapter seals. The plastic spacers used for shimming are provided with each adapter and are .20 inches thick or 3 mm / 10 mm thick (See order details). The suggested shimming procedure is as follows:

1) Before continuing, ensure that the Thrust Cone is installed on the down stream Head and the membranes are loaded and pushed down-stream as far as possible.

2) Remove the product water tube seals (PWT seals) from the upstream adapter and the Head Seal from the Sealing Plate.

3) Lubricate the Adapter Seal in the Permeate Port and also lightly lubricate the outside of the Adapter that engages into the Permeate Port.

4) Push the Adapter into the Permeate Port Hub until the Adapter passes the Adapter Seal.

5) Line the Adapter up with the product water tube on the upstream membrane element and install the head until the Bearing Plate passes the Retaining Ring groove in the shell.

6) Remove the head being careful to not disrupt the Adapter location in the Permeate Port.

7) Measure the distance between the Adapter hub and the Permeate Port. This area is where the Shims will be placed.

8) Determine how many Shims are required without needing more distance than measured minus 1/8” (3 mm) to allow for Head removal.

9) Install the Shims onto the Adapter. 10) Install the Head into the vessel a second time, to verify that there is still enough

room to get the Head Retaining Ring into the groove in the shell. The Head should clear the Groove by about 1/8” (3 mm).

11) Now reinstall the seals removed in prior steps onto the Adapter and the Permeate Port.

12) The Head may now be installed following the directions in Section 12 for the model used.

Step 4 Remove Retaining Ring (PRO) Never remove the two bolts. With a soft piece of wood and a plastic mallet, tap the face of the Bearing Plate on both sides to move the head inboard approximately 1/8” (3 mm). Pull the retaining ring out of the groove in the shell. After the ring is removed from the groove for 1/4 turn, stop pulling. Finish removing the ring by running your finger behind the ring and carefully pulling the ring from groove. It is best to follow the ring in a clock-wise direction while removing to avoid stretching the ring. Remove Locking Segments (BPV) Remove the three retaining screws from the head that hold each segment in place. Push the head into the vessel until the locking segments can be removed. Step 5 Remove Head (See figures below) Use the two tapped 5/16-18 or 8 mm (See order details) holes in the bearing plate to pull the head out. It is recommended that you contact the factory for head removal tools.

Section 11 PROTEC™ Pressure Vessels Head Rebuilding Procedure

This guide is not intended in any way to replace good engineering judgment that is required for safe operation over a long service life. We recommend that only a qualified engineer or mechanic, experienced in servicing pressure vessels or high pressure equipment carry out the following tasks. If you have any questions concerning proper maintenance, please contact the factory at +1 760-599-4800 (USA) or +34 94-674-03-12 (Spain). Step 1 Remove Adapter Pull the adapter from the permeate port by slowly pulling on the adapter body.

Step 2 Remove Permeate Port Carefully remove the metal retaining ring from the permeate port as to not damage the ring or the port. A new retaining ring may be required to assemble the head. After the ring is removed, carefully slip the bearing plate off the permeate port and set it aside. Then simply pull the permeate port from the sealing plate.

Step 3 Remove Seals Remove the seal from the permeate port and set aside. Using a small tool, such as a screwdriver or a paper clip, remove the seal from the inside of the permeate port and set aside. Step 4 Clean All Components Using a mild soap solution, clean each component, rinse with fresh water and then dry with compressed air or a lint free towel. Step 5 Inspect Components Examine each component for corrosion or damage that may affect the performance of the vessel. Replace any components that have corrosion or visual damage. In addition, carefully inspect each seal for damage or wear. It is recommended to replace each seal at this time. Please be aware that seal condition may affect system performance. Step 6 Lubricate Seals Using extreme care, coat each seal with a thin layer of glycerin. Only a thin layer is required. Silicone lubricants can also be used; however, care should be taken to use as little as possible. Check with your membrane supplier before using these lubricants as they can foul membranes. Step 7 Reassemble Head Reversing the removal procedure, reassemble the head. Please note that a new permeate port retaining ring may be required to ensure correct component performance.

Head Loading Procedure This guide is not intended in any way to replace good engineering judgment that is required for safe operation over a long service life. We recommend that only a qualified engineer or mechanic, experienced in servicing pressure vessels or high pressure equipment carry out the following tasks. If you have any questions concerning proper maintenance, please contact the factory at +1 760-599-4800 (USA) or +34 94-674-03-12 (Spain). Step 1 Inspect Vessel Shell Before installing the head, check the inside surface of the shell for any imperfections or foreign matter. Remove all foreign matter using a mild soap solution and rinse with clean water. To remove imperfections, lightly sand the surface of the vessel with 600 grit sandpaper and soapy water and then rinse with water. Step 2 Head Seal and Shell Lubrication Ensure that the head seal is covered with a thin layer of glycerin and is free from any dirt or dust contamination. Then lubricate the inside of the shell starting directly inboard of the retaining ring groove and up the energizing ramp into the vessel bore. Only a thin layer is required. Silicone lubricants can also be used; however, care should be taken to use as little as possible. Check with your membrane supplier before using these lubricants as they can foul membranes.

of 39 901002_C, 30/11/2012

Step 3 Install Head Holding the head square to the axis of the shell, slowly push the head into the shell until the seal passes the retaining ring groove. As a resistance is felt, tap the head into the vessel using a 2-3 lb (1-1.5 kg) dead blow hammer until the head clears the retaining ring groove. Never tap on the Permeate Port or any other plastic parts.

Step 4 Install Retaining Ring (PRO) or Install Locking Segments (BPV) Install Retaining Ring (PRO) Remove any moisture from the retaining groove before proceeding. Carefully place the end of the retaining ring into the groove on the shell. After the ring is started, slowly push the ring towards the groove. As the ring enters the groove, continue pushing as your hand slowly rotates counter-clockwise around the inside diameter of the shell. Be careful to prevent the ring from snapping against your finger as it enters the groove.

PRO-8-1200-EP-2, SO 24779, Page 30 of 84

of 39 901002_C, 30/11/2012

Install Locking Segments (BPV) Remove any moisture from the locking segment groove before proceeding. Carefully place the locking segments into the groove on the shell. After the locking segments are inserted, slowly pull the head outward into the locking segments.

After the head has stopped against the segments, install the three screws into the head and tighten no more than 1/4 turn past finger tight (preliminary thread). Be sure that each locking segment fits correctly on the bearing plate.

Don’t thread the screws totally in this step. Repeat this operation for the 3 screws, twice.

PRO-8-1200-EP-2, SO 24779, Page 31 of 84

of 39 901002_C, 30/11/2012

Finally, push firmly each segment into the internal part of the groove with one hand, and use the other hand to thread the screws completely.

ENSURE THAT EACH SEGMENT IS PROPERLY SEATED ON THE BEARING PLATE.

Step 5 Reconnect Permeate Port Reconnect the permeate manifold to the permeate port. Step 6 Pressurize System Before starting the system, double check that each head has been correctly installed and that all piping connections are in place. Follow the guidelines in the Pre-Pressurization Checklist, Section 6, of this manual before start up of the system. After ensuring that all required precautions have been taken, start the system. Step 7 Check For Leaks After system start up, verify that all connections are leak free. Fix any leaks at this time to prevent corrosion that may lead to component deterioration and possibly unsafe operation.

Side Port Seal Replacement Procedure This guide is not intended in any way to replace good engineering judgment that is required for safe operation over a long service life. We recommend that only a qualified engineer or mechanic, experienced in servicing pressure vessels or high pressure equipment carry out the following tasks. If you have any questions concerning proper maintenance, please contact the factory at +1 760-599-4800 (USA) or +34 94-674-03-12 (Spain). Step 1 Remove Old/ Damaged Seal Use a small curved tool (This could be a small ice pick or a very small screw driver that has been bent at the end.) with a sharp point to pick at the seal /O-ring and pull it out.

Be careful not to scratch the vessel bore or the counter bore while pulling out the old seal. Step 2 Clean seal gland Once the old seal has been removed, clean the seal gland between the counter bore and the side port as well as possible. This can be done by using a stiff brush, a small section of a Popsicle stick some other rigid material that will not scratch the counter bore. Debris can be blown or vacuumed out.

Be careful not to scratch the vessel bore or the counter bore while cleaning the seal gland.

Step 3 Lubricate the New Seal Lubricate the new seal with a thin layer of glycerine. Silicone lubricants can also be used; however, use as little as possible. Check with your membrane supplier as to the acceptability of any lubricants used to prevent any fouling or damage to your membranes. Step 4 Install the New Seal Using your finger or a Popsicle stick, push the seal all the way down into the seal gland at two points across from each other. Then repeat the process at 90 degrees. The seal should now be installed at four corners.

Carefully continue to push the seal into the gland at locations midway between the previous installation points. Continue by alternating sides until the entire seal is installed.

Once the entire seal is installed use the end of a Popsicle stick to press the seal into the seal gland around the entire circumference to insure that it is fully seated in the seal gland.

Assembling Threaded Plastic Fittings "Do's and Don'ts"

Today there are millions of miles of plastic piping with threaded fittings, providing long term, reliable, leak-free service. However, a tiny percentage of those threaded plastic fittings may leak or break due to improper assembly of threaded joints. Here are some of the Do's and Don'ts of threaded plastic fitting joint assembly.

o Don't over-tighten joints by giving them "one more turn to be sure." � Do finger tighten plus one or two turns- No More. o Don't wrap Teflon tape or Teflon paste or pipe dope to add bulk to or to lubricate

the joint. � Do use a sealant for threaded joints. o Don't use "stronger" Schedule 80 threaded fittings on the assumption that they

may solve the problem of splitting through over-tightening. � Do use only Schedule 40 threaded fittings with Schedule 40 pipe and fittings.

Don't over-tighten. Do finger tighten plus one or two turns. � On threaded male plastic fittings each successive thread is

slightly larger in diameter than the one before it. Female threads get successively smaller. Because the threads are tapered, additional turns cause the female part to stretch or undergo "strain." This will split the female fitting just as a wedge, driven by a sledgehammer, will split a tree stump.

The right way to assemble a threaded plastic fitting joint is finge r tight plus one to two turns-NO MORE.

Don't use Teflon tape, Teflon paste or pipe dope. Do use a sealant. � Teflon tape, Teflon paste and pipe dope is intended for metal pipe and fittings. Metal

to metal fitting joints are more difficult to tighten than plastic; the surfaces tend to gall without the aid of such lubricants as Teflon or pipe dope. Plastic fittings do not need this lubrication.

PRO-8-1200-EP-2, SO 24779, Page 37 of 84

of 39 901002_C, 30/11/2012

� When Teflon tape is wrapped around plastic male threads it adds to the strain and tensile stress. The tendency of most installers is to incorrectly wrap several thickness of tape around the male threads, increasing stain and stress further.

� Teflon paste and pipe dope, just like Teflon tape, make threaded joints slippery. Their use on threaded plastic fittings can be an invitation to over-torque.

� A sealing compound must be compatible to plastics. Many brands of pipe sealant contain oils, solvents or carriers that can damage plastic. A proper sealant must be certified by the manufacturer to be harmless to the fitting material and to not contaminate fluid in the pipe.

When working with threaded plastic fittings do use a proper sealant. The right sealant for threaded joints is non- hardening, compatible with plastic and doesn't add slipperiness.

Don't use Schedule 80 threaded fittings in a Schedule 40 System. Do use the same Schedule threaded male and female fittings. � All the problems inherent in over-tightening apply as much to Schedule 80 systems

as they do Schedule 40. While the walls of female Schedule 80 threaded fittings are thicker, wall thickness does not change stress and strain levels.

Switching to a Schedule 80 fitting will not address the root cause of any splitting problems.

Precautions to be taken when using sodium bisulphite for membrane preservation (or any other chemical).

� Adherence to the membrane preservation procedure and any other relevant

membrane manufacturer guidelines is mandatory. � All important variables of the membrane preservation procedure must be

monitored during the entire preservation period.. � Insure that vessels are filled with the preservation solution at a pressure high

enough to generate turbulent flow. � Avoid any air bubbles. � Follow all the manufacturer’s instructions relating to Usage & Storage of the

preserving bisulphate or any other preservation chemicals being used. � Insure that there is regular and frequent monitoring of the solution pH. � Special precautions have to be taken in case of high temperatures. � Proper Use & Monitoring of preservation chemicals is the responsibility of the

end user.

** NOT FOLLOWING THESE GUIDELINES MAY LEAD TO SCC (Stress Corrosion Cracking) IN THE PRESSURE VESSELS **

Protec Arisawa Standard Test & Inspection Procedures

Protec Arisawa (formerly Bekaert Progressive Composites) is accredited by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) to fabricate fiber-reinforced plastic pressure vessels under Section X of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. This indicates that we have proven to the ASME and to the National Board of Pressure Vessel Inspectors that we have the ability, integrity and total quality system necessary to fabricate pressure vessels that meet the standards of the ASME Code.

As with all Protec Arisawa products, each pressure vessel will be able to meet ASME Code Section X, Class I requirements. This conformance includes requirements for materials, design, fabrication, examination and if required, third party inspection and code stamping.

Our ASME Quality Manual documents details of our total quality system. The system assures that all Code requirements are met. It consists of 14 sections that include Documentation Control, Material Control, Examination, Testing and Inspection, Quality Records, Final Acceptance and Packaging, Calibration of Measurement and Test Equipment.

All Protec Arisawa test and inspection procedures are carried out in the same way, whether for Code or non-Code vessels. There is a slight difference in the paperwork between the two, plus the ASME Authorized Inspector oversees our activities directly during the manufacture vessels to be Code stamped.

The relevant Production Traveler shows the various stages of production, testing and inspection followed in the manufacture of Protec Arisawa fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) pressure vessels. The following is a brief description of the test and inspection procedures carried out as part of the production cycle.

Lot Traceability Each pressure vessel has a unique serial number (S/N) embedded in the end margin. A copy of the relevant Production Traveler accompanies each vessel as it progresses through the plant. The vessel S/N and the corresponding Sales Order number, written on the Traveler, facilitate tracking and allow for the incorporation of any special treatment required for a specific customer’s order.

Specific Customer information Each Traveler shows part numbers and quantities for the various components such as side ports, bearing plates, etc., and has space to record any special requirements for the job concerned.

Sign-off Each section of the Traveler is signed off by the operator or supervisor concerned, and such details as the time, date, test results, lot numbers, etc are recorded.

PRO-8-1200-EP-2, SO 24779, Page 50 of 84

Mandrel Set-Up The mandrel is set up with the appropriate hardware and the mandrel number, along with the purchase order number and original-material heat number for each insert ring installed are recorded. After the operator has completed the set-up and signed the Traveler, a second operator double- checks the set-up and signs off also.

Winding Drawings for vessel models are included in traveler packet for each vessel. Each drawing includes the part number of the insert ring to be used and shows the Procedure Specification for the vessel to be manufactured. Details of the resin, hardener and fiber-glass purchase order numbers and lot numbers, plus the result of the daily resin mix ratio test, are recorded on the notice board at the winding machine and in the daily Wind Log. The strand tension and bandwidth are checked, adjusted if necessary, and signed off.

Oven Immediately after winding, the mandrel/vessel unit is moved into an oven in which it is heated per the appropriate cycle time/temperature. The date, cure profile and vessel numbers are recorded on a circular oven chart. This chart is then placed in an automatic temperature recorder which tracks the actual cure time/temperature profile used to cure the vessel(s) in each oven cycle.

Extraction / Cut-off On removal from the oven, the mandrel/vessel is allowed to cool. The mandrel is then extracted and the vessel passed through to the cut-off saw where the excess FRP from the winding process is removed. The vessel weight and other details are checked and recorded at this stage.

Sanding The sanding machine smoothes the rough outside of the vessel, ready for painting later. Vessel body and bell diameters are measured and recorded.

Milling The holes and counter-bores for side-ported vessels are machined at this stage. The diameters and depths of port holes and counter-bores, and their positions relative to the head retaining grooves, are measured and recorded as they are machined. The groove-to-groove length is double checked at this point.

Porting As ports are installed and resin-potted in place, the part number and original-material test report number, etched on each port, are recorded on the Traveler. The Barcol Hardness is checked on every tenth vessel or on every vessel for Code work. Random checks for port alignment (within ¼ degree) are made.

PRO-8-1200-EP-2, SO 24779, Page 51 of 84

I/D Preparation The interior of each vessel is thoroughly checked, with particular attention to the entry ramp and seal surfaces. Transition areas are blended in and any minor imperfections are repaired to achieve a smooth, impervious finish throughout.

Hydro-test The hydro-test procedure is carried out on every vessel using the pressure ratings shown on the Traveler. Each vessel is tested using the same heads that will be shipped with the vessel. In the case of Code stamped vessels the volumetric expansion is checked on every tenth vessel and the Authorized Inspector signs off the Traveler as appropriate.

Painting Following hydro-test the vessel is spray painted with a tough, durable urethane resin based paint. A smooth, glossy, essentially flaw-free finish is required.

Final Check, Clean and Package This final stage ensures that the customer receives vessels that are complete, clean and ready for the insertion of membrane elements. At this stage a final inspection is done, including port-to-port and groove to groove dimensions, correct port installation, condition of bore and ramp areas and uniformity of paint finish. When all checks are satisfactorily completed, the head components are installed, the Code plate, when required, is added, and the vessels are sealed into a clear polyethylene bag.

The Traveler is signed by the Final Inspector and for Code jobs the Quality Control Manager and the Authorized Inspector. In the case of vessels designated to be Code approved, the third party Authorized Inspector checks the hydro test and Code tagging procedures and carries out other random checks at his discretion.

Additional Notes As an integral part of the above procedures, random quality audits are carried out throughout the manufacturing cycle. These audits include double-checks on dimensions, inside and outside finish of the vessels and condition of the insert ring areas. Any imperfections are brought to the attention of the appropriate supervisor for action.

Hydro test Set-Up

1. Take the verified travelers and cart to the inventory cage so that the proper heads can be issued. If the appropriate heads for the vessel (Per work order) are not available, hold the vessels until the heads are available. Test heads are not to be used unless traveler indicates “SHELL ONLY” in the Special Instructions Section.

2. Block off extra side ports with blind plug Victaulic fittings as required. Inspect all seals, bolts, nuts and clamps for any damage prior to installing. Rotate the vessel so that two inline side ports are facing upwards.

3. Attach universal fill/pressure fittings to the headstock side port. This will allow the pressure vessel to be filled with water and later pressurized to test pressure

4. Install the air bleeding plugs on the tailstock side ports

5. Apply lube (glycerin) to the inside of the vessel I.D. Load the head assemblies in their respective end and secure with the head retaining spiral ring or locking segments depending on the model. Inspect the retaining rings or locking segments to insure that they are fully seated in the retaining groove. NOTE: Not all vessels can receive lube. Check the special instructions on the traveler prior to performing this step

6. Inspect the entire set up. Make sure that the bolts are tight and securing rings are fully seated. Check both sides of each pressure vessel

7. Elevate the T.S. of the vessels using the air cylinder. Fill pressure vessel with water, being sure to vent all air from pressure vessel. Water will flow through the fitting in the water trough once all of the air has been bled from the vessels. Shut the tailstock valve that is connected to the side port. Connect high pressure hoses to the headstock end of the vessel

8. Close the cages on each end of the vessels making sure that the cages are fully covering the vessel ends.

Responsible: Operator Pressurizing the Vessels

1. Locate the “Hydrostatic-Test Chart” at the end of this instruction and locate the correct model number. Note all of pressures and times indicated on the chart. This chart can be referenced at all times during the test. If the vessel being tested has special instructions on the traveler then refer to the test times and pressures on the traveler.

8/27/09 8/8/11 Q


Page 6 of 7 FO-002_A, DATE:1/13/2010

2. After the first pressure has reached the required time, check carefully for leaks, with particular attention to the end closures and side ports (where applicable). If even a very small amount of water is noticed, the vessel fails the test. Reset the timer and repeat this process for each pressure stage as stated on the chart.

3. Vessels that do leak should be reworked using the production work standards and retested. The retest hold time for leakage shall be 30 minutes at working pressure. If we do not test for this period, we might ship a vessel that leaks resulting in an expensive warranty claim! If no leaks are detected, the pressure vessel has passed the hydrostatic test. Relieve all pressure and disassemble the vessel. Fill in the necessary section of the traveler.

ATTENTION! DO NOT TOLERATE LEAKS!

4. After the vessel has been drained and disassemble, clean the ID of the vessels using a bladder with towels to remove water and debris. Throw the weighted stick down the inside length of the vessel. Insert the towel end of the cleaning bladder into the vessel end. Pull from the opposite end to clean the vessel interior.

CERTIFICATE OF CONFORMANCE

PRO-8-1200EP-2 (SO 24779)

To Whom It May Concern:

This letter certifies that each of the twenty (11) PRO-8-1200MSP-2 pressure vessels

listed by serial number below are manufactured with epoxy resins and fiber-glass

reinforcement via a filament winding process and include anti-corrosion bearing

plates (end caps).

These pressure vessels are designed for continuous use as housings for membrane

filtration elements at any positive pressure up to 1200psi (82.74 Bar) at temperatures

between 20 and 120ºF (-6.7 and 48.9 ºC). All vessels were tested per the Protec

Arisawa standard hydrostatic pressure test in which each vessel is tested in excess of

the ASME Section X, RT-450.1 Code requirement. The subject vessels were

pressurized to 75psi (5.17 Bar) for five (5) minutes, 1320psi (91.01 Bar) for fifteen (15)

minutes and 1200psi (82.74 Bar) for ten (10) minutes, and carefully checked for

leakage. No leak was experienced in any vessel.

Purpose

The purpose of this document is to describe the handling and storage of raw materials, parts and finished pressure vessels manufactured by Protec Arisawa, Vista. Materials

Fork Lift trucks Pallet jacks Storage shelves

Safety

Wear safety glasses and steel-toe boots when on shop floor. General Handling

The components that are incorporated into Protec Arisawa pressure vessels are designed to withstand excessively high pressures in normal use. However, some of those components can easily be damaged by misuse such as by being dropped or scratched. As a general rule, all components should be stored in their original, as received packaging and must be handled with care at all times.

Any time a package is dropped, or there is any other reason to suspect that goods might be damaged, the parts concerned must be carefully examined and, if doubt exists, a supervisor informed. The supervisor will either deem the parts acceptable, will prepare an appropriate Non-Conformance Report (NCR) or will consult with the QC department regarding further action. Production Handling

Although fiberglass pressure vessels are tough and durable in their intended service, they are subject to failure resulting from any severe damage such as by being dropped. If such a drop occurs, the supervisor must be informed immediately. The supervisor will determine the severity of any damage and will determine the course of action to be taken.

Any damage that results in even a minor delamination or bruise at any point on a vessel must be reported immediately to a supervisor and recorded on an NCR.

General Storage Information The following precautions should be taken to ensure safe, long-term storage of Protec Arisawa

pressure vessels. 1. Vessels should be maintained in clean condition. Ideally, vessels should be kept in the

polyethylene bags, in which they are shipped, with ends of bags tightly sealed. It is very important to make a detailed inspection, immediately on receipt, especially, for any shipment that is to be stored long term. First, examine for vessel damage at any point of damage to shipping skid or polyethylene bag(s). If bag is damaged but vessel inside is still clean and in good condition, damaged section of bag may be taped up.

2. If a vessel is removed from its bag and subsequently returned to storage, replace it in the same or similar bag and make sure bag is undamaged and that ends are sealed.

3. Store vessels on firm, level ground on the skids on which they are shipped. 4. Lift skid using a forklift truck at the center of the long side. 5. Store vessels well away from any potential source of damage (push carts, forklift trucks or other

vehicles, high temperature sources, etc) 6. Note that heads using quad seals are shipped without seals installed. Heads may be taken out

and replaced, but should be stored without the quad seal installed. 7. Storing vessels with membranes inside will not result in damage to vessels. However, any

relevant recommendations of membrane suppliers should be followed. 8. Cover vessels with a tarpaulin to reduce likelihood of accidental damage. 9. With above precautions, vessels may be stored satisfactorily indoors or outdoors. 10. If you have any questions regarding pressure vessel use or storage, please call Protec

Arisawa, Customer Service, at 760-599-4800.
