HydroLogic® HyperLogic® Membrane Cleaning Cartridge - Acid Scale Removal - 4.5in x 20in - Single Use - Formerly HL 11916

HydroLogic® HyperLogic® Membrane Cleaning Cartridge - Acid Scale Removal for Commercial RO Membranes

The HydroLogic® HyperLogic® Membrane Cleaning Cartridge is a single-use, low-pH acid cleaning cartridge formulated specifically to remove calcium carbonate, hardness scale, iron deposits, and mineral buildup from HyperLogic® Commercial Series RO membranes. Regular membrane cleaning is a critical component of any commercial RO system's standard operating procedure (SOP) — maintaining membrane permeate production rates, sustaining salt rejection performance, and extending overall membrane service life. This 4.5in × 20in cartridge (formerly HyperLogic HL 11916) integrates directly into the HyperLogic® system for a clean, contained cleaning process.

Key Features & Benefits

• Targeted acid scale removal: Low-pH formulation dissolves calcium carbonate, hardness deposits, iron, and mineral scale — the most common fouling compounds found in commercial RO membrane applications.
• Restores membrane performance: Regular cleaning removes accumulated scale that reduces permeate flow and salt rejection — restoring the membrane toward its original performance specification.
• Extends membrane service life: A consistent cleaning regiment delays the need for costly membrane replacement by preventing the buildup that causes irreversible membrane degradation.
• Single-use cartridge convenience: Cartridge-format delivery simplifies the cleaning process — no mixing, measuring, or handling of liquid acid chemicals required.
• SOP-compatible design: Engineered for integration into HyperLogic® system cleaning procedures as part of your site's standard operating procedure.

Who Should Use This

Required for commercial operators running HyperLogic® Commercial Series RO systems who have established membrane cleaning as part of their facility SOP, or who observe declining permeate flow or reduced salt rejection signaling membrane fouling.

Compatibility

For use with HyperLogic® Commercial Series RO systems. Size: 4.5in × 20in. Single use. Use when permeate flow decreases and/or salt rejection declines from normal. Refer to your RO system's operational manual for detailed cleaning procedures and handling care. Formerly HyperLogic HL 11916.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should membrane cleaning be performed?

Membrane cleaning should be performed as part of your site's standard operating procedure for HyperLogic® systems, and whenever the RO exhibits lower permeate flow or lower salt rejection than normal operating baseline.

What types of scale does this cartridge remove?

The acid cleaning cartridge targets calcium carbonate scale, general hardness deposits, iron fouling, and mineral scale buildup — the most common inorganic fouling compounds affecting commercial RO membranes.

Is this cartridge reusable?

No — this is a single-use cleaning cartridge. Dispose of properly after use following your site's chemical disposal protocols.

Is there a complementary alkaline cleaning cartridge?

Yes — HydroLogic® also offers an alkaline cleaning cartridge for removing biological fouling and organic deposits. Both acid and alkaline cleaning cartridges are recommended as part of a complete membrane maintenance program for HyperLogic® systems.
