RO Membrane is one of the most vital parts of the RO Plant. RO Membranes are known as the “Heart of the RO Plant” that does all the work. The filters remove the impurities and other substances that may damage the RO membrane from water. The removal of contaminants is done when the water is sent through the semi-permeable membrane which traps the smaller, harder-to-remove dissolved solid particles through the process of Reverse Osmosis. The main advantage of an RO Membrane is that almost no additional substances need to be added and can achieve one's goal with limited energy costs. RO Membrane price is cost-effective. If the membranes are not properly maintained, they quickly become contaminated with severe consequences for the process.

What can damage the RO membrane?

The main causes for the damage of RO membranes are - 

Fouling - impurities can deposit on the membranes, especially during a standstill. Microbiological growth on the membranes, pre-treatment failure, etc can also cause the RO membranes to become dirty. 

Scaling - the precipitation of poorly soluble chemicals on the membrane surface by oversaturation. 

Membrane damage - when chemicals react with the membrane and cause damage to it.

Consequences of Contamination of RO Membranes

Contaminated RO membranes lead to various problems: 
• Lower permeate flow 
• Lower salt discharge 
• Lower-quality water
• Increased differential pressure 
• Increased costs
• Shorter service life of the RO membranes.

How to know if RO Membrane needs replacing?

The changing time of RO Water Membranes depends upon the above factors. If the water has a very high level of impurities, and a high TDS level, then the RO Membrane would need to be replaced quite frequently. Some factors are needed to be considered before changing the RO membrane –
• The hardness of the water or TDS level.
• The amount of water used in purifying the water. 
• Level of impurities and contaminants present in the water. 

How often should the RO membrane be replaced?

The RO Membrane on average should be replaced every 3-5 years. If it is still producing good quality water then may be able to keep longer than five years. RO Membrane price is very cost-effective and can be easily changed.
If RO Membrane is never cleaned, then the lifespan of RO membrane may get reduced. If the water has a sour taste or certain odor, it is time to go for a maintenance check.
