Tools & Materials Required for Installation
Before starting the installation, ensure you have the following:

✔ 8040 RO membrane (new, sealed in original packaging)
✔ RO pressure vessel (housing for the membrane)
✔ Silicone lubricant (food-grade, for O-ring sealing)
✔ Membrane loading tool or plastic pipe (for easier insertion)
✔ RO system wrench (to open the membrane housing)

Step-by-Step 8040 RO Membrane Installation Process

Step 1: Prepare the RO System
Turn off the RO system and disconnect the power supply.
Close all water supply valves to prevent water flow.
Release pressure from the system by opening the drain valve or pressure relief valve.

Step 2: Open the Membrane Housing
Locate the pressure vessel where the membrane will be installed.
Remove the end cap of the pressure vessel using an RO system wrench.
Inspect the O-rings and seals inside the housing for any dirt or damage.

Step 3: Prepare the 8040 Membrane for Loading
Remove the new membrane from its packaging carefully.
Apply a thin layer of silicone lubricant on the O-rings at both ends of the membrane.
Wear clean gloves to avoid touching the membrane surface.

Step 4: Insert the Membrane into the Housing
Identify the feed water end and concentrate end of the membrane.
Align the central brine seal (black rubber ring) in the correct direction.
The brine seal should face against the water flow direction.
Gently push the membrane inside the pressure vessel using a membrane loading tool or a clean plastic pipe.
Ensure that the membrane is fully inserted and seated properly.

Step 5: Close the Membrane Housing
Reattach the end cap of the pressure vessel securely.
Tighten the bolts or clamps to prevent leaks.
Check that all connections are firm and properly aligned.

Step 6: Flush & Start the RO System
Open the water inlet valve slowly to allow water into the system.
Flush the membrane for 30-60 minutes to remove preservatives and debris.
Check for any leaks around the housing.
Turn on the RO system and monitor the initial water quality parameters.

Precautions & Common Mistakes to Avoid
🚫 DO NOT force the membrane into the housing; it should slide in smoothly.
🚫 DO NOT use petroleum-based lubricants on O-rings; only use food-grade silicone grease.
🚫 DO NOT skip flushing; it removes chemicals and ensures clean water output.
🚫 DO NOT touch the membrane surface with bare hands; it can lead to contamination.
✅ Always check flow direction and proper seating before sealing the housing.
