When removing the filter element of the security filter, there is yellow, viscous substance present. The filter element of the security filter is immersed in a sodium hydroxide solution, causing the solution to turn reddish-brown. Excuse me, what’s the likelihood of a blockage?
It depends on what material your filter element is made of
If the filter element is soaked in a sodium hydroxide solution, it indicates that the element is made of metal; there is a yellow, viscous substance present, which is likely due to the growth of microorganisms. I’m not sure what purpose this filter is being used for. If the previous filtration stage does not meet the required standards, and the flow rate of the medium inside the security filter is too slow, then the red-brown color of the solution is probably caused by substances such as iron oxide
There is no mechanical filter. Only a strainer filter
Will these two flocculants dissolve in strong alkali?
Ours did the same thing – it got clogged in just one day. There was no visible change in its appearance, and no reason could be identified
Let me answer this question: If the equipment has been out of use for a while and the water in the pipes was not drained earlier. This leads to the growth of bacteria and an abundance of impurities. The filter element will become clogged very quickly after the device is turned on.
