OptiClean™ S is a low pH (acidic), low foaming powder cleaner formulated

to remove silica and other inorganic scales present on MF/UF modules


or NF/RO membranes. Silica is inherently difficult to remove, but
OptiClean™ S targets and removes tough silica scale, while helping remove
other inorganic scale present. For systems where predominate inorganic
scale is not silica, it is best to use a broad spectrum low pH cleaner
(Lavasol™ 1 or OptiClean™ A) prior to OptiClean™ S.

Features / Benefits
• Readily dissolvable powdered cleaner provides efficient shipping and handling
• Phosphate-free formula to reduce negative impact on the environment
• Buffered pH to maintain optimum cleaning performance throughout cleaning cycle
• Best results when used in a program that includes either OptiClean™ B or
Lavasol™ 7
• Classified for use in membrane systems producing drinking water
(ANSI/NSF Standard 60)

Uses
• For use on reverse osmosis (RO), nanofiltration (NF), ultrafiltration (UF),
and micro-filtration (MF) membranes

OptiClean S
• Removal of silica precipitation

General Mixing & Application Instructions for OptiClean™ S


1. Inspect all cleaning system components to include CIP tank, hoses, and cartridge filters. Flush or
replace if necessary. Fill cleaning tank with RO permeate or DI water. Turn on agitator or tank
recirculation pump.

2. Slowly add OptiClean™ to cleaning tank (1 pound [0.45 kg] of OptiClean™ for every 12 gal [45 L] of
water) and mix thoroughly. The solution pH should match product specification. If necessary, adjust
pH with a membrane–approved chemical such as caustic, citric, sulfuric, or hydrochloric acid. The
solution should be heated up to 45˚C to improve cleaning efficacy.

3. Circulate solution in the same direction as the feed flow. Typical circulation times are 30-90
minutes.* PWT recommends cleaning each stage of the system separately. Maximum flow rate per
pressure vessel is 40 gpm (152 Lpm) for 8-inch elements and 10 gpm (38 Lpm) for 4-inch elements.
Maximum pressure for cleaning is 60 psig (4.2 kg/cm2).

4. In cases of heavy fouling, divert the first 10-20% of cleaning solution to drain to prevent re-
deposition of removed solids.

5. Rinse with RO permeate before returning system to service. When returning unit to service, divert
product water to drain until any residual cleaning solution has been rinsed from system.
*Depending on the nature of the fouling, a soak period may be necessary for optimum results. Please
contact PWT or your local distributor for custom cleaning procedure, or consult PWT’s Technical
Bulletin 503 for further cleaning recommendations.

ProDose XPRT™ – Scaling Prediction Software


ProDose XPRT™ uses the most accurate scaling prediction calculations available to accurately
determine effective antiscalant dosage, and cleaning chemical usage. The user can enter multiple
cases to study various operating conditions, directly enter concentrate analysis, and select the best
PWT product and dosage for the application.
