- Permeate quality: TDS, conductivity, SDI, hardness
- Recovery: design vs. actual %
- Salt rejection: design vs. actual %
- Energy consumption: kWh/m³ produced
- Report: signed commissioning certificate
Operator Training & Handover
- Classroom + on-the-job training
- Startup, normal operation, shutdown
- Routine checks & log sheets
- CIP procedures & chemical safety
- Troubleshooting & alarm response
- Handover: O&M manual, as-built drawings, spare list
From Arrival to Handover
Six commissioning phases — each with clear acceptance criteria before the next phase begins.
Mobilisation & Site Survey
Team arrival, site HSE briefing, delivery inspection, and confirmation of installation readiness (foundations, power, water, drainage, access).
Mechanical & Piping Installation
Equipment positioning, alignment, grouting, membrane loading, pipework erection, and hydro-test of all pressure lines.
Electrical & Instrumentation
Power cable routing, control panel wiring, instrument mounting, loop checks, and function testing of safety interlocks.
Pre-commissioning Checks
Flushing, chemical cleaning (CIP), leak test at operating pressure, calibration of all analytical instruments, and rotation checks on all rotating equipment.
Wet Commissioning & Performance Test
System startup, dosing calibration, RO/UF performance test, sampling & analysis, and validation against the design basis.
Training & Handover
Operator training, as-built documentation, spares handover, signed commissioning certificate, and start of the warranty period.
Acceptance Criteria at Handover
| Parameter | Acceptance Criterion | Measurement Method | Reference Standard | Recorded In |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Permeate Flow | ≥ 95% of design flow at reference temperature | Calibrated flow meter | Design basis document | Commissioning report |
| Permeate Quality | ≤ design TDS / conductivity | Handheld / online conductivity meter | Design basis document | Commissioning report + lab analysis |
| Recovery | ≥ design % recovery (±2%) | Flow ratio (permeate / feed) | Mass balance sheet | Commissioning report |
| Salt Rejection | ≥ membrane datasheet minimum | Conductivity in vs. out | Membrane datasheet | Commissioning report |
| Pressure Integrity | No leaks at 1.5× operating pressure | Hydrostatic test | ASME B31.3 / vendor spec | Hydro-test certificate |
| Electrical Safety | Insulation ≥ 1 MΩ, earth continuity < 1 Ω | Megger + earth tester | IEC 60364 / local code | Electrical test report |
| Instrument Loop | All loops 4–20 mA within ±1% | Loop calibrator | ISA-51.1 | Loop check sheet |
| Chemical Dosing | Within ±5% of setpoint | Bucket test / flow meter | Dosing pump datasheet | Dosing calibration sheet |
What Makes Our Installation Different
Four principles that guide every on-site job we execute.
HSE First
Site HSE briefings, permit-to-work, PPE compliance, and full risk assessment before any work begins.
Documented at Every Step
Check sheets, hydro-test certificates, loop check sheets, and a signed commissioning report at handover.
Vendor-Trained Team
Familiar with Grundfos, ProMinent, Dow, Hydranautics, and other leading brands — installation done right first time.
Support After Handover
Warranty support, spare-parts continuity, and follow-up visits during the first months of operation.
From Delivery to First Drop
Watch the full RO desalination process in operation — from intake and pre-treatment, through high-pressure membrane stages, to post-treatment and product water storage. This is the system our field team installs, commissions, and hands over to operators across Egypt.
