Turn on the motor and run for 10 minutes. 4.2.2 Leak repair General information: Any leak from any part of the system should be corrected as soon as possible.
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics Tubing connections: 14693e - 31 Mar 03 4- 7 Routine Maintenance
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics 1. Prior to performing this maintenance on any tube fitting, release any pressure on the tubing system (i.e., turn off the pump, open a drain port, etc.). 2. Remove the red locking clip (if applicable). 3. Push the dark gray collar in towards the body of fitting (light gray). This releases the ‘gripper’ which holds the tubing in place. 4. Hold the gray collar in while gently pulling the tube away from the fitting.
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics 4.2.4 Product Recirculation Check Valve Test With Valve In RO Unit 1. Measure TDS of Product water using a handheld meter. If RO display and TDS measurement do not match within a small amount, replace check valve. If values match, check valve is functioning correctly. 2. Measure and record the Product water flow (using a flow meter or graduated cylinder and stopwatch).
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics 4.3 Millenium™ Cleaning Indications Foulants such as minerals, silt and organic substances may collect on the RO membrane surface and cause the RO membrane to foul and diminish in its function. Many of these foulants are prevented by proper selection of pretreatment equipment, while others are treatable only with more sophisticated designs. Regardless of the foulant, it is essential to clean the membrane promptly once cleaning is indicated.
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics 4.3.1 Pre-Cleaning Preparation There are two types of cleaners available, a low pH cleaner (Calcium/Iron removal) and a high pH cleaner (Silt/Organics removal). GE Osmonics provides these cleaners in liquid form. The low pH cleaner attacks mineral scale deposits such as calcium, magnesium and iron build-up, and should be used first. The high pH cleaner will remove accumulated silt and organic matter from the RO membrane.
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics CAUTION: Water to be used must be chlorine free or damage to the RO membranes may result. 4. Turn the RO pump power and inlet water valve switches off. WARNING: Label machine with appropriate warning signs such as "Do Not Use / Contains Cleaner" to prevent use of the RO until it is properly rinsed. 5. Connect the disinfect hose quick-disconnect fitting to the disinfect port on the RO. Place the open end in the cleaning solution. 6.

BIOSAN™ Post-Cleaning Rinse Procedure Using the disinfect switch, turn the RO on and run the cleaning solution to the drain until the container is empty. CAUTION: DO NOT ALLOW THE PUMP TO RUN DRY. As an alternative, the solution may be poured in the drain. 2.
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics 4.4 Millenium™ Disinfection Indications DETERMINATION OF MICROBIAL CULTURING AND DISINFECTION FREQUENCY IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OPERATING FACILITY. The following is recommended for critical applications where bacteria and endotoxins are a major concern, such as for Hemodialysis. Disinfection should occur when bacterial growth is above the limits set by the facility, or when over 200 CFU/ml (maximum AAMI standard) is detected.
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics Label the machine with appropriate warning signs such as "Do Not Use / Contains Formaldehyde" to prevent use of the RO until it is properly rinsed. 4.4.1.1 Formaldehyde Pre-Disinfection Procedure 1. Turn the Millenium™ RO off. 2. Disconnect the RO system from the dialysis machine. 3. Connect the RO product rinse line to the product port and place the open end in a drain. 4. Connect the waste line to the RO and run the other end to a drain.
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics 4. Momentarily turn the inlet water valve switch on (approximately 5 seconds), then turn it off again. This allows the water to rinse the disinfectant from the disinfect line and quick-disconnect connection. WARNING: Failure to perform this step creates a potentially dangerous situation (FORMALDEHYDE SPILLAGE) and prolongs the rinsing out of the disinfectant. 5. Disconnect the disinfect line from the quick-disconnect port. 6.
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics 11. Remove the warning signs from the RO only after a negative test confirms the absence of formaldehyde. 12. The Millenium™ RO System is now ready for use. NOTE: Success of the disinfection procedure may be ascertained by taking a water culture after completion. See the Product Water Culture Procedure in this chapter.
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics 4.4.2 Peracetic Acid/Peroxide-Based Compounds (Renalin®) Disinfection Procedure Renalin®, Minncare™, Peracidin™ and others are trade names for compounds based on Peracetic Acid and Hydrogen Peroxide compounds, and are common in dialysis facilities. The products referred to in this procedure typically have 20% hydrogen peroxide and 4% peroxacetic acid before dilution.
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics 4.4.2.1 Renalin® Pre-Disinfection Preparation CAUTION: When ‘RENALIN®’ is to be used as a disinfectant, several preparatory steps are required by GE Osmonics as well as the membrane manufacturer. Failure to comply with these instructions, which incorporate instructions from the membrane manufacturer, will jeopardize the system performance and warranty. a. The system must be free of all incompatible materials. b. Clean the membranes with an acid such as 0.1% HCl or 0.
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics 4.4.2.2 Renalin® Disinfection and Dwell Time 1. Verify that the operate/flush valve is in the OPERATE position. 2. Use the disinfect switch to circulate the solution through the system for five minutes. After three minutes of circulation, test the product line for the presence of disinfectant. Continue circulating until a positive test is achieved. CAUTION: Do not allow the solution temperature to climb above 25°C during this step.
Millenium™ RO System by GE Osmonics The operate/flush valve may need to be rotated partially closed, (towards the operate position) if the pump makes excessive noise. 6. Rotate the operate/flush valve to the operate position. 7. Turn the RO pump power switch off for 1 minute. Turn the RO pump switch on for 2-3 minutes.
