4-7.4 RO block. The RO block membranes need cleaning when the pressure difference between HP pump discharge
pressure gauge P4 (Figure 3-2) and brine discharge pressure gauge P5 (Figure 3-1) exceeds 25 psi The process,
depending on the water temperature, takes from 2 to 4 hours. These procedures are for normal cleaning operations
using seawater pump 1 for cleaning ROWPU 1 RO block and seawater pump 2 for cleaning ROWPU 2 RO block.
